Goodness, that Ivey can be vindictive! Micheal C. is classical/modern with his couture and Mondo is innovative and not afraid of colors, they are my top favorite designers and April falls into the list too.
Gretchen in my opinion is overwhelming (her trend, couture, and colors are something I would not personally invest). Good luck to the main winner on Fashion Week. BTW.....Valerie M. is from Corpus Christi/Callalen region (that's where I'm from).
