[Suspenseful music]

♪ ♪

Hi, guys.

Hi.

[Applause]

Hello.

Hi.

Hi, everybody.

All: hi.

I'm very excited to talk to

You about my new fragrance,

Surprise.

Surprise is a
very feminine and

Sensual scent, with notes like

Pink pepper, mandarin, and

Jasmine.

I'm gonna do a really big ad

Campaign for the launch.

So where all of you come in

Is, heidi needs something to

Wear.

Yes!

Whoo!

[Applause]

I need something to wear in

My television
commercial and for

The p.r. Event
for the launch of

The perfume.

One celebrity wearing your

Garment can make your whole

Career.

And this is just, like,

Handing it to you.

So you're designing for

Heidi, and she's going to wear

The winning looks.

They're gonna be seen all

Over the world.

So this is an incredible and

Really thrilling
opportunity for

Each of you.

And there's one more thing.

I'm a little picky.

[Laughter]

So each team will make four

Options for my tv and print ad

And two options for my

P.r. Event.

So there will
be two winning

Looks--one for heidi's ad

Campaign and the other for

Heidi's press events.

And, heidi, do you have any

Special directives for the

Designers?

Oh.

I do.

It's all in heidi's box.

It has basically all my

Inspirations in here.

How exciting.

So, first, I
want to show you

My surprise packaging.

So it's pink, but it has the

Hard lines of, like, gold and

Black.

So it's very feminine, but at

The same time,
it's quite hard.

I like it sexy,
but I don't like

It slutty either.

No.

I can totally sex it up.

I can take my volume to 11.

I think you
guys should stay

Within the colors of the

Perfume.

Yes. It's very clear.

We have pink.

We have black.

We have gold.

So what is very important

Is when you look at the

Storyboard, you
see a close-up.

You see my back,
so really think

About also that
the dress looks

Really great all
the way around.

And then I just
signed a little

Book of mine for all of you

Guys.

Basically, this
is the book that

Rankin did--one of my favorite

Photographers--and he will be

sh**ting the tv commercial and

Also the ads.

Wow.

Now, each team will have 30

Minutes to do the following--

To consult, to sketch.

Then we are going shopping at

Mood, where each
team will have

A budget of $1,200.

You have one day for this

Challenge.

[Whistles]

So you'll be presenting to

Heidi tomorrow, all right?

Yes.

Have fun, and surprise me.

Yes.

Bye, everybody.

[Laughs]

Let's go sketch.

Okay, okay.

I'm just voicing that my

Preference is to
do the campaign

Piece.

Okay.

I'm fine with that.

Matt and I are working on

Outfits to be worn for press

Events, where the rest of the

Team are working on dresses to

Be worn for the campaign ad.

We have to have four press

Pieces and two gowns.

Yeah.

I can do press.

Patricia is working on a

Press look, and so are joe and

I, and everybody
else is working

On the commercial look.

This week's challenge is as

A team, we're
designing several

Options for heidi's
new perfume,

Surprise, and we
have to come up

With a look for a press event

And a look for
a commercial for

Her campaign.

I'm thinking this fabric

Instead of this one.

Anybody have a preference?

That's, like, madonna,

Material girl.

Yeah. Not a good reference.

Ooh, okay.

I trust benjamin.

He obviously knows more about

Wovens than I
do, and I'm happy

With that choice.

Perfect.

The danger of
creating my own

Textile is
finishing it exactly

The way I want to finish it.

I start cutting all my squares

Of the soft pink.

I am worried that I might have

Bitten off more than I can

Handle as far as time-wise.

Oh, no.

Hi, tim.

Hi, I'm here to check in

With you, all right?

Yes.

All right.

So, ben, is this
challenge in or

Out of your comfort zone?

This is in my comfort zone.

Good. Okay.

Yes.

The top here will be in the

Pink suede, and
then all of the

Straps will start
the seam here.

If you're using the gold,

I would want it
to look the way

It looks in the drawing, which

Is as though it's one long

Piece...

It will be.

That you've brought around

The body.

I think I'm
gonna open this.

Think about this shape, how

The rose petal
inspired you, if

You open the neckline.

