I am so mad that I have to see Kenley again next week.

Granted, I'm still going to watch, but that's just because I love Leanne and Korto. Kenley can take a long walk off a short pier for all I care.

Ditto times 10.

YES! Seriously, I haven't really seen anything spectacular from Kenley, and her attitude overshadows her clothes. The judges should have just gotten rid of her. Jerrell could clean up his designs, 8 months(or however long the wait to Bryant Park is) will not clean up Kenley's attitude.

That's exactly what I said to my boyfriend last night while we were watching the end. He watched it for the first time last night (because he wanted to see why I was yelling at the TV last week) and he said he could not stand Kenley one bit. He knew immediately that she was the one I was yelling at.

What happened to Project Runway?? This is not HPRL, Heidi! CUT SOMEONE!

lol. Seriously when Kenley said "I wasn't trying to make it look elegant.....Heidi" I thought Heidi was gonna cut her (like literally cut her, not cut her from the show). I was waiting for the cursing in German and the bitch slapping. Obviously, I was disappointed.

agzg 10-02-2008 12:50 PM

It might have hit the cutting room floor. Because Heidi looked PIIIIIIIIISSED!

Fawn Liebowitz 10-02-2008 01:56 PM

I can't wait to see the collections, and to see if Korto left the dress in that Tim said looked "sexual" (I think it looked like a vajayjay to him - not that he sees a lot of them).

Here you go Fawn. The spoilers: http://nymag.com/fashion/fashionshow...trunwayleanne/

We still don't know which 3 actually competed nor who won. My money is still on Leanne.

I was ready to reach into the TV to slap her.

Pike/PhiDeltmom 10-02-2008 07:00 PM

Kenley....................It made me so happy that all three of the other designers made it very clear that she didn't belong in the top 3. The only time I've enjoyed looking at that snotty face in the past few weeks, was seeing her reaction as each designer shut her out.

AXi1257 10-02-2008 08:43 PM

I actually felt bad for Kenley when everyone was 'not so nice' and when Jerrell was making it so clear he disliked her. Hopefully when Kenley sees this aired she will see how she has been coming off and can change her attitude. I still like Leanne's collection. Not really impressed w/ Jerrell's at all.

Benzgirl 10-02-2008 08:54 PM

I'm sorry. I've observed Kenley through each episode (ok, so I've watched some more than once). She had it coming to her last night. NEVER, has she tried to reach out to the other designers. All she did was criticize and get snotty with everyone, including Tim, Heidi and the judges. In addition, most of the time, she didn't follow the challenge rules

When others would jump in and help a struggling designer, she would curl up her lip and come up with a degrading remark. I agree with Jerrell, she is a "one trick pony".

She won't change her attitude, she will see the show and blame the others for making her that way... that no one will understand because they weren't there and the whole world has been against her her entire life...

whiteandblack 10-02-2008 09:55 PM

^^^ I agree.

You're right of course, but I'm just trying to be optimistic. ;)

Benzgirl 10-03-2008 05:57 PM

Nobody mentioned her nasal voice.

pinksirfidel 10-04-2008 10:08 AM

Maybe its just me, but has anyone else noticed that the designers this season seem less talented than the past seasons? I remember being "wowed" in past seasons, with Jay, Daniel V, Santino, Jillian, Christian and Michael... :confused:

Not only that, but she openly laughed at her supposed friends in front of the judges!

Benzgirl 10-04-2008 12:34 PM

I'm dying. I Googled "Kenley Haters", and there are so many blogs on it.

KDAngel 10-06-2008 01:50 PM

I love Kenley's clothes and I loved her at first, but she really did start acting way too defensive and whiney. I still want her to at least make the final 3 though.

KSUViolet06 10-08-2008 10:00 PM

Wedding dresses: I loved LeAnne's wedding dress. It looked like something I could actually picture someone wearing for their wedding.

As far as the bridesmaids dresses, I liked all of them except for Jerrell's. I think LeAnne's was my favorite though. I don't like Kenley overall, but I'll admit that her bridesmaid dress was very wearable (the 50's silhouette worked well for this).

Korto's dress & bridesmaid dress didn't wow me tonight, but I still like her overall. I want her to win, but LeAnne is tough competition.

Scandia 10-08-2008 10:21 PM

Wedding dresses- loved Leanne's, Kenley's was okay, the other two I did not like at all.

Bridesmaid- loved Leanne's and Kenley's, Jerrell's was a bit too ornate, and Korto's was too plain.

It was a hard choice between Korto and Jerrell to be out. Not sure why they decided to keep Korto. Maybe because her wedding dress did not have a ridiculous hat. Maybe because her bridesmaid dress did seem okay per se, even though it was not fancy enough to be a bridesmaid dress otherwise.

I do hope Leanne wins. I think she won this challenge, though Kenley did a great job.

agzg 10-08-2008 10:30 PM

Kenley really turned it around for me tonight. I can't say I loved her wedding dress, but I can say her bridesmaid's dress was ADORABLE.

