00:10Good morning, designers.
00:12Congratulations on making it to final five.
00:15But now the fight truly begins.
00:17Am I going to be making, like, wrestling shorts
00:20or some sort of costume?
00:22Go meet Tim and some very special guests
00:24to find out what's in store.
00:26Good luck.
00:27Do you think they're going to make us fight it out?
00:30It's not a bad boxing glove.
00:32Pink.
00:34That's the key.
00:42They're good.
00:45Oh, look at Tim.
00:47Oh, my God.
00:49Tim is in sweats.
00:50That's so wrong.
00:51All right, that is time.
00:54Gather round, please.
00:55Designers, did you ever think you'd find yourselves
00:57in a boxing ring?
00:58No.
00:59No.
01:00I didn't either.
01:01Please join me in welcoming our special guest for Avon,
01:05Evie DeAngelis.
01:06Welcome.
01:07I'm so excited to be here and to tell you about your next challenge.
01:11At Avon, our mission is to improve the lives of women globally.
01:15For over 60 years, Avon and the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade
01:19have been helping to provide quality breast cancer care to women across the country,
01:23regardless of their ability to pay.
01:25And Avon also funds research into finding better treatments for the future.
01:29That is wonderful.
01:30Avon is committed to giving women help for today and hope for tomorrow.
01:36Hi, designers.
01:37I'm Michelle.
01:38And at 39 years old, I'm a two-time breast cancer survivor.
01:41My family was my main inspiration for being a warrior.
01:45My daughter was just over one when I was last diagnosed.
01:49Being around for them, that is why I fight.
01:52My grandmother had breast cancer and it's just, it puts everything into perspective beyond
01:58the emotions of like Project Runway.
01:59But this is on another level.
02:01Hi, I'm Tawana.
02:03I've been a survivor for 10 months now.
02:06And what inspired me to fight is my husband, my family, and grandchildren.
02:12I've had several friends who have had breast cancer.
02:16Everyone can say that they know or personally have had a family member who's been affected.
02:21I want to inspire other women that has this disease.
02:23You are certainly warrior women in the battle.
02:26And designers, that is our point of departure for this challenge.
02:30You are to create a high fashion, editorial look inspired by warrior women.
02:37How you interpret that is completely up to you.
02:40So to get you in the mood for this challenge, we are going to have you engage in a boxing
02:46boot camp.
02:52I have nothing against like boxing, but like, I don't like to hit people.
02:57Give me time, come on.
02:59Come on, Brandon.
03:00Push, come on.
03:02One-two, one-two.
03:03Go, Katara.
03:05One-two, come on.
03:06One-two, come on.
03:07Push, push.
03:08Two.
03:09Yeah!
03:09Very good, great.
03:11Woo!
03:12Well, it's very evident that some of you have had some built-up aggression.
03:17So I'm glad you had an opportunity to get it out.
03:19You will have 30 minutes to sketch.
03:21Then we're going off to mood where you'll have a budget of $250.
03:25And this is a two-day challenge.
03:27Okay, okay.
03:28All right?
03:28Okay.
03:29And since this is your Avon challenge, the makeup look you will create for your models,
03:34it's going to be very, very important.
03:37All right.
03:38All right.
03:38Have fun.
03:41Christina.
03:42Yay!
03:47Cancer is like chaos, right?
03:49Your whole life is in shambles.
03:51What I'm sketching is like this.
03:53And then I'm doing this, like, corset to kind of like pull it out and together.
03:57It's like love, family, a support team.
04:01Kind of like keep it all together.
04:07All right, designers.
04:08You're 30 minutes begins now.
04:14I'll be back.
04:15Oh, this is pretty.
04:17Thank you so much.
04:19It's like armor.
04:2040 to long.
04:22I like that.
04:22Designers, you have 10 minutes remaining.
04:24I'm gonna ask you.
04:25Oh, love, love, love, love, love it.
04:30Time is up.
04:32You didn't like that, did you?
04:34I didn't like that at all.
04:36All right, Swatch.
04:37I promise I'm done.
04:38Thank you, Moon.
04:40Wow.
04:40Don't blow a whistle around Swatch.
04:42Swatch, we're so sorry.
04:47The game is beginning.
04:58Everyone else is like pattern making and they're cutting and they're moving around.