The center back is such a

Sexy area, and so I want to

Highlight that.

Yes. Yes.

Okay.

I wanted to
do something me,

And all I heard was the word

"Bondage," so I'm doing a

Leather--

[Laughter]

I'm gonna do, like, um, a

Leather placket,
very narrow, to

Be modern, and a
leather collar.

It's strapless
with a kind of

Faux collar?

What's developing here?

Well, I'm
trying to do a very

Slim-fit sheath dress--

Lots of sex appeal.

And then little capped sleeves

Out of leather.

I think she's
too covered up.

Uh-huh, yeah.

The whole look
needs to be in

This textile.

Yeah, I agree.

Okay.

The whole look.

Using two
different colors of

Leather--gold on
the bottom and

Then an overlay
of black--and it

Goes all the way through the

Front yoke, down the back.

I'm actually quite crazy

About it--excellent.

Yay!

I will see you later.

Thanks, tim.

Thank you all.

Have you identified four looks

As being for the
ad campaign and

Two for press events?

Mm-hmm, yeah.

So, joe and
amanda, what are

You doing?

Press event?

Press event.

This is gonna be cut out of

The black fabric...

Uh-huh.

And then sandwiched in

Between sheer chiffon.

We get it, and
we support it.

In 100 words or less, tell us

What you're doing.

[Laughter]

Okay, real quick...

[Laughter continues]

I created this material.

What is it?

It's cut
leather, and it's my

Own creation of leather mesh.

I'm gonna sew it
from corner to

Corner.

[Imitates sewing machine]

Good grief.

Yeah.

It's incredibly ambitious.

So this is how much I have

Left of the pink to do.

It will just be from here to

Here, and then
the rest will be

This gold.

I think you've got to do

That.

I decided to cut it in

Different panels.

Mm-hmm.

And I'm gonna hand-sew it.

I think if
you put too much,

It's gonna look like

Dancing with the stars, you

Watch it.

No, I'm kidding.

I just decided
to go all out

And just find the shiniest

Fabric I could find.

Heidi loves the bling.

I didn't just want to do a

Jersey dress and just have one

Piece.

It has structure in it.

Mm-hmm.

And then on top, it's going

To be ruched.

I wanted to do a
low back but do

It tastefully,
not just all the

Way down.

Ever consider just turning

It into a halter?

Okay, let's do it.

So, kate and
layana, what are

You up to?

What we're
doing is a really

Structured corset, and we're

Doing the straight front--the

Flat-front corset
instead of the

Curved, so she gets, like, a

Real lift, just
to give her that

Really nice
cleavage that heidi

Really loves.

And we're doing it in a color

That is basically heidi's

Natural lip color, so we know

That it's gonna complement her

Skin tone.

The only thing is that I'm

Scared now.

All: why?

Because this color is not

Good.

I honestly don't think that

You're gonna see it much.

Guys, do you really think

This is nice?

Come on, just the pink?

I like the organza on top.

You think so?

No, seriously.

I know you're having a bad

Response to the color of the

Pink.

It really is
close to the color

That heidi has on the bottle.

Kate and layana are kind of

Struggling at this point.

They're just not connecting.

Coming up on

Project runway...

This is so much harder than it
looks on tv.

This could
actually break my

Design.

"F" this.

Now tomorrow's gonna be hell.

Alright design teams.

I'm going to leave you.

You have until 11:00 tonight.

You'll have a fitting a little

Later.

Okay?

Use your teams.

It takes a village to

Raise a child.

It takes a village.

Yes.

It takes a
village to make a

Dress.

Oh, my god.

The challenging part of this

Design is that I forgot to get

The other piece of fabric in

Another color that I wanted to

Do.

Fabric, this could--this could

Actually break my design.

I turn and look at patricia's

Table.

There is a piece
of leather that

She bought.

Voila!

This is what I need for my
dress to make the hard edge.

I said, "patricia,
may I please

Use it?"

And she said, "go ahead."

You know, of
course I gave her a

Hug and a kiss.

All right.

Needs to have.

Yeah, a little hard,

Little edge.

go a little '90s

Referential and
kind of bring in

A fetishistic vibe 'cause

I heard the word
"bondage" when

You spoke about your bottle.

