00:00This season on Project Runway.
00:04I'm back!
00:07Your look walk out.
00:08I was like, the cervix is dilated and she's crowning.
00:12No tea, no shade, no pink lemonade.
00:15It's fashion's pierces competition.
00:18You have to bring it.
00:19It really is pushing the boundaries of fashion.
00:22She's badass and flirty at the same time.
00:25This is special.
00:26You have done something that a lot of people cannot do.
00:31And that is to shut me up.
00:33With designers that will stop at nothing to win.
00:36You're the most untalented designer.
00:41Done.
00:42Shut up.
00:42Oh shit.
00:43We're in fashion, supposed to be competitive.
00:45I'm gonna fight to be here.
00:46She is drama.
00:48It's gonna be cutthroat.
00:50Judges who aren't afraid to be brutally honest.
00:52No one would wear that outfit.
00:54The dress was a complete mess.
00:57Is that inspiring?
00:58I don't know how to handle this.
01:00I'm not gonna do.
01:01I do not come to look at a bunch of ugly clothes.
01:04This is unwearable.
01:05This is so weird.
01:06It's a new house with new rules.
01:09Alright designers, that's time.
01:11You are still sewing?
01:12I wanna go home.
01:14Are you nuts?
01:15I want this so bad.
01:17Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
01:19Ah!
01:20I wanna be on top.
01:21In fashion, one day you're in, and the next day, you're out.
01:27For 12 designers, this is a chance of a lifetime.
01:31At stake for the winner is $200,000.
01:34Six months of representation from Agent 3 PR.
01:38A spread in Elle magazine.
01:40And a life-changing mentorship with the CFDA.
01:43This is Project Runway.
01:45Oh, shit.
02:01Yo, uh...
02:03Yo, we on Project Runway for real.
02:05Welcome to Project Runway, aka The Joseph McCray Show.
02:09Ooh.
02:10Listen, it's Joseph McCray is one word.
02:13Do not break it up.
02:14First and last together, and that's it.
02:17Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
02:19Uh-oh.
02:20Hola.
02:20You got a designer and a model.
02:24I'm a tall bitch.
02:25Hey, Diva.
02:33How are you? I'm Joseph McCray.
02:34I'm Ethan, but you may recognize me as Utica from RuPaul's Dry Grease.
02:39You think I can eat that?
02:40Yeah, you can cue on it. Girl, this is crystals.
02:43Oh, we got another one.
02:45Hey, Diva.
02:46How are you?
02:47Hello, Ethan. Nice to meet you. Vijay.
02:49I'm Joseph McCray.
02:50Hi, Joseph.
02:51No, no, no. You got to say that first to myself.
02:53Hi.
02:54Hold on, Vijay. It's Joseph McCray.
02:56Okay, Joseph, right?
02:57Joseph McCray.
02:58Joseph Mac...
02:59McCray.
03:00Don't even split it.
03:01Okay, Joseph McCray.
03:02Boom. Easy, right?
03:05Hola.
03:06Hola.
03:07Hi.
03:08I'm Joseph McCray.
03:09Hey.
03:10Madeline, nice to meet you.
03:11Madeline, pleasure.
03:12Hey.
03:14Hola.
03:15Hi.
03:16Bitches, I am back.
03:18Jesus, nice to meet you.
03:19I'm Jesus Estrada from Project Runway Season 7.
03:23I'm so excited.
03:24Jesus, we are concerned about your taste level.
03:28I was a baby.
03:29I was 21 years old.
03:30I'm 36 now.
03:32Hola.
03:33Back then, I didn't know who I was as a designer.
03:35Now, coming back, I know my DNA.
03:38I have a very successful business.
03:39So, Heidi has nothing to worry about this time around, about my taste level.
03:44I'm gonna win, just so you know.
03:46So, I hope you bitches are ready.
03:48Yes.
03:49What is going on?
03:51Girl.
03:52I'm VJ.
03:53I'm Joan.
03:54Nice to meet you.
03:55Nice to meet you, Joan.
03:56Hey, guys.
03:57Hey, what's up?
03:58Hi.
03:59My name is Yuchen.
04:00Hi.
04:01Hi.
04:04My name is Casey Black.
04:05I was on Season 19 of Project Runway, and I left on Episode 1.
04:13I'm like cry laughing.
04:14Casey, you are out.
04:16Being eliminated in the first challenge, I didn't get to show who I was as a person, as
04:22a designer, as an artist.