05:03I'm sitting here sucking down caffeine because I have no idea what I am making.
05:21I love gold.
05:23Zach really kind of requested to see what my point of view is.
05:27He feels like he doesn't know.
05:28This is tomorrow.
05:29So I feel like this garment is really gonna do that for me.
05:35I'm just trying to figure out whether I just like take it in on the side or like do like
05:39a box pleat here.
05:40I want to get the pant mostly if not completely finished tonight.
05:43This drop crotch, it's something that I'm very comfortable with and that I wear a lot.
05:48So I'm not worried about it at all.
05:50I think this is better.
05:51It looks like I have huge penis.
05:54Kintar.
05:54Good?
05:55Good.
06:02That's how I'm gonna slow down.
06:04Luckily we have all day tomorrow.
06:05Don't panic.
06:07I'm already panicked.
06:08The most important piece in my look is the blouse.
06:12I have a lot of detail.
06:14There are buttonholes.
06:15There are cuffs.
06:16There are ruffles.
06:17Like it's a lot.
06:18And the shirt is taking longer than I planned.
06:21Let me see your front.
06:23I like it.
06:25Thanks.
06:26I feel defeated.
06:29Day one is over.
06:30I got nothing.
06:32Let's get out of here.
06:33My head hurts.
06:35My stomach hurts.
06:36I need to brush my teeth.
06:37We are so close to Fashion Week that it's almost like the air is tight.
06:44Like I feel like I'm suffocating from New York Fashion Week.
06:49Coming up on Project Runway.
06:52Margaritas looks bad.
06:54Brandon and Cantaro, their looks are very, very similar.
06:57Are you mad I did this?
06:59It's wacky, but it's impeccable.
07:01I can't see her body at all.
07:04I had great hopes for you.
07:15Let the games continue.
07:18It's D2.
07:19The challenge is to create a high fashion editorial look inspired by women warriors that have been battling breast cancer.
07:28It's pretty close to my heart.
07:29So I'm feeling really emotional.
07:32It looks good.
07:33Beautiful.
07:34Thanks.
07:35I'm still figuring it out.
07:36I want to have it kind of come out of here.
07:38If you want to do, you only can tie it.
07:41I want to keep pumping out fresh silhouettes playing with form and shape.
07:45It's so similar to.
07:46To what yours?
07:48Why even close?
07:50It's okay.
07:51Oh, it's completely different.
07:52Yeah.
07:53He has a hoodie and a turtleneck.
07:55And I have kind of a hoodie and turtleneck.
07:57But they're done in completely different ways.
07:59Are you mad I did this?
08:00No.
08:01Okay.
08:02It happened to be, you know?
08:03The brothers, Brandon and Cantaro, their looks are very, very similar.
08:08Maybe they really are brothers.
08:10That's good.
08:12I'm thinking of a woman standing with her hands on her hips and so much attention is drawn to the
08:17shoulders.
08:18So I've cut out the exaggerated petals.
08:21I wanted like a strong shoulder.
08:23I'm still not 100% on the direction that I'm going.
08:26But at least I'm working on something.
08:31Hi.
08:32Hi, Kate.
08:33Well, I'm here to check in with you.
08:34I can't wait to see what you're doing.
08:36All right.
08:36Okay.
08:37How's Ayana?
08:38So here's what I'm making.
08:40It's kind of like a play on the power suit.
08:43I'm with you.
08:43I wanted to play with a little bit of volume because it's an editorial.
08:48I'm crazy about the top.
08:49Oh, thanks.
08:50For me, it's a real wow moment.
08:52Okay.
08:52Awesome.
08:53Awesome.
08:53That's what I was going for.
08:54Do not say that casually, as you know.
08:56Yes.
08:57I am going to try to make this one.
09:00It's kind of go oversized off shoulder.
09:03So tell me why you executed this.
09:05Oh, I kind of wanted to do this one.
09:07But I wanted to have this one inside and black on top of this one.
09:11But this started to look like outer.
09:14Mm-hmm.
09:14It does.
09:15Yeah.
09:16And it kind of it is.
09:17I will also say, make certain you don't have too many competing ideas.
09:23You want it to be all of a single piece as opposed to look at all these ideas.
09:30Mm-hmm.
09:30Which ones do you like?
