The final three were decided. So, if you haven't seen it yet, please do not read any further.

The challenge: Design a wedding dress and bridesmaid dress that gives a feel of the designers' collection that they designed to show at Bryant Park.

The Winner:
SS: I am excited to see that, for the first time in Runway's history, all three designers that will be showing at Bryant Park, are women. I'll admit I did like Jerell's wedding dress, and bridesmaid dress much better than Korto's (what WAS that bridesmaid's mess, I mean dress?). Korto proved through out the season she can hold her own, and I'm excited to see her collection at Fashion Week.

JF: Congratulations ladies! Leanne, Korto and (yes, even) Kenley, well done! I expected nothing less from Leanne and Korto, but Kenley really surprised me. She CAN do something other than '50s style. Can't wait to see their collections at Fashion Week.

The Loser:
SS: I am sad to see Jerell go. He definitely has talent. Overly bedazzled talent. He made it this far, so I'm sure we will be seeing collections from him in the future.

JF: Sorry to see you go. I love your style, overly bejeweled and all. You made it this far, keep going, your dream is just around the corner!

Next week is the big show, everyone. It's down to the wire. Korto, Kenley and Leanne -­ who do you think will be this season's winner of Project Runway?

How ironic that the winning design was worn by the designer who was sent home? Here's the rundown from last night.

The challenge: Design an outfit for another contestant. The catch - the outfit has to fit a musical genre, ie. rock 'n roll, punk or hip hop.

The winner:
SS: Korto, those pants are pretty hot. When paired with all the accessories, the outfit was within the genre but outside of the box. Way to go, chick.

JF: Korto, way to go! I'm not surprised because Korto has mad skills. To go outside of what she usually does and win it, really shows her talent.

The loser:
SS: Rock 'n roll shouldn't be boring. And the look Jerell was wearing, designed by Suede, was a bit boring. Don't get me wrong, the pants looked hot and the vest had a nice design, too. But the shirt made it look a bit too Godspell, with the sternum exposed. The sternum exposure was the only risk taken in the whole outfit. A bit too safe, and let's face it, rock 'n roll is never safe!

JF: Suede, you played it a little too safe. However, I know why Kenley gets to stay, drama. She had no clue what hip hop was. And to have one of the kings of hip hop (LL Cool J) as the guest judge, should have gotten Kenley the boot for that outfit. But like I said she's drama, and drama equals ratings. Fine. It's not like Suede was that awesome anyway, and as her outfit showed, she really missed the mark by miles. Bye-bye Suede, bye-bye.

It's really getting down to the wire. The next challenge determines the final three who will go to New York Fashion Week. Come on, you can tell us, who won't be going there?