Yeah, I don't see how this

Relates.

I get the bondage quality from

The references.

You know, I don't even think

That your fabric choices were

That off here, but then sort

Of the result of the strap up

At the top, you
know, instead of

Feeling sexy, it really looks

Trashy.

What I was saying to the

Designers was,
"find a way that

You can give me
hard and soft."

Mm-hmm.

But this is like, "where is

My whip?"

Heidi, I think the surprise

Is that you're going to be a

Dominatrix.

Yes.

Surprise.

You know, I
can't go to a red

Carpet in this outfit, because

I would look, like, borderline

Bunny or too sexual.

You would also not do that.

Oh, I would die if someone

Asked me to wear that.

No offense.

I would just be like, "aah."

Yeah.

Right?

Yeah.

But also, you're dressed so

Creatively as a person, it's

Kind of interesting that that

Didn't translate.

Normally, it
translates, but

I felt lost from the start.

It's not that difficult to

Dress heidi.

Yeah.

She's a model.

So what was so
hard about this?

I think I got intimidated,

Um, because it is the heidi

Challenge.

You can't let
that intimidate

You.

I know, I know.

Ask zac.

You have to just, you know,

Dream.

Dream and--

Yeah.

I--

Okay, thank you, matt.

Cindy, tell us
about your look.

Well, your fragrance was so

Fresh and beautiful,
and I loved

The colors that you had in the

Palette, and, uh, this color

Just seemed elegant.

And listening to
you at the last

Runway, I realized
I might need

To sex it up a
bit, which I did

Here.

Just because there's a slit

Here down the front and shows

Some bareness does not make it

Sexy.

It needs to kind
of hug her body

In a nice, sensual
kind of way.

What made you choose a

Shantung?

Heidi is such
a beautiful and

Elegant woman, I
felt I needed a

Classier fabric than what

I normally use.

Shantung is one of the

Hardest fabrics to photograph

Because you see every little

Dimple, wrinkle, and crinkle.

It almost has,
like, a little

Bit of that iridescent--

Aurora borealis.

That's the problem.

That iridescence makes it look

Cheap.

It's scary.

No one said,
"stay away from

The shiny, iridescent fabric"?

Well, she bought three

Fabrics, and we thought this

One, out of the
colors she had,

Actually looked
the best, so...

I often wear
structured, you

Know, dresses.

Certainly, uh, charlotte on

Sex and the city did.

Type fabric, but maybe, like,



But I can relate to the

Beautiful neckline, and, you

Know, I've worn dresses very

Similar in my alter ego.

I see what you
were dreaming of

There.

Thank you.

Benjamin, tell
us about your

Look.

With the juice of the

Perfume being
pink, I wanted to

Try and emulate that with the

Fabric choice, so I went for

Shades of pink and also with

Chiffon to emulate the

Lightness of the spritz when

It's in the air.

Kristin, what did you think

Of this look?

I love the color.

I thought it would be really

Flattering on heidi.

But the breast part is just so

Upsetting that
it's just hard to

Even look at 'cause I just

Feel--feel some pain here.

The mushy bust.

You have "mushy boobs"?

I have "sad, droopy boobs," is

What I wrote.

Is there boning?

What--what--what is happening?

There's--there
is boning all

Around, and there's multiple--

Like, there's so many panels.

I mean, you can't tell.

I wish you
could see the fit

Of it, 'cause it was really--

What are your
strengths as a

Designer?

Usually, my strengths are

Construction.

Okay.

Benjamin, this is probably

The worst construction I've

Seen.

She looks like she's rolled

Around in the
ground and rolled

Into some leather pieces.

She looks like she's been

Shipwrecked.

Mayday, mayday.

We have a problem.

Have you used this fabric

Before?

I have used this fabric

Before.

This has been a
time-management

Problem for me on this

Challenge, and I can't say

Anything more to
you other than

That.

I'm gonna give you some

Advice.

You have to slow down on the

Excuses.

You have to own
what you do and

Make it work, and
if it doesn't,

You just acknowledge that, but

You can't go through the

Minutiae and excuses.

like your looks at

All, and you can thank your

Teammates for saving you

Tonight.

