Reality Roll Call

Last week on Project Runway:

Natalie Portman and the “green” challenge with organic fabric; Suede ended up winning for his punk ballerina dress, and Wesley was sent home despite his amazing shorts.

This week:

So I totally read that Daniel has hooked up with the now-auffed Wesley, which kind of makes me wish Wesley had lasted longer so I could watch the sexual tension.

The challenge isn’t announced right away; the designers are promised a night out with Tim to “unwind.” And if Top Chef Project Runway has taught me anything, a night out on the town is usually code for “surprise challenge.” It’s raining and everyone is in ponchos, and rather than take them to a park or a club, Tim loads the miserable herd onto a double-decker bus. The challenge is to design a look inspired by New York at night, so Tim plays guide to a sort of Magical Mystery Tour. Only rather than a bus full of joyful Liverpool musicians, everyone on this bus is wet and cold and not all that happy to be there.
