Fashion Star 04/26/2013

8 weeks in already!  Can you believe it?!  Today's challenge is to make 4 garments: 1 for a women in two colors, and 1 for a man in two colors!  Such a fun, challenging day!  Woo!

So, after Hunter's blip last week, and now her frustration with this week's challenge, I'm starting to second guess myself.  I've been rooting her on from the very beginning, but Daniel is growing so much since the beginning.  His designs are so great lately, and I'm starting to wonder if maybe it'll be Daniel that ends up winning!  We shall see, I guess...

I'm having a really hard time figuring out who is going to go home tonight.  Every single person left is really really talented, and I'm really nervous.  I don't want anybody to go home!!!

John's Team:

Cassandra's Pant
Express

Cassandra's pant was really cute--boyish, like her, sorta punk rock-ish.  Really cute.  Not a fan of Sylvia's top on either the man or the woman.  Huge huge huge bummer.  I wonder if she's going home today!!!  So sad, cuz she's had some really really great designs in the past.  Today was a bad day for her.

Macy's bought Cassandra's woman's pant, and Express bought her men's pant,

which I'm super happy about, because she definitely had some cute designs.

Nobody bought Sylvia's men's polo shirt, but Saks did buy her women's top.  I'm surprised, honestly, because I didn't like either of them, and I was really disappointing in her designs, but I am happy she got bought though.

Nicole's Team:

Silvia's Top
Saks

Daniel is the only one left.  I loved his designs, and Express did too!  They bought his men's jacket, and his women's romper, which was so so so awesome for him!!!  And, he sold the most out of everyone so far, hitting $800,000.00!!!  Nuts!!!  So awesome, I'm so happy for him!

Jessica's Team:

Daniel's Jacket
Express

Hunter's women's jacket was...okay....but I wasn't a huge fan.  The men's jacket was a tad better, but I still wasn't a huge fan.  I loved JesseRay and Garrett's dress, in fact I might have to buy it (assuming it gets bought, which I'm sure it will), but the jacket was only alright for me.  I see why this was a challenge for these teams.

JesseRay and Garrett men's jacket didn't get an offer, which was a bummer, but the dress had a huge bidding war between all three of the retailers!!  So exciting!!!  Express bowed out, and they had to choose between Macy's and Sak's.  They chose to go with Macy's, to pay her back for what she did for
them last week.  So exciting!!!  Go JesseRay and Garrett!!!

Daniel's Romper
Express

Hunter's men's jacket didn't get any offers, and neither did her women's jacket.  I'm not surprised.  I'm guessing she and Silvia go up for elimination tonight....but I'm honestly hoping Silvia goes home, not Hunter.  Well.....I wish neither of them did, but there's no question that someone has to.

Nicole said it best "at this point, it's like....everyone's great, so..."  Yeah.  truth.  Hunter and Silvia went up for elimination, as I predicted.  Poor poor Express always has to be the bad guy.  She sent Silvia home, which was ultimately what I was hoping for, but it doesn't stop it from being soooooo sucky.  She's awesome, and I wasn't ready for her to go home.

That said, Hunter better bring it in the next episode.  She's been slipping.  I'm really excited to see what next week brings as far as designs, though!!
