00:00Previously on Project Runway Canada this week you will design a high fashion look
00:05inspired by one of these shoe styles. I love shoes. I wanted to do vents on the
00:11pans but I don't have the time for it. This is a lot. Consider just cutting
00:17these off. I will not cut them off. The ruffles are broken.
00:21Maya, Foster, you both paid homage to your footwear. The winner of this
00:26challenge is Foster. Oh my god. What? Rome. Cat. I'm so sorry but you're both out.
00:36At stake for the winner from TD, a career launching investment of $100,000 and a
00:43feature in Elle Canada magazine with global supermodel Coco Rocha, fashion
00:49designer Spencer Badu, creative director Aurora James, and legendary fashion
00:55journalist Jeanne Becker. This is Project Runway Canada.
01:10Oh my gosh.
01:12Ooh. What's going on?
01:14There's five gold envelopes, five of us and giant tigers here.
01:18Hello, designers. Hello.
01:22As you can see, I have a little surprise for you waiting on the runway
01:26this morning. Actually, this one is giant.
01:30We all love to look fabulous but let's be honest, runway style can often come
01:36with runaway prices.
01:38That's why giant tiger is the cat's meow because low price is what they do.
01:44Listen, I know the giant tiger. I know the GT boutique.
01:47The five looks you see here are all from giant tiger. Each of you will design a high fashion
01:53fit that roars couture. Inspired by one of these five garments, you will not only be judged on your
02:00designs, you will also be judged by how little you spend to create them.
02:05For me, creating a couture look on a budget is what I do. But I was safe last week, so I need to step it up.
02:13Arr! We have a quilted puffer vest, a men's plaid shirt, a long cardigan, a rhinestone bow sweater,
02:23and a faux fur sherpa jacket.
02:25The puffer vest has so much potential. You can create some really cool silhouettes.
02:31That wintry cardigan is going to be the hardest. There's so many motifs. There's like three colors
02:36on it. To be clear, you're not using the actual pieces in your looks. We want you to use your
02:43imaginations. Don't just dream big, dream giant. I don't usually do couture, but I'm pretty used to
02:49working on a tighter budget because the money is usually coming out of my pocket. But at the same
02:54time, it is extra pressure knowing you're the only one without a win. Next to me are five golden envelopes.
02:59Foster, as the winner of last week's challenge, you get to pick first. Step on up.
03:05Um, I'm going to pick this one.
03:08Rhinestone bow sweater. The whole look on the mannequin is so similar to my aesthetic.
03:13Very simple and minimalist, but very impactful. I can do a lot with this.
03:18We've randomly selected the order, and Charles, you get to pick next.
03:22Okay, the flannel plaid shirt. I like this one.
03:28Curtis, you're next. Puffer vest.
03:31Leland, it's your turn.
03:33The faux fur sherpa jacket.
03:35Oh my god. This is so me. Let's do it.
03:40That means, Maya, you get the long cardigan.
03:43It's definitely not my first choice, but let's make it happen.
03:49This is a two-day challenge. You'll have 30 minutes to sketch before you meet Aurora at the fabric store,
03:55where you'll have up to $350 to spend. So make sure you keep track of every dollar spent.
04:02$350 is not a lot of money to make a couture look, but it's not hard for me at all.
04:08I know how to make more inexpensive materials feel luxurious.
04:11We want to see big style, small spend.
04:15Affordability and couture, they don't match.
04:18The time it takes to build couture warrants the price for it.
04:22I'm a really fast sewer, but good luck.
04:27Well, get sketching. All the best. Goodbye.
04:33Let's get sketching, guys.
04:34Let's do it.
04:35Do it.
04:41Definitely doing black and white. I think it's calling for it.
04:44I think I'm actually going to go like a sherpa picot.
04:47Maybe make some matching boots out of a sherpa, so it's just like this full sherpa moment.
04:51Sherpa is like really expensive, too.
04:54I know. I think I'm going to have to get creative with it.
04:56They both contradict each other budget and couture.
04:59Not necessarily.
05:00A unique piece that's handmade and custom made, that has no budget.
05:04Yeah. When workmanship shows, it doesn't matter what material it's made out of.
05:08Couture to me means custom and attention to detail.
05:12I really want to do like a full couture puffed look.
05:17There are so many unique details on here that feel like they're pretty in line with my aesthetic.
05:22I want to do a super exaggerated quilted mermaid skirt and then a massive hood,
05:26so that it feels very historical in me and still connects back to my giant tiger inspiration piece.
05:32I need to top stitch my way to the top.
05:34All right, everyone. Time's up. Let's go shopping.
05:38All right. Let's do it.
05:40On a budget.
05:41On a budget.
05:49Are you ready to step into the tiger's den?
05:51Oh, yeah.
05:53Time to get out of your comfort zones.
