The Awful Auf-less Episode – Week 11

This was an odd episode. The producers ran out of fresh ideas for the challenge, so they let the designers do their own thing. In the end, they were all sent home ... to prepare for their upcoming OFW collections.

I don't know about you, but like watching a good porn flick (or even a mediocre one, I guess), I expected to see someone get off!


So, now we have to eliminate three models. Laura stayed true to Camilla. Uli was up next. She allowed the evil voodoo spirit of Shatangi to overtake her body. For a brief moment, the sweet Uli turned into Zuli (I guess that's what she meant when she said, "The bitch is going to come out."). She snatched Nazri away from Michael and left him in a lurch.


Michael decided to go with Clarissa and Jeffrey went steady with Marilinda. Amanda was left speechless, for the first time in her life.

Now, we're off to see Professor Garcia. She instructed them on the importance of having an editorial-worthy collection.


Working without any restrictions or guidelines, both Michael and Uli struggled. Laura made a conscious decision to churn out another beaded cocktail dress. Jeffrey changed his radio dial from Hard Rock to Easy Listening.


Now, what did the judges think about the final runway challenge leading up to OFW? I think Nina got a little bored - and a little confused. She wasn't impressed at all.

"Don't bore Nina!"


I wasn't too sure how the guest judge would react either. I guess I was waiting for the 2-snap salute, but I didn't see it. For the most part, she "HATED IT!"


The judges called Laura a one-note. They were confused about both Jeffrey and Michael. So by default, Uli won for her short-cropped beach wrap that can be worn in Miami. Her dress will be featured in the First Look section in ELLE magazine.

Let's hear it for the fabulously glamorous Laura Bennett. She is the ultimate multitasker. Not only can she sketch, design, drape, cut, sew and fit in the allotted time, BUT she finds the time to glue beads, baubles, feathers and sparkles to complete the look. How does she ever find time to do it all?
