Who do you think is gonna win! grinnn.gif
Gigi
I love Project Runway but it seems like other cBers don't care for it (apart from Carrie XD) so I never made an official topic.

I think Leanne is going to win.

I think Jerell's aufing was justified, but still unfair since he won the last challenge, and if he was competing in any other season, he would have a guaranteed spot.

Kenley is not NEARLY as bad as they say she is. I love how they say that she's rude and a bitch, and yet they treat her the same way. There's something to respected in someone who doesn't sink to someone else's level, and they did, which makes me not respect them.

And LOL@ when Korto called Kenley out for saying she was "classic", while moments before she had just said Kenley was, essentially, a bad person XD.
aQuafly
I agree with like everything you said xD and I want Leeanne to win too thumbsup.gif

This is true XD I missed the first part of the season though, I came in at the Olympics challenge.

I agree, Leanne should win. Although Kenley... damn her. I don't care if she's "disrespectful" to the other contestants since they're all catty bitches, and all in competition with each other. I do have a problem when she shows the same attitude towards the judges and Tim. Especially Tim. But if Kenley pulls out a win (which I wouldn't be surprised because I saw photos of her collection after she showed them at Fashion Week... AMAZING!) I wouldn't be surprised. Not particularly happy, but not surprised.

I have no idea what happened to Korto's taste level with the wedding dress challenge. Korto's generally awesome, but both of those garments were UGLY. I think the reason why Korto was kept over Jerrell is because of their overall body of work. Jerrell's had some UGLY things, but Korto's had more consistency.

I'm pulling for Leanne, too.

The whole thing with Kenley just irritates me. She can make fantastic clothes, but I'm sorry, her last few challenges have been horrible (not including the very last one). I think the fact that they made all of them make collections again was a bad choice. Korto's nature dress was bad, but I don't think it was as bad as Kenley's.

I was really disappointed with this season in general. They brought too much back from past seasons. It just made everything seem so old and done.
Cyanide-
I really hope that leanne wins though i have a slight feeling that it might be jerell.

^Did you watch this week's episode?

Quite honestly I'm glad about that
Cyanide-
im kinda surprised that he went home. I didnt see the episode yet but still i didnt think it would be him.
schizo
For that challenge, I think he would have made it if he just cleaned up the dresses. Tim told him to get rid of the scraps by the boobs, but he didn't.

When are people going to learn to listen to Tim? If you look back, I don't think he was ever wrong about anything...
Melissa
^ Well, there were a few times where he really liked something and the judges didn't, or the opposite, but it's never really extreme. Usually, what he has to say is pretty spot on.
aQuafly
^ I agree, but I suppose opinions do differ.
Gigi
And they edit the shit out of the show so you never really know what Tim says in its entirety.

Like I said, I want Leanne to win, but she's definitely not my favourite designer, nor do I even like her. But you have to admit that her wedding dress WAS f**kING AMAZING.
aQuafly
^ agreed on everything except I love Leanne xD
Gigi
Holy shit, I looked at Suede, Jerell, and Joe's collections. WTF IS WRONG WITH SUEDE'S COLLECTION? Can someone please tell me? IT LOOKS LIKE SHIT.

Did Kenley lose weight?
click to enlarge

Or just the angle?
aQuafly
she does look thinner there, but I think it's just the angle.
I really haven't noticed her looking thinner otherwise.
towntown2
I'm rooting for Leanne--she's got the kind of style that can evolve with time.
Her wedding dress was to die for!
I wanna get married in it.

Jerell, I think, would have done fine at Bryant Park. Too bad he left. Korto's dress was worse.

Kenley--I hope SNL does a spoof of her.
Gigi
^ It would never be as good as the Christian spoof though LOL.

I refuse to look at Kenley's, Korto's or Leanne's. But like I said, I saw the rest of them and...yeah.
aQuafly
I totally love everything in Leanne's collection and I like the black dress in Kenley's biggrin.gif I wish they could have done men's clothing too, I would have liked to see that.
tailoredtrouble
ahh yeahh yeah this is my show. i've been obsessing. i dont know though. i didn't expect leanne to make it far because i live by portland and the newspaper said like a few months back that "leanne marshall has returned from shooting several episodes of project runway" and blahahblah "being gone so long has meant she's made it somewhat far" and so i got the idea she didnt get to design a collection but.. i love her! lol. i hope she wins. jerrel was my second choice, but yeah. and keneley should get spoofed LOL, and i dunno how she's made it this far.. she just makes the same thing over. and over. and over. and then yells at heidi.. which nobody should do. so yeah, this finale is gunna be a good one :)
Gigi
^ Kenley doesn't make the same thing over and over again. People berate her for having a 50s aesthetic, which is getting old, I agree, and she does recycle some of her designs and silhouettes, but you can't deny that the girl pulls out something awesome at times. Unexpected. More importantly, she consistently creates garments that look well-made. If you could somehow mesh Kenley's meticulousness and Jerell's spark of genius, you would have a perfect contender. Sadly no one this season is that great.

Someone is probably going to say, LEANNE! But Leanne's noodles are a hit-or-miss. When she's bad, she's hella bland and boring, and when she's good, she's tailored, architectural and innovative. But the underlying feeling I get from Leanne is that this girl is a boring sack of poo, except when she gets a stroke of genius.

