Dr. Whitfield's Bed

Moving on from the auf'ings...

Dr. Whitfield does solid work once again. In a season that, by destiny or design, wound up with a parade of blandness on the runway, she's nonetheless been a notably solid performer.

Model: Lisa Blades

We really only have one criticism of this dress, which we'll get to in a minute. It's pretty, no doubt about it.

It fits her well and we even like the twisted straps, which is weird for us because we rarely like twisted fabric.

Our problem with it is that, though it's fitted well, it's not particularly sewn well.

Pucker City.

Plus, it only barely touches on the piece that supposedly inspired it.

Okay, that's two criticisms.

We get why the judges praised it. It really is a classically pretty design. It's just that it's not particularly wedded to its supposed inspiration, and once again we're looking at technical issues that in past seasons would have had Nina foaming at the mouth.
