Here I thought we had a few more episodes of Project Runway to go, but last night was the last challenge episode before the finale. Not only that, but Heidi announced that there would be two eliminations at the end of the episode — cue the stress! Once reality sunk in, Tim Gunn swept the designers off to The Metropolitan Museum of Art, where they each chose one painting or sculpture for inspiration.
Rami picked an Aphrodite sculpture (surprise!), Sweet P a peacock painting, Christian a courtly painting of a Spanish man, Jillian the master of the warring Argonauts, and Chris an eighteenth-century noblewoman. Rami and Chris ended up making outfits that looked similar to past episodes, Sweet P went commercial, Christian took his look to the extreme, and Jillian was stellar as always — but what I really want to know is: Who do you want to win?!
For a full run down of "The Art of Fashion" episode, be sure to hear what Buzz has to say.

1btw, that's me chanting...
2I'm torn between Jillian and Christian!
3I hate them all for certain reasons.... but I'd like to see christian win before the rest do.
4I just love Christian! He is so entertaining, I think he would be a good celebrity (and a good designer too, of course, lol)
5Jillian for the win!
6christian could have his own show. i love watching him and he has great designs.
7I love both Christian and Jillian, but I think Jillian is more versatile so I'm rooting for her. I like Chris, too, but I don't think he's got it in him. He'll win fan favorite though, so that's a nice consolation prize. Used to kind of like Rami way back when, then I realized he's kind of a jerk and super uptight!
8Jillian! I can't stand Christian and his ego and immaturity. Plus, I agree with jasmint. She's more versatile, I think she understands the female form a lot better than Christian. I really do like Chris, but they're right he is more of a costume designer. I like Rami, but unless he can show that he can do something besides draping, he's kinda boring. Boo to Christian. Booooo. Yay for Jillian. GO JILLIAN!
9In the beginning I liked Rami,I still think his dresses are beautiful but it's getting to monotonous and boring.
10I am really torn between Jillian and Christian.
I have the feeling that Christian will win though.
Christian is very talented as far as final product goes. Rami really understands alot about lines, contours what looks best and I think he is better at listening and seeing what others have to say.
11Chris! Chris! My boyfriend and I love Chris (I make him watch it with me)
12Christian's talented, I just think Chris would do wonderful things.
Chris and Christian are my faves.
And since I want Chris to win, Christian probably will.
That's how it always goes.
Like with Austin and Jay, Jay won, and I wanted Austin to win so bad.
I know I'm in the minority, but I miss Victorya!
13Do you even have to ask? Christian. DUH!!
14Jillian does more stuff I'd actually want to wear if I saw it in stores. I mean, It's classy, chic, and you wouldn't necessarily feel like you were dressed up for Halloween in it. Christian is an amazing designer, but I don't know many people who'd wear his stuff, even toned down, in real life.
15I LOVE RAMI!! Christian is a huge JERK... He's good yes but it's kind of like when a hot guy knows he's hot and it's a total turn off...
16I like Chris! I seriously doubt he will win, but I think he's fab!
17KEVEN SHOULD BE THERE!!
Other than that... Chris. I love him. Rami is talented, but ENOUGH WITH THE DRAPING!!! Christian bugs me, and I like Jillian, but she never really wowed me other than that black coat.
18I would love for Jillian to win because there hasn't been many females who have won! Plus her designs are so versatile and wear-able. She is impeccable and has an air about her, a certain class that I love.
I cannot wait to see what each of their final collections look like. I wish it were next week instead of the reunion show! Damn Bravo TV.
19Jillian!!!!!
20ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? IM SORRY BUT WATCHING JILLIAN IS ABOUT AS EXCITING AS WATCHING MOSS GROW ON A TREEE. HER PERSONALITY IS EIVALENT TO A WET RAG AND THE FASHION IDUSTRY WOULD EAT HER ALIVE. MY FAV IS CHRIS BUT I DONT THINK HE CAN TURN AROUND THE JUDGES PERCETION THAT HE IS COSTUME SO MY NEXT CHOICE IS CHRISTIAN. YAH HE MAY BE A BIT EGOTISTICAL BUT AT LEAST HE IS FUNNY AND HAS SOME PERSONALITY, BUT JILLIAN AND RAMMI MAKE ME WANT TO DRINK A CUP OF COFFEE WHEN THEY SPEAK!
21Christian or Jillian. If I see one more Grecian type draped ensemble from Rami I think I'll scream.
22Christian! He's FAB!
23um tone down the caps please. It's not a personality contest, it's who is the best designer... so the fact that you think jillian is "boring" or makes you want coffee is irrelevant.
24Jillian...LOVE HER!
25Love Christian too...with his crazy self, but I don't think his collection will be very wearable.
Chris is my favorite, but I think Christian is going to win, considering that Victoria Beckham is the guest judge at the finale and she and Christain are THE SAME PERSON, =/- boob implants.
26Christian is soooooo fierce
27Even though I find Christian's designs interesting...I feel like I would actually wear something that Jillian made (most things actually) I wouldn't be bummed if Christian won though.
28Christian, out of the last one's I think his work has been consistently good. I do really like Chris, as a person though.
29Christian..talent wise he is the best out of all of them..even though he has a good annoying ego he is still the best and this is a fashion design contest not a personality one
30Chris. I lurve him. But I'll be okay if Christian wins and Rami gets 4th place.
31check out this blog with all of the looks each of the four designers have done all season and tell me who you think should win then http://teamsugar.com/user/syako/blog/1046813
32I want Rami to win. I suspect alot of these voters are younger people online. I'm not so convinced that the real fashion women with money and buy the cloths are posting and blogging.
33Christian looks bore me. I like black cloths, but the same thing all the time???
I'll pulling for handsome Rami!
like many people, I can't decide between Christian and Jillian.
34TEAM JILLIAN! ALL THE WAYYY!!!
35Jillian was the biggest surprise for me in this episode, Rami the biggest disappointment. Although I like everything Jillian produces I guess I still don't have a clear picture of Jillian's signature style; her look for this week wasn't what I imagined she'd do and she surprised me (which is good)! Rami, Rami, Rami, why couldn't you push yourself a tiny bit? I also liked Chris' look even though it wasn't a big stretch for him, but Christian's was my fave. Love him or hate him, the guy us undeniably talented.
I actually sneaked a look at the final collections online already but haven't made up my mind yet. I don't envy the judges!
36Christian, for sure. He is supremely talented!
37Christian is annoying as all hell, but he is fierce. I think he's the most talented designer on the show.
38Jillian. I love every single thing she's made.
39Jillian has so much talent but because she's not a showoff like Christian or Rami (who are both talented, don't get me wrong), she goes relatively unnoticed. And she looks very stylish herself. Jilliaaan!!!
40Has anyone else noticed that EVERY SINGLE PIECE Christian has done has relied on the jacket/button up shirt pattern? He is ALWAYS doing a jacket. Even when he worked with Chris it was the same pattern for the top.
Christian has flair, but I don't think he has a lot of variety. I also don't think he makes things that are wearable. Plus, he lacks balls in the color department.