05:55The judges are wanting to see this week super high fashion looks, but also cost effective.
06:01You're going to have $350 and 30 minutes to make this happen.
06:05Okay, go.
06:06Oh, jeez.
06:09Do you have tulle, black tulle?
06:11Almost like this one, but not expensive.
06:14White taffeta, the cheapest you've got.
06:16Where can I find velvet? Velvet is on this side.
06:18Okay.
06:18Okay, what are you looking for?
06:19Exactly.
06:20You got the flannel look?
06:21I got the flannel look.
06:22Okay.
06:23It's going to be a different direction.
06:24I'm going sexier than I usually would.
06:26I want it to feel like a fully black and white flannel tank top dress and a skirt that mimics the lines
06:32of a collar.
06:33Why are you so obsessed with black and white?
06:35Your look last week with color was so beautiful.
06:38The judges loved it.
06:39I know.
06:39Well, I was safe last week too.
06:41They want to see you get out of your comfort zone.
06:44And black and white and stripes is your comfort zone.
06:48And your item was a flannel shirt.
06:50Mm-hmm.
06:51Is there going to be any flannel?
06:52There's going to be no flannel in this.
06:55If I can't find the flannel I want, I'm going to make the flannel I want.
07:00I'm looking for something that looks like Bella.
07:02A shearling kind of moment.
07:04This one is 19 a yard?
07:06Okay.
07:08How much a yard was that?
07:0939.
07:10One yard of your fabric is more expensive than my vest.
07:13My vest was $35.
07:18All right, Foster, I see you with the crystals.
07:20Is this how we're shaking it up this week?
07:22I'm just doing a little sparkle.
07:24Super pumped I won last week.
07:26It's a big deal.
07:27It's just so rewarding to know that I was right pursuing this career.
07:32I need your opinion.
07:33I'm making a long sleeve black velvet dress with rhinestone details.
07:37But you know sparkly is going to be expensive.
07:40I'm a little concerned that $205 for this is a lot.
07:45No, it's not.
07:46Be more concerned about not going home than like only spending $200.
07:50That's kind of the strategy though.
07:51Make sure you spend what you need.
07:54Let's do two meters of this.
07:57This one's so sexy.
07:58I love it.
07:59How are we doing with the budget?
08:01All of them are under $40 and some are even under $10.
08:03So I'm just trying to make decisions about where the colors go.
08:07In order for this to be identifiable as the cardigan, you're going to have to play to winter.
08:11I was thinking it could be a fun lining.
08:13So then you're having it glittering out.
08:15Is this you?
08:15I'm like trying to force myself into glitter to peek out.
08:17It feels winter.
08:18It does feel winter.
08:20I have never worked with glitter.
08:22So I hope the judges take notice of the fact that I'm doing something different.
08:27I'm really thinking.
08:31What's a goodie?
08:33So I got $331.
08:34Hustle, hustle, let's go.
08:35$215.
08:37$261.
08:38Okay, perfect.
08:40Time is up.
08:41All right, designers.
08:43I'll see you back at the workroom.
08:50Hey.
08:50Hey.
08:51Hey.
08:52Hello.
08:52Hello.
08:53This is where I am.
08:53Hello, puffer vest.
08:55This is where I am.
08:55There's literally five of us in this room right now.
09:05Crazy, eh?
09:06Final five.
09:07Oh my god, I can't believe we're here.
09:10After the last elimination, it was really, really jarring and so upsetting to hear that
09:16both Grom and Kat were going home and I was the only one safe.
09:19Last week, the judges had words to say to me.
09:21I was getting maybe comic book character.
09:23Taste-wise to us, it was a little cheap.
09:26I can recognize that you're right and I listened to them.
09:29So this week, I'm really challenging myself.
09:32I don't want it to look too much.
09:34I want it to just be tasteful and still have those elements of fun.
09:39But, couture.
09:42Yes, bitch.
09:43Yeah, I just patterned the quickest mermaid of my life.
09:47And I'm dreading the quilting that's in front of me.
09:50I have found the perfect off-white taffeta for this puffer-inspired look,
09:54and I grabbed eight yards of it.
09:56Even though the look is all white, I am convinced the judges will notice
10:01all of the intricate detail building this shape alone.
10:04Couture is all about skill, precision, and your artistic vision.
10:07So if you're relying on multiple fabrics to communicate that,
10:14couldn't be me.
10:18I think there's nothing I've done in this competition that I've done before.
10:21It feels great being back in the top.
10:23It feels right, finally.
10:25The judges like my design.
10:26I really need to keep this momentum going.
10:28How are you translating the knit?
10:30I decided to go away from the knit and think about, like, what does the knit represent?
10:35It's definitely giving winter.
10:36And it brings to mind 1920s silhouettes.
