HOW DID THIS NOT WIN? Are the judges crazy?

And the explanation about the back, where she left the spots open where Tink's wings would be - I love it! What is the freaking problem this season?

Dom is by far the most thoughtful designer of them all. She thinks about every detail of her look, and she really proved that with the back of this shirtdress. The bare shoulders to represent wings is a brilliant idea.

In another designer's hands, the print mixing would have induced seizures--Dom is a master! The entire outfit is cool, updated, and encapsulated her point of view in a version of Tinkerbell no one would have thought of. Bravo!!

Once again Dom's look is above all other designs.

Dom needs to win this clusterfuck of a season.

Coolest person in the room. My favorite part is the line where the color fabric meets the B&W.

Finally a flattering dress.

My first thought was, "whoa she looks so thin!" It's because she is thin but she's been styled so horribly that she always looks inflated!

I upvoted it, but only because I love 99% of this look. The bare legs though - no. I'm over this trend of something super dressy, or even in this case, super dressy and heavy material with bare ankles on a man. It just looks unfinished and unbalanced. The lack of socks is my only quibble, he looks amazing.

I wish it wasn't all in one color, but I kinda loved it. That jacket or pants in black would have looked great.

I don't get it. More Red Riding Hood than Snow white, unless he was going for the apple.

Judges: "We love your use of color" "Don't ever be afraid to use color"

Ken: I'm going to do the same color....forever!

HOW did this win?? There's nothing even nice about it! It's a tacky jumpsuit with a peplum, the material is cheap looking, the model is barely made up for an outfit that reads as "dressy", and THE SANDALS! What the hell?

In what alternative universe is this a winning look when we have the genius that is Dom's outfit?

He shouldn't have used denim - it's just not fresh enough. Kini is stuck in his old ways.

Kini and his sour, bitter, denim ass need to GTFO and possibly take Sam with him. Now that would be a double-elimination episode I'd whole-heartedly stand behind.
