Keith hugs the others backstage. But Keith’s private interview segment is full of tears. “This is what fashion means to me,” he says. His level of emotionality is a bit worrying - fashion can make mincemeat out of the toughest people. Whatever it might take, I hope Keith strengthens from within and pulls it together. He does have talent - but no one will believe in him if he does not. Tim gives Keith a big hug and says “We will miss you a lot.” Keith’s solo interview continues with his tearful admission that “in Salt Lake I don’t get out a lot.” He feels this was his big chance. The implication is that he blew it. Keith, the glass is half full. You were among a handful of people; you made it that far. Just keep on going. Can we all chip in to send Keith to a motivational seminar? Please?
Meanwhile, next week on Project Runway, the challenge is to please “legendary designer” Diane von Furstenberg, whose ‘wrap dress’ helped working women stay chic from the 1970s onward. We’re not told exactly what the challenge is, only that the designers will design something for her. She’s judged on this show in the past and seems a nice lady. I hope next week the remaining designers will have fun and will enjoy their work. If you don’t enjoy the journey, the destination means little, whether that is Salt Lake City or Bryant Park. See you next time, sob sisters.
