Leanne, Emily & Suede

Shitfire, there's a ton of dresses! Let's MOVE IT!



"I'm the silent fashion assassin."

Honey. Parading around the Ren Faire in your homemade Arwen costume doesn't make you badass. Let's look at your portfolio, shall we?

A little too cute and a little overworked, but there's talent there.


Model: Karalyn

Didn't love it. Again, it's a little too cute and a little overworked. We do like how she handled the coffee filters, though.


But that's just a monstrosity. It looks like it weighs ten pounds and that poor girl will be wearing nothing but a syrupy frock if the temperature ever went above 90.


Who?

Were the producers fucking with us when they picked a half-dozen designers that look alike? Is there going to be a surprise reveal halfway through the season that these girls are all sextuplets or something, like that show on TLC where that cute biracial couple gave birth to a litter of biracial children and now all they do is yell at each other and not have sex?


We like. Basic, but chic. These portfolios don't always demonstrate a lot of restraint, so it's nice to see it here.

Speaking of restraint...

Model: Leslie

That's the opposite of it.


The ONLY positive thing we can say about this look is that she demonstrated a fine sense of color. The hues in that collar are fun.


And we suspect the collar itself is supposed to be fun but it looks like a centerpiece at a middle school dance. It's just a little too arts-and-crafty. It doesn't help that the dress isn't exactly memorable and she didn't manage to make anything look more expensive than it was.


"I got tired of making millions for the rest of the world and decided Suede needed to make millions for Suede and Suede is gonna rock it. Yeah!! Whackadoodle!!"

There's one word from that quote with which we totally agree. Guess it.


Not our taste, but it looks polished. It also looks like an ad for Jordache from the '80s.


And our little Suede may just be a crier. He definitely looked like he wanted to sit down with a box of Kleenex and have a good one after Tim eviscerated him. Don't let us down, girl. Tears, and lots of them.


Model: Tia

Meh.

It's not horrible, but it's certainly not worthy of any real praise. Basic, basic, basic.


A big problem is the "fabric" itself. There was simply no way to disguise that it came from a cheap tablecloth. The little last-minute additions didn't really help hide that.


Nor did the fact that it looks like he just wrapped it around her and stapled it up the back.

Not an impressive first effort. Suede needs to step it up for Suede or Suede is going home.

Yeah!!

Whackadoodle!!

Feh, I hated each one.

Suede disturbs me, and his model looks like the confetti factory blew up on her.

Sextuplets, hah! But for the first half hour I was confused about how many designers there were because I thought that 3 of those women were just one person.

And when she said fashion assassin... I was wondering whether that was the new, updated version of Angela's "off the grid." Honey, we all know that that didn't do Angela any favors. Step away from the fleurchons.

Sewhat? said...

Yeeeessss, I don't think our "Blue Cockatoo" is going to let us down this year !!!

Ithought his initial choice of 'fabric' was lame/lazy/weak, but his recovery after Tim's intervention was fairly inspired. His dress certainly ended up more wear-worthy than many of the others.

Sewing Siren said...

I agree about them having cast similar looking people, it sure makes it confusing. If you have a twin on the show you better step it up to distinguish yourself.
I didn't like Leanne's at all, except maybe the coffee filter treatment on the bodice, Kelli shound have done that on hers. The skirt looks like she has a cold and has overstuffed her pockets with tissues, just in case.
I don't care for Emily's either, maybe if the ruff thing around the neck had been at the hem, for a cha cha look.. And I don't like the loose fit around the waist either. She was lucky that there were some others that were far worse.
Suede's isn't that bad from a distance. He lucked out with the model too.I kind of like the blue squares and how he used them like sequins. From were I stand he did a decent job fitting it to the model.I think he should have had her carrying a pic-nic basket down the runway, tongue in cheek. Unfortunately for Suede I think the camera has chosen the other weirdo to be the "weirdo" this season. Suede seems to be an actual designer though not just an attention seeker.

whowontherabbit said...

I actually sort of...liked Leanne's dress? I just found it more interesting than a lot of the others. It was cute. (A little bit TOO cute, yes, but still.)
I remember that in Jerry's interviews after he got eliminated, he said something about Emily's and Blayne's designs being very design student-y--sort of interesting, but completely unwearable and sort of ugly. I didn't like Jerry, but I agree.
As for Suede, I'm sure there are quite a few corny "Whackadoodle" puns in there somewhere.

"And our little Suede may just be a crier. He definitely looked like he wanted to sit down with a box of Kleenex and have a good one after Tim eviscerated him. Don't let us down, girl. Tears, and lots of them."

Well, if this group of designers don't knock it off with "let's glue shit on it to make it seem unique", I can expect tears from Suede and others as Tim unleashes a tsunami of sartorial criticism.

A previous poster alluded to the "Elisa wager" of doing something so crazy that the judges don't know what to think and let them stay. Some of these designers look like they are making the "Santino wager". Let's hope an upcoming episode does not include an exploding turkey in the ice capades outfit redux.

