It's too early in the morning....

Hi, this is Taffy Carla Huffington and Taylor the Lottie boy and we're here to give you our final thoughts on the grand finale of Project Runway. Hi everybody. I figured I'd give you a chance to talk. I figured you'd just jump right in. Okay, yes, season four, the finale was just on 12 minutes ago and most miss Taffy and I both just finished watching it. Let's just get right to the runway show. All the rest of that shit with the pick and models and the bitch in the bed shoes and I don't care about that. Let's just get right down to the nitty gritty as it were. Okay, well can I say something before we get to the into the throws? Now normally you're the one who's like, I'm gonna talk about who won. I will tell you that if I was not a reality TV person, if I was not a fashion person, if I was someone who didn't like anything like this, this episode of this particular season would have changed my mind because to me, this might have been the best episode of Project Runway I've ever seen. Do you not agree? Really? Yes. Why do you say that? To me, it was very, it was almost an emotional episode to watch. I thought Christian about made me tear up at the end because when his little chin started to quiver, you could tell how much he had riding on that show and I don't know why, but for some, you just kind of, even though he comes off as such an arrogant, even though I've loved him since the first episode, but he does come off very arrogant. You wanted him to win so bad just because he looked like he needed to win or something. I don't know, but I thought it was a great episode and I thought the clothes were amazing. That was genuine fear. Yes, it was a genuine, true emotion of, oh my god, I don't know what's happening in this whole experience is weighing on me and I don't know what to do. It was a great moment, I thought. Yeah, no, I agree. And I think that Tim Gunn's speech to the three of them was very heartfelt and sincere and I think he hit it right on the nose. I think this was absolutely the best collections that they've ever had. Yeah, I would agree too. I definitely agree too. I didn't have any talking generally about all three of them and then we'll get into the specifics. I didn't have any of those moments with the exception of one, which I'll get to down the line, but I mean, normally when they have the big, even usually during regular episodes, one of them will eventually come out, a dress will eventually come out or an outfit will come out and I have that like, you know, where it takes your breath away for a second and with the exception of one, I didn't necessarily have that with all of the collections. I was surprised. I didn't have that with Jillian. In fact, I thought Jillian's collection was with the big, the weird shoulder crap. I thought it was very distracting. Every single outfit had some weird shoulder thing. I did. All right, well, let's get, let's get to Jillian then. I mean, you just talked about that. The first thing that I didn't write down a whole lot, but then as I went back and got thinking about things and they sort of showed flashbacks when they were doing the final, the final judging, it was, to me, it was a dominatrix meets goes to a hunting lodge. It's dominatrix on a horse farm. Yeah, that's pretty much what I have written down is dominatrix on a horse farm because even though I love writing pants, I think writing pants are sexy as hell if done right and she did them well. The whole writing pants with the big giant collard, I don't know, it seemed like all her stuff looked exactly like, I will say though, the mercury fluid dress that ended up being pants, I thought was kind of cool. Yeah, because I didn't realize that was pants until she got all the way down to the end of the runway and then turned around and I was like, oh, cool. I thought that was, that was a nice surprise. But then for every one of those you had the gold LeMay Neglege. Yeah, thank you. No, no, no, which was very Madonna, circa 1993, erotica, you know, bedtime stories, sort of yeah, that was, that was very much, I was like, oh god, really that doesn't have anything to do with the rest of the collection. I will say shockingly though, are you done with Jillian? Sorry, before I move ahead? No, and the only other thing was just the cheesy poof sweater. Yeah, that was stupid. That was ridiculous. Moving ahead to Rami's, I actually had two of his outfits that I said I would totally wear that. Which two? I would absolutely, the basket weave dress that had, of course, the drape fabric that came across the shoulder but went through the basket weave. It was like a brown and maybe a metal looking color. Yeah, that was a beautiful dress and the black dress, the last black dress was fricking unbelievable. I think that was the dress that he showed last week when he was going up against Chris. I think Victoria Beckham might have came a little bit when she saw that dress because I actually saw almost a smile. I know. Okay. I actually did write down the last dresses were actually good. I put down wicker. I just thought it looked, it all still looked very 1982 to me. No, it did. You know, it was very JC Penney's 1982 collection. I also put wrote down blue Taffy's favorite color because I knew you hate blue and I think it was because one of the models reminded me of her but I saw who I think would wear some of his stuff and this is not a compliment when I say this but that gross, um, Chloe Saveni, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yeah. I know. Who is, you know, the epitome of snail trail as far as I'm concerned. Jesus. She is, she's just gross and I just thought a lot of, because she wears a lot of that very, you know, quote and speech stuff. It hangs for me but it doesn't really hang. Yeah. Yeah. And she sort of got that pouty trailer park look on