<p>my daughter commented that heidi forgot her blouse.</p>
<p>Hate that Kenley’s still around after her repetitive designs and nastiness to Tim, but I knew Suede was gone the second they called his boring… the PR judges will keep a bizarre flop over something unambitious and overly “safe” EVERY time unless the bizarre flop is practically falling apart, and even then sometimes!</p>
<p>Anyone else notice that when they designed for one another in season 2, the person who was eliminated was wearing the winning design, just like this time around? Heh, and now I’ve outed myself as truly Project Runway obsessed :)</p>
<p>Thanks for no spoilers, but I stayed away from CC until after the show;) Kind of a cop out that they have them do an entire collection and then decide. I understand that several decoy designers had collections at fashion week, so how does that work, you still do a collection and present it as a decoy, but you don’t count? But you still get great exposure?</p>
<p>When I first heard “design an evening gown,” I thought it was way too easy… and then they fell apart!! Every one of those gowns was u. g. l. y.</p>
<p>I looked at Jerrell’s and had the same reaction as Heidi - I wanted to reach into the TV and pull the darned thing up!</p>
<p>A while back they did have four go to Fashion Week (I think it was Season 3). I hate this “We can’t decide so design a collection that we won’t let you show” crap. They pulled this last year between Rami & Chris, too. Either make a decision or go again with four!</p>
<p>I think Jerrell should at least have immunity for winning the challenge.</p>
<p>I agree Chedva, we’ve heard that weak description before…we cannot decide, yadayada, if they want four of them, pick four of them, if they want three, make a decision</p>
<p>I also wondered about the black bra; no clue what that was about. I am so tired of listening to Kenley; I found it interesting that she said she has always been on the outside since she was a kid. Has she not realized that she is the problem, not everyone else?</p>
<p>Yup, another viewer mystified by the “blouse-less” look. But, hey, anything looks good on Heidi.</p>
<p>Kenley, Kenley, Kenley… even when they tried to draw her into the group hug… she just stood her stubborn ground. What a lonely way to live.</p>
<p>Last night was the finale. I thought all 3 collections were unimpressive.</p>
<p>Regarding the wedding dress challenge from the week before: If Jerrell thinks a woman anywhere would wear his horrible grey dress, he should not be designing clothing.</p>
<p>And this was the first finale in which I liked the collections! I thought they were actually clothes that women could wear. Although I was surprised about Leeann, given the horrible fit of that first blouse. </p>
<p>I do agree about Jerrell’s wedding dress, but then again I hated Kenley’s. I think they set up the “make a wedding dress” challenge because they really wanted the three women to go to Bryant Park, and they couldn’t in good conscience eliminate Jerrell on the basis of his evening gown (since they were all hideous). </p>
<p>And did anyone else notice that one of Korto’s models was Danielle, a winner of America’s Next Top Model a couple of seasons ago?</p>
<p>Chedva - my D2 froze the DVR on that model last night, we were sure that it was the ANTM winner but had forgotten her name.</p>
<p>I was pretty surprised about Leanne as well - all other things being equal I would have picked Korto because of the gorgeous use of colors.</p>
<p>The group that I watched the show with all thought Korto should have won. I could see real women of different ages/sizes wearing her stuff. sigh</p>
<p>Ditto. Leann was my favorite throughout the show, but I didn’t like (okay hated) the petals.</p>
<p>Ditto again - too many petals! I’m guessing the limited color palette probably had something do to with “cohesion,” but it seemed a bit bland.
Leanne’s clothes were beautifully made, but that aqua color kept reminding me of bridesmaid’s dresses. My vote would have been for Korto (I liked that green gown with the offset halter top–cool), though no one this season stood out too much for me.</p>
<p>I loved both Leanne and Korto’s collections, but I agree with the decision for Leanne. Her collection was cohesive, well-made, and just plain beautiful. Korto’s was beautiful, but some of her dresses were getting-close-to-pornographic short.</p>
<p>As for Kenley’s, well, I’m pretty sure my Barbie doll wore clothes like that.</p>
<p>But I did love Kenley’s beige dress with the flowers painted up the front!</p>
<p>I’m another one who liked all three collections… and was surprised that I did. Through a lot of the season, I thought LeAnn would/should be the one. I did think, thouth, that her final collection was too “one note”, as the judges said. But I would have been happy with any of them winning - even Kenley (did I just say that?). And I hated to see Korto lose.</p>
<p>Agree that I liked them all (did I just say that about Kenley - I always muted when she spoke since I could not stand her whine). But listening to the judges, even though LeAnn was a little one note - she had all the pieces, pants, shorts, tops, vest, coat, short and long dress. They hit on that and I think that did a lot for her. I really liked Korto but the one long dress she added at the end still had too much stuff going on and I think it doomed her. Leanne would listen to what they said and adjust. I am sure she will adjust the one note thing, too, in the future. The others had a harder time learning to use the criticisms.</p>
<p>I liked Leanne’s best and am glad she won. Yes, they were all thematically similar, but she did make a wide variety of types of clothing, and, besides, I like the colors she used. </p>
<p>Korto’s was great too, although there was one green dress I thought was alarmingly short.</p>
<p>Kenley’s? Nice, but I wasn’t crazy about a lot of them. Including the one hand-painted with flowers – I thought it looked too obvious that it had been painted by hand.</p>
