Last night we got a glimpse of the Project Runway designers’ final collections that will be making their way down the crisp, white runway at Bryant Park. I cannot recall whether I was more excited to see Christian’s “fierce” collection in Season 4 or now Leanne’s wave-inspired garments this season. But last night’s episode made me very excited about what lies beneath the white tents. Here are my favorite moments from the Season Finale Part 1 episode:
1. Leanne’s bridal and bridesmaid combination were to die for. As the camera panned from bottom to top of Leanne’s bridal gown, I was more and more intrigued. The bodice was absolutely gorgeous and the pocket detail was an unexpected touch. Her soft aqua bridesmaid’s dress complimented the gown beautifully.
2. Tim Gunn riding a bicycle. He is by far the cutest man on television. Tim, can you please be my friend?
3. The story of Korto’s childhood and how she embraces her past. Korto seems so grounded and a genuinely good person who won’t take crap from anyone but will also leave things in the past. I have even more respect for her as a designer.
4. We have to mention Korto’s color palette of rich gold, chartreuse, and emerald green that was inspired by her surroundings.
5. Kenley’s Brooklyn apartment and improved attitude. Did she finally respect Tim Gunn’s opinion? Good girl. But maybe that’s because he sang her praises. I thought her quintessential Brooklyn digs were livable and perfect for an upcoming designer.
6. Jerell’s sweet and supportive family who only wants to see him succeed in a creative field that he is passionate about.
Dear Jerell was auf’d last night but his dreams were not entirely shattered because the final six contestants actually got to show at Bryant Park. I’m tempted to view the final collections but trying really hard to restrain myself. If you like, you can view them here (but don’t say I didn’t warn you 
). And if you are getting married soon and love Jerell’s dress, it’s currently up for auction at $205. I think that’s a steal!
What were your favorite moments from last night?

Leanne’s bridal gown was to die for amazing! It was so, so gorgeous with it’s architectural movement, fluid movement, and ethereal feel. She really shut it down.
Korto’s color palette is so beautiful and bold. I’m sad that Jerrell didn’t make it further, but I didn’t like his designs in this challenge. Poor guy. I wish him all the best.

Wouldn’t it be great to have Tim on speed dial?! Leanne did an amazing job with her dresses, and I patiently await (no peeking for me, either) the runway show to see what everyone showed at Fashion Week.
I was sorry to see Jerrell go, but he handled his exit gracefully and I wish him well.

we gave leanne the wave when we saw her collection. the wedding dress was unbelievable. i also loved when tim gave the designers the speech and just about everyone was in tears. makes you remember how hard it is.

I lovelovelove Leanne and her designs. What a wedding dress! Kenley annoys me of course, but I bet she’ll come out of this whole experience, a changed person.
