I absolutely adored last night's episode of "Project Runway". The challenge was to produce an eco-friendly cocktail dress. Sounds easy enough Right? You know Ms. Heidi had to make it more challenging. The catch was that each contestant's model got to choose their fabric. Most of the contestants and models agreed on the fabric but Leanne. Leanne's model absolutely embarrassed her at judging when she expressed to the judges the dress wasn't exactly what she asked for. Nonetheless, Leanne is a great designer and her work speaks for itself. We all have slacker days right? Well atleast the weak do. Now on to the winner SUEDE!!


Suede's dress was excellent. He took common fabric and made it into a flirty cocktail dress that differed from everyone else's designs. Might we add Natalie Portman adored the dress also. Suede may be differentiating himself from the other's so they may want to watch out!! I must also say Jennifer's tangerine colored number was a fav of mine. The pairing of a bold color with a subtle color was great. The colors when displayed on the runway were DYNAMIC. Last, but definitely not least is Kienly. First, Kienly's clothes on the show are crazy. She gives me Dita Von Teese tease. If you haven't noticed get into her face and red lipstick. I love the way she took the simple gold fabric and gave it a couture touch with the high collar. I almost gagged when the judges asked Kienly about the couture touch. She nonchalantly stated: "I actually had to sew the collar on myself to make it couture". That was a bold but quirky, i love it kind of comment. Project Runway Season 5 is giving me LIFE right now. Let's keep up the good work Heidi. Why don't Heidi and Tyra just create a joint venture called "Models turned Moguls On Their Shit"! I'd go up for the company.
