Project Runway Season 6 Episode 3 Recap
We open with Mitchell is scared he is going to go home. I sense a little foreboding. Heidi waltzes in and sends the designers on a field trip. She tells them not forget their sunscreen on their mystery trip. Way to be stealth Heidi. The bitches head to the beach and GASP! Tim Gun is in flip flops and a tasteful blazer. Only Tim can pull off Brooks Brothers at the beach.
They are paired off in teams of two and picked off like middle school kids playing Red Rover. Mitchell picks Ra’mon as his teammate so he can “carry him” through the challenge. Yes, that is a quote and no Ra’mon isn’t happy about being paired off with designing equivalent to a fat kid on a dodge ball team. They are forced to make forced to make beachwear and Tim already stole blazers and flip flops.
After chatting with bikini clad beach hoes Epperson and Qristyl are arguing before they leave the beach. They only have 15 minutes to shop at Mood and Mitchell is like a letting Ra’mon carry him like he should be. If you are going to ride on the coattails of someone you shut your mouth and say “Yes daddy, that is fabulous!” Instead he is complaining about the fabrics Ra’mon picked out.

Epperson can’t handle working with Qristyl and needs some Tylenol. Mitchell and Ra’mon are ready to go to couples counseling. Ra’mon is draping and working it and states he is going to just do the draping and get it done. Mitchell snaps back, “That’s finnnnnnnne.” Oh, Mitchy…don’t bite the hand that brings home the bacon and turns into couture. (Or whatever that saying is.) Ra’mon doesn’t understand what his problem is and Bitchy Mitchy informs him (again direct quote) “In our relationship I can’t always tell you that you are perfect.” WTF? This isn’t Oprah my dear. Now, fashion a fierce jacket out of hemp and banana peels like it’s Project Runway.
Mitch is literally sitting around doing NOTHING. He probably has a back log self help books cataloged in his iPhone and it’s eating away at him. Ra’mon is sewing, draping and doing literally ALL of the work. Johnny comes over to ask Mitchell’s Sewing Sugah Daddy a question and Mitchell tells him to back off his bitch and demands he get back to work.
Tim enters and announces the teams have to create a second look that is avant garde to go with their surf wear. Ra’mon is trying to figure out how he is going to carry himself and his gigantic baby through. Meanwhile Epperson and Qrystil and still arguing quietly. Eppy is trying to school her on how to sew. She wants to school him on Diary of Mad Black Woman.
They go back to Mood and Ra’mon informs his princess that she will have to get off her ass and help. He starts the new look and hopes Mitchell can handle finishing up the swim suit. Carol is informed her model, Erika, is going to be doing a commercial and has to make do with a new model. Valeria steps in to replace Erika. The rest of the models enter and try everything on. Gordana and Nikolas must have confused this with Trannies Go Fredricks of Hollywood Bathing Suit Shopping. They have concocted a sheer lacy number that is currently ass-less. Meaning there is a big hole where rear covering fabric.
Once again Mitchell is sitting on his fanny talking about wet suits with his model. Ra’mon is frantically trying to create another avant garde look while Mitch finally picks up a iron and burns himself. Nikolas no longer cares about his Tranny Gidget piece because everyone knows who is going home.
Tim enters to lay judgment. He loves Johnny’s work thus far and moves to Epperson and Company. Their dress apparently detaches into several pieces. Tim informs them he doesn’t want to see panties on the runway and they go back to work. He glides through everyone else. Until he comes Ra’mon and Mitchell. He immediately asks “WHAT is that!?” as he points to Sewing Sugah Daddy’s “scuba suit” looking dress. The dress on the mannequin that is the original beach look is a gorgeous bright and flowy piece in a yellow and blue light fabric. The avant garde piece has become a rubbery burgundy mess. He warns them to pull it together. Ra’mon scrapes the entire wet suit and starts working like mad on a new bright yellow number. Mitchell is finally trying to help, but Ra’mon has let his danglers down and tells him to step off.
Epperson and Company are again quietly arguing. However, a lovely chocolate dress is suddenly on the mannequin behind them and I must find some Dove candy to munch on. It’s the end of the day and the end of her patience. She tells him she is done talking with him and I am not sure she is really pissed or not. Where is the stereotypical head bobbing and assertions of her strong woman-hood?
The next day they are working frantically to get done. Except Mitchell who is fiddling with himself and asking questions that Ra’mon doesn’t have time for. He gives him the whatever look and goes to dye his new concoction after feeling the color is that of rabid lettuce. Tim is super worried and tells him to get SOMETHING, even the scuba suit, on his models. Q is ready to throw Epperson under the bus both in front of the judges and in general.
Rachel Bilson is the guest judge along with Max Azria replacing Michael Kors.
The Runway….
Louise - SAFE
Christopher - SAFE
Ra’mon and Mitch - They are both in the highest score category. Heidi calls out Mitchell and wants to know what he did. Since he can’t tell her that he was busy chatting about wet suits with his model and doodling pictures kittens he admits Ra’mon did the bulk of the work. He does take credit for swim suit. Which Heidi snaps “We can’t even see the swim suit. So you did the swim suit and Ra’mon did everything else?” He is like a fish flopping around out of water. Ra’mon rolls his eyes and lets him wriggle. Heidi asks why the funny face and he informs the judges he was doing the work while Mitch played slap and tickle with an iron.
Shirin - SAFE
Epperson and Qristyl - Oh dear. Epperson is rolling his eyes as Qristyl tries and defend herself. Epperson is scolding her on the runway like a child. The once yummy looking piece of billowing chocolate avant garde dress is now an anorexic swimsuit and the judges want to know WTF it is supposed to be.
Johnny and Irina - All of the judges gushed over the macramé in the back of the look. Rachel dubs their beach wear her fav. Max loves the top of the woven avant garde look.
Carol- SAFE
Logan- SAFE
Nicolas - Heidi hates the tranny stripper look. As do the rest of the panel. They are all agreed the macramé top is nice, but the beach pant is “messy” and Nina calls out the garters. I didn’t notice it until Nina pointed out the flesh toned belt around her thighs.
It is beyond obvious that Mitchell is out. Heidi states….and I love it….”On Project Runway you actually have design and create and sew.” Ra’mon is dubbed the winner and Mitchy is one pissed off ho. He knows he is going home. They are whittled down to Mitchy and Qristyl. Heidi informs princess that “never in Project Runway history has a winning team member been eliminated.” Ouch. There is a first for everything and they send him packing. FINALLY!