And, yelling at Heidi...more editing. Of course she practically hands the footage over for the producers to use, Kenley's a crazy bitch but so is Korto. Like I mentioned before, Korto getting all up in Kenley's face when Kenley said Korto had a classic look, while completely forgetting that she had basically said Kenley was a bad person on the runway. I don't know how that makes Korto any better.

I miss Season 2 with Andrae, Santino, Nick, Chloe, Daniel V, Kara Janx, Dirty Diana...:( That season was EPIC.


Miss it...
hi-C
I agree, Season 2 is the best, followed by Season 3. They've just gone downhill since then.

Old news =\ The collections have been on the internet on various sites since early September.


AND OMG, I SAW CHRISTIAN SIRIANO ON THE SUBWAY YESTERDAY! WHICH IS ALSO THE SAME DAY I SAW JAMES FRANCO WALK DOWN THE STREET!
schizo
I personally liked Season 3 a little better than Season 2, but that's probably because it was the first season I was able to watch while it was originally airing. I had to watch Season 2 as an all-day marathon which gets a little tiring after awhile...

I refused to look at those collections in fear of seeing any of the finalists', but I got bored. Joe and Suede's collections were absolutely horrible. Suede's dresses looked like cheap clothes you'd buy for a Barbie. crazy.gif
Gigi
^ WTF SUEDE? I KNOW. He was probably like, oh, I don't give a shit, I got eliminated anyway, I'm gonna throw some f**king BIRTHDAY PARTY STREAMERS together into a skirt and call it day. WTF?!

f**king hated Jeffrey Sebelia, and still do. Season 4's talent was pretty insane. But for sheer entertainment value, Season 2 PWNS ALL.

LUCKY BITCH! I'm clearly more excited for the James Franco bit though.
hi-C
Yeah. I was too. I literally pulled one of those jaw drop deals. And my friend who idolizes Freaks and Geeks, she was closer to him than I was and she completely missed it. And I was like *grabs at her* "OMG THAT WAS JAMES FRANCO." She was upset.
Melissa

^ Awwwww cry.gif So precious!

I love that puppy picture! laugh.gif
Gigi
That is SO CUTE. Even if it didn't have the caption I would've totally thought "Tim Gunn" right away. XD

What the hell how do you keep seeing these people?
towntown2
That puppy's adorable.

Joe's collection is so disconnected.
Biker to western?

Suede's was..well..Suede's, I guess.

Love Leanne's.
Although the wedding dress looks different than it did during elimination.

Congratulations Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeanne

What'd you guys think?

BTW was the reunion episode ever shown? I can't find it anywhere (I have to download the episodes because they don't show them in Canada sad.gif).
andrewexd
the reunion show should be next week i think. Jarrell should have gone to bryant park and won. Leannes was good but she used the flappy design too much. the girl i forget her name the white girl shouldve left a long time ago shes annoying. kortos was decent.

edit : ok nevermind i just saw jarells collection and i dont like it. I still think kenley should have been booted off a while ago.
stephinika
Congrats to the winnerrrr! I personally found hers the most appealing to me so yay! I kinda want one of those skirts, haha.
Gigi
Really? Because I saw screencaps for the reunion episode weeks before the finale, so I have no idea if it actually showed or not. I know that the reunion episodes are almost always the episode RIGHT before the finale episode. So it's leading me to think that the reunion was shown a day other than Wednesday night.
schizo
I was wondering when they were going to have the reunion show too. It's usually the week before the finale, but it wasn't. It's not on next Wednesday, either. I watch Bravo all the time, so I think I would have seen a commercial about it if it was on another day.

I want to know who the fan favorite was. sad.gif
hi-C
^ It was Korto. They said so last week, during a PR commercial.

Last week they were supposed to be showing "never before seen" clips from this current season and the top five unforgettable PR moments from past seasons during Top Design, so I don't know if that was meant to substitute for it.
schizo
Oh. I DVR it, so I just fast forward through all the commercials.

If they announced the fan favorite in a commercial and played the unseen clips during Top Design, then they probably won't have one. I think the people at Bravo were too pissed about the whole thing with the switch to Lifetime to make this season as good as it could be...
Amaranthus
It's gonna be on Lifetime now?
WTF that's dumb.

I still Liked Kenley's best, even if it did resemble Lacroix or Balenciaga.
Gigi
I swear, there were screencaps for the reunion episode!

Just a second.

While you're waiting, I'd like to say that Korto's signature dress was TO f**kING DIE FOR.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay found it.
http://projectrungay.blogspot.com/2008/10/...union-show.html

The commentary/dialogue might be made-up (AND FREAKING HILARIOUS), but the screencaps definitely did not just come from nowhere.
Amaranthus
Thank you Gigi, I nearly peed myself reading that faux-special.
Gigi
You're welcome. Tom and Lorenzo @ Project Rungay make me pee my pants in laughter pretty much every time they post. XD
Melissa
OMG!

I just read almost every single one of their posts. f**king hilarious!
Gigi
^ I KNOW!

You MUST read them rip Suede's collection HAHAHAHAHAHA.