10:40I love being inspired by history.
10:42So I'm going to be pulling from, ready for it, Anastasia.
10:46I'm making a princess-inspired coat with gloves, and hiding underneath will be a dress.
10:54I might do the gloves out of the red polka dots.
10:57I was looking at these and thinking that the polka dots kind of connect to that, you know,
11:03but look at this glitter.
11:04Oh my God.
11:05I love this for you.
11:06I know, crazy.
11:07They won't see it coming.
11:11I'm almost at my patterns.
11:12Look at this pleated shirling.
11:14Sheeling.
11:15Oh.
11:15It's going to be cool.
11:16This is cool.
11:19Hi, designers.
11:20Hello.
11:21It is feeling so empty in here.
11:25Excited to see what you're all up to.
11:30What's that?
11:31The jacket.
11:32You are nothing if not fast.
11:35Yes.
11:35I really want to steer away from this big oversized opulent coat.
11:40I worry that maybe that's a little too close to my cashmere challenge.
11:43Yeah.
11:43So my thought process here was to maybe tap into another type of coat.
11:47Why not like a raincoat moment out of a shearling material?
11:50Yeah.
11:50I kind of fell in love with doing this pleating with the shearlings,
11:54giving it a really expensive texture.
11:56And then I'm going to be lining everything in the brown piping.
11:59And then I would love to make some thigh high boot covers out of the shearling.
12:03Oh wow.
12:03So the whole look is shearling.
12:05It's entirely going to be shearling.
12:07Push it to another level and make it high fashion and not costume.
12:10I love it.
12:11And that's the challenge.
12:12That's my hope and goal.
12:13This week, we're going to take a break from costume.
12:15This is going to be high fashion.
12:17I'm really confident in this design.
12:19And I think the judges will see that.
12:21It would be incredible to win.
12:23We're going to make this one memorable.
12:24Of course, you're right.
12:34Hi.
12:35Hi Aurora.
12:36How is it going?
12:37I made progress.
12:38How are we going to make this black dress pop?
12:41So the things that I pick up from this are minimalism and luxury.
12:44So I wanted to play around those elements.
12:47I am sort of like manipulating her body a little bit.
12:49Here?
12:50Yeah.
12:50I just wanted to give her Jessica Rabbit.
12:52Oh great.
12:53I really feel like this look is couture.
12:56It's about details.
12:57It's about construction.
12:58Okay.
12:59I think what was so great about last week is you took something that you're really good at,
13:04which is tailoring, and you pushed it to another level and you made it unexpected.
13:08But a black velvet dress can also be predictable.
13:14My biggest struggle is perhaps not doing enough.
13:17And so I really am trying to push myself to do things that are more risky,
13:23things that are more interesting.
13:25You proved yourself last week.
13:26The judges were obsessed.
13:28So let's focus on some drama, you know?
13:35All right, designers.
13:36There's only five of you left.
13:39And now more than ever, everyone has to put their best foot forward.
13:44We have an hour left.
13:46I'm going to see you all tomorrow.
13:49Thank you, Aurora.
13:50Thank you, Aurora.
13:50Thank you, Aurora.
13:57I feel like I'm working slow, but I'm not.
13:59Pattern making took a long time today.
14:01My love for pattern making comes from my couture background.
14:05I worked in London and Dubai, and I didn't have experiences that aren't always positive,
14:10but they've taught me a lot of resilience.
14:12Life isn't perfect.
14:13You're never going to get exactly what you want.
14:16This tattoo represents, like, seam lines.
14:18And the reason why it's disjointed is because seams break, thread breaks,
14:22and you just keep on going on.
14:24So it's a reminder for me to always embrace the imperfections in life.
14:29It makes you really strong, though, I will say.
14:3520 minutes left.
14:36Oh, my God.
14:49All right, guys.
14:50Time's up.
14:51Let's go home for the night.
14:54Let's do it.
15:09I am fully confident in my design.
15:12It's really cheeky.
15:13It's a little bit fun.
15:14It's a nod to streetwear that the judges haven't seen from me yet.
15:17I definitely have a reputation for making things a little bit twisted, a little bit unexpected.
15:23So close to being perfect and then veering off a little bit to the side.
15:28School wasn't always the easiest thing for me.
15:30Being the obviously queer child running around in the early 2000s, I was bullied for a long time.
15:37Not only am I here representing myself, but I'm representing an entire other community of people that stand behind me.
15:43All of the weird queer fashion kids that think they're alone and ostracized.
15:48You're not alone.
15:49One of them is sitting right here.
15:51And I think I'm doing pretty good.
15:53Whew.
15:55The vest is complete.
15:56So how are you guys feeling with the models coming in like no time?
16:02I just want to get this skirt on her so she can figure out how to move in it.
16:06Uh, it's everything's in pieces.
