4 Look Book Love: Project Runway's Leanne Marshall, Fall '09
Project Runway winner, Leanne Marshall, has unveiled her collection for Bluefly and it looks just as yummy as her final PR collection. Her femme, yet futuristic cuts, are amazing and I love the vibrant hues of pink, purple, and blue. Do you hear the whispers? That majestic tiered skirt is calling my name. Not only is this collection beautiful, it's eco-friendly as well — awesome. Leanne's Read more
Cities and Skylines. That's what Project Runway season five winner Leanne Marshall calls her Fall '09 collection. "This collection was inspired by the repetitive skyline of my new home-base, New York City, and the fantasy of glamour that one has when moving to a big metropolis," she explains on her website. Just as with the Spring line she created for the show, I'm once again thoroughly Read more
I'm totally infatuated with Project Runway season five winner Leanne Marshall's final collection. I loved how the palette was so restrained, just neutrals and a gorgeous turquoise; it really let the sculptural shape of the clothes shine. And although the collection did have an architectural quality, the pieces were still full of movement, with pleats that fluttered like a flock of birds bursting Read more
Now that Project Runway has closed out its fifth season by naming a new winner, it seems like a good time to look back on the Runway champions of past and present.

While we're waiting to see how Leanne uses her newfound fame, tell me: Which of Project Runway's Read more

Then, it was still six designers in the running, so I witnessed final collections by Joe, Jerell, Suede, Kenley, Korto, and Leanne. I still don't understand why this isn't planned better. I firmly believe only the final three should show at the tents. Plus, it's a waste of money. Anyway, another Read more
Project Runway's first all-female final three took to the catwalk tonight, as Korto, Leanne, and Kenley presented their final collections. Now, the fifth Runway winner has been revealed. Did the right person walk away with the title and the cash? Or was this a grave miscarriage of justice? I'll have more thoughts in the morning (update: it's here!), but for now, vote here (and watch out for Read more
This week, pleats added major drama to the Swapnil Shinde show at Lakmé Fashion Week Winter Festive 2011 Day in Mumbai, India. I love the 21st-century take on the classic fabric technique. Pleats come in many variations, including accordion, box, cartridge, fluted, and honeycomb; however, in its most basic form, a pleat is simply defined by folding a piece of fabric back on itself and then Read more
