| Jerrell's losing design |
| bravotv.com |
As the designers were sent off to their respective hometowns create a cohesive, 12-piece collection as well as a wedding gown to accompany said collection, they were all at their wit's end. That is, until Tim Gunn, the master of wit himself, came to the rescue for some housecalls. First stop: Korto. Tim gave her the thumbs up on the direction of her collection, but warned her that her gown was a dull look with drab color. Korto stuck by her guns, though, and ended up not changing a damn thing about her stone-gray, over-frilled gown. The other bits and pieces we got to see included natural tones, animal prints and handcrafted beadwork.
Gunn then visited Portland to see hippy-dippy Leanne and her aquatic-inspired collection. Leanne has a definite voice and signature style, and though it came off as drab in rushed challenges over the past 12 weeks, once you see what a few months time can do, she's the Season 5 front-runner, no doubt. On a somewhat unrelated note, Tim is the only human being who can make a bike helmet look simply adorable.
Jerell's collection was all about evening — he got that "editing eye" warning, but didn't heed it. And not so surprisingly, he's not going to Bryant Park. Also not so suprising (but still terribly upsetting): Kenley's coveted spot in the final three. She
hand-painted her fabrics, which will score her points, and it did look cool, but that Big Bird wedding dress which was "too McQueen" for Michael Kors still leaves hope that she won't win. "Kenley, I think of people hanging themselves," Gunn said as he looked at the rope trim on her dresses. When I look at Kenley, I think the same thing, Tim.
Back in Times Sqaure, Heidi had a the trick up her sleeve to entreat the exhausted designers: Bust out a bridesmaid dress to match their wedding gowns. After all was bitched and moaned, Leanne's gown stole my heart because it had pockets (!!!) and her dreamlike bridesmaid dress was the perfect fit. She knows how to be cohesive, which is more than essential for the final showdown. Korto's dress duo was just fugly all the way around, and though Kenley's looks were cute, they didn't go together. And, not that it matters, but Jerell's pieces were overworked and sloppily sewn.
So for the first time in ProjRunHist, we have an all-female final three! Maybe now we can finally figure out what the hell "girlicious" means.
great info, thanks!
