Season 6 in El Lay

They're baaaaaaaaaaackkkk. The new season is in LA, which is omg, like totally different, but Heidi, Tim and crew are still there, so phew! No need to panic!

In the beginning it's just too tricky to tell who is who. We have to rely on online bios and PR editing. We do know there's a lot of young'uns and an older dreadlocked guy. There's a guy who had to battle a meth addiction and a guy who thought Ramon needed an apostrophe. Oh, and here's our crazy gal. Hmmm she kinda looks like Samantha Ronson. Who's our celebrity judge again? Oh yeah, LiLo. Hmmm hope that doesn't work against her.....

No crazy challenge to start out with. $200 and they are off. I have to tell you, I was halfway paying attention, so much Heidi and Tim and fabric was overloading my brain after the all-star challenge. Tim has to console one of the designers. Sweetie, if the stress of episode 1 is killing you, just wait. You're still working with fabric! Be thankful.

So, somehow, through the dreads and crystal meth and time restraints the designers make it to the runway. Along the way they learned a lot about time constraints and lying models.


Althea's design
Safe dress, but looks well made


Ari Fish
I think I've been watching PR for too long. If this had been in a challenge to make something out of random items, it would have done much better. Too bad it was supposed to be "Red Carpet" fashion.




Carol "I'mnotdumbandblondIswear" Hannah
I didn't hate this design. I didn't like how low on the chest it runs, but I do like the concept and the styling


Christopher "No formal training" aka The First Winner
Winning design. Carrie Bradshaw wore a similar type dress one time.




Epperson
Pretty interesting concept, and I think the color really works





Gordana
ugh. geometry? just ugh.



Irina
Super sexy glam. Doesn't seem that original, but it's deffo red carpet worthy.



Johnny
Very sexy dress



The back is what gives it that wow factor



The judges would have liked this in a different color like navy blue or black, but I actually like this red

Logan
Forgettable



Louise
Looks very put together. She said the color scheme wasn't what she was originally going for. I think it's better that the two tones are muted together.




Malvin
Ugh. This should have been in the bottom



Mitchell and his The Emperor Has No Clothes dress



Nicolas
I wouldn't call this a red carpet dress, but it's cute



Qristyl
Wait, Kenley's back?




Ra'mon
Heidi liked this one because it looked expensive



Shirin
Hmm. I think Kara Saun did a similar style dress one challenge complete with matching cape too


Overall a nice showing, but no one stands out yet. I think ftw I would have gone with Johnny, just because it seemed more fun and the person wearing it on the red carpet could get the money shot with the back to the camera. I do think that the winner was a good choice too, so I'm not disappointed. I can't wait to see how these kids do with a challenge challenge with non-fabric items, that's what has made this show famous.