Mom said...

I think I would really like Suede as a reality-TV-show personality if he just stopped trying so hard to be "memorable"!

Leanne is adorable and, I suspect, harbors an Inner Subversive, but yeah, she didn't blow me away on the first go-around. And Emily Who sounds about right.

Always willing to be persuaded to change my mind, though. That's why a season lasts more than one show!

Cipher said...

Leeane stuff is so surreal! I mean Hello Dali!

Whatev.

Daxx said...

Didn't care much for any of the users of "fabric" as I think it is always a cop out. Case in point, Keith from S3 and the bedspread. You should not win for wrapping someone in a sheet/tablecloth, etc.

OK, bitch fit over. Curious as to why almost everyone who did use real fabric ended up doing wrap dresses (except the lovely kimono). If you;re going to take the easy route, do something memorable.

Anonymous said...

Suede's dress wasn't fooling anyone. It's lunch and I'm hungry. Lay that model down on the floor and roll out the tablecloth. Cheese and crackers anyone?

SUS said...

Man, those were some piss-poor dresses. Emily's needed some editing and maybe would have been OK.

Emily's whole personal look was... so interesting -- like a jazz dance troupe costume. I saw some headbands in the season previews, so there might be more spangly flapperwear in the future!

Suede's bravado did not match Suede's output. There will definitely be a Suede/Blayne run-off to see who is the most annoying S5 contestant.

The dresses the designers came up with for this challenge just make Austin's corn husk number look more and more genius.

I don't like any of them and by the way, has Suede told Suede that he's freaking annoying yet?

I hated the candy dress and she's way too Pollyanna for my taste.

FashionFanatic said...

They're OK, nothing special and I think there's going to be a competition between Blayne de Soleil and Suede over who is the most fierce.

GothamTomato said...

I'm actually liking Emily's high collar dress. It's a little like Queen Elizabeth I goes to Danceteria.

--GothamTomato

Mike B. said...

Nothing to hate in Suede's, exactly. He's just one of those mildly talented people who will go home sometime toward the end of the first half of the season, once it's no longer enough to stay beneath the radar.

Emily and Leanne might get the benefit of the doubt; the unusual-materials challenges are tough and they both clearly pushed themselves. But if they don't substantially improve on this performance next week, they're both going to end up on the chopping block almost instantly. These are the only two dresses other than the bottom three that I actively disliked.

Gorgeous Things said...

"He definitely looked like he wanted to sit down with a box of Kleenex and have a good one after Tim eviscerated him. "

Well fergodsake, what did he expect after making a dress that looks like one of Maryann's rejects from Gilligan's Island?

Whackadoodle doo!

Correcting someone's spelling of the word "wackadoodle" is just about the height of humorless.

Look at the picture of Suede (God, I hate to even write that as a name), next to his dress form. Look at the blue ruffle on his so-called dress. Now look at his hair. Or is it really hair? Perhaps he got a jump start on the challenge and sewed some doggie bags to his head.

Just a theory I am throwing out there.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was confused with many of the designers looking alike.....
Suede's was a disaster....and definitely he was a whiner, really? you didn't see the first episode ever before going to the show?? and you didn't think they could do it again? maybe have a little plan? oy.....

Brooklyn Bomber said...

Uh. . . whackadoodle?

FAB commentary, Boys. . . i wonder if I think that because I agree with absolutely everything you said.

Re "that show on TLC where that cute biracial couple gave birth to a litter of biracial children. . . "

WHY is it on all the freaking time? Are that many people interested? And why on earth is it on more than What Not To Wear?

Anonymous said...

We do have a lot of lookalike gal designers this season....separated at birth, peut-etre?

Suede - I just can't get past his name. When will he wear the matching blue shoes?

I am still amazed that this group went to the same store as the PR1 designers, and were so much less creative in terms of materials.

Brooklyn Bomber said...

Gotham said, "... Danceteria."

Danceteria!!! I suddenly feel quite old.

Stubenville said...

So much to dislike, so little time...

Leanne - her portfolio looks like a Simplicity catalog. And the fit on her model; did you see the hips? Are they supposed to demonstrate the after effects of the candy? And yea, gluing crap to a bad dress just reeks of desperation. I see her as the Diana Eng of Season 5.

Emily - I think there is promise there but I immediately heard St. Tim saying "Clown clothes" when her look went down the runway. A little calliope music to accompany her model perhaps?

Suede. I just want to slap him and tell him to focus on the garments and to stop trying to be "unique". Lose the hair, lose the goofy name, drop the third party references; they are all so annoying! You may be a queen honey, but you're not the Queen. And ditto on the comment above about adding crap to a garment to try to disguise how badly it smells. The judges see right through it; that NEVER works. And it was karmic that Suede's garment was made from doggie poo bags; it belonged in one.

Hutchlover said...

Who's the one with the glasses? Is that LeAnne? She's cute! But that pink hot mess was a.... sticky hot mess.

