The X Factor

paulapinkdrss

As you all know, I have been working with Paula Abdul for quite some time. For the past few months, I have had an incredible time making a whole series of custom garments for her. Tuesday, when she arrived in town for the New York/New Jersey leg of the X Factor auditions, I met her at her hotel for the final fittings. My designs were a hit and she wore one on each of the two filmed days. I can not tell you how happy I am. I have attached a whole bunch of pictures below so you can see my design. I would love to know what you think....

She always chooses the wrong thing for her body. This, on the other hand, is gorgeous! She has never looked better! She should never leave the house in anything but Leanne.

I never have expected her to look good in that color but that's why you're the designer and I'm just a fan. It was the perfect color for her and she looks knockout gorgeous.

I'm still waiting for Michelle Obama to step out in her Leanne original but this is really a better showcase for you. Congratulations!

omg, you are one of my project runway favs.....love it!!!

That dress is so pretty! Though the shoes are kind of awful... a dainty silver strappy sandal or an elegant platform pump with a sky-high heel like the YSLs, maybe in nude leather, would have worked much better!

That color is absolutely fantastic! I just found your blog and I love it! I am a fellow Oregonian (I live in Hood River) and blogger (http://acollectionofpassions.com/) and PR lover (of course). So happy to have found your blog so I can see what you are designing!