16:08Everyone's pieces are coming together very fast.
16:11And it's scary looking around the room when I only have patterns.
16:16There's a lot to do, as always.
16:18It's looking incredible so far.
16:19It's the scary part because it's just in pieces right now.
16:22All that line matching, all of those seams, it's not easy to do it in that short amount of time.
16:28For me, that's couture.
16:30I just have to sew a bunch of lines everywhere.
16:32I know you're making the fabric.
16:34So, that's what I'm doing.
16:36Good morning, designers.
16:38Hey.
16:38Good morning.
16:39Looks like there's a lot going on in here.
16:41Just thought I would check in, see how things are progressing.
16:49Hey, Amara.
16:50Hi.
16:51You know what I am appreciating?
16:53This shape that you have, that shape's really banging.
16:57And it's a Maya version of a cardigan.
16:59But starting to feel a little chaotic.
17:03This is throwing me, especially in relationship to this.
17:08I struggle with this fabric.
17:09I think you may have to axe the dress.
17:14You could just do a mini dress.
17:17I agree.
17:19It's clashing with the sparkles.
17:20But it's time consuming to make another dress.
17:23I would just focus on making this outerwear piece really extraordinary.
17:28Yeah.
17:28However, at the end of the day, there's no excuses for anything.
17:32It's what's on the runway.
17:33So, we're going to make it happen.
17:36Just focus on making this great.
17:39You must be sewing more padding.
17:48Yeah, I just, um, I'm doing the shoulders now, so.
17:51Do you need me to grab you more padding?
17:53Um, thank you, Aura.
17:56No problem, Al.
18:01I think all of this you need.
18:03I think you should just put it all in.
18:05Once the model comes, we're just going to stuff her like a Thanksgiving turkey.
18:09Come on in, models.
18:17Hello.
18:18Hi.
18:19How are you?
18:20Good, how are you?
18:21This is like what I have for you right now.
18:23Hi, Hailey Leland.
18:24Hey, love to meet you.
18:25Love to meet you.
18:26Oh, oh, you have to see it.
18:29You're going to guess.
18:31Okay, I'm just going to take one measurement.
18:35Loving this drama.
18:37You think it's good?
18:38I think it's good.
18:39I have to tell you, I want to 10x the amount of fill.
18:42Like this, like.
18:45Aurora is so greedy.
18:47I have created a massive, fully boned mermaid skirt, and she wants more.
18:54Well, I'll give you more.
18:55I'm loving where this is going.
18:57I just think you have to pump it up.
18:59I'm going to have to figure out what I'm going to do about this and the shoulders.
19:04But yeah.
19:05Did you make the internal structure?
19:06I did, but I just, I haven't cinched her in.
19:09Okay, yeah.
19:09Hourglass it up.
19:11Hourglass it up.
19:12Yeah, yeah.
19:12Black dresses are hard because they can either be incredibly striking or entirely forgettable.
19:21Is there a world where we cut it scandalously low there?
19:25Opening the back?
19:26Yeah.
19:26I know, Aurora, you want me to show some skin, but do you need to show some skin to be sexy?
19:34The answer is no.
19:36Sometimes simple is impactful.
19:37You're going to want to play with this as well.
19:39Yeah.
19:40We know you can do elegance.
19:41Yeah.
19:42We need drama.
19:42Drama!
19:43Drama.
19:44I will give you drama.
19:46Bear with me while I safety pin.
19:47She glittery.
19:48It's going to give a little Mary J Bly.
19:50You're just going to give like a little J Lo, you know?
19:52It's falling exactly where it needs to fall.
19:54Hey, Charles.
19:56So far, I think it's a very cool idea, but shape wise, it feels a little reminiscent of last week.
20:03Based on the actual cut of the garment, it doesn't feel as surprising.
20:07I'm just, I'm, I'm, I'm just taken aback by this because even though I've explored volume in numerous
20:14ways, it's always been flattering. It's always been different.
20:17Looking at your flannel, and I'm looking at this dress, and I'm wondering if the judges are going
20:24to be able to connect it to the flannel.
20:25The only things that pop out to me are the lines, and so my design is literally about the lines.
20:31So if there's any way to keep pushing yourself, we'd just love to see it.
20:35I don't feel like I'm being comfortable. I think taking risks, I think it's going to translate quite
20:40well. So I'm sticking to my gut, and I'm going for it.
20:44I love it.
20:46Yeah.
20:46All right, designers, that's it with your models.
20:49Bye.
20:50You're incredible.
20:51See you tomorrow.
20:52I'll see you tomorrow. I can't wait. I'm so excited.
20:54Bye.
20:55Remember, this is cost-friendly, couture-inspired, runway ready.
21:00You're the final five.
21:02Show us why on the runway.
21:03All right.