her face and I just pictured a lot of that. Like, look at me. I'm glamorous. Y'all. Now I'm headed back to the trailer park that was sort of the look that I was thinking about. It was gross. So let's move on to Christian because I got lots of notes for Christian. Okay. The brown leather top, the first one that came out, I loved that. Love that. Yeah. The black ruffle jacket I would buy tomorrow. Okay. In fact, the black ruffle jacket, I actually turned to my daughter and went, yeah, I'm going to have to own that at some point because it was fabulous. My, and actually, Christian was the one that I had with the dress and that was not the last dress with the feathers, but the two tone down the middle where it was dark brown on one side and light brown on the other side. I wrote down two tone exclamation point exclamation point. Oh my god. Yeah. That was amazing. I put, I put a little, I put two tone dress and put a big starter to it. And the feather dress was amazing from a craftsman ship point of view as far as the, you know, nobody would actually wear that someplace. Well, it was, it was a hot couture. I mean, there's no way you know what anyone would wear it, but it was amazing. Yeah. That was the, that would be on the, what were they thinking when some, you know, when, when Shania Twain rocks out of it. I was trying to think of somebody, Shania Twain, that's perfect. Yeah. Which he shows up at the CMT awards. Exactly. Um, I did think the Christian though, a couple of things that bothered me about Christians was all the models walking like they were already to follow at a moment's notice. That's because they were all, did you see the shoes? Nine-inch heels? Yeah. Nine-inch heels. And he even, and what I wrote down as I thought was very funny is that he said, if I walked around my apartment for a week in them to make sure they were walkable, suck it up. It's for, it's for one, you know, one show, that's absolutely right. You know, if, if you really did walk around, they showed him walking around these things to make sure they were walkable. And this model is now on Project Runway. Don't pitch. Put them on, walk around. Yeah. Right. Right. Yeah. The only other thing with Christian was a lot of it did seem very repetitive. It was very much the big groovy hat. And you know, the, the big ruffles and everything was black, which they sort of called them on as far as the, when you, everything is black, it loses all of the details and it all gets kind of washed out up against the white. Can I, can I make a personal observation? Um, did you happen to notice Michael Kors with the glasses and the scarf kind of looks a little bit like drum Riley Calhoun? Uh, yeah. No, I had to notice that. Well, I will tell you, if you go back and review Michael Kors with the glasses and the, and the scarf, drum Riley Calhoun, I was, when he come up, I went, I think he looks, uh, I don't think drums ever been that shade of orange before, but okay. Not necessarily the tangerine shade, but I'm saying he definitely was, he definitely was reminiscent of drum Riley in Savannah when it was cold and there were sunglasses involved. I don't know. I, when he had the first shot that they make of him when he's there at the fashion show, I instantly thought of him. So there you go. Sitting next to Victoria Beckham in her orange kimono, look at whatever the hell she had. She wore an orange kimono as a, as a throw, a throw back to Michael Kors's orange skin. I did think Nina Garcia looked very nice. So pregnancy did well with her. Isn't she still pregnant? I didn't know she was pregnant. Oh yeah. Nina Garcia, I think was pregnant during the taping. I don't know if she was pregnant on the finale, but she was, I don't give a shit about Nina Garcia. Well, okay then. And we're moving on. I don't give a shit. There's Taylor not giving a good goddamn. So they announced, obviously, for anybody who actually, you know, gives a good goddamn, but would listen to this podcast that Christian was, in fact, the winner. And, you know, you pretty much called it from the beginning and I sort of thought the same thing. And there was part of me that hoped he didn't win just because of his cockiness. But really, when you go back and look at his entire collection over the course of the, awesome, however many episodes the season was, it really was an amazing collection. And I'm just glad that Rami didn't win. Yes. There was a small part of me that was hoping that Gillian would quote a, Gillian would fly under the radar. But obviously that didn't happen. I was kind of hoping that Gillian would have, it would have been Gillian and Christian. But honestly, even though I never liked Rami, his collection was better than Gillian's. It was. I had no gas-inducing thing on Gillian, and I had two on Rami. So I was, I was happy with, I was just very happy that Christian won. And I thought the last final few minutes was, was great. Great TV. Yeah. Very much so. So, yeah. So in how long do we have to wait till the next one? Oh, God. I don't know. Did you watch the commercial for the step up with Elizabeth Berkley? Oh, no. I was fast-forwarding through commercials. No, they showed it at the very end, right between, you know, showing the replay where it's pretty much so you think you can dance, but it's Elizabeth Berkley is the host. So she's no me, no me alone? It's no me alone and scary spice because Mel B is one of the judges. No, she's gross. Yeah. So that's a lot of snooters a go-go. You know that she smells like a mixture of patchouli and like, you know, I don't know. Vagina? And vagina. Yes, patchouli and vagina. That's exactly- Patchouli and vagina sweat. All right. Well, that's pretty much it. Well, really? What else can you say after patchouli and vagina sweat? I mean- Exactly. Exactly. All right, everybody. Please go to our blog potasmycopilot.com.