I didn't mind Emily's (?) dress. It showed great use of color restraint. The fun colors of the collar were perfect against the subdued pale gold of the tablecloth. But yeah, it looks like an art project.

Suede... meh, is right. And he's the local guy from Seven Hills. Not as obnoxious as Blayne, but still trying too hard to be a "personality".

None of the dresses were that amazing. They all were tableclothes made into dresses and when Tim came in, all three designers flipped and decided that they needed to glue ridiculous stuff to the dress to make it "different"...none of there ideas worked especially Suede's...his model looked like she rolled around in tissue paper!!!

Fnarf said...

OK, her dress was fug, but Leanne is HOTT HOTT HOTT. The prettiest lady who's ever been on PR, says this nerd-lovin' straight guy. Even if every molecule of her just screams "Portland".

I have a feeling I won't be admiring her for long, though.

I didn't care for any of these looks, but I actually liked suede's the best of the three. It looked the most like a real garment and I liked the colors.

the first dress.. just hate that pink color and gluing on the candies didn't help much. the coffee filters were the saving grace on that outfit.

The next outfit looks like cheap clown clothes. No transformation here from materials to clothing.

All 3 were lucky there were worse atrocities on the runway.

Joanie said...

Leanne, maybe silent assassins should just remain...I dunno...silent? The worked collars on all her clothes are fine if you only buy one piece from her. More than one and you'd look ridiculous.

Emily's dress comind down the runway made the model look like she had a pouchy pooch hanging over that belt. Not good on a stick and definitely not good on a woman with curves. Nope.

And Suede, whatever. He's just going to be one of "those" who tries too hard to be a distinctive personality rather than a distinctive designer.

Nichole D. said...

Ah, Suede. He's the one I've decided to love this season, simply because I love the underdogs, and he's crazy. Like the spit-marking girl. Absolutely nuts.

Anonymous said...

I kind of liked Suede. I was expecting not to, what with the blue mohawk projecting the I'M IN YOUR FACE look. His portfolio is not that bad, he doesn't seem to be in it for the money, and he has a glimmer of promise. Let's see what he can do next. He can't be the weirdo, though.....our Blayne de Soleil is carrying that torch. So we're going to have to see some serious taste and talent or he's auf.

Leeanimal? Foreals? Not impressed.

The Fashion Assassin intrigued me a little. I think she has some creativity--I'm watching her.

I think Jennifer, Leanne, and Emily will start switching personalities or styles just to fuck with everyone. Of course, we'd need to have some sense of who they are.

Oh, no! You don't like Jon & Kate Plus 8?!

Well, I have to come out now (I'm not sure why) and announce this to the world: Hello. My name is Bill, and I'm an 8-aholic.

The show bugged the hell out of me the first time I saw it. I was sure Jon was going to walk out after all Kate's nagging. And then something happened. My DNA shifted. It's stupid. I don't know why I love it so. But now I can tell all the kids apart on sight. I like Jon's man-childness. I understand Kate's obsessive nitpicking. And I experience strong urges to drive to Pennsylvania and babysit for them. Someone please help me.

I hope you'll all still accept me and let me keep posting about the Runway here.

Emily's dress looked very angela-esque. And I liked angela's works (yes, you heard right). the minidress is ugly, but the collar is very whimsical.

Eventhough the whole get-up may not work completely, I think she understood that this was the challenge (as with other first challenges) where a little crazy is permisible as long as you show a POV.

She went for it, crazy collar and all, and good for her. I'm sure in the upcoming challenges she will show something with good taste, i bet you...

Suede is a teacher at some design school and one of his (ex?)students said (at the Livejournal community for PR) that he had to have been picked to be the crier.

the first two were season 4 ripoffs - christian & chris's (ok, christian's) couture ruffle collar on emily's (who?) dress, and the pink meringue puff reminded me of one of the hershey's challenge dresses (rami? did he do the one that was like a silver hershey-kiss shaped pouf?)

oh suede. whackadoodle indeed.

alas, i have found myself using the word whackadoodle more than once since last week. at first, it was a horrified repetition of suede's use, but now - well, some things are really just whackadoodle.

also: leanne is hot? that's a joke, right? right? she's got plain jane all over her.....and hipster chick cliche about sums up most of the designers this season (especially the bobbsey twins..triplets...however many of those indistinguishable brunette girls there are).

Since Blayne turned out be so ... Blayne-ish, I've decided to adopt Leanne as the hometown hero to cheer for. Portland is close enough to Seattle, right?

I was really disappointed with the level of creativity episode. Leanne, Suede, and Keith all did the same thing: they all chose a tablecloth, and then put a load of garbage on to hide it. blech. When Wendy Pepper is more creative than you, something is seriously wrong.

I really thought Suede's deserved to be bottom three. As you say, an ugly picnic tablecloth turned into an ugly dress. Worse, the embellishments added to "hide" the fact that it was a tablecloth! Zero originality. And it looks poorly made, as though the challenge were to fashion a dress out of picnic leftovers using glue and stapler to stitch it together.