21:03Bye.
21:04Bye, world.
21:05Bye, world.
21:05Good luck.
21:06You guys, we're like final five.
21:07We made it through all the trials and tribulations.
21:10We've been through a lot together.
21:11When this is all over, who are you guys most excited to see?
21:14My mom.
21:14Aww.
21:15I'm just excited to see like my Chinese family and stuff, you know?
21:18Yeah.
21:19Yeah.
21:19The people at the mall.
21:20Oh my god, I'm so excited to go back to the mall.
21:23This past year, I was able to open up my own storefront in Chinatown.
21:27I walk up to it some days and like I'll cry because of how proud I am that I did that,
21:33you know?
21:33I'm like we're, I'm a poor kid from Chinatown and now I'm like in Chinatown living my dream.
21:39Last week I was in the bottom, so this week I really feel like I got to prove myself.
21:43I'm gonna make some more belts.
21:45No handbag?
21:45I love a handbag with an outfit.
21:53I mean like that's a hood.
21:54Indeed, a hood it is.
21:59Five minutes, designers.
22:03I wish there was more time.
22:05Once again, the main issue is time management and I'm getting stressed out.
22:09I don't usually do glitter, glitz, or even fabrics like this, but I want to win.
22:15It is runway day and we've got a lot to get done.
22:35My skirt has yet to be finished and I still have to accentuate these hips with those detached hoods to
22:41max out the impact of this look.
22:43I have to get the hem done on this skirt.
22:46That's a big hem.
22:48Looking around the room, these shapes are more on the subdued side, especially for a couture challenge.
22:55So I'm hoping this massive skirt helps me stand out later today on that runway.
22:59I still have to add more stuffing to this beast.
23:02What do you think about this?
23:04Ooh, I like that a lot.
23:06Yeah.
23:06I'm gonna remove these other ones and see.
23:08I decided to scrap the rhinestone sparkle.
23:11The Damonte detailing just looks cheap.
23:14I'll do one here so this makes sense.
23:16Yeah.
23:17And then a tiny one just in the front.
23:19And I think that's a very elegant take on the bow.
23:22Good morning, designers.
23:23Good morning.
23:25I hope you all are ready for your models.
23:27Oh yeah.
23:28Come on in, models.
23:29What?
23:30Good morning.
23:31Hey, good morning.
23:33I can't wait for you to try this on.
23:35All right.
23:35How are we feeling this morning?
23:37Feeling good.
23:38I remade the dress.
23:41Okay.
23:42Is this supposed to be straight?
23:44Yes, like that.
23:45Okay.
23:46And then this goes like this.
23:49So I just want to make sure I'm understanding
23:51what the shape is supposed to be.
23:53Yeah.
23:54Because this has to really be like perfect.
23:57It looks messy.
23:59I am very stressed.
24:00There's still so much to do,
24:01but I just want to really show the judges
24:04the construction and attention to detail I can really do.
24:07Just keep perfecting this.
24:09Yeah.
24:12So much work.
24:14This is so cool.
24:16It's sexy on a budget.
24:17I mean, less fabric.
24:18It makes sense.
24:19All right, let's unpin you.
24:21Foster, this zipper, is there any way to cover it?
24:23You really don't like the zipper?
24:25No, I think the zipper's really competing with the bows.
24:28I just wanted a break in the dress.
24:30The break in the dress should be her skin.
24:32We've already spoken about that.
24:33Aurora, I am not snipping the back of this dress.
24:37This is sexy to me.
24:39I am God smacked right now.
24:41This is so fun.
24:43And I was thinking maybe gloves, but I wouldn't honestly.
24:46And oh my God, Mr. Edit.
24:49Mrs. Edit, if you're nasty.
24:50All right, when you're ready, it's time to take your models to the L'Oreal Paris Glam Room.
24:55So we're thinking for the makeup, we'll do like a smoky eye and a luscious lip.
25:05Oh, I love that.
25:07So I have infallible plump ambition lip oil.
25:10It's going to give her this soft, plump naturally.
25:12She'll feel a bit of this tingle as it works its magic.
25:16I'm making a purse in the next 10 minutes.
25:18off.
25:20I told you it would happen.
25:22I told you.
25:22I was like, a little bit of purse.
25:24And look, now there's a purse.
25:33Yay? Nay?
25:35I can't.
25:36I can't right now.
25:37I'm sorry.
25:37All right, designers.
25:39Time is up.
25:40Dart heading to the runway.
25:46This is it.
25:47I hope the judges like my look.
25:48I really want to make it to the finale.
25:50But someone will have to go and there's no more fat to trim.
25:54We are all taking risks that I don't think we would have taken a couple of challenges ago.
25:58The stakes are high.
26:02All right, designers.
26:03It's runway time.
26:05Let's do this.
