Project Runway, the legend episode

[spoilers, people, otherwise, what's the point?]

This week the designers used Diane Von Furstenberg (spellcheck wants me to use “Guttenberg”–ha, make an outfit for Steve Guttenberg) fabrics to make an outfit, in order to promote her new line and American Express. Is anyone else tired of the product placement going on this season?

I was hoping for another COLD fashion diva judge like last season (who was that Italian with the attitude?), but Diane seemed practically normal. In a crazy, rich bitch, fashionista way. Well, maybe they are better than all the rest of us. They certainly look more put-together. I wonder with the plastic surgery if they have no choice but to look down their noses at us?

leanne1.jpgCutting to the chase, Leanne did an excellent job and won (she totally wasted her immunity from last week). Even I would wear her outfit (not sure that’s a compliment).

kenley.jpgKenley, the weeper, was crying BEFORE the challenge even began. Does she seem a little…oh, how do you say…nutso? Laughing uncontrollably one show, then crying jags. She seems to be cracking under the pressure.

I thought she’d win this one given the “backstory” of the new clothing line was a 40′s feel (or get kicked out! Now that would be good tv!). She might have won if she’d just made more than a dress when all the others were cramming 3 and 4 piece ensembles together. Okay, sloppily, yes, but they were.

Stella, who made an odd magician/Brit/biker outfit, was out and clearly relieved. She merrily said, “My ego is way too big to be here anyway.” Yup, her ego wrapped in leather takes a lot of space.

I’m gonna miss her hammering.

Meanwhile, Joe and Suede better snap to it. They seem to be edging closer to the exit door each show. Like, finally.

  1. Suede’s need to reference himself in the third person is starting to get under my skin. And tan “ilicious” boy too. They aren’t eccentric enough to be entertaining. I want Kelly back. Kenley might need meditation instruction. Or meds.

    I’ll miss Stella too. Kind of, although wow, she kind of redefined whiny for me…

    Phew.

  2. Leanne is surprising. I actually picked her to win the last 2 times. I just keep wishing somebody would give her a freaking makeover already.

    And I still think Kenley is cute as as button.

  3. tracy, yes! I think those boys need more talent to back up their “eccentricities.”

    diesel, if Leanne keeps it up, she might just take the title. Finally, a gal could win this deal! (“gal”–like that?)

  4. Suede does need to get his act together. He’s my daughter’s favorite, so I would hate to see him go.
    Love, love, love PR.

  5. Like Kenley at first and usually love her clothes, but she seems to have this ego that she will win.

    My husband actually watched this one with me and I knew the waterworks were coming if she didn’t win.

    Scout says she’s too-too high strung-a-licious.
