"Project Runway All Stars" Episode 104: There's Always Room For Gelato

On this week's All Stars, the designers have only six hours to design a look around a flavor of gelato.

The most entertaining part of this episode was watching Michael's face run the gamut of shocked, from "I Need a Moment" shocked, to "Taylor-Swift" shocked. It was actually quite endearing.

Because the designers only had six hours from start to runway (the shortest challenge in the show's history), the tension was kicked up a notch. The fact that Diane Von Furstenburg was a judge added to the sense of urgency. And because of the time constraints, I'm going to grudgingly overlook such horrific moments as "Where's my glue gun?" and "I'm going to have to sew the model in to the design." *shudder*

Unfortunately, mentor Joanna Coles just isn't working for me, and frankly, I don't think she's necessary. She was ridiculous this episode, as she scolded the designers with "How can you have a fashion moment if you stay with what you're comfortable with?" Excuse me, dumbass, they have six hours! Do you really expect them to go out on a limb?

On the plus side, there was this :

So how did the designers do? Below and on the following pages you can see the final designs and how they fared.

Anthony Williams

Flavor: Green Tea. Not bad considering the time constraints. Anthony has been flying under the radar, but he could be around near the end.

April Johnson

Flavor: Blueberry. The Losing Design. April flubbed with this (especially the back), but she didn't deserve to leave.
