The Heat Is On Project Runway

October 2, 2008

Is it me or was last night's episode of Project Runway intense? Emotions are running high, as they normally do this close to the finale show. I liked the challenge — I love the New York Botanical Gardens (if you haven't been, go) — and the idea of creating evening gowns out of flora. Sounds easy right? You would think. But all the designers struggled with this one and didn't produce fabulous flowerful designs. I think guest judge Georgina Chapman, of Marchesa, was disappointed. Alas, next stop: Bryant Park!

I didn't really like Jerell's gown that much. I thought Leanne deserved to win this one. Korto's wasn't as bad as they said it was. I liked it. Kenley just gets on my nerves. I don't understand why the judges didn't send her home. Her dress looked like a witch costume from a cartoon.

I love Kenley no matter her attitude but i just think once she sees herself on T.V i think she will see that she can actually be a little rude and maybe she can correct her attitude a little. I think as a designer you should stand by your piece and talk about the positives about it not the negatives. I love her clothes and i hope she wins.

Well, I just finally saw the episode and am extremely upset at this "we're sending you all home" routine. Cut the crap and cut the weakest link at that moment. That's the point of the challenges. At this point, I don't care about who they think can put on a show. They don't have 12 days to make 12 looks. They have enough time to do well yet still make it crunch time. They all have a point of view and have shown their taste levels. What's the issue? I also don't agree with Jerell being on the chopping block considering he won the challenge. I'm sorry, but that's not fair. He (or anyone that would have been in this position) shouldn't be in that position. To make everyone else duke it out, fine. I'm sick of Kenley's attitude and I'm glad she apologized but actions will speak louder than words. I don't think this season was a lack of talent. There's definitely talent. I think going from last season of big collars, draping, cockiness, and everything that these designers look like they are "lacking talent". They lack confidence if anything.

I like Leanne's dress the best, but she shouldn't put that random fabric at the back. Kenley is so annoying, she should be out this week.. her dress was a disaster in my opinion. Overall I think this season is lacking talent

Sorry foxie but desidesi is right...Kenley has laughed at other designers on the runway on at least a few occasions that I can think of, which is extremely rude! I actually liked her at the beginning of the season but her inability to take any kind of constructive criticism & her flippant attitude towards everything & everyone (the judges, the other designers & especially Tim Gunn) has gotten out of control! My favorite part of the episode was when Michael Kors said she'd probably take out a knife & stab her client if they said they didn't like her design LOL

"I have never once seen her be rude to the other designers." What about when she laughed at two designers on the runway on separate occasions in front of the judges? Or when she ignored Leanne this episode?

While I agree that Kenley is pretty rude to the judges, I have never once seen her be rude to the other designers. I've only seen them all being totally petty and mean to her. I feel for Kenley, and I hope her collection kicks ass. I'm sick of Korto's bad attitude. I like how NONE of the designers smiled or rejoiced when told they'd be going to fashion week EXCEPT Kenley. Especially Korto, she had that same stupid scowl on her face.

I'm frustrated with the outcome. Kenley should have been out last week, she was disrespectful and continues to be. BS on that "I've had to fight for everything"! Clue: Most of us have, and we don't behave as rudely as that, especially to people who are trying to help us. I think she has some serious self-esteem issues, and I hope she is able to learn something from all of this.

So who got the boot? It doesn't air here so I can't watch!

Ugh. Kenley annoys me. I'm tempted to press mute when she speaks. Anyhow, I thought Leanne's dress was the best, aside from the odd blue fabric in the back. While I like Jarrell's, I thought that the dress was unflattering the way it fit on the bustline, and I thought the hemline was a mess.

mondaymoos 4 years 33 weeks

Me too, bbkf. I get so tired of "I've had to fight my whole life" as an excuse to be completely self-centered and downright rude. I definitely thought that the pretty lavendar gown should've been the winner, regardless of the random blue fabric in the back.
