Project Runway Season 7 contestant guide: Who's going home, who's going to the tents and who's just crying

It's that time of year again, Project Runway is about to be welcomed back into my home with an open mind, a hopeful heart and a judge-y attitude.

In prep for this monumental event, I have painstakingly watched all the audition, casting AND homevisit videos, picked out the best and worst and brought them to you in a handy little guide to Project Runway Season 7. Gimme your thoughts in the comments and check back on Friday afternoons, starting Jan. 15, to see if I was right at all, about anything.

Christiane

Current City: Los Angeles, CA

Premature judgment: It feels like Tim is just letting her through because she is a Runway audition "veteran" and he feels real bad. Her designs are either disjointed or pageant-y, yikes.

Will be kicked off… Week one, hopefully.

Ping

Current City: Chicago, IL

Premature judgment: One word: Messy. I am predicting that she is out early. I just don't see her unique kind of crazy lasting very long but IF I am wrong, she will excel in the "make a garment out of something weird" challenge.

Will be kicked off… Week one or two.

Emilio

Current City: New York, NY

Premature judgment: I have no idea why he got in based upon his casting session. He may be a technical genius but his style feels very matronly.

Will be kicked off… Very early on, if I had to put my money on it, week three.
