Welcome to Season 6 of Project Runway on Lifetime.
Now in Los Angeles, the designers are working out of FIDM (Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising) located downtown.
The first challenge: Create a red carpet look that demonstrates innovation and a unique point of view.
Use the Macy's accessories wall.
Guest Judge is actress, musician, and designer Lindsay Lohan. Really? I didn't think she was anything but tabloid trash.
Althea Harper
I don't think it flatters the model at all. I also don't think the execution is great. Doesn't leave much of an impression, and neither does she.
Ari Fish
She's already trying Tim's patience. Here are your model's measurements. Ari: "Oh, she's got big feet like me!" Tim: "Yeah" (subtext: you crazy bitch)
She doesn't sketch, she "meditates on it" apparently while in a headstand. sigh. She wants to make a "weird, bulbous, hexagonal tessellation forms." psycho.
She's wearing a poncho designed by Blayne.
On my notepad, I just wrote WTF? I think Michael's "disco soccer ball" description was apt.
Carol Hannah Whitfield
This idiot is going to be the notable quotable this season - I can smell it.
"I'm blond and from the South, people usually don't attach those sort of things to, like, intelligence and....I lost my train of thought"
Reminds me of something Penelope Cruz would wear/has worn on the carpet crossed with Belle's dress from Beauty and the Beast. I like the back better than the front.
Christopher Straub
Didn't go to school. Doesn't know sewing terms. Apparently, doesn't matter.
I love it. I wish the waist was more defined. Would be unflattering on any but the skinniest waists.
Epperson
That's right. Epperson.
Didn't read well on TV. Too dark to see detail. It's meh.
Gordana Gehlhausen
Uli's lumberjack cousin.
I don't like it. Looks like a crappy prom dress.
Irina Shabayeva
The chick who designs everything for her purse dog muse.
Pretty, but SUPER derivative. Looks like a cross between Chloe and Monique Lhuillier.
Johnny Sakalis
I'm a recovering tweaker. Boo hoo.
He said of sucking it up and getting down to business: "I've just got to swallow it down." I'm not sure that's an expression, unless we're talking about balloons of heroin...
I thought it was crap. I don't know why the judges were into it. Looks shapeless and unflattering from the front and overexposed on the back.
Logan Neitzal
"I'm a guy's guy," says the pretty boy sitting next to the cholo tweaker. *scratches head*
Boring. Sloppy.
Louise Black
Vintage time.
Bad hem. Bad colors. Boring and typical.
Malvin Vien
Unattractive. I do not feel treasured.
Mitchell Hall
Looks like an Anne Bancroft nightie or a costume from Dune. Unfortunate. Here's a way to spin it - say it's for the AVN red carpet. Totally porn star worthy. No undies though.
Nicolas Putvinski
The feather prince. Who's the king? Big Bird?
Qristyl Frazier
I HATE your name. I refuse to write Qristyl over and over. Henceforth, I shall call you Q.
The front looks like something Lilly Pulitzer would vomit. The back is good, but it does not balance the heinousity of the front.
Ra'mon-Lawrence Coleman
I would much rather design than be a neurosurgeon.
I like it fine, but the color and the style are very safe and Jessica McClintock worthy.
Shirin Askari
Sweet in Farsi
I liked it (the dress). Not the shrug. The back was better than the front (broken record).

MOMOLU SMASH!!!
This is completely misleading and false advertising to those who do not understand medicine. It is an insult to those who have completed their residency and finished their certification to call him a neurosurgeon. I would even say it is an insult to one's intelligence. Many aspire; few accomplish. There's a huge amount of personal sacrifice one has to cede to be called a medical physician, even more to be a neurosurgeon. It is undeserved credit.

I honestly doubt many took him seriously with the ridiculous level of self-aggrandizement that generally goes on among reality show contestants. I can assure you that my paraphrase was firmly tongue in cheek - like most of my blog.
He mentioned almost finishing med school (which is a far sight from being a neurosurgeon) - but what I can find of his sketchy bio, I'm not sure he finished pre-med before veering onto his design path. Maybe being driven (to the point of delusion) means that you approach every situation as though success is a given. If only I wasn't such a realist.