26:06Yay, let's go.
26:07Let's go.
26:07Let's go.
26:08Woo.
26:09We did it.
26:24Hello, designers.
26:25Hey.
26:25Hello.
26:27This week, you're tasked with creating a look that was couture-inspired and cost-conscious.
26:34Giant tiger style.
26:35We wanted you to dream big on a budget.
26:39Say hello to your judges.
26:41Fashion designer, Spencer Badu.
26:43Hey, designers.
26:44Hey.
26:44Fashion journalist, Jeannie Becker.
26:47I feel like giving you all a group hug.
26:49Oh.
26:49I win.
26:51Someone's missing.
26:53Someone's missing.
26:54Why is our guest, Josh?
26:55No way.
26:57Please welcome celebrated CFDA designer, mentor, producer, and my ride-or-die, the one and only...
27:07Oh, my God.
27:09Oh, my God.
27:10Christian Siriano.
27:11Oh, my God.
27:16Oh, my God.
27:18I could piss my pants right now.
27:23Show us how it's done.
27:23I'll walk for you, but I can't, but I'll be here for you.
27:28Woo!
27:30Christian Siriano is here.
27:32I've always looked up to him.
27:33I'm so excited.
27:34I'm so nervous.
27:36The pressure's increased because he knows what's going on here.
27:39He's done it.
27:40Please be nice, Christian.
27:42Please.
27:43Should we get this show started?
27:45Yes!
27:47Let's do it.
27:55The coat looks incredible.
27:56This skirt, this flouncing is bouncing as she's taking each step.
28:01So much.
28:03This isn't a costume, and the full look is perfect.
28:14My look is everything I wanted to say.
28:16It's boyfriend flannel meets revenge dress.
28:20I love all the cutouts, the open back, how it feels young, fresh.
28:24It is not about how much you spend.
28:27It's about how you style it, how you feel in it.
28:29And that is exactly what I did.
28:31This is couture.
28:37It's gorgeous.
28:38This is a full lined coat.
28:41It feels wearable, but also couture and elevated.
28:46And I think it represents the inspiration piece well without being too literal.
28:52I'm really happy with the overall design of the look.
28:54She looks ethereal.
29:00This look is couture.
29:03I love the bows on the sleeves.
29:05It feels rich.
29:07This is everything my brand is about.
29:09And I hope that I don't think I am playing it safe.
29:12The silhouette, it's an architectural dream.
29:21And it was a huge undertaking.
29:25She looks like a wind of a ride.
29:26The hoods on the hips are doing exactly what I wanted them to do.
29:30I love a monochromatic look.
29:33This looks priceless.
29:35Oh, let's all do it too.
29:45Designers, please step up to the runway.
29:51There are only five of you left.
29:53And tonight, one of you will be the winner.
29:58And one of you will be out.
30:02We'd like to speak to each one of you about your designs.
30:05Let's start with one of our top scores of tonight.
30:14Curtis, stretching a dollar has never looked so good.
30:18The giant tiger inspiration piece that I got was the off-white puffer vest.
30:23And to create this couture look, I spent $212.
30:27I wanted to find one fabric and showcase my technique and my skill.
30:31And I'm really happy with the way it turned out.
30:33To do a monochromatic look that is really powerful is really hard to do.
30:38And it looks way more than $200.
30:41Thank you. That means a lot coming from you.
30:42So thank you so much.
30:43This was artistry to me of the highest order.
30:46It's experimental.
30:48It's everything that fashion forward couture should be.
30:52There's so much detail.
30:53My favorite part is the hood, the little spikes on the top.
30:57And I just love how you make everything a little punk when you can.
31:00I wish it was a little more puffy in it, just to give a little of that exaggeration.
31:04But I'm really impressed with this.
31:06Thank you, Curtis.
31:08Let's bring out one of our least favorite looks of the night.
31:14Foster.
31:15I wanted to embody the inspiration piece from Giant Tiger.
31:22I wanted to keep the idea of timelessness, simplicity and elegance.
31:26And my look cost $261.
31:29I think you really know who you are.
31:33You are all about elegance and you know how to deliver it.
31:37But as it came down the runway, it just didn't really inspire me because it seemed like a dress
31:42that I'd seen many, many, many times before.
31:45It's a basic velvet tube dress.
31:47Like anybody could make an intern could have made that in 20 minutes.
31:50It's just not enough.
31:51One of the things that grabbed my attention maybe not in the best way was the zipper in the back.
31:56So I went for the silver zipper because I thought the silver would play on the bow.
32:01You don't like that zipper.
32:02There's no way.
32:03Turn around really quick.
32:04That bubbly, bumpy, silver zipper down the back.
32:09You don't like that zipper.
32:10Get out of here.
32:12I actually think the bows are quite interesting.