09:31Mm-hmm.
09:32Well, Brandon, there is no doubt who this designer is.
09:36Which is good.
09:37Yeah.
09:37I mean, you have a signature.
09:38So when I thought warrior, I was thinking nomadic warrior.
09:42Androgynous kind of, but again, me.
09:45And so I'm going with like this really elongated crotch.
09:49You'll be able to see the underneath pant.
09:51And then I'm just trying to figure out the top right now.
09:53But it's going to be the same play on the pink and the brown.
09:56Since this is so clearly your signature as a designer,
10:00do you feel you're doing enough to push this to a point where the judges will feel
10:05it's beyond what they've seen from you?
10:09Um.
10:10Are you taking that extra step to say, I need to win this?
10:16No, I hear what you're saying.
10:17I do.
10:18Okay, Kenya.
10:20What's going on?
10:21I just got like a creative black space.
10:25In the meantime, I'm just sewing.
10:27I'm just sewing and I'm just sewing and you know.
10:31What's guiding you towards this?
10:33This is like the warrior aspect.
10:35I wanted to do like a ton of these and have it like really big and play off the shoulders.
10:40I'm with you.
10:40And you know, be like, you know, I am woman.
10:43Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:44In fact, I would suggest that the entire top just be these.
10:49Yeah.
10:49And lots more of them.
10:51I think I agree with that.
10:53If I can remove myself out of the way and allow myself to be great, there's no stopping me.
11:01And how's Margarita?
11:04It's very emotional.
11:05Why is it so emotional for you?
11:07You know, it's just a tough thing, you know?
11:09It affects all of us.
11:09It happens to all of us.
11:10I think it's much more emotional for a woman.
11:12It has to be.
11:12Yeah.
11:13It really got to me.
11:14So instantly I knew I wanted to capture that chaos and that, you know, awful despair.
11:21And kind of contain it.
11:24The organza is all this crazy darkness.
11:27And with that, I wanted to do, you know, a fitted corset.
11:30So essentially it will look like this.
11:35How do you feel the gold works with the red?
11:41Is it too Wonder Woman costumey?
11:45Margaritas look, it's very literal.
11:48It just looks bad.
11:50I'm struggling with that, too.
11:52It's a really scary time to take a risk and do something crazy and big.
11:57I don't want to go home.
12:00Coming up on Project Runway.
12:06Uh-oh.
12:07It's not fitting.
12:08I don't know what's going to happen.
12:10Any tiny little mistake can send you home.
12:13I refuse to go home.
12:17My concern is, is it too Wonder Woman costumey?
12:21I'm struggling with that, too.
12:22I think you're right on the precipice.
12:26And I think that that's...
12:30Fantastic.
12:33Yay.
12:34Great. Thank you very much.
12:36I'm so happy.
12:38Okay.
12:38All right.
12:39I believe.
12:40I'm with you.
12:41That's all I need.
12:44Okay.
12:45All right, designers.
12:46I'm blown away.
12:48It's not only the quality of the work, it's the sophistication.
12:51It's the maturity.
12:52We know it's a competition, but you won't look like winners.
12:58You will have your Avon makeup consultations with Hector later.
13:02He'll help you bring your overall makeup vision to life.
13:06Take care.
13:07I'll see you later.
13:08Thank you, guys.
13:13Looking good.
13:15Thanks.
13:15Once Tim leaves, I really have to play with drape and volume.
13:19You know, if it doesn't look right, I think the concept will be lost.
13:23I'm still debating if the gold is going to go on the boobs or just like the belt.
13:27Any tiny little mistake can send you home.
13:30I refuse to go home.
13:32Are you changing your design after Tim's critique, Ayana?
13:35No, no, not at all.
13:36He liked it.
13:36What about you?
13:37Me?
13:38Yeah.
13:39I don't know.
13:41I'm just kind of thinking of like how it's going to come out.
13:45I mean, I'll be happy in a few hours later, but I might not be happy in a few hours
13:50later.
13:50Maybe I do like this.
13:52Interesting, no?
13:54Yeah.
13:54I think in Tara, it is very conceptual.
13:57You never know what to expect until he's finished.
14:00Hi!
14:01How are you?
14:02How are you?
14:03The vibe is sleek, slightly preppy.
