Project Runway: Heidi, You're Out (Part 3)

Unfortunately, our main impression of Andy's collection is that his models look like space cadets. Every single girl is wearing silver and/or green. We like his pretty little one-shouldered silver fringe dress and we like the short pleated green dress, but otherwise we think it looks flat and amateurish. We realize that Gretchen's collection is much, much better than his. And now that we know he's been using other people's patterns (click here for the scandal), thanks to Tom and Lorenzo, we don't feel bad for not liking the collection so much.

But let's go ahead and take a look...

Michael Kors applauds Andy's collection because often Asian-inspired design can end up looking costumey, and  this does not. Nina is glad to see the softness in Andy's designs, but is also sad that Andy has been lost somewhere (we couldn't agree more Nina). Jessica Simpson loves the silver one shouldered dress. In fact, everyone seems to be in agreement on liking the silver and green dresses. Michael comments again that he hates the headpieces (as do we). Michael Kors also says the collection, with so much green and silver, leaves you feeling a bit numb. And Andy is quickly (and rightly) put in the third place position.

Stay tuned for Part 4...
