finals

so we are down to the final 3. we have kenley. Leanne. aaaannnd Korto. Tim did his field trips to each of the final contestants houses to critique what they had done so far and spend some bonding time with the winners. honestly a day to play with tim would be as big to me as the fashion week show. he listened to African drums with korto, went on a bikeride with leanne. worried over jerell's fishnet met his fam. and when he went to kenley's he like what he saw, and left, there were no friends to visit with no day date. needless to say, im thinking tim does not like her either. understandably i suppose. korto leanne and jerell shared laughs hugs and tearful good lucks and goodbyes....kenley well she just left pissed and nose up in the air. Only to return, with a "sorry im a bitch" huh.

now one of the things for the line this year was a required wedding dress and in true proj fashion they threw out another challenge shortly before the next elimination, how they didnt see this coming once again proves they need to watch the show and do some more reasearch. they had to make a bridesmaid dress as well. and they would be judged on the two on the runway. mind you the top 6 are showing not matter what to keep the winner a secret as fashion week has come and gone.

jerell went home - his dresses has a good idea behind them but in the end it didnt look right on the model the top was wayyy to low, and the jewel encrusted layered intricacies of the dress looked more slapped on and muddled than ornate . the crumbley fabrics look wrinkly and sloppy more than fun and texturied.. and the wedding dress boob wings bugged the heck out of me. the flower head piece thing was cartoony. but the colors were pretty and in theory i liked the idea of the jewels and jewel tone colors. ugh. maybe i am just really biased by kenleys sour attitude. i dunno.


kenley did a feathery 50s style dress. bbbbbbig surprise. i thought it was funny when she got mad at people for shortening hems of bridesmaid dresses stating that they were copying her or stealing her ideas or something....right kenley really calling dibs on short bridesmaid dress hems, open a brides magazine, not that original worry. and hey look the bridesmaid dress was a blue 50s style just bubbled and a short hem. it tied in and wasn't crazy and didn't have any details to mess up and bog her down. it was a pretty color, it fit in and was clean in lines. but just like everything and anything else she does. and shes still snooty and was mean to tim, so i am steadfast in my anti kenley mentality. im stubborn i know. whatev.


Korto worried me. she is the one i want to win ( sorry i jinxed you now) her line is pretty, great colors and fun. but these dresses did not fit in the line. she has two polar end here the wedding dress. people ragged on the color but i wasnt against it. what i was against was trying to hard to prove you can do details and completely bogging down the dress with a ruffled mess. on the other hand you had the too simple bridesmaid dress. i think the skirt needed to be more fitted to sophisticate it a bit maybe it just seemed more like a simple summer dress in a fancy color. i dunno it was missing something to make it a brides maid dress, and it was too simple for the judges maybe it need more shine the khaki was kinda drab it need a little something something.



Leanne- her dresses fit in well with the rest of the line, they were interesting and were deff her without being too repetitive. the detail in construction a draping were soft and romantic but still intricately structured, with out being stiff or overworked. the mix of structure and flowy fabrics created an interesting dynamic, shes got the technical skills for sure. of all of them her dresses looked like they belonged in a wedding, and they worked well together.
