But, much like the volcanic ash that has been falling in Europe from the eruption in Iceland, the tears for Emilio flowed on and on and Heidi Klum had to give her famous “aufedersein” when the show was over. Our poor boy Emilio took second place, but it was a well deserved spot to be. Our second favorite, Seth Aaron, was the ultimate winner, which still managed to make us happy.
The runway show in general at Bryant Park was great, best one so far in my opinion, minus Michael Kors in Secret Service shades and a random appearance of Raven-Symone. My only thought was that she was working on something with Lifetime and needed a short cameo appearance. The guest judge for the finale was Faith Hill, which made me question the results. Who is she to judge fashion? And really what does she do, I haven't hear anything from her in years and I'm really not a big fan of what she has put out. But, she looked great last night and I'm sure did ok as a judge.
But back to the show and our winner. What he described as "Kick-ass” German-Russian military inspired clothes were really a mix of great patterns with a truly rock n' roll edge. I loved it. His red dress with leather cutouts was standout. The structured look of pieces including his pant suit felt more sophisticated than restrictive, especially when he paired pieces like the silk parachute blouse or the polka dot and tweed with striped legging. I also loved the yellow plaid coat and separately how he used that same plaid pattern with patent leather on the inseam for fitted pants. I didn’t go for the purple people-eater dress — too poofy in too many places and way too fitted on that poor models butt. Either way, he's the winner and he had my vote. What I'm sad about is that I missed the reunion show... it started into what looked like the models of the runway, or whatever the show is about the models that usually follows the show, so I turned it off to get into bed. Now I'm hearing the reunion show was better than the actual finale... bummer.
