Episode 203: Team Lingerie
Challenge: The designers must create a lingerie line consisting of 3 looks. Each designer is given the opportunity to pitch Heidi on their vision and she picks 4 of them to move forward with their line. These 4 designers pick teams from the remaining contestants and begin creating their lingerie lines. Sparks fly in the workroom as tensions between designers reach an all time high. In the most dramatic elimination yet, one designer is sent home from the competition in an emotional farewell. The Winner: Daniel V. Out: Daniel F. *** Designer: Daniel F. Model: Claudia Designer: Daniel F. Model: Eden Designer: Daniel F. Model: Grace Designer: Daniel V. Model: Danyelle Designer: Daniel V. Model: Rachael Designer: Daniel V. Model: Rebecca Designer: Diana Model: Cara Designer: Diana Model: Eliza Designer: Diana Model: Lesley Designer: Santino Model: Heather Designer: Santino Model: Shannon Designer: Santino Model: Tarah

Santino's designs were the ugliest by far. I can't believe they kept him and sent Daniel F home (whom I don't believe should have been in the bottom 2 anyway). Based on what they judges were discussing on camera, it seemed they were ready to send Santino home. The producers must have said, "No. We want to keep him. He provides more drama and this is Daniel's second shot anyway. Daniel's too nice and boring." IMO Santino hasn't designed anything great yet and he was a horrible team leader with his "melt down" and the way he turned on Emmett. I was worried that they might send home whole teams because most of the designers I hope will be in the running to win were in the "bottom two" teams.