04:24So, I'm just hoping to prove who I am.
04:26Hi.
04:27Hi.
04:28Hi.
04:29Hi.
04:30Hi.
04:31Hi.
04:32Honey, you look like you're ready.
04:34I mean, born ready, baby.
04:35You guys are.
04:36Oh, shit, bitch.
04:37Are you guys ready to double the trouble?
04:42Is that my twin brother?
04:44Oh, my .
04:47There's another one.
04:52The Estrada did not come to plan.
04:54Let them meet the winner.
04:55Wait, this one's my side, no?
04:59They want me here, though.
05:01You want to tell them that you want this side?
05:03Yeah, that's my side.
05:04Is that going to be a fight?
05:06Hi.
05:07I'm Antonio Estrada.
05:08I'm the winner of Project Runway Season 21, and this is the first runner-up.
05:11No, I'm kidding.
05:13What's he on Season 7?
05:14No.
05:15Okay.
05:16This is his first time.
05:17I waited 15 years.
05:18We're here.
05:19Yes.
05:20There you go.
05:21I always knew I wanted to do fashion.
05:23It was my dream to be on Project Runway, not my brother.
05:26I said my brother went in before me, so.
05:28But I never felt like I was living in his shadow.
05:32I'm talented.
05:33I'm excited to showcase my own creation.
05:36It's going to be my own vision, my own style outside of my brother.
05:39And I'm here to win.
05:406, 7, 8, 9, 10.
05:41We're done.
05:42We're done.
05:43We're done.
05:44Yeah, 12.
05:45We're done.
05:46We're done.
05:47We're done.
05:48We're done.
05:49Yeah.
05:50Welcome home, mama.
05:51Yes.
05:52Yes.
05:53Yes.
05:54Designers, welcome to Project Runway.
05:55I can't believe I'm saying this again.
05:56This is so exciting.
05:57I'm your host, Heidi Klum.
05:58What do you want?
05:59Yes.
06:00Yes.
06:01This is truly a magical place where dreams do come true.
06:03And no one knows this more than the world-renowned designer and icon next to me, Christian Siriano.
06:21Yes.
06:22I'm good.
06:24So you want to know your first challenge?
06:26Absolutely.
06:27Yes.
06:28Not me.
06:29Okay.
06:30If you ask any designer where they first fell in love with fashion, I think one answer comes
06:34up more than any other.
06:35The Disney princess.
06:37Ooh!
06:40The princesses have inspired so many designers for decades.
06:43And as you know, behind every powerful princess, there's something lurking.
06:48Ooh.
06:51The Disney villain.
06:52Yes.
06:53Not only were they scary, but they were fabulously evil.
06:59Okay, designers, we're in a new home with new rules.
07:03So for your first challenge, you will be forming fashion houses.
07:08Woo!
07:09Heidi, what are you doing to us?
07:11One house will be house of princess, while the other will be the house of villains.
07:16I know.
07:17Please stand on the side that your work is on.
07:18Right here.
07:19Right here.
07:20Oh my God.
07:21Your house is the house of princess.
07:22Okay.
07:23Okay.
07:24I don't want to sew in all black.
07:25Yeah, me neither.
07:26That makes you house of villains.
07:27Each house must create a cohesive collection.
07:28That's C word.
07:29For the very first runway show at the Enchanted United Palace.
07:30Ooh.
07:31Ooh.
07:32We only have one day to create this look.
07:35Whew.
07:36You guys have 45 minutes to brainstorm, to sketch, and then you run off to Mood to get your fabric.
07:42Oh God.
07:43Believe it.
07:44I'm so happy to be here, and I can't believe I'm saying this again.
08:00I'll see you on the runway!
08:01Love you, Heidi.
08:03What's happening?
08:08What's happening?
08:10I am having a moment of PTSD because my first challenge in season 19 was a group challenge.
08:19And now I'm in season 21, and it's also a group challenge.
08:23I'm getting hives.
08:25I'm sweating.
08:26I'm, like, having panic attacks.
08:29I cannot be eliminated first.
08:32Not again.
08:38Okay, here we go, guys.
08:39Okay.
08:41All right.
08:41Our first challenge is a group challenge, so we have to sketch and figure out what we're going to have going on so we can bring these princess looks to life.
08:49It is game on.
08:51Let's go.
08:51What's that one thing that can thread all the collection?
08:55I think it's going to come down to the fabric selection.
08:57Fabric.
