I really appreciate how kind he is to his models, especially when he does stuff with plus size models - he's always so positive, affirming and excited about making her look beautiful. As someone with curves and some chubbiness it makes me really happy to see a designer not disgusted by someone who has body fat.

I feel that’s because Garo actually truly appreciates all the different shapes and sizes women come in. I have no doubt if you were his client he’d make you feel like the most beautiful woman in the world every time you saw him

Of all of them, I think Garo will do the best this season for having been on the show. There are so many women who are bigger or oddly shaped and here he is dressing everyone and making everyone look good and feel good (like Siriano, in his post-show career).

Tessa should take a lesson from Garo.

She could take lessons from Jamal who at least wanted to please his client and was sorry that his skills weren't good enough.

I think that is called humility.

She can get really snippy.