14:06Leave it really simple.
14:07Okay.
14:08Right?
14:08We got a new product.
14:10It's the illuminated stick and champagne is perfect.
14:13And we can use also in the eyes.
14:16Okay.
14:16But you see how the skin is already starting to look really beautiful.
14:20Oh, yeah.
14:20I love it.
14:21I'm making her a red ball gown.
14:24Power woman corset made out of this gold.
14:27The eyes, let's do a smokey eye with the band gold.
14:31And the spellbound, that is a little bit dark and they have also a little bit of gold.
14:35So we do a combination of these two.
14:38Smokey eye.
14:39The gold.
14:40So good.
14:41Yeah.
14:42Hey Jeff.
14:44You know what Benjamin?
14:45No.
14:46Beautiful.
14:47Oh, nice.
14:48So, thinking about warrior, I got this like nomadic, kind of androgynous.
14:52Mostly the eyes I think are going to be like the most prominent thing there.
14:56Let's do a raccoon eye for her.
14:58And let's use the desert sunset quad combination with all these colors in the eye.
15:06That's perfect.
15:08Beautiful.
15:09Hector.
15:10Good.
15:11I'm thinking even like a soft like in a light blue, navy blue like smoky eye and then just
15:18kill her in the mascara.
15:19You know what I'm saying?
15:20Let's do this two blue combination that's got gray with your dress.
15:24And this is from the Mark singles.
15:27Oh, yeah.
15:28I need that blue to just pop off of her lid.
15:30Like, I'm happy.
15:33So, I'm planning to do this like high neck.
15:36Okay.
15:36So, you don't see anything but beautiful face.
15:39It's this color.
15:40Mm-hmm.
15:40For the lips.
15:41Whoa.
15:42Velvet lip paint and a fantasy.
15:44Because I know...
15:45I'm scared a little bit but...
15:46I know you're scared.
15:47This color, they give you really graphic lines.
15:52You look cute.
15:54You don't look like you're convinced.
15:59I'm waiting to work with you so I'm really excited about this.
16:03Well, it's an honor and a pleasure.
16:05A model connects with the designer in a certain way and it means something and it translates
16:10to the runway.
16:11It's an honor and a pleasure as well.
16:12I have been waiting to work with Lyris since the beginning of the competition.
16:17When you're a woman of size, I feel like you have more to prove when you get dressed.
16:21I think that, you know, it's easy for a size two to throw on the tank and some jeans and
16:25she's done.
16:26But if a woman who is a size 18 does the same thing, she has to be more polished.
16:31So, I feel like I have to represent in a sense.
16:34Oh my God.
16:36Oh my goodness.
16:36This is so cool.
16:39This is so cool.
16:40Whoever's watching the show right now is so jealous.
16:43You like it?
16:44Yes.
16:45The look.
16:46It reminds me kind of like a real life game character in like the warrior sense.
16:51So, I just need to like have attitude.
16:53I'm getting like ninja girl.
16:55She's ready to go kick some ass.
16:57Ready?
16:58Mm-hmm.
16:59Jasmine, she has really big hair.
17:02It's gonna be a struggle.
17:05I mean...
17:05Uh-oh.
17:08Are you okay?
17:09Uh-huh.
17:10I'm gonna get a shoulder.
17:11Oh my God.
17:13Okay.
17:14Sorry.
17:20I almost can't breathe, but I'm still alive so far.
17:26See, this skirt is going to fit like this.
17:30Okay.
17:31If the fit ain't right, everything's off.
17:34I'm really excited.
17:35I love the top.
17:37It feels like a roaming gladiator.
17:38I'm gonna bring that queen quality to the runway tomorrow.
17:42Kenya does her own thing.
17:44It's not my taste as a designer, but she has her lane and she stays in it.
17:48I'm very excited about this.
17:50It's not fitting.
17:52Maybe...
17:52It's not gonna freeze.
17:53No good.
17:54Like too tight.
17:55What am I gonna do?
17:56Bye guys.
17:57Thanks for being nice.
17:58She's awesome.
18:00Bye.
18:03Beautiful.
18:04Something that good?
18:05I don't wanna jinx it, but I'm feeling it.
18:09How are you feeling, Wyn?
18:10Good.
18:11Good?
18:11How are you?