08:59I definitely got inspired by Ursula, and since I have a delicious, curvaceous girl as a model,
09:06I want to do a powerful suit, fit it all the way below the knee, and then it's going to go out.
09:11I want to make sure her body looks, like, snatched.
09:14I think a villain has a good cape.
09:17And if I can switch up the idea of having a cape, would we like that?
09:21Yes.
09:22I grew up on a farm.
09:23When I created Utica, it was a conduit for my queer artistic energy because back on the farm, I am the gay community.
09:32I'm the mayor of Queerville.
09:34I mostly do these one-of-a-kind bespoke pieces for my community, but not everybody wants to ready-to-wear drag outfit.
09:43So I'm worried about that.
09:45It could get too costumey if I don't do it right.
09:48It has to be cohesive.
09:53So we should think of a theme, like a color palette.
09:56I work with my brother 24-7, so if I can win this for myself, it's proving myself.
10:02I'm excited to intimidate the other designers, and I'm excited to intimidate my brother.
10:07The color palette's great.
10:08The fabric that I brought from home, it's literally that fabric, the butterfly, but it's in pink, and it has orange-y tones.
10:17The butterflies are blue.
10:20So let's have the inspiration of our collection be butterfly.
10:26Butterfly, yes.
10:27Cool.
10:27Yes.
10:28Um, okay.
10:30Butterfly fabric is not going on my design.
10:33I'm really sorry.
10:34I don't know if it's Giving Princess.
10:36It's just not my style.
10:38So show me how you do it.
10:40My name is Madeline.
10:41My design point of view is inspired by historical fashion.
10:46I like collars.
10:47I like poofy sleeves.
10:49I like pants.
10:51I gotta see this fabric, because if it doesn't speak to me, I'm not using, you know?
10:56That's fine.
10:56It's crazy.
10:57We're agreeing to this fabric that we've never seen.
11:01All right, guys.
11:01Here we go.
11:03What do you think?
11:04I am not feeling it.
11:08My name is Joan Madison.
11:10I'm years old.
11:13I'm a seasoned designer.
11:14I've worked in the garment industry.
11:16I've owned and operated my own bridal shop for the last 20 years.
11:20So this is my time, and I'm not here to use basic butterfly fabric.
11:25You know, I'm here to show them who's the queen.
11:28I feel like I want brighter.
11:30I want brighter, too.
11:31Yeah.
11:32Yeah.
11:32Antonio's butterfly fabric, it was pretty cool to me.
11:36But I already knew that I was going to do what I wanted to do.
11:38Anyways, so...
11:39Are you going to pull something from here?
11:43I don't even know.
11:45For me, the butterflies reprincess.
11:47But if they don't yet, they're crazy.
11:50All right, designers.
11:56$600 each.
11:5845 minutes to shop.
11:59Okay, go.
12:02Joseph McRae.
12:04Joseph McRae, you've got to say the first with the last.
12:06Joseph McRae, you've got to say the first with the last.
12:11No, this is too purple.
12:14Everybody's using this print.
12:16No, I'm the only one.
12:17But they all make sense.
12:18We've got sequin.
12:19We have velvet.
12:20We've got your print.
12:21We have tulle.
12:22Our team had a plan coming into this.
12:25But now we're running around the store.
12:27Chicken with his head cut off.
12:28I'm like...
12:29And now we've got tweed.
12:31I don't know what's happening.
12:32Christian, this is 2025, baby.
12:34Okay, I'm...
12:35Listen, I work in 2025.
12:37I'm doing okay.
12:39Come, come, come, come.
12:40Villain team, can I please have you and beat it, please?
12:43We have to have a meeting right now.
12:44I played this game before, and I think at this point, I know what it takes.
12:49And if someone has to take control, I think that person's going to be me.
12:52Great idea.
12:53Let's meet and make sure it makes sense together.
12:57I need to get lining, so I'll be back, okay?
13:00Lining?
13:00Lining.
13:01Okay.
13:01Yeah.
13:02Okay.
13:03Vijay is in her own bubble.
13:05She needs to be a team player.
13:07I don't know.
13:08My team is going everywhere, so I haven't been able to get them here.
13:11No meeting?
13:12Hope it looks good.
13:17Fiddling, fiddling.
13:18Here we go.
13:18Did I cut enough?
13:23Can we sing Disney songs?
13:34It's a good thing that's not her day job.
13:38That fabric is gorgeous.
13:40Take it, take off the file.
13:42Yeah, right?
13:42Don't you think?
13:43Yeah.
