Suede's winning Project Runway design

On last night’s episode of Project Runway (I’m sorry if you missed it because I told you it was on at 10pm, rather than 9pm—here’s the recap), the contestants had to create cocktail dresses out of eco-friendly fabrics selected by their models. For some reason, the silk/hemp blend that was popular with many of the models seems to come in just two colors, an ugly bronze and a slightly cheap-looking pale good. Apparently, it was very difficult to manipulate—I have never seen hemlines so crooked. Guest judge Natalie Portman was as ladylike as ever, always saying something good about the design before giving her criticisms, and in the end, Suede’s innovative criss-crossing of fabrics won her over. Heidi Klum even said she’s wear the dress if she were 10 years younger. Heidi, you don’t need to shave off 10 years to wear this dress.

To see our favorite designs, keep reading…

P.S. Who else is in love with Kenley?

I love Jennifer and Terri’s dresses.  So simple, classy and fun.  I really thought Terri’s dress would win.  I just don’t get the ballerina dress that Suede did.

I really loved Emily’s dress with the braided details- preppy but fresh.
