When they first showed Gretchen's line, my thought was that they are so ugly she'll probably win. Both Andy and Mondo had better clothes!

First, it was a complete shock the judges kept Gretchen and let Michael C go. Her collection was awful. I liked Mondos. Even Andy had more fashion sence. And they both had something I would wear. fyi, I am 66 And what was that obsession with Gretchen and old lady underpants? The show was such a dissapointment this year.

The first thought I had for Gretchen's clothes was: hippie, the 1960's. Talk about color scheme, none here it all looked the same or very close to fabrics. To me it was between Andy and Mondo; would have been a tough call there. AND I thought runways were to tantilize the audience with personality couture. This one did NOT. However, I am hooked on this program it does give some ideas.

In my humble opinion, and I am no fasionista, she should not have even been in the top three.....Andy and Mondo were soooo much better...MONDO was the clear winner. He had the vision and skill and the showmanship. When Gretchen models came out wearing their big panties I almost died laughing...who ever in their right mind would wear their grannie panties out in public let alone on a redcarpet event. I enjoyed this season but at the end of each episode I would find my self yelling at the screen "get rid of the .....well, you fill in the blank. What she did to Christoffer C was cruel and very junior high. He should have been in the top three.

That makes two of us! Her runway looks were ok but Mondo had been consistantly good all season. And how in the !@#**! did Michael C. get that far. It was like someone was coaching him and at the last minute quit.

I didn't like her about 1/4 in to the show. Her attitude and smart remarks to the others were terrible. But when they showed her at home and what she was going through I understood. However, her attitude and remarks should be directed to her Ex and not the competitors. Can't imagine what it might be like for those who have to work FOR her. I wouldn't want to be one of them.

I really didn't think any of this season's designers were really awesome. Maybe I'm just too old for fashion! ;)
I so agree, thought Gretchens stuff was too much one color. Also would liked to have seen Michaels stuff since he did show some very pretty feminine designs, think he was self taught and just diint have the basics down when it comes to fabric properties, that can be learned though if you have the talent which he seemed to have.

Did anyone but me like last years Models of the runway? I wish it had been on instead of Austin and Santino. Just much more down to earth.
