Sweet P got shafted!
In a way, she kinda did. I mean, don't get me wrong, she completely bombed with that last dress. It didn't look peacocky in any way, shape, or form (except for maybe the color, but anyway):

I mean, Bryant Park this is not. (But I heard she actually had a really good show during Fashion Week last week, so all may not be lost.) I was rooting for Sweet P, but I think even she had an idea that she wouldn't be able to make it all the way. But the fact that they kept saying two people would go when they kept both Chris and Rami was a little effed up, in my opinion. (I'll get to those two in a minute.)
So. Christian. You and I need to have a talk. We know you're talented and have an ego the size of the Milky Way. We get it. But do you always have the do the same skinny pants on every. Single. Outfit? Jesus.

Don't get me wrong, it's still fierce... just. I don't want a kid winning this kind of competition. It makes me feel old, okay?
Rami, Rami, Rami. Why do you hurt us so by not thinking outside the box? The color and shape is great, but do we have to be the millionth person to mention the D-word?

Can you imagine 11 more of these coming down the runway in Bryant Park? Seriously dude? You might want to consider interior design instead.
I was on Team Chris for a long time. I was okay with him being really over the top, because at least it's something different from the hardcore folks on the runway. And I was happy when they brought him back into the competition. The picture he chose at the museum was pretty, but I don't think he needed to go this big, especially when it copied the couture challenge:

I think if he would've kept the dress and used the gray for a shawl or a jacket of some kind it would've worked better. But at the same time, I think it's cool to have couture in the competition. It's an element of fashion that is way out there.
And Jillian. I love how during the episode, they concentrated on the fact that she was so stressed out at the end when the judges almost picked her to win the challenge. She does make great jackets, I can't lie:

Honestly, I really like the shoes, too, come to think of it.
