I'm assuming you're talking about how they ripped Terry's dress to shreds and KEPT Miss INSANE POOFY SLEEVES?
Because Terry's gotten repeatedly shafted this season. I don't like her personality, but her clothes have been beautiful. She didn't deserve to go. I was very WTF myself. As was my mom, who I happened to watch the episode with.
YES! The sleeves. I was not aware crazy poofiness was part of being an Aquarius.
Terri wasn't my favorite either (though I was surprised they started ripping on her for the pants in the challenge involving Marlene Dietrich; of all the challenges to make pants, that would be the one), but she never got the recognition she deserved when she made great clothes. And then as soon as she slips up (and it wasn't that bad, comparatively), she gets tossed off.

Terri has been waaaay more consistent with great execution and IMHO was robbed of wins on more than 1 occasion. While I really hated watching the drama tonight between Terri and Keith (You with the testosterone - GROW UP! You with the estrogen - yeah, ditto. And ditch the entitlement bitch act on the way!) I did think her design was much better thought out than the crazy insane plaid princess of poof.
As for the winner: Jerrel? REALLY? I mean, it was good and all, but winner???

EXACTLY! Leigh Ann's was fabulous, Korto's was fabulous, and I'll be honest, I really really loved Joe's. I liked Jerrel's. (Key word there: liked)
YMMV, but I felt like the win was used to balance the top players out...three in a row for Leigh Ann might have caused another black hole for the earth to worry about.

I was honestly shocked at how much I loved Joe's dress. Even though I knew he wouldn't win because he'd gotten no coverage in the show. I wish we had seen the comments on the dresses the judges liked.
Seriously! I normally like Kenley's stuff, but what about Giant Plaid Shoulders of Doom says Aquarius at all? And then being all "NO U!!!" at the judges? Kenley needs to ditch this whole I Am The Queen of Fashion Forever thing she's got going on. But then, it seems like all the contenders have had their Bella Swann Moments so far - where's the self-doubt and humility that should be there, at least in part, like the last, oh, four seasons?
I feel like I could like Terri if she wasn't such a raging bitch. Like, all the time! I mean, her designs are great, more often than not, but her Holier-Than-Thou stance = Fail. Kinda like Christian, but everyone apparently loves him so I'll shut up.
If it's any consolation, the guy who was eliminated was my least favorite as well! In a 'reach through the screen to knock some sense into him', kind of way.
If anything, Korto's was friggin' awesome, and Leanne's was absolutely fab. Leanne = my new favorite since about six challanges ago. <3
Kenley never listens to anybody, and that's why I suspect she won't be going to Bryant Park. Didn't she see what happened to Keith? You are not as good as you think you are!
I didn't like Christian either, so you're not alone.
I never liked Blayne, but I guess I never wanted to punch him in the face like I do/did with Kenley and Keith. I suppose once he grows up and drops the character act, he might be a good designer.
Leanne's one of my favorites as well. I really want her to go all the way, and the Scorpio dress was totally actually avant garde.
Not sure why Kenley thinks herself the Omniscient Goddess of Fashion lately, but see my first suggested rule above. Not listening to Tim? Sure-fire way to not make it to Bryant Park? Don't believe me - watch any of the previous seasons. Or check with wackadoo Vincent.
Losing Keith for me was not a blow. Actually I haven't been too upset with any of the auf's thus far except for Kelly, who I had originally chosen to go all the way.
At this stage, I'm definitely rooting for Leanne (see, I can learn how to spell her name) and Korto to make it to Bryant Park, with Joe as a possibility.

Kelly was one of my favorites, too. Partner challenges always seem to bring someone good down instead of a more deserving contestant (*cough*Blayne*cough*; though I congratulate him on stepping up to take the blame).
I wanted Korto to win, but I suppose LeAnne's collection did look more professional. Was it just me, or have the startards for clothing made on this show gone way down?
I agree that the standards seem to have gone down. I wasn't really wowed by anything in any of the shown collections the way I was previous years. I liked a lot of the things, even liked them a lot, but there was nothing that popped out for me.

I KNOW. Scorpio Dress was much better. Hell, there were a few things that were better.
