Amanda's Take - Season 7, Episode 12

THE BIG TOP
Wow. You can really see why these models are the top five.
I had more to say about the models from previous seasons because someone would give me a reason to explain why a model shouldn't walk a certain way. This season the models were all so talented and poised it was hard to find fault with any of them!

All the remaining models have their own unique style on the runway and are all stunningly beautiful. The model who has the most confidence week after week is Lorena. It doesn't hurt that Emilio keeps giving her such incredibly gorgeous clothes to wear! She helps them to look more beautiful and also she has shown her knowledge of how to work a gown effortlessly.

Project Runway Fantasy Game Update from Mark Y

Hello, Super Fans.

Who's ready for fashion? In a nod to the circus theme of the challenge, I'm hoping Nina wears a pair of big clown shoes and HRH Michael sports a red rubber nose. I have one if he needs to borrow it.

There's buzz out there that this episode is a double elimination. I've thought that was coming all season so I'm ready for it. Anyone agree with that theory? Remember Marla and Diana?

But the scoop I'm liking is that it is a single elimination saying bye bye to one more designer and sending four designers home to design collections for Fashion Week. But, a la Rami vs Chris, only three will get to show (except that we know 10 of them already showed. It's confusing. And whatever you do, don't mention that to Gordana like I did.) And that might mean a walk off of a few looks before Fashion Week. Also makes sense to me with history repeating itself. Chris really pushed the envelope on that one.

I'm looking forward to the circus challenge which should be a hoot and a great field trip for the designers. They stepped in mud for the feedbag challenge. I can't imagine what they'll step in at the circus.

Now for a Fantasy League team. I scored negative points last week so I'm hanging my head in shame. Right now I have Jay, Mila and Seth Aaron. I haven't always been loyal to Jay, but I am not an Emilio fan and Anthony's return is too good to be true. I feel like I'm being set up.

See you all in the party room at 9:20 Mark Y Time. Oh, by the way. If any of you haven't purchased your Season Six DVD, do so. I'm enjoying it immensely. Something about the second time around and it's a lot of fun. Now if only the DVD Gods would listen to me and include all the decoy collections starting with Austin's as a bonus feature!

Tonight On BPR

Photo: Lifetime Network

The circus, really? Well, we've always considered Project Runway to be the Greatest Show On Earth and designers past and present have shown that they are more than capable of making clown clothes, so perhaps taking the designers out to the big top isn't such a stretch.

It's the last challenge of Season 7 and sparks will literally be flying as we find out who's final collection gets to count at Bryant Park. The stakes are huge and BPR has its own cast of characters ready to perform for your entertainment:

• Tbone and suzq (which one is the bigger clown?) will have live play-by-play coverage of Episode 12 as it airs from the east coast. Pre-game at 9:30 p.m. and show time at 10:00 p.m.
• Speaking of clowns, the BPR paty room opens at 9:30 p.m. Watch the big show under the BPR big top
• After Heidi's good-bye kiss tell us what you thought of tonight's epsode in our reactions thread, posted immediately after the show is over.

See you tonight at the circus! Oops, I meant the runway. No difference, you say?

Epiosde 12 Guest Judge: Cynthia Rowley

We still haven't recovered from Cynthia Rowley's last appearance on Project Runway, where she took part in the mind boggling elimination of Gordana Gelhausen. Will similar controversy result in the final challenge of Season 7?
