Fashion Star 04/19/2013

Sorry guys, Friday was all about them catching the kid from the Boston bombings, and Saturday was crazy busy, so I'm just getting around to watching Friday's episode now!!!

I'm kind of bummed about another team challenge...I know it's more industry-realistic, but it doesn't show their personal abilities as well.  Well, I guess it does, but...I dunno I'm still a little bummed about it.

So tonight's challenge was a Night Out on the Town with the Fiat and doing a photoshoot.  Should be fun, I'm excited!!

Daniel's Dress
Express
Daniel had the right idea--he wanted his dress to feel like the car--fast, sexy.  I'm excited to see what he and Johana come up with.

Sylvia's idea for leather is really great too--and so spot-on with what's been on the runways this season too.  I'm excited for hers and Cassandra's look this week too!!

Hunter's Dress
Macy's
I'm worried that Hunter's idea is going to be too couture and it won't sell, though.  I guess I'll have to watch to see where it ends up, just because this idea of taking inspiration from the Met Ball....seems a little much maybe.  But, we'll see!!  As the episode progresses, her design definitely ended up not evening, not night on the town...so my original concern is now out the window, and now it's the opposite.  Is this the Hunter that I've grown to love??  Because I'm not excited about it anymore....and she's blaming a lot of it on JesseRay and Garrett, which
also makes me bummed, because it feels like it's more her fault than anyone else's right now.  I dunno.  This episode is definitely making me cling to my tv!

JesseRay & Garrett's Pant
Express
Also, fyi, in case it wasn't obvious to you guys, I write my blog while watching the episode, not after it's over.  It feels more like you're watching it with me as you read it, I feel like.

Anyway, so the photos and the runway show this week was exciting.

Jessica's team:

LOVE love love JesseRay and Garrett's pant!  I am so sad that all these looks are so cute, since I'm so stinking short and I can't wear them!!  Hunter's dresses were super cute, but not really eveningwear...I loved the print she chose though.
JesseRay & Garrett's Blouse
Express
Macy's ultimately backed out for the purpose of giving JesseRay and Garrett
the chance at having
their designs in all three stores, which was super super cool of Macy's--I'm way happy that they did that!!  Hunter's dress was bought by Macy's, but she said the same thing I did about it being very much not an eveningwear dress.   She didn't do the challenge, which is never good...

John's team:

Sylvia's Jacket and Skirt
Express
I love Sylia's jacket, but the skirt I felt like was a little shapeless.  But the
leather is perfect--right on for this season!!  Cassandra's top was so cute in the back, and the wrap was cute, but I didn't like it with the maxi skirt as much, the two individually were great but I wasn't a fan of them together.  Express went nuts with Sylvia's designs and just went all out with their bid,
which I wasn't surprised by at all.  Cassandra didn't get bid on, which was a huge bummer for her.  I kind of wonder if she's going to go home
Johana's Dress
Macy's
tonight....guess I'll find out soon!

Nicole's team:

Daniel's dresses were so hot I was so impressed with him this week.  He kept it simple but really showed his artistic-ness with the back of the dress.  I hated Johana's scuba dress though.  It was so hideous!!!  I mean I can see the red lace maybe selling, but that black and red wasn't hot at all. 
Macy's ended up buying Johana's dress, so good for her, but I still don't like it.  I know she got bought, but I still wonder if she should go home.  No...it'll probably be Cassandra, which is sad cuz I liked her.
Express went a little crazy on Daniel's dress too, which was awesome!!!  Sparked a bidding war between them and Saks, which was awesome!  I want his dress--so cute!  And it's now at Express which is very, very tempting....I really wish they were selling this stuff in-store so I could try it on.  But I still want it.  And Sylvia's jacket.  I really want Sylvia's jacket!!  Ahh!!!  Such a great week this week!

Johana and Daniel won the Fiat car which was so so so great for them!!  So exciting!  But they cut right to who was put up for elimination, which was like YAY oh nevermind sad face.  Lol.  Cassandra went up, and so did Johana.  The two I was wondering about.  I'm guessing Cassandra will go home, but I hope it's Johana. 

Express sent Johana home, which was sort of funny in a way, since she just won a car, but I definitely think she should have gone home over Cassandra.  Out of all of her designs, I've only liked...I think one of them, if I remember right?  So I definitely think out of the two, it was time for Johana to go home. 

Today's episode was crazy good, but I'm afraid for next week.  I officially like everyone left right now, and I don't want any of them to go home!  But, that said, the designs should rock socks next week, that's for sure!