13:44That's gorgeous.
13:45I know, I think so, too.
13:46In season 19, I had a lot of ideas.
13:49It was really hard for me to edit down, and I lost track of time.
13:53I don't want that to happen again.
13:55So, this challenge, I just think Sleeping Beauty and tulle ball gown.
14:00I'm going to play with layers of tulle that I'm pan-fleeting.
14:04Casey, I remember her from season 19.
14:08Her aesthetic is very loud, and yeah, it's pretty.
14:18Welcome to Project Runway season 21.
14:21My name is Vijay Floresca.
14:25Aside from being a fashion designer, I used to be a beauty queen.
14:31Here's my pageant wave.
14:35I was second runner-up in Project Runway Philippines season 1, and first runner-up in Dress My Tour.
14:42Being in those competitions will help me to finally win this competition.
14:47No more runner-ups, but to win the competition.
14:51How's it going, Diva?
14:53This one.
14:54This one.
14:55I can't really get a read on Vijay.
15:00This is a team challenge, and you have to be a little receptive to other people's critique and interest in what you're doing.
15:07She really is in her own zone, and to us, it seems like she's being an asshole.
15:12Fire!
15:14S-O-K-Y!
15:16I know that I'm priceless, yeah, I can't even hide it.
15:21I know what you want, I know you like it.
15:24Let's do it!
15:26Woo!
15:27Let's get this party.
15:28Party!
15:29Get back to work.
15:32Color palettes coming together.
15:33And that transition couldn't be any more perfect.
15:36I'm feeling like my team is a winning team, and I guess you can call me the team leader,
15:41just because they actually fell in love with the fabric that I wanted to use for this challenge.
15:45But, you know, I'm a Turner Strada.
15:47I can make anyone fall in love with anything.
15:49I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:52House of Princess.
15:53It's a lot of pink, it's a lot of ruffles, and there's some butterflies in there.
15:58It's not my flavor.
15:59I'm glad I'm not on Team Princess.
16:02Yeah, I hate it as well.
16:08Hey, Vijay, how you doing?
16:11Huh?
16:11I think there's some people in my team that are not being team players.
16:16Vijay's energy is very standoffish.
16:19It's a bit cheat.
16:20Why you don't have a machine?
16:22Where's your machine?
16:23Girl, these are all of our machines.
16:24No, I mean, like, that was the one that I'm using.
16:26Okay, well, I can use it too.
16:27Which one is the one that you were using?
16:29I'm using all of them, because we're all using all of them.
16:31So you don't have, like, one of them?
16:33No, like, everybody's using all of them.
16:35Come on, girl.
16:36You just decide to be lazy and not thread your own machine.
16:42This girl, the fight for the machine begins.
16:46Girl, relax.
16:47Like, you don't own the machines.
16:49You're using black thread, honey?
16:51I am as well, so...
16:53I don't like that shit.
16:56This is competition.
16:57We're not here to meet friends.
16:59We're here to win this.
17:00And I think maybe he just wants to distract me.
17:03I'm not going to give him that power.
17:05I'm just going to ignore it.
17:07See, this is my brother-in-law.
17:08Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
17:10You don't want to be in our bathtub, you know, bitch.
17:17Hello.
17:19First day!
17:20How are you?
17:21Hey!
17:22There's a lot going on in here.
17:23Yes, it is.
17:28Casey.
17:28Yes.
17:29Hi.
17:29Hi.
17:30We meet again.
17:30I know.
17:31I already need a martini.
17:33All right.
17:34What's happening?
17:35She'll be like a cake dress and the flowers.
17:38She's a cake.
17:38I'm just thinking, you know, there's ways to make this feel a bit more modern and cool.
17:45Okay.
17:45Like maybe this tool is in here and it's more of a tool overlay somewhere.
17:50The proportions and the fit will be important here.
17:54Yeah.
17:54The waist.
17:55Okay.
17:55For sure.
17:56There's just so many things you could do to make this feel really cool and interesting.
18:00Oh, no.
18:01I have done a waist like this before and I love asymmetrical.
18:05I do a lot of asymmetrical.
18:06So I don't want to give that up.
18:08I think it's going to be gorgeous.
18:10Okay.
18:11Good luck.
18:15Wow.
18:16This is a little number.
18:18The Joseph McCray puffer.
18:19Beautiful shape.
18:20I like to play with shape a lot.
18:22I have a degree in electrical engineering.
18:23I think the engineering has very heavily influenced my design aesthetic.
