The Loneliest Little Girl on the Runway

We've forgotten Althea again!

Okay, no we didn't. It's just that there's always the top, the bottom, and then there's Althea. Sort of like Maude.


Model: Lisa Blades

Well, Maude did a pretty damn fine outfit, we have to say.

It's stylish, it looks expensive, and it's perfect for St. Tropez (because it's stylish and looks expensive).

We love the metallic shorts, and the easy, breezy, sexy quality of the whole look.

Our criticism (and you know there is one) has to do more with the technical aspects.

It seems to us that Althea has some good design skills but not-so-good technical skills, which is why she winds up in the middle so much. If we had to guess, we think the judges tend to like her work quite a bit but give it a pass because it's often a little clumsy-looking, execution-wise.

Not that this looks is awful or anything. Just that the sheer top looks a little half-assed, and since the whole look revolves around that top, it needed to be flawless for it to work. Althea said as much to Tim in the workroom. It's a pretty good design and perfect execution could have bumped it up to the top three.
