Santino Rice

Santino always seemed like a cocky ass on Project Runway, but I have to give him credit for making this really pretty silk-organza dress. Looks really similar to a Chloé dress from last year, color and all, only the Chloé dress had a silver tie.

Some of his work is so avant-garde that it's obnoxious, and at times it seems like he's trying to be the new Alexander McQueen, but this dress seems like he actually thought about what a woman might wear to feel pretty, instead of just making whatever he felt would push the envelope.
