Project Runway's winner, Leanne Marshall is being called the little mouse who roared after taking home the mega prizes and a spread in Elle for her "petal" fashions. Leanne called them "inspired by waves", but, everyone ignored that. Whatever they were inspired by, they were her own and I had her pegged as the winner before the finale because she was the only one who understood relative art in a show. Done deal, even though I liked some of the other designs better personally. But, I was just outraged at runner up, Kenely Collins. OUT-RAGED! Wearing absurd bouncy feathers in your hair does not detract me from the fact that you showed designs that were not your own. The woman was busted twice for it. Once, and you can plead (ineffectively) ignorance, but, twice??? It's pretty bad when some chick in Iowa wearing her garage sale fake Lohan leggings recognizes "your" designs from an Oscars dress and Yahoo fashion pages. Asshole. She should have been kicked out, right then and the only prize the plagiarizer deserved was a subscription to People magazine. There's your recommended "fashion history" class, you fake! I'm still mad, can you tell? Project Rip-Off can kiss my ass if that's how they play.

Don't like any of them, the top white one is the only one slightly wearable.
Totally agree with you she should have been kicked off the show for that. Would have made for great tv is they had gotten the orginal designer in to do the deed lol
Yes, but, she (Kennely) had the strongest personality this season. That's why they would keep her around. There have been others who have made seemingly knockoff, like Laura from two seasons ago with her Yves Saint Laurent look.
I liked all three of the collections and thought is was a bit tougher descision than you did DD. Korto did a nice job as well. All in all, I think Leanne deserved to win.
P.S. I was underwhelmed by what Kennely wore to her New York Fashion Week Show. She seemed very underdressed to me.
Was it Tim Gunn that suggessted she take a fashion history course? Has she never studied that? She said she doesn't look at other designers. She was busted for that by Kors that said to be successful you HAVE to know whats going on in fashion. I love this show. Never missed it. I watch every marathon thats on. How about when Heidi was visually pissed that J-Lo didn't show at the last second. Tim Gunn was awesome and stepped right in. Which scared Kenly, 'cuz she had been so shitty with him on many occasions. Read his blog. Some of those "conversations" he had with her lasted 20 minutes. Where she's giving him hell for trying to help. I hate the nasally, self important bitch. She should have kicked for making that ridic "Hip-Hop" catastrophe she made Leanna wear. It was the worst. Yet, Sued got kicked? No one on the PR blogs could wrap their head around that botched decision. It was clearly to keep some drama on the show with Kenley. She sux and is not a nice person. Leanne was always just minding her own biznaz, doing her work. Kenley didn't like her at all! I am so glad how this worked out. Altho, none of the designers were all that outstanding this season. I hope Lifetime doesn't muck it up!

anon 2:24...you're welcome!!! xo
Really glad Leeanne won because she deserved it. Actually I'm surprised Ms. K. got as far as she did in the contest. She's not exactly an original anything.
Yay Leanne! Not bitchy or contrary? What? No buzz phrases like "fierce or "xxxalicious?" Just taking advice from professionals? What th'? And you won? See you later. And hopefully you'll make me a sassy skirt. Nicely done, her.
Um, so i've never watched this show in my life, but the winner could use a makeover like the USA could use a time machine to go back 8 years & re-elect.
SEEEERIOUSLY. Ew.