18:27And you look at the structure and you look at the like silhouettes.
18:30So I'm going to create a mean puffer jacket along with a wrap satin skirt in this midnight
18:36periwinkle repulsory fabric.
18:38People may not directly relate it to a princess, but listen, every princess needs a jacket.
18:43I'm feeling low-key Tinkerbell for real, for real.
18:45Making these cohesive is still part of the challenge.
18:48Don't just make a fabulous look for you.
18:51I know you don't want to listen.
18:52This is a skin situation, but...
18:54Wait, that's all out?
18:56No, it's not.
18:57Wait.
18:58Wait.
18:59This is Disney.
19:01I know, I know.
19:02Where are my pearls?
19:08Antonio, what is happening over here?
19:10So what I'm going to do is I'm going to do this bubble dress, laced up in the back.
19:14And then I want to do a coat over it with these two different colored tools all over the coat.
19:20So it will be like a reveal.
19:22You're making kind of two dresses that you might not finish.
19:27Why can't this piece just be the moment?
19:29But this one's done already.
19:30I'm just waiting for my model.
19:31It's done because literally, like, my intern could sew that in 30 minutes.
19:35Like, that's not hard.
19:38What?
19:39What the f***?
19:41Don't lose it completely.
19:42But, like, what else could this be?
19:44Could it have sculpture?
19:45Could it have some other element that anyone else has?
19:48Something's got to be cohesive.
19:49Like, don't you think the butterfly thing is because of you, right?
19:54Yeah.
19:54Okay, so then you've got to be amazing.
19:58I won't let you down.
20:00I feel like he kind of just, like, slapped me in the face.
20:03He was like, my intern can make that in 30 minutes.
20:05I'm like, okay.
20:07I'm a Gemini.
20:08I don't take critiques.
20:08I take critiques very, like, don't tell me what to do.
20:12But I'm going to step it up.
20:14Step me f*** up.
20:15No.
20:20Yuchun, what is your work normally like?
20:22My work is more, like, very futuristic.
20:24Okay.
20:25Very edgy and very avant-garde.
20:27So I think you should do that.
20:28Because this doesn't feel very futuristic.
20:31Okay.
20:31It doesn't feel that avant-garde.
20:33To be honest, I haven't made garments like this before.
20:36For my brand, I always like, you know, making ready-to-wear.
20:38It's always very futuristic, very powerful.
20:41I'm here to challenge myself.
20:43My inspiration for this look is from Taka.
20:46So I'm making this, like, tool and lace dress with flowers and veins growing all over and with a veil.
20:54Please don't be ugly.
20:55Okay.
20:56Thank you, Christian.
20:57Jesus.
20:58Yes.
20:58What's happening?
20:59I'm basically doing a powerful coat dress.
21:02All right.
21:02I also have another dress underneath.
21:05Right.
21:05So I think the challenge for you is how to make this feel more fashion, like something forward-thinking.
21:12I know in my head how the final product's going to look, and I think it's elegant.
21:18Now it's about how to make this feel, like, really modern, you know?
21:23Yeah, yeah.
21:24Okay.
21:25I would love a tour of the brain.
21:27Well, we know that a villain loves a cape.
21:31I'm doing my version of a cape, where the cape is going to connect to the top of the head.
21:37Love it.
21:37And then clean, simple, classic underneath.
21:42Mm-hmm.
21:42So this is a pant and a top.
21:44Yep.
21:44Pant and a top.
21:45Then the twist.
21:46Oh, I love a twist.
21:48I will pattern in a curved glove pattern.
21:50I don't think they want it to feel too costum-y.
21:54So I do think that that is important with your look, because you have such a dramatic moment.
22:02Try not to get in my head about it.
22:03I'm used to grand drag on the stage, so I am trying to edit.
22:10How's the team going?
22:11We've got some independent creatures on our team.
22:14We do, of course.
22:15We have a bitchy one in here.
22:17You have a sassy one?
22:18Yeah.
22:18This thing over there in the corner.
22:20Ooh.
22:22Vijay?
22:23Oh, yeah.
22:24She's what we call in the business.
22:25A ****.
22:26Mm-hmm.
22:27Interesting.
22:28Wow.
22:30I don't think there's a problem with being old ****, but when it's your own team, come on.
22:35We just have a rectangle and fabric draped on the mannequin.
22:38I don't know what, like, the vibe is.
22:41You have four more hours to finish everything, and then you will be setting your mom's back.
