Or maybe down to the underwire. Two booted off tonight? Somehow, it's time to decide which 3 of the 5 get judged at Fashion Week. Pop the popcorn & place your bets! Who will be the judges' pets?

Hey, that rhymes. So how about some (fractured) haiku?

Project Runway finish...
Time to show at Fashion Week.
Who will make it work?

Cool

I didn't know two were getting the boot tonight. I'll be able to watch it-can't wait.

I'm not exactly sure how they're going to handle the eliminations now. Heidi did the "one or more of you could go" hint in the preview. Thurs. the 11th is "Finale Part I," and Thurs. the 18th is "Finale Part II." If it's down to only 3 designers by part 1 of the finale, then 2 have to go tonight? We will see...

I've gotten to like Dimitri and I'm so afraid that he will mess up and make something awful. He never has yet so I'm thinking at least he and Christopher will make it to finals. With no Elena though will it be a boring show?

My favorite part of the show was Chris's spider on his lapel. look real nice like Shawkl makes. I think manly brooches would be a nice option to boutonnieres. (misspelled)

OK Now having watched - of all the upcoming collections I am curious to see the one belonging to the man who wears a dress. I think his should be most interesting. (Can't remember his name this a.m. and he has been a QUIET one except for his clothing.)

I think the right one went home, I didn't like her dress at all. As the pink gingham shirt, what was with the tie?

I am really excited for Dimitri...

and I know quiltbea... Tim sure can wear some of the most peculiar clothing together... Reminds me of the Vocational Sewing instructor I had for 2 years... She chose her husbands clothes every morning.. he was the Dean of the school.. You should have seen what he came sporting in each morning. lol

I am curious as to what Melissa is going to put together... and with 1 more going home next week, it just might be her..

I would like to see all 3 men on the final Runway...

I got home late & missed the first half hour. Have to watch it later. But I don't think anyone really nailed "avant-garde" this time or made a WOW outfit. Lots of looks went down the runway that said, "I'm confused."

I knew right away they weren't going to send 2 home, as soon as the runway part ended & the judges said they were all good (huh??). Sonjia's "fallen green napkin" dress was pretty bad. (I had that exact thought before the judges said it -- "What is that piece of fabric that fell & got hung up on her chest?") But if they were basing the judging on past weeks, then Sonjia or Melissa or even Fabio could have gone last night.

Chris's was a Snow White evil queen theater costume, Dmitry's was a business suit that should have come with a whip, Fabio's was what happens to black sheer curtains in a house full of cats (with a jacket that would make even skinny b*tts look big), Melissa found hers in the basement dress-up trunk, and Sonjia's had pieces stuck to it with static cling. Other than that, I loved the show, LOL!!

Next week -- another possible elimination?

I was underwhelmed last night too. I love the avant garde challenges and was hoping for a lot more WOW and less What???.

I do like it when the judging panel is not in agreement so that was entertaining to see. And, I really think that Heidi needs a fashion intervention. Both of her dresses were awful, especially the one at panel.

Dmitry is my favorite going into the finale... which means he will be gone next week. LOL

I only saw the one when she was judging, and my first thought was, "Which one of the Brady Bunch girls did she get that from? Marcia, Jan, Cindy, or maybe Carol?"

Did anyone else wish that Elena would have still been around last night? Would have been interesting to see how she handled avant-garde.

I would have liked to have seen Elena's outfit for this challenge... Bet she might would have won!

When i think of Avant Garde, I think of Christian Soriano's gown with the 2 foot high ruff around the neck. Now he knew what to do. There was another one on that show that had his own show for a season...Chris? somebody that did Vegas show girl outfits...they knew avant garde for sure! Seems to me (my imagination?) that someone on this show said they didn't know what it was? Oh the green dress...no words...Michael Kors' comments...he doesn't like wrinkly old ladie's backs with see thru!!!!!hahahahaa. I'm getting worried about Heidi's taste....she liked the green dress?????
