Christian Siriano's Project Runway Finale Collection

The season finale of Project Runway is always a highly anticipated event, and this year was no exception. Christian Siriano, one of the most talented designers to emerge from the show, showcased his final collection on the catwalk. The bustier with a graphic overskirt screamed 80's back-up dancer for Toni Basil - not exactly the look that would make you go 'wow'! And what about the too-short bridesmaid dress? It seemed like it came out of nowhere. On the other hand, Christian also showed some stunning Edwardian sleeve dresses in fabulous prints or silk jacquards.

One particular design that caught my eye was a black high-neck fitted dress with an incredibly long center front neck to waist measurement - I've never seen anything like it! However, what struck me most about Christian's collection was the sense of 'all over the place' - it was as if he was trying to cram too many ideas into one show.

In contrast, Kenley's designs were nice but not particularly memorable. Leanne, on the other hand, seemed to have a clear vision and focus on her fittings, ensuring that every detail was perfect. The three finalists - Christian, Kenley, and Korto - worked tirelessly in their new make-shift workroom, making good use of their limited time.

The final show at Bryant Park was a mixed bag, with some designs shining while others fell flat. But Christian's collection stood out, showcasing his unique blend of style, creativity, and attention to detail. As an instructor myself, I couldn't help but notice every little thing that went wrong - from loose threads to hastily made-up darts.

In the end, it was clear that Christian Siriano had put his heart and soul into this collection, and it showed on the catwalk. His designs were a testament to his growth as a designer and his ability to take risks and push boundaries. As I sat front row, almost directly across from Nina, Heidi, Michael, and Season 4 winner Christian Siriano himself, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and pride - it was an experience I would never forget!