22:45We're going to bring the models to the Ulta Beauty Salon, and I'll see you guys in a little bit for model fittings.
22:50Don't turn into a pumpkin.
22:52Bye.
22:53Bye, Christian.
22:55We are meeting right now.
22:57I think the House of Villains didn't get enough great feedback from Christian Suriano, so I must demand a team meeting right now because I cannot go home on the first challenge.
23:07Let's step back.
23:08It doesn't look cohesive.
23:11We need to add an element.
23:12I think the cohesiveness is all about the flowers that we have.
23:16It is floral, right?
23:16You're also the only one with lace, so we have to incorporate lace somewhere.
23:21I don't have more lace at all.
23:22Well, you need to cut a little piece, so it needs to be cohesive.
23:25Have you ever made a collection?
23:27Yeah.
23:27Being cohesive is making it that it looks like it's from the same collection and same design.
23:34I know, but why lace?
23:35No one has lace.
23:36That's what I'm saying.
23:37No one has this leather.
23:38No one has this velvet.
23:40I'm adding velvet on mine.
23:41I'm adding your flower as well.
23:43Mr. Yushin, this is a team challenge.
23:46I'm not meaning taking his lace to, like, sabotage him.
23:48I'm just trying to do the best that I can.
23:50But the red, I mean, it's beautiful, but it seems like we don't have red for any other looks.
23:54I think it's okay.
23:55Yeah.
23:55I think if you do, like, a red top of color.
23:58I also, I'm very competitive in there.
23:59I want to hold black.
24:00I don't really understand why I have to devote my lace.
24:03Why he's doing this to me?
24:04Well, he's the biggest problem in the team.
24:07I'm just saying if we want to make the collection cohesive, you're the only one with lace.
24:14Wow, Yushin, he's definitely being a little shady bitch.
24:18If you're not here to be a team player, there's going to be a problem throughout this whole competition.
24:25Today's the first runway, and I'm just so scared what's going to happen.
24:31Not myself, but for other designers.
24:35She's part of Team Villain, so it's just slicked back.
24:38I want something, like, you know, crying, smoky.
24:40Okay, thank you.
24:42You stand right here.
24:43This is great.
24:44Look at the proportions.
24:45Look at, you can't see her waist.
24:46You've got nothing.
24:47But I'm not going to make her look like a pinata.
24:49But that's kind of what it looks like.
24:51Oh, my God.
24:52I'm running out of time, and then I have to do a belt for this coat.
24:55I don't want to have her look like a loofah.
24:58Silence!
24:59It's all for the model!
25:05Where's the model?
25:06Oh, my God.
25:07This is more stressful than Cinderella at the ball.
25:11You are still sewing?
25:13No, this one, like...
25:14Mmm!
25:15You're doing Heidi in three, two...
25:17Woo!
25:19Woo!
25:20Hi, everybody!
25:22Woo!

25:26That's time.
25:27You are coming.
25:28Come on.
25:29Please meet our Project Runway judges.
25:31My longtime friend, editor-in-chief of Elle magazine, Nina Garcia.
25:35Woo!
25:36Serious.
25:37Baby, that woman is powerful.
25:41I hope Nina Garcia sees my look and she, like, sees me in my princess.
25:46The FDA award-winning stylist and image architect, La Roche.
25:53I'm thrilled.
25:54La Roche.
25:55Incredible celebrity stylist.
25:57He's worked with Zendaya.
25:59La Roche can tear me a new one whenever the man wants, okay?
26:02And please meet again our mentor, Christian Siriano.

26:27inspired by Disney princesses or Disney villains.

