Queena Irina!

That's right, I re-named her. Congratulations to Queena Irina as well as Ashley, who took down the season-long leader in our league tonight! Queena Irina wins $100,000 while Ashley wins $95. Eh...but I guess something's better than nothing, right?! Here are our two winners:

Ashley, in all her pride & glory:


and Queena Irina with her armored model:

Did you agree with the judges that Irina deserved to win??

And of course, here is a picture of the crazy-wild time had by some of your fellow project runway fantasy leaguers tonight at Crew Bar:



The bar had a deal that if you chose the winner you got a free drink (you got a picture of your pick)... so I suppose Kirsti here was a winner tonight as well!

Here are everyone's total scores from the season:

32 points: Ashley
19 points: Leah
16 points: Scott, Cheryl, Sue
20 points: Dana R.
12 points: Lisa, Sharon, Emily
10 points: Shana
8 points: Nina, Kathleen
5 points: Kirsti
4 points: Dana A.
-1 point: Tyler

Alright, well, that's it gang. Hope you enjoyed yourselves. Thanks for playing!!

Finale Plans!

Alright so the finale is showing this coming Thursday, November 19th. For those of you who want to watch together, let's meet up at Crew - 4804 N. Broadway:

Apparently it's the world's greatest bar?! Very exciting!

I'll be there at 8:00 for a pre-show drink... hope to see you there!

This Is It!! (Well, this is Almost it!)

Alright party people, we have placed our final bets!! And the same rules apply tonight as with every other show: If the person you chose tonight wins, you'll get +3. If they're auf'ed (and obviously two people will be auf'ed), it's -3. And, if the overall winner you chose from Day 1 takes the cake, you get 10 extra points.

I'm sorry to say that the reality here is that there are really only 2 people in this league who could possibly win- Ashley or Leah. So while I will list all of our bets for tonight (and for the competitive peeps among us will post our scores after the finale,) our +/- 3 doesn't mean a whole lot at this point! Womp womp womp... sorry gang! But- hopefully we all had some fun watching & betting along the way!

Here are our finale picks:

All for Althea: Dana A., Kirsti, Kathleen & Emily

Carol Hannah's Fannas: Lisa, Shana, Leah & Nina

Meana Irina's Teama: Scott, Cheryl, Ashley, Sue, Sharon & Dana R.


Enjoy the 2nd to last show!!

And Then There Were Three

Whoa! Did you guys realize that this was the last challenge?? I had no idea! But, I think we all knew which 3 people would be showing in fashion week, so I'm glad they went ahead and auf'ed these two:





Christopher, poor guy. Did he think we would forget that he already made this outfit? Except that the last time he made it there were contrasting colors making it beautiful and unique? Here is the same design from a few challenges back:




Fuller skirt, bold colors... much more interesting than the dress inspired by rocks, ya know?







Not to mention there was also the ol' disco pumpkin we saw earlier this season. Somebody loves flowy, halter tops, no? So sorry Christopher, you seem like a nice guy, but your lack of creativity got you in the end...






Also auf'ed this week: Gordana. Her simple style kept her 'in' week after week, and while this final dress was very pretty, it, like many of her other designs, lacked the wow-factor. I'm glad she was able to create this dress that so defined her, but it just wasn't quite enough to take the cake. And personally, I thought it looked like a vagina. (Am I wrong??)


And thus, the following 3 lucky ladies below will be showing in fashion week! (I've noted which of us voted for them to be our overall winner...)

Althea: Chosen by Scott S. who dropped out of the league- sucker! ;)

Carol Hannah: Chosen by Leah

Irina: Chosen by Ashley & Dana R.

So, those of you leaguers who chose one of the final 3 ladies have earned an extra 5 points since your pick made it to Bryant Park. If your designer wins the whole thing, you'll get 10 extra points!

Since there was no winner this week everyone just got the usual +1 point if your person stayed in. Or if the person you chose was auf'ed, you got -3, but I won't name any names. Here are our scores:

22 points: Leah
19 points: Ashley
17 points: Dana R.
15 points: Lisa, Emily
13 points: Shana, Scott, Cheryl, Sue
11 points: Nina, Kathleen
9 points: Sharon
8 points: Kirsti
7 points: Dana A.
-1 point: Tyler

It seems that we've got just one pick left- the winner! I've tried looking online to find the date of the finale but haven't had much luck yet. I'm guessing next week we'll just watch them create their lines/Tim visit them at home, and the following week will be the finale? Let me know if you guys come across anything more definitive. Be sure to check back, as I'll post anything I find, as well as plans for watching together!!
