(In response to criticism that clothes and fashion threads were too frivolous for this august forum, we have this week incorporated serious political commentary into our Project Runway diary. --- NOT!)
Condi -- We agree that accessories are an important part of the look. But we feel you spent far too much time and effort on this hat, which is frankly a distraction.
Since hyperbolic pants explosion announced she(?) would be absent this week, here's your PR thread.
We understand that the combination of pearls and silk camo was meant to be a joke. But a joke at whose expense? You have to think about what is appropriate for the venue, Condi. This look might be a hit in Dupont Circle, but in the Green Zone it fails to amuse.
Your collaboration with Angela and Vincent came off much better than we expected.
We wish you'd lose those long sleeves and high collars a little more often. What's skin got to do with it? Everything, as you proved in the Angela Basset challenge
And who could forget your forceful, masterful updating of Carrie-Ann Moss' look from The Matrix? Or was it Keanu Reeves' look? In either role, you dominated the runway, and made us all believe in NeoCondi.
But again and again you fall down badly when dealing with muslin. Do you really feel that what you have presented so far is convincing? As your employer, we expect you to make us look good. With as much money and time as you have had for this project, we feel that you should have produced something far more appealing by now.
And that means, Condi, you're out!
Auf wiedersehen!