OH and I loved everything Leanne did tonight. And I like her collection. Leanne for the win!

chitownxo 10-08-2008 11:39 PM

Random thoughts:

Jerrel's sister is beautiful. I don't think he needs to look far for a model for his collection.

Korto's daughter is too cute, and I loved the colors in her collection.

After seeing Kenley at home and listening to her talk about her grandma, I think she's designing for her grandma on some strange level.

Leanne's wedding dress was my favorite, and Kenley's bridesmaid dress was killer.

I think Leanne will win.

Leslie Anne 10-09-2008 11:59 AM

I loved Leann's wedding dress! I couldn't believe how perfectly she was able to whip up such a cute bridesmaid's dress to go with it. I hope she wins it all.

I was disappointed that Jerrell didn't make it to the finale. I was looking forward to seeing his dresses on the runway.

PeppyGPhiB 10-09-2008 02:35 PM

I loved Kenley's and Leanne's wedding and bridesmaid dresses. I thought Jerrell's was terrible, especially his bridesmaid dress - it was just flat out UGLY. Jerrell's attitude has been bugging me just as much as Kenley's. I'm happy with the three that made it to Fashion Week.

epchick 10-09-2008 02:47 PM

I may be the only one, but I HATED Kenley's bridesmaid dress. Loved the color, but I would never allow my bridesmaids to ever wear such a short dress. Plus it just looked too plain. Like it should be on some 8 year old girl who's going to a party.

I dont' know what Korto was thinking, I think if she reworked the bridesmaid dress it would be better as a wedding dress.

I liked the color's of Jerrell's dress, and for some reason I thought the flower was a nice touch, but he didn't pull it off.

Leanne's was gorgeous, both of them!! I love the way she incorporated the waves into the bridesmaid dress. I really wanna see her collection.

Benzgirl 10-09-2008 05:15 PM

I want to buy everything Leanne makes, period. Again, after looking at the collections they all showed at Fashion Week, my bets are all on Leanimal!

I didn't full-out hate the dress, but it wasn't a bridesmaid's dress to me. Definitely too plain and short. It was cute, it just wasn't bridesmaid-y. And I didn't think her wedding dress was any great shakes either. Funny how Michael called it "Alexander McQueen" but never called Christian on that last season!

I didn't really like Jerrell or Korto's, but I didn't hate them. I've seen stuff just as over-the-top as Jerrell's in magazines. I liked that they did something different.

From what we saw last night, I think Leanne's going to win. Her collection seems to have more of that all-important "cohesiveness" that the judges love so much. Kenley's seemed kind of all over the place. I did like what I saw of Korto's though.

Benzgirl 10-09-2008 05:28 PM

Kenley's on left, Alexander McQueen on right:

Except for that hideous brown dress she made at the beginning of the season that had those weird loops hanging off of them!

I thought Kenley's dresses were fun, and I'd like to go to that wedding. The mood would have to be fun and zany!

I loved Leanne's dresses, they were so tasteful and lovely. The mood of that wedding would probably be all CLASS!!

Scandia 10-09-2008 06:56 PM

I can see the inspiration, but they cannot accuse Kenley of plagiarism. The dresses are too different.

AlphaXi_Husky 10-09-2008 11:10 PM

Despite not liking Kenley much previously (or at all), she wasn't bad this time around, and I LOVED her wedding dress. I thought her BM dress was pretty cute too. And of course I loved Leanne's dresses too - very elegant. I could pass on both Jerrell's and Korto's dresses, but from what I saw briefly of the collections I liked Korto's over Jerrell's. I'm so excited for the finale!

Seriously? How do you think those dresses are different? Cause Kenley added more tulle at the bottom?

I would definitely call that plagiarism, the similarities are too great.


And I much rather wear the Alexander McQueen dress than Kenley's dress. His looks much more polished and more sophisticated.

McQueen's dress looks better! Compared with Kenley's version, McQueen's is much more flattering! Look at the size of that model's waist!

OtterXO 10-10-2008 05:39 PM

Wow, when Michael Kors said it was a dead ringer for the McQueen dress I didn't think it was basically the exact same dress! Given that Kenley is obviously into fashion more than the average person you KNOW she had seen that dress before. That's so sketchy. Didn't Kenley even say something like "he didn't do this silhouette!" Right, because her silhouette is SOOOOO different.

PeppyGPhiB 10-10-2008 06:19 PM

I don't get what people thought was so plain about Kenley's bridesmaid dress. It was a tad short, but I thought it was perfect for a bridesmaid dress. But then I don't care for crystals and sexy sexy and spaghetti straps for a bridesmaid dress; I like pretty colors and clean looks, so her's was totally something I would pick out for my maids.

Benzgirl 10-10-2008 06:39 PM

Have y'all seen this http://projectrunway.auction.seenon.com/? They have final runway looks for Jerrell, Suede and Joe. I wonder why they let all three of them show at Fashion week?

Fashion Week has come and gone so I'm sure they all had to show as to have decoys on the actual final 3.
