PROJECT RUNWAY
SPOILAGE
Jibberjabber, teeter-totter, stingclaw fodder, pitter-patter, garlic dill pickles and root beer would really hit the spot -- don't ask me what spot, though. Moo moo, oink oink hee-haw marjorie daw, singdaw's sister I guess. After seeing the runway show in action last night, I have to say I'd have been fine with any of the designers being declared the winner. I never thought I would ever be one to defend Kenley, but I have to say I think the judging panel was a bit too narrowly focused on Kenley's hand-painted fabric and not on her designs. So what if other designers had a line of all hand-painted fabrics a season or three back? Do they own a copyright on handpainted fabric? No...it's been with us for centuries. So if Kenley's fabric was the issue, why wasn't ALL fabric an issue since ALL designers use fabric. No...it's DESIGN here that matters and not whether it's handpainted or uses feathers (Chris March used feathers last season, too). In truth, I rather liked Kenley's collection better than the others. SUE ME! I also liked Laura Bennett's collection better than Michael's or Jeffrey's two seasons ago....but I couldn't stand Laura, so I was happy Jeffrey won! I liked Korto's collection, but I wasn't wild about her fabrics. And NO ONE mentioned the obscene shortness of that ultra-mini skirt? REALLY? Oh, my! Leanne was a good choice and she had some wonderful elements, but Michael Kors was right about those petals (I think Leanne thought of them as "waves") being a bit too much. Still, she showed great versatility and variety in her line and she was a deserving winner, just as either of the other two would have been. IMO, of course. Don't snark me, I'm skittish! What was that? You fiend! Slapjaw, snapdraw, scrapclaw! I'll blame Jose.
