Because it had to be some pretty good shit.
MONDO WAS ROBBED!!!
I'm a veteran watcher of competitive reality television, and I don't expect a show's judges to agree with me even a part of the time. (Ask me how many times I've correctly predicted the outcome of America's Next Top Model. Twice.) But I always hope that the decision will at least have some basis in logic (high expectations for what is essentially a game show, I know). But nothing can explain this except for drugs. I mean, how else can you justify handing a large cash fashion design prize to someone who created what was, when it came right down to it, high-end Chicos wear? I know that a lot of women love Chicos (T, I'm looking at you when I say this. And, oh yes. Hi Mom!), but not me.
These were not wearable, on-trend clothes. I for one have no desire to wear granny panties, boxy jackets and pleated pants, and if this is truly where fashion is going, thank God I sew. Project Runway and Lifetime? I wash my hands of you. Marie Claire? You are dead to me.

Watching the deliberations and then the final choice made me wonder whose show is this Heidi. Grethen's collection was boring and unwearable. I thought it was odd how Nina kept talking about how young Mondo's collection read. I know Nina is 45 (close to my own age) but does fashion have to read grandma?
Sorry I haven't replied sooner. You're my first comment ever, and I just checked my email for the first time this week. I know. How was Heidi not able to have a bigger say in the winner? And you're so right about mature fashion not needing to come across as grandma. I didn't think Mondo's collection looked Juniors at all.
