Project Runway Finds Their Final Three

So I'm a little behind on the commentary but the holiday set me back a day (have we all properly atoned?). I did watch the penultimate episode of Project Runway on Wednesday night and I felt a little better about three of the candidates than I did last week which is definitely a step in the right direction. I also finally think that the judges made the right decision - although Kenley's attitude is still questionable, it was not nearly as questionable as Jerell's taste. Left to run amok for two months, Jerell seemed to have found his way to the tacky side - the few glimpses we got of his collection involved a lot of mesh and bedazzles. The judges correctly guessed from the jeweled cups on his wedding dress that tackiness would reign in his overall collection and I think he deserved to be the odd man out. Now Korto's wedding dress was a disaster as well but at least from having seen glimpses of her collection, we know that it's not really representative of the other pieces. It will still probably sink her in the finale but at least she gets her place at Bryant Park.

Now Kenley's dresses were cute and there seems like there may be a few more cute pieces in her collection but I was really impressed with Leanne. Leanne's wedding dress (as pictured, thanks about.com) was really stunning with its angular architectural details that still managed to project an overall grace. I also really liked her bridesmaid dress (not that it would fit me but it is certainly more elegant than some bridesmaid dresses I have worn) and her overall scheme for her collection. Unless the judges view the color palate and details as too repetitive, I think Leanne may be walking home with the Project Runway crown. We'll see next week!
