Project Runway Season 5

[LetThemEatCake]

At least from the editing, Kenley's client covered her mouth when they were laughing about Joe. She probably started laughing because she loved Kenley. Did you hear when her and her mom first met Kenley at her table? The girl said something like, "I got the cool girl."

 

[glamorousenvy]

Either way her client was rather creepy, imo. Brings back memories of highschool, there was always that one weird girl who would do or say anything to be popular... thats what I was thinking about when she started laughing.

I also really wish that Leanne's client and her mother would have let her go with her original idea. Granted, she still wouldn't have had pants like the panel suggest but I think it would have been a much better look, rather than the final result.

I agree, the first version of the dress with the pattern on the front looked fabulous. The coat was sort of cute, but probably would have been cuter if it were longer, and didn't seem to fit the dress, which constantly nagged at me because of how it hung off the girl's hips for some reason. But she still managed to show her skill with what was given to her, which was a difficult client pair, and a limited budget/time.

I only saw the ending of last week's episode. I don't miss Joe his designs are forgettable and so are Suede's.

What's up with Kenley anyway? I'm all for confidence but she's not even the top three. She's borderline delusional.

 

[quijano]

Kenley's attitude is so disappointing. I used to like her but her bitchy-ness turned me off.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

^^At the start i liked her, now i just think she is a spoiled b*tch with no manners, STFU and take the constructive criticism and turn it in your favour, people like her sooo piss me off.

 

[quijano]

^I agree. Kenley thinks so highly of herself. Not only is she bitchy, but she's also haughty. And I didn't like how she rudely brushed off Tim Gunn.

 

[LUXXX]

Kenley's attitude is stank tonight! OMG...I would be nervous to act like she does in front of Tim and the judges.

 

[I_Want_That_One]

Kenley is still in high school. She's one of those people who when she realizes that she isn't the best starts to degrade and ridicule others. Like tonight, she KNEW her outfit wasn't hip-hop or even well made so she immediately blamed it on Leanne before the judges even said anything.

I'm disappointed with the judges too, they should have gotten rid of her a few episodes back and tonight just because of how rude she was to them.

 

[Spike413]

Kind of a fun challenge, kind of crappy results. I didn't love any of them, but Korto's was definitely the best, which is a shock because when she started bleaching those jeans I was expecting really, really bad results. TBH though they could've chosen better genre's for the designers to play with. How about things like glam rock, new wave, blues, jazz.....Or better than that, make the challenge something along the lines of the designers making each other over into musical icons. I mean, Korto as Nina Simone, come on!!!

But back to reality...

I don't get the praise they heeped on Jerrell's look, it was skanky, and not even in a tongue in cheek way.

I hate to praise Kenley, but I kind of see where she was going with it, very Ghetto Fabulous, Alicia Keys, Foxy Brown. Unfortunately it just wasn't cutting it.

Leanne's was a miss for me, I mean, if you're gonna do country then at least go for the fun Dolly Parton side of things. Yeah, it would be completely OTT, but Country is OTT so just own it. Fringe it, stud it, use colors, use those cutout stencilled yoke shapes.....go for it.

I actually didn't think Suede deserved to go home for his outfit tonight. I've thought he should've been eliminated many times before, but his outfit tonight just wasn't that bad imo.

I think the problem is that everyone was afraid of falling into the cliche trap, but the thing is, they were given cliches as inspiration so you're almost given free reign to play with them.

 

[dior_couture1245]

It was a fun challenge. I loved Korto's jeans for Suede....I mean, I would never wear them, but the bleaching turned out so well!

I actually thought it was a hilarious episode...everyone was so funny.

 

[glamorousenvy]

I actually didn't think Suede deserved to go home for his outfit tonight. I've thought he should've been eliminated many times before, but his outfit tonight just wasn't that bad imo.

I completely agree, only about his garment not being elimination worthy. I mean, he has been in the bottom three weeks in a row. Hes been seriously slacking and not pulling his own weight. Yes, Kenley may be a bit brash, but I prefer most of her design concepts over Suedes. Its as if half the time he is either too scared to be bold and stand out, or just lacks creative innovation.

Really, its just silly. We all know Kenley is going home next week.. I wish they wouldn't try to hide it so much in the previews. Although I guess there are perhaps some Kenley lovers out there rooting for her, and her sassafrass, ungreatful skank mouth.

 

[December_25th]

I loved Tim this episode! His reaction at the designers in their outfits was hilarious. Next week looks intense!

 

[LUXXX]

All the outfits were pretty disappointing overall, but it's obvious that Leann, Korto and Jerrell deserve to go to Bryant Park.

Kenley should've got the boot last night for her hot mess of a personality, that is like the 3rd week in a row she has done that!

 

[metrochic]

My least favorite tonight, I hate to say, was Leanne's outfit. That gold belt..it was channeling wonder woman or something. But i still love her and think she derserves to go to BP. I don't think Suede's was terrible just not edgy enough. It's true when the judges said Jerrel looks like Jerrel.
Ugh can't believe Kenley didn't get booted...she's just so ungrateful, immature, and disrespectful. She needs to listen to constructive criticism.
Why is everyone crying in next week's ep preview? Can't wait to see that!

 

[Juliet Capulet]

in desperate need of respect and an attitude adjustment

I agree with you, and everyone else who has posted similar about Kenley. She is acting like a bratty child. Ive watched all 5 seasons of Project Runway and Kenley is, to me, the most immature and inappropriate designer they've had on the show. She's in her mid-20s; there really is no excuse for her behavior imo; acting like she did around her mentor and the judges - who have more experience in fashion than years she has been alive - is SO wrong. Very disappointing. Im really hoping she goes next week~

More than likely they're all being told they're going to Bryant Park.

last night, LL. Just a sec. FINE. Fiiiiine. Love that man. Wish he'd been sitting there shirtless.
And Jerrell's adorable. No comment on the rest of the show. Just wish LL had had more screen time.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

I think it was such a fun challenge, but some totally missed it, SOOO glad Suede is out and his speaking in third person,ugh.

But did anyone else seriously laugh, when Kenley was showing them the outfit and going; "right, its totally HIP-HOP right, Jerrel?" and he was like; *makes a wtf face* "yaaaaaa". She had NOOO idea lmao, hahah it showed once again how ignorant she is.

 

[glamorousenvy]

Did anybody notice how they kept zooming in on Jerrell's crotch?? Those pants were just a tad bit tight, you could see everything! I'm surprised Jerrell didn't feel uncomfortable, or atleast place his hands in front of his crotch in a non-attention averting manner.

 

[Miss Dalloway]

^^What?He did place his hands in one close up.
