It's not like you're doing anything else with your life.
That may have been my favorite Project Runway finale EVER. I loved all of the finalists, I loved the collections like crazy, I even loved the goddamn winner.
BIDDELL!
\o/
And you know, I could give him shit for whipping the damn collection together at the last minute, but that collection was faaaaabulous. I adored every piece in it, particularly that black coat with the zipper which I would probably sell my right arm to have even though I have absolutely nowhere to wear it. Oh, and that buckskin coat, homiGOD. I loved that he was inspired from Saturday morning cartoons, not the crappy ones that they have now but the real good shit from the '80s and '90s, and how it was totally some ass-kicking chick brigade. I love that he's an ass, I love that for all that he was THE ass, he was still a nice guy underneath it all. I love that Lucian burst into tears on the runway and the one who came over to hug him was freaking BIDDELL. I loved all the pictures of wee fat Biddell, and ... and ... *flails*
I mean, I love Lucian to pieces, but BIDDELL. Oh, man, that was awesome.
And Lucian! Um, I may have cried when he cried. He was just so great, because he did amazing work and put tons of effort into it and focused on his work, and the fact that he managed to make Rita CRY meant so much to him. Oh, and I may have wanted him to jump the blonde curly-haired guy in the front row at the fashion show.
... what? This is what Lucian does to me, okay? Biddell, Stephen, Nick Verreos, people passing him on the street, trees, mailboxes, I DON'T CARE. The man has sexual chemistry with everything.
MG! Oh, wee MG. I love you and your adorable dorky glasses and I could listen to you talk in that accent FOREVER. And the judges may have dumped on your collection a bit but I liked it just the way it was. (Then again, I'm a sucker for purple clothes, so ... *grabbyhands*)
Seriously, guys, if you're into Project Runway at all you should totally download this season of Project Runway Canada. That was a great ride. It might be blasphemy, but it might even be my favorite PR season ever.
Yeah, I said it. I LOVE YOU, TIM GUNN.
BIDDELL!

I loved Biddell cause he so struck me as the type that actually was quite sensitive, but he's supposed to be 'punk' and 'hip' that he wasn't supposed to be sensitive in his mind ... so he acted out - and therefore occasionally looked like an ass.
So the hug didn't surprise me because ... he got it. He knew 100% why Lucien was crying - cause it was the same reason he was laughing. The 'oh my god they really liked it, I actually did it', sensitive side getting control
And MG ... god. When I saw she had put those glasses on her models, it was such a 'this is who I am, take it or leave it' move that it was just awesome. I think the judges were wrong on the one thing they were most concerned about - that she wouldn't do that kind of design again cause it was different than what she was normally doing - and that opinion is all down to those glasses to be honest.
(however, I still think Biddell's collection was the most awesome. If only because Lucians ... well, abstractly I can look at it and go 'ok, that is cool and I can see people grabbing it up', but personally I looked at it and went 'umm ... those are like my grandma's doilies'. heh. I'm just not a crochet person.
Oh, and for the record?
The mentor on Project Runway Canada looks much better without the mustache. (he was shilling things on the shopping channel up here the other day. it was a bit of a surprise. heh.)

That hug just KILLED me. I was just kind of mildly slashing them before, and now it's like, "HOLY CRAP WHAT THE FUCK DUDES." Heeeeee.
I loved all three collections -- they were just such strong examples of all three designers' unique visions -- but Lucian's was so pretty and hopeful (Rita said that and I was like, "YES") and feminine and light. And yet at the same time I don't think I could wear any of it. Own it, put it on a mannequin in my living room and swoon over it daily, yes, but STILL.
But Biddell's ... oh, man, I want to put on any one of those outfits and go out and fight crime unrealistically. Te more I watch, the more I fall in love with the green one with the little shorts. :)
no subject
Biddell's ... well, if I could actually pull it off, I would wear it in a heart beat. And omg that leather jacket with the basketweave I would so ... not be able to afford, but ... yeah. (though not in white. heh.)
The thing for the mustache for me is not so much the porn insanity, but ... he looks very much like the faded memories of one of my teachers when I was growing up, and therefore the porn stache + that memory just totally freaks me.
And the hug was cute. As was the moment you posted when Biddell is peering over Lucian's shoulder doing that little face, and you know internally he's going 'come on, laugh' to him, and you know that the expression on Biddell's face means he is totally absolutely convinced Lucian is going to win and is just grinning at him.
Definitely liked this version of Project Runway though. However, I am wondering who we had to maim to get Iman to come up to Canada ...
