Erin=Wretchen


Same person to me.

Annoying personality - check.
Terrible designer - check.
Judges favorite - check.
Undeserved winner - check.

History repeats itself.

I feel like anyone who tries to make a pun on someone's name is automatically not going to make any intelligent post after that. Granted then your extremely vague and reaching comparisons confirmed it.

 I definitely thought it and mentioned the same to the aggravation of someone who thinks I harangued Wretchen too much, but you & I feel exactly the same! Maybe it's about being from the American northwest that makes them seem so much the same!  

! Erin grew up in Utah! And now lives in Massachusetts! Look on a map and see if they're in the northwest!

Erin got the same edit as Gretchen: came out strong, faltered for a few challenges, then came back strong in the end. It was so obvious, and obviously scripted.

The difference is that, while I didn't really like Gretchen's finale collection all that much, there were some wearable pieces and it was well made overall. And I was not a fan of Mondo's collection, which was quite junior, a bit tacky, and had terrible styling.

I also confess that I greatly enjoyed sitting back and watching people lose their $hit when Gretchen won. (Ditto Anya's win lol).

OMG, Anya! How she got so far still amazes me! She literally sewed her models into those dresses! She was incompetent in her fabrications and probably picked up along the way! The other designers gave her too much info and then contributed to her staying when she lost her money at "Moods!" People donated their xtra $$ and fabric along with production adding a requirement to create a last minute design which put more money in her hands to beat them! It was an absolute joke how all concerned were helping her along the way to the finale! 

As for Mondo, he cut his own throat when he didn't listen to the critiques before the finale! He was warned about it being a little too young; not to mention a little too much print in that polka dot dress! He was supposed to take the sleeves off and he totally went with the original design! They made up for it by handing "All-Stars" to him a couple years later! 

Anya Anya Anya. She literally made Maxi dresses every challenge. I think she was the contestant that admitted she couldn't sew, right?

Anya hands down is the worst winner in the entire series in my opinion. Sewing models into the clothes, repetitive basic atheistic, and we're seeing would come apart on the runway? She's a very limited designer who only relies on the fabric prints. I did not like that she was constantly favored and by the judges. I don't agree with Erin's win. She had a strong start, but her outfits come off as too tacky and more like Kindergarten arts and crafts. I'm actually preferred Grethen's won. I liked her ready to wear final collection and she showed talent throughout the competition. Mondo's disigns did not appeal to me.

reply

Gretchen had a horrible personality, but I don't remember much about her as a designer.

Totally agree with all the comments about Anya. One of the worst wins ever.

I really like Erin, though. She's talented and she genuinely seems like a good person.
