Project Runway – response to a comment

Monday, October 13th, 2008

“Kenley is very damn talented and I’d let her dress me everyday of the week because she makes stuff that I would wear BUT it doesnt cover the fact that her attitude smells like rotten fish.

Yeah she has tough skin, but sometimes I feel like part of the reason why she has tough skin is because she knows her attitude is bad so she gets defensive when she is adressed about it.

Jerrell is super talented and i would have loved to see him be picked for fashion week but his wedding dress was way too ‘out there’.

I LOVED Leann’s wedding dress. I would either wear Her or Kenleys dress.”

Kenley's Wedding Dress

The countdown to this season’s Project Runway finale is riveting. I had my heart set on Jerrell for a while, because I admired his aesthetic throughout the show, but it seems that he does best when given direction, but if you give him too much freedom, he tends to go over the top. And as a result, last night he lost the wedding dress / bride’s mate’s dress challenge. We’re now down to top 3: Leanne, Korto and Kenley. I don’t know about you, but I’m rooting for the underdog Kenley. Her wedding dress is phenomenal and blows the rest of the contenders out of the water. As far as I’m concerned, that girl deserves to win. She has been ceaselessly berated for her attitude, but that tough skin has come in handy in her fight to the top. It sucks that the other competing designers have ostrasized her from the group, but that also served as a catalyst for her kick-ass final collection. Kenley went all out with hand-painted fabrics and beautifully crafted designs to really prove to the judges that her skills precede her personality. Vote for Kenley!
