PR: Michael, Kristin, A.J.

Clawing and grasping toward the finish line.


Kittens, we're just gonna do this rapid-fire. Strap yourselves in.

Michael:

We know we keep saying this and we promise next week we'll come up with something better, but for now, this will have to suffice:

Yikes.

We stared at this for 10 minutes trying to come up with a witty description and we can't. It's just basic 1992 slutwear.

Seriously, the whole thing from the hair right down to the skin-tight micro-mini makes her look like she's starring in an En Vogue video.


And that back! Disgraceful. Tacky, tacky, tacky.

Tim Gunn's Workroom:


Kristin:

We actually kinda liked this.

She cited Junya Watanabe and Comme des Garçons as major inspirations and you can see it here in her work.

Our only real quibble is with the proportions on the skirt. It looks too big and heavy.



Aside from that, it's a keeper. Hopefully she'll be able to turn out some more basic looks because the judges only go so far in their praise of this kind of stuff. They want "cover of Marie Claire" fashion and that's pretty much the definition of "middle of the road."

Tim Gunn's Workroom:


A. J.:

Another look that's quite obviously heavily inspired by another designer's work. This time, it's Heatherette-lite.

It's certainly well done for this sort of thing.

Although the tulle could have been slightly neater on the bottom. That flyaway tulle doesn't look deliberate to us.


But this is A.J.'s style and he does it well. What he needs to do is prove that this isn't the only thing he can do. Clubwear every week is just gonna piss the judges off.

And we're done for Episode 1! Peace out, girl scouts!
