project runway - season 5

[dav242]

Yay, so so so happy Leanne won! My favorite from the beginning! Haha...how pissed is her original model.

Overall, a lackluster season, but the final 3 was exciting. I really wonder how well this show will do on Lifetime...

Oh, anybody notice Dani and Bianca from ANTM? I saw Naima at the model audition (thank god she wasn't chosen). Also, Shannon from Make Me a Supermodel tried out. And I think that scary Amanda chick from a few seasons ago walked fro Korto.

hey yeahwhatever - i definitely caught dani and bianca in korto's show -

all 6 runway shows are on YouTube (jerrell, joe, and suede had the "dummy" collections).

KORTO:

i loved seeing dani in the show - barely recognized her. she totally fit in flawlessly with the "real models."

as for bianca - that girl definitely stuck out like a sore thumb. glad that she's booking jobs, but she still has that stank attitude, although she's clearly toned down her stanky walk.

also - yeahwhatever - check out jerrell's show - he totally booked eugena washington (from antm cycle 7) - one of my faves from that cycle. she opened his show and looked great too, although jerrell's line left little to be desired.

i think leanne's win was well deserved, although i think they should've crowned korto because (although i hate to play the race card) this show could use a black designer winner.

LEANNE:

and to the above comment about leanne being the most forgettable - i have to disagree 100%.

chloe dao TAKES THE CAKE as the MOST overrated, forgettable, blah designer ever to win project runway.

hell, i think chloe's still in texas, working on her damn sportswear store, making boring uninspired but sell-able pieces, and probably using the money she won for things that are completely unrelated to art, fashion or design...

of the three i really did like leann's the best. the color palate, the silhouettes... it was all very pleasing to the eye. congrats to leann on her win!

Wow, I had no idea you watched this (lol) but to me LeAnn's collection was AMAZING, and certainly the most deserving of the win.

Also, I'm glad Kenley got eliminated first but I wish there had been a reunion show so we could properly see that bitch get her comeuppance. Man I hated her.

LeAnn is now my 2nd favorite winner after Christian. Jeffrey (Season 3) is still my least favorite.

lol nor did I ever know that you watch this. I rarely comment on this because (unlike social strategy) I know nothing about fashion and I'm well aware of it. I'm too practical for these things. For instant when I see something like LeAnne's collection my thought is... "Why the fuck does everything have gills?"

As far as favorite winners they're probably in the same order as your but I've only seen the last 3 seasons.

Was glad to see Leann win. Liked Korto more, but either way was happy that the bitch Kenley didn't win. You can't become a fashion designer without knowing what other designers are doing. People will think that you are copying off of them, and you can't use the excuse "Well I didn't know."

I think Leanne won over Korto because her collection was more cohesive. Korto's dresses didn't relate to each other as well as Leanne's did.

Remember Christian last year and the feathers?

Also Leanne showed pants and another separates outfit. They like variety.

And, though Kenley designed some great outfits, I saw very little cohesion in her collection.

Jerrell's collection was just sad. I thought I really liked that dark gray jersey gown until the model turned around and that design on the back kept wiggling back and forth with the model's ass.

Here's Kenley's Balenciaga/McQueen copies.

 

[lovaboi]

that person that I thought should win won so I'm pleased but otherwise
leanne's color palette could have been changed, they weren't the prettiest ones

korto's collection seemed lackluster to the designs she had for competitions

and Kenley copied the mcqueen dress and the balenciaga flowered shoulder dress and ''hand painting''

I hate jeffrey so much
and would have loved Jillian over christian
not that christian doesnt have talent but once he worked for Alexander mcqueen
the influenced leeked into all of his designs
he is just another pseudo mcqueen

 

[Littleathquakes]

HAHAHA Kenley pretty much turned herself in. She's always pretending like she's unaware of other designers when confronted about her copycat designs, but she admitted herself that she tried to sneak into the tents at fashion week and got kicked out last year!

 

[SFLMAN]

It was a lackluster season 5. I'm surprised Leanne won. Her colors are so muted. The judges were wondering if she's only going to be a one trick pony.

Korto's collection was missing something.

Kenley's collection was nice. Despite the fact that she copied another designer. Her colors were very pretty and the hand painting was very nice.

I heard Season 6 was supposed to start in January on Lifetime, but the producers of the show are supposedly suing. So I guess the show is done. That's a shame!
