Ari Fish booted off Project Runway

Didn’t catch Project Runway last night, but thanks to a commenter on this post, we know that Kansas City fashion designer Ari Fish was kicked off the show last night. Fish’s design is on the right (thanks to the Lifetime site).

Since I missed the show (and it doesn’t appear to be online yet), I’ll consult Newsday‘s analysis of Fish’s one-and-done showing:

Ari Fish, the mandatory token nut job was “aufed” tonight — and that was the shocker because she was so wacky that she added character to the show. During a segment when the designers were supposed to be sketching, Ari, who doesn’t sketch, meditated and,seriously, did a headstand. Her design was rather frightful – a silvery top made up of hexagons over shorts (Red carpet-wear? Um, no.) Tim Gunn wondered if it might look like a “geodesic diaper” and Michael Kors called it a “disco soccer ball.” Lindsay Lohan had an almost visible bubble over head when she saw the outfit, like “Whaaaat is that?”

You can probably catch one of the 87 reruns of the show this weekend, sandwiched between Fifteen and Pregnant and Sex & the Single Mom.