18:13I don't know.
18:15I'm making new piece.
18:16Why?
18:17Everything was too tight.
18:21Tim was happy with gray sweater, but it was too small.
18:26Poor Kentaro.
18:27I mean, he usually has like a clear head and today he's just like, it's not happening.
18:31What are you making?
18:33I think I'm gonna do like cover over white and I get rid of the gray.
18:38I only have a black backup fabric, so I have to make something out of that.
18:42One more shirt over this one.
18:45No.
18:46Like everything I've been doing, it's not working.
18:48Let's take a look at this.
18:49I started to do things I don't like.
18:51I need to make a belt.
18:53It's time.
18:56Well done.
18:57I don't know what's gonna happen.
19:00Coming up on Project Runway.
19:02I am confused about the top.
19:04Hopefully nobody will notice.
19:07Ayana, you sneaky little thing.
19:09I don't think mine is that worse.
19:22Ayana, you feeling good?
19:23I feel good.
19:24I need to move a little bit faster, but I do feel good.
19:26How much more you gotta do?
19:27Just some hand stitching.
19:29Yeah, that's what I'm doing right now.
19:32I can feel fashion, like I can literally taste it.
19:35Good morning, everyone.
19:36Good morning.
19:38You will have an hour to send your models to the Avon Beauty Lab.
19:41Remember, it's the Avon Makeup Challenge.
19:43And also to our hair studio.
19:45Then you'll have 15 minutes to prep your models for the runway.
19:48You all know to use the JCPenney accessory wall very thoughtfully and carefully.
19:53And Rowenta has supplied you with irons and steamers.
19:56And your models will be coming in momentarily, all right?
19:59All right.
19:59Yes.
20:00All right, we're gonna have a fabulous runway show.
20:02Yes.
20:02I can tell by looking at the work.
20:04I'll see you a little later.
20:05Thanks very much.
20:12I definitely have pushed myself with this concept.
20:14With it being an editorial challenge, I really wanted to have a cool detail from every angle.
20:18And I just made sure there was a 360 bomb piece.
20:23Hey!
20:28This one is a new top.
20:29You took the sweater out?
20:31Yeah.
20:32Can I just pull it?
20:35Good morning.
20:36Good morning.
20:42Hola.
20:43Hola.
20:45I got your face card.
20:47Maybe the lips have to be a little stronger than what we did yesterday.
20:51Yeah, that's perfect.
20:52How are you?
20:54Beautiful.
20:55All gold.
20:56Goddess.
20:58Love it.
20:59I see you again.
21:00So let me add the lips a little bit so you can see the color.
21:04Good.
21:05So I got the face chart for you.
21:07Oh, that's pretty.
21:08So basically this is what it's going to be, right?
21:12Oh, wow.
21:13You're in my mind.
21:14Yeah.
21:16I think that's it.
21:22Good enough.
21:24Good enough?
21:25Mm-hmm.
21:26I cannot be OCD today.
21:28No.
21:32All right, designers.
21:33If you're in the brother sewing and embroidery room, listen up.
21:36In ten minutes, you and your models and I are going down to the runway.
21:40All right?
21:40All right.
21:41Is everyone going to be ready?
21:42Yes.
21:43All right.
21:44Ten minutes.
21:47Breathe in, girlfriend.
21:49I think Margarita went out too literal with the inspiration, the whole warrior theme.
21:54I feel like she has the potential to be the next one eliminated.
21:57Just to know.
21:59Mm-hmm.
21:59Mirror, mirror on the wall.
22:01Who's about to slay them all?
22:07Iyana really stepped it out for this challenge.
22:10I definitely thought I had a winning look, but we'll see.
22:13Iyana, you sneaky little thing.
22:17The finished look is perfect.
22:19It's structured.
22:21It's beautiful.
22:22It has a lot of detail.
22:23I think I look awesome.
22:26Taro finally pulled it together.
22:28I love where he went, his inspiration for it.
22:31And I think it's really cool.
22:33Well, that's a dun, dun, dun.
22:36I don't really love it, but at the end of the day, I made something decent.
22:40I don't think mine is that worst out of everybody else.
22:45And we're going to do squeeze, okay?
22:47Come on, zipper, you can do it.
22:52Once I put everything on Sunita, I see that there's like three inches of underlining neoprene showing.