The sequin dress, for me,

When she turned and there was

A surprise of, like, a ruffle

Fart, I don't
know what to say.

I was sort of speechless.

The same with stanley--

Too glitzy.

And then the amount of

Necklaces that she had on.

It's too busy.

It's too much.

Okay.

But you guys
are the winning

Team, so let's talk about the

Three winning looks.

Patricia, kate, layana, and

Daniel, you have the highest

Scores on your team.

Let's bring out your models.

♪ ♪

Patricia, tell us about your

Look.

I wanted to
create my leather

Mesh, which is something that

I've created in my own studio.

So this is all little leather

Cutouts that I did myself.

Because it's
leather, that's the

Edgy and hardness to it, but

I wanted the
leather to be very

Flowing and soft.

I really like this look.

I think this
would be something

Really interesting
for heidi to

Wear on the red carpet.

And I really enjoy that you

Are taking and making a

Signature out of your fabric

Manipulation and technique.

Your pieces do look like

Something that we haven't seen

Before, and there's a surprise

In this.

I love the artistry, and

I was very impressed, 'cause,

Obviously, you
don't see things

Like that.

My only concern was, well,

Just 'cause heidi
does have this

Gorgeous body, is it the most

Flattering?

And in terms of the shape

That you have going, you know,

I see it more
appropriate for a

Younger actress.

Heidi's mad, heidi's mad.

Sorry.

Uh, but I know what you're

Saying, zac.

I kind of like that it is

Boxy.

You do?

Yeah.

I think if you go for that,

You just go, like, straight

Down.

And I think that everybody

Expects heidi to
wear something

That is so close-fitting.

Right, right, true.

It's a nice
departure to see

Something else.

That's true.

Team, what did you guys think

When you saw
patricia work away

With her leather?

At first, we were kind of

Like, "we're kind of worried."

But then she goes, "trust me,

I know what I'm doing."

And just the way that she

Thought about it--

She took tissue paper from the

Surprise box and cut out her

Pattern and laid
it out so that

It would fit
exactly the way it

Should on the
body, and then she

Sewed it.

I've never seen technique like

That.

Resourceful.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, thank you.

Kate and layana, tell us about

Your look.

So I really wanted to

Highlight your
hourglass figure

And just enhance
your bust with

My corsetry and finally get to

Show you guys me.

Who did what exactly?

The dress, it's completely



A collaboration.

Well, let me tell you what

I love about this dress.

I can totally
feel the softness,

But yet hard and,
you know, all

That technique that you worked

So hard on, but you kind of

Covered it, but
you didn't cover

It enough, so we can still see

It and appreciate it.

That's what makes it so

Luxurious-looking, in a way.

It looks great all the way

Around.

We thought of every angle.

Yeah.

Here, the back.

I like the drape on top.

I like that there's
a dimension,

There's shadow.

The lower area probably maybe

Could use one more layer of a

Black chiffon just to tone it

Down, 'cause I
don't know if you

Want that as highlighted.

But I think it works.

It had beautiful movement

When it walked
down the runway,

And I think it will move very

Beautifully in the sh**t as

Well.

We have to address color.

How did you arrive at black?

Uh, immediately
I thought of

Black, but the
pink is her idea.

I love the pink underneath,

But obviously,
I'm a pink girl,

And there's something kind of

Ballet a little bit about it,

Which I love.

I just think it's
just gorgeous.

Thank you.

So who should win if this

Is the winning look?

Well, I'm
winning either way.

Yeah, either way, we win.

If you pick this look, my mom,

My fiance, my dad, my brides,

Like, they'll be
so proud of me.

[Crying and sniffling]

Thank you, girls.

Daniel, tell us
about your look.

When I saw the storyboard,

You reminded me
of a bond girl.

So I kind of went that

Direction for your dress.

I like being a bond girl.

And, um, I followed the

Curves of the bottle, the way

The top of the
bottle is, like,

Round, and then I had--during

The day, I was gonna drape all

Of this, and it was gonna be

Just all one color, but then

Towards the end,
after critique,

I saw the gold leather that

Patricia wasn't using, so she

Let me have that
to create this.