32:15They're really beautiful how you did them.
32:17But I think they could have been so much more.
32:19Thank you, Foster.
32:20This next look is one of our favorites.
32:27Leland, you gave his tiger, not kitten.
32:30I spent 330, but only because the shearling was so expensive to get.
32:34When we see a shearling coat, there's usually not much detail because the fabric itself is so difficult to work with.
32:40And I challenged myself to actually pleat it and give it some structure to really give it couture and high fashion.
32:47Every penny wasn't wasted.
32:49That bag is great.
32:51The shoes are great.
32:52Had you not had those things, I think it wouldn't have been as successful.
32:55If I was going to hit the top of my budget, I really wanted to make sure I could give the customer as much as they could have.
33:00I was like, you know, it's Mariah in Aspen. She got out of the car. Everyone's following her around.
33:06And I just love that feeling right away. Like I envisioned someone wearing it.
33:10All the pieces were fantastic. Fun and sassy. The whole thing. I'm just, kudos.
33:17I love the detail. I love the line play. The trim is like chef's kiss.
33:22This is great. Good job, Leland.
33:23Thank you so much. I really appreciate it, you guys.
33:25The next design received one of the low scores.
33:30Maya, I spent $283. My inspiration piece was the long cardigan with the snowflakes and the polka dots and the stripes.
33:41It was just too many elements. It felt heavy. It looked rushed. And I can see that all on the runway.
33:47The hardest part of this challenge for me was finding the fabrics. I don't usually use sparkly things.
33:54If you don't use glitter fabric, then why'd you pick it?
33:58I wanted to step outside of my comfort zone. And when I saw this fabric, it really spoke to the old princess movie animations.
34:07Hmm.
34:09There's always such poetry to what you do. And I totally got the snow queen idea. Just the execution lacked something.
34:17I don't think the front looks great. It doesn't really close, but does it close? So I'm just very confused.
34:23I think for this, you know, you missed the mark. I do know that I could have done something better.
34:28Thank you, Maya. Thank you so much. And our final look of the night.
34:32So it cost $267. The piece I got was a flannel plaid shirt. I wanted to take something sexy from a casual piece.
34:45I really like this look. You use the springboard of that plaid flannel shirt that was just so unassuming and so basic and so comfortable and you took it to a fantasy level.
34:55I really see the vision. I love the shoulders. There's something very strong about it. And the cutout's sexy. I was really impressed by it.
35:02Thank you so much.
35:03What's cool about this is that it's just kind of a modern silhouette, but you're missing some plaid elements, though, I will say.
35:10The connection is a bit off, but I still think it's really interesting. And I think a lot of young, cool actresses would wear this. That's what I like about it.
35:19But the inspiration should be somewhat there. And that's the problem. Not one of my favorites. I just don't see flannel and I don't feel flannel.
35:27I enjoy this look.
35:29Thank you, designers.
35:33We have some very difficult decisions to make.
35:37Jeannia, you're a little emotional right now.
35:39I'm emotional about all of these kids. I call you kids. I'm just so proud of all of you and you're on a path and you've got a clear vision.
35:47Thank you, Jeannia.
35:49Thank you, Jeannia.
35:51You've given us a lot to think about and you can all leave the runway.
36:01Well, that was a divisive one.
36:03What a time.
36:05Fun.
36:09All right, let's talk about our favorite and not so favorite looks of the night, Curtis and Leland.
36:15I love both the designs.
36:17But you've got to give Charles' credit. That was a beautiful dress.
36:21Oh, I like the plaid look. I did like that.
36:23I loved all three, too.
36:25I know, Coco, but I thought it was kind of fabulous.
36:27I don't know what you were seeing.
36:29You're not on the top, too.
36:31I think if the plaid was really done perfectly.
36:33If it was done perfectly.
36:34I know.
36:35But it wasn't.
36:36If you're going to do flannel, go for it.
36:37If you went on some other material and put some lines on it, it was like, that's flannel.
36:40Here's the thing.
36:41We have Curtis, who spent the least amount of all of the designers.
36:45And then you have Leland, who spent the most of all the designs.
36:48So those are our top two.
36:49And what are we going to do?
36:50We're going to go with a superior look.
36:53I really did like Curtis, the parka couture moment.
36:57I like the weirdness of it.
36:59The idea is a bit off.
37:01I really appreciate the imagination.
37:03It felt like something that, you know, we'd see in a couture show.
37:07But Leland's oozed attitude.
37:09I know the struggles that he's probably had trying to not make it too costumey.
37:14He really showed that he knows how to make beautiful garments.
37:18The detail that he put and the work that went into that shearling look was so beautiful.
37:23I agree.
37:24I love that.
37:25Yes, he spent a significant amount of money, but we got a bag.
37:28We got a pair of shoes and we got a coat.