29:00to be like oh my god whoever did this knows how to sew the construction is really great
29:07when my model walks down the runway it's definitely giving modern jasmine for sure and i see emotions
29:14being provoked when she's walking and that's what i want so i'm feeling confident about my look it's a vibe
29:22i'm feeling emotional and happy of the work seeing my model in my beautiful butterfly fabric
29:28that i brought from home makes me feel so nurtured love and accomplished is that camouflage it's like a
29:35butterfly print she is just floating in my gown and it's exactly the feeling i wanted it is modern princess

31:03winning house while the eliminated designer will come from the losing house
31:09the winning house for this challenge is
31:10house of villain
31:20this team was a hard one to work with but we won we won
31:28unfortunately that means house of princess you were the losing house

31:43i am shocked what just happened this feels horrible
31:51so congratulations you guys are winning a house your clothes really spoke to the challenge but also did
31:58it in a way that felt really modern that separated you from the other team your collection at least
32:04look cohesive thank you thank you all right let's talk to the top three our favorite looks
32:13ethan
32:18we also love yuchin thank you
32:20and we had a little bit of a debate over the third spot
32:28it is jesus thank you
32:33alex angelo bj you're safe and you can leave the runway thank you so much thank you baby thank you
32:43thank you guys all right let's bring out your models
32:46you were our three favorite looks tonight all right yuchin let's talk about your looks
32:55to me this is now i love this especially now everything is about sheer and so i feel like
33:00you're right on what's happening right now and she looks beautiful i would wear this too gorgeous
33:05i really like your dress it's young it's sexy it's gothic it's evil i can definitely see jenna
33:12ortega in this dress at a premiere of wednesday adams a slight change i would have switched the
33:19styling with the boots but i think it is a really really great dress and i think it is very commercial
33:23thank you the flower in the back is curious but i love the ruching that you did on the bodice
33:30if we change this black into pink you could be in the princess yeah jesse
33:36yeah i'm versatile all right oh me too ethan we're going to talk to you next hello distinguished panel
33:47of judges okay your model is actually quite petite however she felt grandiose it was like this dark
33:57shadow had just slithered through this stage it wasn't just the clothes it was a feeling the construction
34:05was really really good the velvet was a great idea velvet always looked so rich there was a little
34:12things that i noticed on the cape there was a scene that i wish i didn't see and a little bit of the
34:18him is puckering but you did such a beautiful job bravo my love it's giving me villain but it's not
34:23giving me costume i feel like if you don't have this cape on you wear this jumpsuit underneath it's
34:28like modern it's cool i would want to wear it i love the nails because this little detail i was like yes
34:35yes and she looks stunning all right jesus jesus it's so lovely to see you again it was bold of you
34:45to choose a color when everybody else stuck to black i think that's why you're up here is because in a
34:53sea of black to have this fabrication that feels really rich and really luxe was really important
34:58for me it was very important to make her feel sexy and i think that i embodied that i love the
35:04code i think it's fabulous i hated it i was the only one i was out judge hate is such a big word
35:12it's a short word it's only four letters i'm sorry if you hate the code i hate the whole look
35:18oh don't get emotional please we liked it i love how your model looks she feels regal we need ambitious
35:32designers guys i have to disagree with everything nina said to me she doesn't look cool she doesn't look
35:40young she looks like a nigerian auntie i have clients of all different sizes ages and one thing
35:48you have to care about is the placement of the breast then you could have done something to lift the
35:54breasts a little bit more if you're going to say that you want to make a curvy woman feel beautiful
35:59and powerful and all those things do you have to do it in your design does anyone disagree with any of
36:04that yeah a lot of the times i feel like designers put a curvy girl into something so loose that we
36:12can't see the beautiful curves then i think you look beautiful okay all right now it's time to name our
36:19winner congratulations ethan you're the winner of this challenge yes shut up
36:35crown me baby because the queen is on top this week yurika won
36:50feels right la roche was rocked i'm so shocked right now shocked shocked shocked it feels like
36:58i'm not on the top even though i should be celebrating being on the top i feel a little attacked
37:04i'm i'm gagged but and i think it's very critical for me moving forward to really listen to what
37:11the judges have to say all i have to do is prove him wrong what was the feedback for yours what did
37:17they have to say yeah and does it really get some like you know very good advices you know but my
37:22advice to you is through this challenge like every time i would be like oh can we do this you're like
37:28no no no just sometimes you do have sometimes have to listen but girl i have to say what i'm saying
37:35so remember you talking about my lace you're saying everyone take a piece of the list i didn't
37:39you can i see that everybody take a piece of his lace we have the camera on there okay bro it was
37:45a team challenge and that was just a request i have my own opinion i'm a very mature designer so
37:50nobody need to tell me anything unless i want to take it okay you're getting really offended
37:56really is throwing me off like seriously you know what you're doing girl no i don't know what i'm
