project runway

<p>Not a Christian fan here either - I really felt like he did a lot of the same look -mostly black with tight legged pants & puffy sleeves. I would want Rami to design for me.</p>

<p>As for this year, we thought Kenley would be the one to go last night too.
I think Korto, Jerrel & Leanne should def go to Bryant Park. The preview for next week showed lots of tears from Korto, and I think Jerrel and Leanne were shown crying too. But those previews are always misleading - when you see the actual show you see who the comments are really directed at.</p>

<p>Hopefully Kenley will go.</p>

<p>It took my bff three years to get me to take a look at Project Runway. Now I am an addict. </p>

<p>But I’ll be fiercely peeved if Kenley isn’t dropped next week. Jerrell, Korto and Leanne are the top 3 by far in my book. </p>

<p>Let’s not tell any of the Serious Intellectual Parents on cc that we watch this. Okay?</p>

<p>“sybbie with the low EQ says busyparent, I did see the collections”</p>

<p>Sybbie- I don’t understand what you mean by “with the low EQ” Could you please explain? thanks</p>

<p>Christian was okay, but I actually liked Jillian and her designs better. Some of Rami’s dresses were nice, but the draping on practically every garment got kind of old after a while. Back to Christian, I liked him a LOT better than Jeffrey, the winner from Season 3.</p>

<p>I’m looking forward to no more Kenley. And while my Ds really like Leanne’s designs, Korto is my favorite to win. :)</p>

<p>I also liked Chris back on the Drag Queen challenge this season.</p>

<p>I’m wondering what the heck is going on in next weeks episode based on the previews with everyone looking so upset.</p>

<p>momonthehill – another vote for Jillian here. We were divided at our house last year (older D loved Christian, younger one Rami), but I loved Jillian’s runway collection at Bryant Park-- particularly the the knits and sweater outfits. Really charming, I thought, even though she often seemed somewhat grumpy.</p>

<p>I managed to get my SO addicted to Project Runway. We think pretty much every contestant is annoying (or at least edited to seem so) but Suede seemed genuinely nice. It’s true that he hasn’t done anything spectacular all season though. </p>

<p>The contestant I was happiest to see go was Stella, Ms. Leathah. </p>

<p>I remember reading somewhere that two contestants started dating during the show, but it didn’t say who. Anyone heard of this or have any guesses?</p>

<p>I saw Chris’ collection on the 'net. I really liked it, but I think he is afraid of success. I think using human hair was just shooting himself in the foot.</p>

<p>I loved Jillian last year.</p>

<p>This year I like Leanne. I have a pretty strong feeling that she’s going to win, based on seeing her runway collection from Bryant Park.</p>

<p>I feel a little sorry for Kenley, as immature and defensive as she is. I really don’t think she understands how offputting she is.</p>

<p>This has been my, and my son’s, favorite show since season 2, when we started watching it together. When we weren’t together on Wednesday nights, I would always tape it so we could watch it another time.</p>

<p>I very much miss watching it with him, now that he’s in college. (Sorry, he’s been at Chicago for less than a week, and I’m having a really hard time with the empty nest thing.)</p>

<p>Donna,</p>

<p>PM me if you want to talk. I have really gone through this with my son. It really is hard.</p>

<p>And he almost went of U of C, too. He’s a soph at Williams.</p>

<p>It can be very difficult, especially with the boys, I think, having had one of each go off.</p>

<p>Dating? Who?!</p>

<p>Okay - Google is your friend:</p>

<p>lspf72–I know what you mean about Jillian seeming reserved, and occasionally a little morose. But at least she wasn’t obnoxious to the other contestants.</p>

<p>And, speaking of morose, Daniel, from this season, always struck me as rather petulant. A few weeks ago, D2 showed me a youtube clip of Wesley and him being interviewed and it was nice to see that he (Daniel) actually had a somewhat charming side to his personality.</p>

<p>Korto, Jerrel & Leanne are very close in the running, I think. But I’m favoring Korto. She doesn’t have to rely on outrageous stuff to make an impact, and her seamstress skills are fierce – like Christian’s.</p>

<p>Hated Jeffrey! </p>

<p>I also had insomnia last night & caught Tim Gunn on Craig Ferguson’s show. He even admitted that he wanted to scream at the judges when Kenley wasn’t booted off. He also said that he has no contact at all with the judges, and is often tempted to correct some of the b.s. (of course Tim didn’t use that phrase) that the contestants are shoveling at the judges during their questioning.</p>

<p>^^agree, I thought Laura should have won that year…</p>

<p>I’ll be a contrarian and say I think Leann is another possible bounce-ee, as she also does the same look again and again… albeit a more edgy look…</p>

<p>I didn’t like Jeffrey at all, but that yellow plaid dress he made? Totally amazing. It’s one of the few items from any season that I still remember. I’d wear it. It was unusual and gorgeous.</p>

<p>I can’t believe I even googled “holla at cha boy” to see what it meant… I love watching such creative people but I wish
they’d slow the camera edits down a little and focus more on the clothes, not on the drama. By the way, another vote for Korto here- I think she is
very skilled and solid.</p>

<p>

YES! Particularly at Bryant Park - I can’t believe how little we actually saw of the clothes!</p>

<p>I’m certain Kenley will get kicked off next week because she doesn’t have any range, and the judges want the Bryant Park show to be interesting. Other than this, I can’t make a prediction about who I think will win of the remaining three. Haven’t they each won 2 challenges? And I don’t think you can dismiss Leanne as she won the Diane Von Furstenberg challenge. I loved that purple gown.

<p>no spoilers from me tonight :)</p>

<p>Eeek. I was just about to post about tonight’s show–
almost forgot about spoilers for West Coasters. Lips zipped!</p>

<p>But I will pose this question–
During the judging tonight, did anyone else notice that Heidi wasn’t wearing a shirt? (before any of you men out there get tooo excited, she WAS wearing a blazer) The black bra was nice, but still… unusual for a fashion program.</p>

<p>D2 noticed it immediately. S2 came in and said it reminded him of the Seinfeld episode – remember Sue Ellen Mischke?</p>