23:01And I'm like, damn, I didn't account for this.
23:04Now I have to.
23:05And I'm like, I'm just going to stuff a little piece of organza in here and cover it.
23:08And hopefully nobody will notice.
23:10Tuck you in here.
23:12All right, designers and models, we're headed down to the runway.
23:15Follow me, everyone.
23:18Yeah.
23:19Be careful.
23:20I'm feeling insecure about it.
23:22Hopefully my concept can kind of pull through the look.
23:26I have to go to fashion week.
23:28I mean, there's just, I have to.
23:38Hello.
23:39Hello.
23:40Welcome to the runway.
23:41As you know, in fashion one day you're in and the next day you're out.
23:46There are five of you here and after tonight there will be four.
23:48Four.
23:49Oh my gosh.
23:50Four.
23:51Oh my goodness.
23:53You're so close to making it to fashion week.
23:57How are you feeling?
23:58Anxious.
23:59Very anxious.
24:00Yeah.
24:01Why are you giving him a pet on the back?
24:03I'm proud of it.
24:04You think you did the right thing?
24:06I do.
24:06Hey, but this is a competition.
24:08Don't you want to make it to fashion week?
24:09We both can go.
24:12Well, for this challenge you want to create high fashion editorial looks for your warrior woman.
24:19I can't wait to see this.
24:22All right, let's say hello to our judges.
24:24First we have creative director of Brooks Brothers Women and fashion designer Zach Posen.
24:28Hi Zach.
24:28Hi designers.
24:29Creative director for Marie Claire Magazine Nina Garcia.
24:32Hi Nina.
24:33Hello.
24:34And Emmy nominated actress Rachel Brosnahan, star of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
24:39Welcome.
24:40Hi.
24:41Hi.
24:42Also, we have Tim Gunn here for The Runway Show.
24:45Love you, Tim.
24:46And as you know, he is your mentor and will not be judging your looks.
24:50Let's start the show.
25:02Misha looks killer.
25:04She's like the gangster Bo Peep.
25:06She looks dope.
25:07I love that girl crotch.
25:09She looks nomadic and androgynous and like a warrior.
25:13It's everything I wanted her more.
25:28It fits Christina's body really well.
25:30It's strong.
25:32The bottom is just so tailored.
25:34And then the top is very fun.
25:35I feel like it's unexpected.
25:39It definitely represents what I feel is a warrior woman.
25:42I love the fact that this look came together.
26:02It's very powerful in my eyes.
26:05I think the gold and the red work well together.
26:07She looks like a power warrior woman.
26:10I'm just beyond thrilled.
26:23Oh, okay.
26:30Jasmine looks like very majestic and strong.
26:33And she looks very modern.
26:36So that's what I wanted.
26:39I feel good about it.
26:57My look totally represents who I am as a designer.
27:01I put tons and tons of petals on the tops of the shoulders.
27:05And it represents what we carry on our shoulders every single day as women.
27:09My ideal woman would totally wear this.
27:12I would wear this.
27:13And it's beautiful.
27:22There are five of you left.
27:23So we're going to talk to all of you today.
27:25And I have to tell you guys, we over here, we're a little bit all over the place today.
27:31One of you will be named the winner and one of you will be out.
27:39There are five of you left.
27:40So we're going to talk to all of you today.
27:42Kenya, tell us about your look and your inspiration.
27:45This look was very much inspired by the lovely ladies that we met.
27:50A lot of them suffer from breast cancer.
27:52So this is what I came up with in honor of these warrior women.
27:57I love the way Luris looks today.
28:00I really think her curves, everything, it just looks perfect today.
28:04I feel like for the first time really someone got her 100% right.
28:08I think you look amazing.
28:09How do you feel, Luris?
28:10As soon as I put it on, I was just like, yes, I've been waiting for this moment.
28:15This outfit is an example that you don't need hijinks to communicate power.
28:22Here is power on the silhouette.
28:25Here is power in the color.
28:27Here is power in the tailoring.
28:30It's just stunning and it looks so beautiful coming down the runway.
28:34I love the shoulders.
28:36This is something that I would wear.
28:38That's beautiful.
28:39Thank you so much.
28:40Brandon, tell us about your look and your inspiration.
