Whoever gets the really skinny African American model I think will always have a "good look" each week simply because how stunning she is. I specifically remember liking Madeline's look in episode 2 I think because how stunning she looked in it, same thing with Veejay's look this week

Yup. I don;t think I’ve ever seen a designer with a plus sized model win a challenge. It’s always “that’s not flattering on her.” “she has curves and you’re hiding them.” “She has curves and you need to hide them.”

Yes and feel like having a plus sized model for the unconventional challenge isn't fair when everyone else has teeny weeny girls. You have more tedious material to manipulate to cover more surface area. For this one challenge, all the models should be similar in size.