37:31I think he did the budget justice.
37:33All right.
37:34But who do we think should go home tonight?
37:35For me, I think it's between Foster and Maya.
37:38Foster, very safe and that doesn't keep you in this competition.
37:42The zipper in the back sadly ruined it for me because it was buckling.
37:46It was the only thing you could really like notice that was a different detail.
37:49And like why put a metal zipper in a black velvet gown?
37:51Like that is insane.
37:52And then we had Maya.
37:54I mean, this girl loves the story.
37:56It's like the snow queen.
37:57She didn't make it happen for me.
37:59I think she got lost.
38:00She just really wasn't inspired by that sweater at all.
38:03She wasn't.
38:04I think at this point in the competition, execution really matters a lot.
38:10I think we made our decisions.
38:13Let's bring out the designers.
38:19You all created unique and imaginative looks while keeping things fiercely frugal.
38:23Only one of you will be the winner and one of you will be out.
38:29Charles, you are in and you can leave the runway.
38:34Curtis and Leland, tonight's winner didn't just deliver a look.
38:43They delivered a whole lifestyle.
38:46The winner of this challenge is Leland.
38:53Yes!
38:54Yes!
38:55I can't believe that shearling outfit came through.
39:00And the fact that Christian Siriano loved it too.
39:03In 10 years, if I can be the Christian Siriano of Canada, it would mean everything.
39:09And to help you keep dreaming big, Giant Tiger is rewarding you with $5,000 cash.
39:16Yay!
39:17Oh my God.
39:18Congratulations.
39:19Thank you so much, you guys.
39:20I really appreciate it.
39:22Curtis, you're still in.
39:25You can both leave the runway.
39:31Guess what?
39:32Who won?
39:33Yes!
39:34Well done, Baba.
39:35Yay!
39:37I'm literally so happy.
39:39Maybe I'm not just a costume designer.
39:41Maybe I'm a designer.
39:44And it makes me really excited for what's to come.
39:47Maybe what's to come is a faux fur shearling coat.
39:52Maya and Foster, you both took a leap.
39:57Unfortunately, one of you will be out.
40:00Maya, we know you have vision, but tonight your outfit lacked focus.
40:07Foster, at this point in the competition, we need you to get loud.
40:13Maya, I'm sorry, but you are out.
40:14Thank you, judges.
40:15Foster, you're still in and you can leave the runway.
40:16Thank you so much.
40:19I'm sorry, but you are out.
40:20Thank you, judges.
40:21Foster, you're still in and you can leave the runway.
40:22Thank you so much.
40:24Oh!
40:25We're so proud of you.
40:26Bring it in.
40:27I was able to do enough.
40:28Rough to you.
40:29It was a really tough week.
40:30I'm glad I have another chance.
40:31I'm going to have to fight.
40:33Maya, we see your vision.
40:34We know you're a storyteller and we can't wait to see where the next chapter holds.
40:37Thank you for the opportunity.
40:38I'm still really proud of myself.
40:39You should be.
40:40Come here.
40:41You've got a bright future ahead of you, darling.
40:44Well, Dan.
40:45Hey.
40:46Maya.
40:47You've got a bright future ahead of you, darling.
40:49Well, Dan.
40:50Hey.
40:51Hi.
40:52Hi.
40:53Hi.
40:54Hi.

41:12Hi.
41:13Hi.
41:14How are you feeling?
41:15How do you think?
41:16All right.
41:17Yes.
41:18I just want you to know, like, we are so proud of you, no matter what, okay?
41:23Are you going to be a superstar after this?
41:25For sure.
41:26Thanks guys.
41:28Maya, I think you have so much vision.
41:34You are at the very beginning of your career and we will continue to see you.
41:42see you. I think it's time to say goodbye to everyone.
41:46What? Thank you. I didn't think it was going to be me. Right now I'm just
41:50disappointed in myself and that I didn't do better. But I still
41:54think that everything I did screams
41:58me and that I never compromised myself for what I love
42:02to do and I had so much fun the whole time. My last kisses
42:06to all of you. I'm still in progress.
42:10I still have so much to learn and I hope that this leads to
42:14the opportunities that can open a world that I don't even know exists.
42:22Next time on Project Runway Canada. Cheers to Final Four.
42:26Just one more challenge dance in the way.
42:30This is the dream for any designer. This is a huge risk
42:34but I'm pushing myself to my absolute limit. I just hope this piece
42:38is taking me to the finale. Tonight will be someone's final chapter.
42:42Three of you will be in
42:44and one of you will be out.
42:46One of you will be in
42:52and one of you will be in
42:54and one of you is
42:56a beautiful gift of
42:58the way.
43:00One of you will be in
43:02the moment.
43:06It is a huge difference.
43:08One of you will be in
43:10and one of you will be in
