Even Leanne Marshall Gets the Blues...

From what I recall, Bluefly doesn't ship to Hong Kong (ETA: just heard from Bluefly, they DO ship to Hong Kong now!), but fans of Project Runway will want to call up a friend to get their hands on a piece of Leanne Marshall's collection for the online discount retailer. It's drastically different from Christian Siriano's Bluefly collection, but that's no surprise given their aesthetics are worlds apart.

Leanne's collection is tied together by her signature accordion/waterfall fabric layering, in less dramatic fabrics than we're used to on the show, and more commercial colours -- Klein blue,  bright pink and baby coral. (Doesn't strike me as very Leanne, but what do I know?) There is one ballgown that's quite reminiscent of a design from her PR finale show as well, which fans will love. I for one still think, with the exception of the gown, that things didn't rreally translate well for her foray into mass fashion, which is surprising. The white shrug and blue skirt are alright, but the whole mass of pink is giving me a headache. And the T-shirts are a bit of a travesty. But oh, to own that gown... Check out more pictures after the cut!

  2. No I didn't! But I do now... and it's soooo much better than the Bluefly stuff. Although I understand, etsy stuff and bluefly stuff are totally different markets... but sigh, almost everything is sold out =(