28:43I knew I wanted to kind of do like this nomadic kind of warrior.
28:46And then I found these two colors that I thought looked really quite beautiful.
28:50And it reminded me of like the ice cream sandwich kind of thing.
28:52But it kind of worked in a weird way.
28:54But as I was making it, it kind of took on this like ninja-esque vibe.
28:58And then, yeah, I played with like the drop crotch and this kind of angled cut with the pop of
29:02pan.
29:03And this is my look.
29:05It is out there, but I do feel like you are creating something completely new.
29:13There's a niche for this because it's kind of feminine.
29:16It's masculine at the same time.
29:18I could have maybe done without the baby bonnet.
29:21I kind of want to give her a little bottle.
29:22But then again, it's the runway.
29:24So you are forgiven in a way because it gives it a little extra something.
29:27I agree the bonnet might be a little weird.
29:30Can we see her without the bonnet?
29:32Of course.
29:32No, I love the bonnet.
29:34I like the bonnet, too.
29:35I love the bonnet.
29:36Oh, that's...
29:37I mean...
29:37Fantastic options, Nina.
29:39Fantastic.
29:40It's just great.
29:41I like it better, though.
29:42I love the bonnet.
29:43I really like the bonnet.
29:45It's like armor in a way.
29:47It feels like a modern take on a helmet and a feminine take on a helmet.
29:50I really love that about it, but it looks amazing down.
29:53You play with a lot of elements and they all work.
29:57And, you know, normally I don't like what we would call or we have called poopy pants.
30:01But I think of all of the pants that I've seen on this show, by far this is like from
30:06the back and stuff.
30:07It's really cool how it's cut.
30:10Thank you, Brandon.
30:11Margarita, tell us about your look and your inspiration.
30:13When I walked into the boxing ring, I was kind of taken aback when I saw the ladies.
30:21And it was very personal to me, their stories.
30:24You know, when you hear the news of disease like that, it can be terminal.
30:28It's so chaotic.
30:29So I wanted to contain the chaos with this sort of armor.
30:33Red is my power color.
30:35So I wanted to put her in something that I felt really strongly about.
30:39And we were said that it was editorial.
30:40I pictured her in the ring like tough, but soft.
30:44So I wanted to kind of convey that story.
30:46So I think you have some really nice draping on the bottom of this.
30:50I think that in the end, somehow the containment of the corset did almost the opposite of what you were
31:00intending.
31:00It feels more clubby than armor.
31:03I like the concept of the controlled chaos.
31:08The problem is she looks like she's stuffed in there.
31:13Right?
31:14So it's like stuffed chaos.
31:16And to be honest with you, this looks very much like a costume.
31:21It's a cliche idea that you're going to put a metallic corset and that's going to empower the look.
31:30Thank you, Margarita.
31:35Kentara, tell us about your look and your inspiration.
31:38I feel like they're very strong and majestic and warrior-like ladies.
31:43So I wanted to make something very warrior-like, Japanese samurai-like look.
31:48I can't see her body at all.
31:51And I wish I could a little bit.
31:53I see your inspiration.
31:54And from here, it's hard for me to see some of the details.
31:59I had great hopes for you because I did see you make some very bold changes in your aesthetic.
32:08But you're reverting back to what you're comfortable with.
32:11I'm concerned about an objective in-process editing eye.
32:17I don't have a problem with all black looks.
32:19I don't think it's the most exciting.
32:20But then you have to play with texture or dimension.
32:23Yeah.
32:24I had a texture sweater on the top, but at the end it just didn't fit so.
32:30Coulda, woulda, shoulda.
32:31Yeah.
32:32Yeah, of course, I mean.
32:33Yeah.
32:34It's my fault, 100%.
32:37Could I make a comment?
32:38Yeah.
32:39The more that I see these two looks together, this is a version of Brandon's look only in black.
32:46You've got the turtleneck.
32:47You've got the white underpinnings.
32:49You've got the pieces of string.
32:51I just think these are very close in...
32:55I agree with you.
32:55Vibe.
32:56Vibe.
32:57Who started at the white turtleneck from you guys?
32:59Vibe, we had a sketch at the boxing gym and we don't talk to each other.
33:04So he came out with a turtleneck.
33:06I came out with a turtleneck.
33:08So...