38:02doing i don't know no no you don't know child
38:09all right let's bring out house of princess
38:17house of princess you made our least favorite collection it was not cohesive unfortunately there
38:23were three looks that were less disney and more dismal balania madeline joan
38:33you're safe and you can leave the runway thank you for money thank you
38:45unfortunately that means casey joseph and antonio you had the three bottom looks
38:53i'm not being punk
39:02am i being punk no okay all right let's bring out your models
39:09joseph we're gonna start with you first like i did not see the inspo i knew that that was you
39:22but i just don't get princess from this thing i wish that you would have picked a lane you have volume
39:28but then you have her wrapped up in this skirt that seems to be strangling her it's a question of
39:36proportions you're playing with too many i disagree i enjoy the way you play with proportions i like
39:43the coat he popped that cut off and it was a sweetheart bodice dress it isn't i like it i think
39:48she's looks really cool i can see some of my clients wearing this to me we agreed to disagree yeah we
39:55agreed to disagree can she turn around yeah now the back isn't great this is not i'm sorry the back is a
40:05couch cushion okay antonio if you had asked chat gbt to help you make a john batista valley for a hundred
40:12dollars then that's what that look was after christian's critiques i did change my look a few
40:18times and there is another dress underneath is the dress still underneath you know yeah let's see
40:25it yeah yeah well christian told me his intern can make that dress in 30 minutes blaming everything
40:30on christian i just think this dress underneath an intern could make it in 30 minutes it's a tube dress
40:36you couldn't have shown that by yourself but you know why didn't you let it be open i don't know why
40:41you put the belt on it i didn't know you were going to cover up the butterflies completely it's
40:46better this way yeah because with that cute little mini dress under it at least you see her body
40:51it's charming thank you but this is not how we saw it she just looked like a big loofah
40:56when christian was crazy i said i'm like you don't think it's gonna be a pinata stop blaming it on
41:00christian you're here now no i'm not blaming christian i wrote he knows i'm a gemini and i
41:06don't like people tell me what to do and i was like you're an adult you're gonna listen to christian
41:11he's here for a reason he's your mentor and i did listen to him and that's why i changed my look
41:15three times and you know you pushed me to be spicy be better the inspo of the butterfly comes from which
41:21princess which princess i mean every princess antonio but you're being so defensive we're just trying to
41:29understand myself i'm sorry right but i don't think there's any reason to be defensive no i'm not
41:35being defensive at all i'm just explaining myself sorry no i think i think nina's right to call that
41:40out i think you are being just defensive and also a little bit rude it's okay to be criticized and to
41:47be and to and to be you know let down by the criticism but to kind of like throw it back
41:54so response has really been really quite nasty i'm just letting you know okay one girl to another
42:00maybe it's my latina side maybe
42:06next casey let's talk about your look i really love this jacquard and i wish that all this other stuff
42:16would disappear i don't know to me it looks like a nightgown you know it's very luck roster in terms
42:23of like shape and everything and what you then wrapped around to me looks like an afterthought
42:28can she turn around yes the ribbon is what i hated yeah 100 i want to see like more design
42:36it's not inspiring i love the deep plunge i just think it was a miss because you had everything to
42:42make something so beautiful and so fairy tale like and and you kind of missed it i hear you all right
42:50designers we have to make a decision you can leave the runway thank you
43:00this is so much fun i love this job
43:04i can tell i don't know if they're going to make it out alive at the end
43:09i guess we can all agree that joseph is not going home right there's so much going on but
43:25the color was really beautiful the combination of fabrics were very wonderful he's like i'm making
43:32what i make couches casey nina what did you think the dress was a complete it was horrible mess and
43:40boring too it literally like she took a staple gun it was just like no it was awful i'm an adult and
43:45i'm gonna take criticism about bitch when you're putting words in my mouth like antonio blah what
43:49were your thoughts that dress when he opened it up was really cute like 30 minutes to make that dress
43:55yeah but the coat make i like that it was a coat i know but what if he didn't have that coat
43:59yeah no he needed that kind of he's like whoa your attitude i'm like oh that attitude is so bad
44:07then he said it's probably just the latina in me girl i was like yeah all right
44:13that's not an excuse with my nina baby yeah you could be very talented but if you have a bad attitude
44:20and you can't work with others in this industry we have seen it bad attitude is a problem i'm so proud
44:29of myself it's just very emotional you know and intense like it's just intense i just feel like i'm
44:39in shock a bit right now like um i actually really loved my dress being in this position again never
44:47thought i'd be in the bottom three at this stage of the competition again like after being eliminated
44:52on episode one of another season like it just feels like a bad joke i don't want to go home
45:00they're still me why am i here i didn't think my design was the worst but being in the bottom three
45:10i feel like shattered do i really need to be here do i really need this is like this just go home
45:17so do we say home the bad dress or the bad attitude i want to go home
45:26if i say my attitude's gonna be worse