So you actually
never bought

This black leather?

No.

That's very nice of you.

That was very nice of her.

We also used his leather.

No, no, what
I had left, they

Used, yeah, so
everybody helped

Each other.

This also is a very

Good-looking dress.

Thank you.

The lines of this dress are

Simple but yet
very interesting

And sophisticated.

I think it's beautiful.

Thank you so much.

When you say,
"I followed the

Line of the bottle," you also

Followed the line of her body,

And that's
something that is so

Important if
you're going to do

Something kind
of structural and

Basic, that it
be flattering and

Make you feel powerful as a

Woman when you're wearing it,

And I feel like that's what it

Does.

Beautiful construction,

Beautiful shape.

It's not my favorite material

For an evening dress.

It makes it look inexpensive,

And in another fabric, I think

It would take another life.

I'm very impressed with how

You treated the leather.

It seems to have beautiful

Contour to it.

Uh, the color, for me, for an

Advertisement, the nude-flesh

Color, it's not
the first thing

That you want
to, like, look to

The screen at when it's on tv.

But I think it's really good.

Well done.

Thank you, zac.

Okay, you can leave the

Runway.

Thank you.

All: thank you.

[Dramatic music]

♪ ♪

Okay, let's talk about the

Designers that
we did like from

The winning team--

Team keeping it real.

We have patricia.

She came up with something

Really unusual, surprising.

I like that it had an

Abstraction to it.

It feels cool.

It feels fresh.

Then when she turned and there

Was just the two bands of the

Gold leather in
the back, it did

Have, like, a nostalgic

Reflection to
it, and I thought

That that was really strong,

Simple, and effective.

I mean, it
made her back look

Really sexy.

It's not such an obvious

Sexiness.

Yes.

I think, also, for press

Photos, you always look for

Something that would kind of

Make some news,
and I feel like

That would.

Let's talk about layana and

Kate's dress.

That is a stunning dress.

I agree.

Great for this fragrance ad

Campaign.

I think it would
look stunning.

It has movement.

It's going to photograph

Beautifully.

And I think
it has a classic

Quality to it that goes really

Well with your bottle.

I thought it
was really well

ex*cuted.

I did have some concerns about

The, uh, corsetry in the back.

To me, that was
one element too

Many.

I quite liked it that they

Thought of it all the way

Around, you know?

It looked good on really any

Angle.

Mm-hmm.

And I also have to say,

Daniel did a great job.

He thought of a real great

Silhouette that
made it hard and

Soft at the same time and sexy

But sporty.

There's something very

Elegant and very
easy about this

Dress.

Yes.

Daniel knows what's in

Fashion.

He knows how to cut clothing.

That being said, I don't think

It's the most original piece

I've ever seen.

But it's beautifully

ex*cuted, and there's a lot of

People who can't drape that

Leather or do
whatever he did to

Make that leather look so--

That was incredible.

Yeah.

That was very well done.

All right, let's talk about

Dream team.

Hmm.

Let's talk about matt.

He went overboard with the

Sexual theme.

I mean, he sees
you--okay, many

People see you as a sexual

Goddess, but he
really went all

Out.

Also, what I don't

Understand--if
he does make this

Very simple silhouette, why

Didn't it fit perfectly in the

Chest?

She had to, like, move like a

Robot so that the whole thing

Didn't collapse on top.

Mm-hmm.

Let's talk about cindy.

Pink taffeta.

Ooh!

Iridescent.

Iridescent--

Iridescent,
that's the thing.

Shantung.

You know, shantung
is so bad, it

Could be good, but, like, by a

Master.

This is a perverse fabric to

Use, and I don't think it's

Actually coming from her with

Any perversion.

Mm-hmm.

But I also
have to tell you,

What benjamin did was also a

Train wreck.

I mean, that was messy.

Benjamin's was
a horror show.

Talk about bad construction.

And I think that the straps

Are just wrapped around.

What did he do?

Because, look, if you look at

It, what is it
that he spent so

Much time on that
we can't see?

There was no structure

Under there, I
mean, that I saw.

So why is he
saying there is?

I think he's doing whatever

He can to stay in the game.

Okay, so we've made our

Decision.