33:08What is around her neck?
33:10What is that?
33:11It's a belt.
33:12Well, it's a belt that you put there as a style.
33:15In Japanese culture, so I just want to put it there.
33:18Okay.
33:18Well, again, it looks very much like Brandon's.
33:22Thank you, Gantara.
33:26Ayana, tell us about your look and your inspiration.
33:29So my inspiration stems from the women in my family.
33:32My mom has eight girls, so it's a lot of us.
33:34There's a lot of woman power.
33:36Wow.
33:36I chose the play on a power suit.
33:38I wanted it to be strong, but not hard.
33:40And then also to capture the editorial feeling,
33:44I wanted to create something that was picturesque from all angles.
33:48It's wacky, but it's impeccable.
33:50When she walked down that runway
33:51and I saw how every stripe matched on the inside of the leg,
33:56I'm blown away.
33:57Oh, thanks.
33:59I feel like a lot of times as a woman,
34:01you feel like you have power when you show some skin,
34:03you show either some legs or some cleavage.
34:05She is showing none of that.
34:08And she looks so powerful and strong and sexy
34:12without showing any skin at all.
34:14So much going on.
34:15And you could be like, wow, it's too busy, but it's not.
34:17It was very nice to see you evolve.
34:21I know you do a lot of gowns.
34:23They're very elegant.
34:25So to see you do pants and play with the masculine
34:29and the feminine so well was refreshing.
34:36Okay, we've heard what you had to say.
34:38We're taking a closer look at your designs,
34:40have a little chat, and then I call you back onto the runway.

35:40Hi, Tim.
35:40Hello, ladies.
35:42Hi.
35:43Hi.
35:44Would you like to begin with Lyrus wearing Kenya?
35:47You look stunning in this.
35:50Whoa.
35:50What is that fabric?
35:51This is the fabric sack, or did she...
35:54No, she sewed this.
35:54She pleaded this entire thing.
35:56She did all that.
35:57She certainly did.
35:57It really is amazing.
35:58Isn't that incredible?
35:59Yeah.
36:01Christina is wearing Ayana.
36:03Holy moly.
36:05Wow.
36:05I mean, Dave really did a fantastic job this week.
36:08Very ambitious.
36:09It's amazing.
36:10So she did the pants, and then she did the skirt.
36:14It's really incredible.
36:15Spectacular work.
36:18Misha is wearing Brandon.
36:20I mean, we have too many good options today for winning one.
36:24Really exciting.
36:25Because this also is amazing.
36:27And what's the little bow on the side?
36:29Cute.
36:30It's really beautiful.
36:31Yeah.
36:34So Anita is wearing margarita.
36:36Yeah, that I'm not loving so much.
36:38Is this really so horrible?
36:39See?
36:39She just feels very stuffed in here.
36:42I thought it was nice in the front.
36:44It moved beautifully.
36:46I want to have you hike it up.
36:48But if you hike it up, then it's going to let the skirt out, so...
36:51I like her concept of this controlled chaos.
36:54But unfortunately, you know, when you see a runway show, you don't always hear the designers.
36:58Yeah.
36:59No, the work has to speak.
37:01I like it.
37:04And we have Jasmine wearing contoro.
37:07And this is also a little bit sad.
37:10This is...
37:11I can't...
37:12It's sad.
37:13I mean, I love your face.
37:15It is a fit.
37:15You look gorgeous.
37:16But we've got to look at the clothing.
37:17No, but also this lip color is really cool.
37:20I love that.
37:20I want that.
37:21But the clothes are...
37:23Lackluster.
37:24Dull.
37:26There were two designers that were clearly on the bottom.
37:29It is so hard.
37:31Oh, God.
37:32Yeah.
37:34Okay, so we made our decision.
37:37Yep.
37:38Let's bring them back out.
37:42Designers, one of you will be named the winner.
37:46And one of you will be out.
37:51Kenya, great job.
37:52You're in.
37:53You can leave the runway.
37:59Brandon, congratulations.
38:01You are the winner of this challenge.
38:07I feel beautiful.
38:08I'm grateful I'm here to show you guys what I can do and be here again.
38:12So, thank you very much.
38:14We're excited to see more.

38:20Too long.

38:27You can leave the runway.
38:29Great job.
