Project Runway Recap: You Can Totally Wear That Again

If you've ever been a bridesmaid -- you already know those words can be deadly. And though there are plenty of great designers in the bridesmaid fashion industry (Cynthia Rowley has a line for Dessy, even former Project Runway contestant Carol Hannah has jumped into the fray) it seems there are still plenty of ugly bridesmaid gowns out there.

So in case you missed it, Project Runway's most recent episode challenged the designers to take a slightly heinous frock and make it into something runway ready. And the results were pretty amazing. Spoiler alert! Michael C. ended up charming the judges and winning (again) with a black lace, velvet and silk short dress (above); while Mondo (in my humble opinion) came in a very close second with a mod-style black and pink number (below, far left). Meanwhile, it was farewell to Peach with the... rather interesting interpretation she sent down the runway (below, far right).

So what do you think of the gowns above? Better off before or after with these bridesmaid dresses? Would you wear the new frocks the designers created? Weigh in below!

Michael Drummond's hot pink and black fishnet dress nearly got him sent home, but in the end, Peach was off'ed for this green skirt and awkward top.
