00:00:00I'm so excited for you guys to meet your guest judge for this challenge.
00:00:28Amazing actress, star of one of the most legendary television shows ever, Beverly Hills, 90210,
00:00:35hella icon of the 90s, the always stunning Jenny Garth.
00:00:43Jenny Garth, freaking Kelly.
00:00:46I watched 90210 in Brazil.
00:00:48The mouths would move in English, but the sounds would come out in Portuguese.
00:00:52If you only knew the impact this show had on my generation,
00:00:56you would know how excited I am right now.
00:00:59I may still have a poster of Brandon Walsh on my wall.
00:01:02Me too.
00:01:03Yeah.
00:01:04I am so excited to be here with you guys today.
00:01:07I have been a fan from the OG PR, and I cannot wait to see what happens today.
00:01:15All right, designers, for your challenge, we are bringing back the 90s.
00:01:19Yes.
00:01:20And you'll be working in teams.
00:01:23Yeah.
00:01:25I don't think they're very happy about that.
00:01:27No, no, no.
00:01:28Team challenges, that's where the craziness starts.
00:01:31Ooh, oh Lord, here we go.
00:01:3590s fashion is on trend.
00:01:38The runways are flooded with fly 90s style.
00:01:42Dior revamped the plaid schoolgirl look.
00:01:45Paramas with puffer bomber jackets.
00:01:47Tom Ford having a moment.
00:01:50We are not looking for costumes.
00:01:52We want 90s fashion that's inventive and creative.
00:01:56Wearing the clothes in the 90s was, like, totally rad.
00:02:02All right, in two teams of five, you must create a chic, cohesive,
00:02:0790s-inspired mini collection.
00:02:09And of course, it has to be a little difficult.
00:02:11No denim.
00:02:12That's fair.
00:02:13Everyone is going to grab and open up a cassette case.
00:02:17Everybody pick.
00:02:18Oh, that's how we're doing it?
00:02:19That's how we're doing it.
00:02:20If you get a red tape, you're on the red team.
00:02:21If you get a blue tape, you're on the blue team.
00:02:24And the insert will have your model card.
00:02:28This is a two-day challenge.
00:02:31And in honor of our fabulous guest judge,
00:02:34your model's runway will be the locker-lined hallways
00:02:38at one of the city's very first public high schools.
00:02:41Amazing.
00:02:42Wow, amazing.
00:02:43All right, designers, you're going to have 40 minutes now
00:02:45to meet with your teams, brainstorm, sketch,
00:02:47and then I'll meet you at mood when you're done.
00:02:49Bye, guys.
00:02:50We gotta bounce.
00:02:52Let's do it.
00:02:54It's the 90s.
00:03:0190s.
00:03:07Three of the baddest bitches are in the same team
00:03:10for a streetwear challenge.
00:03:12Be very afraid.
00:03:13Who are the bad bitches in streetwear?
00:03:15Laurence, Bishme, and Prajay.
00:03:19It's the word around the block.
00:03:21Something that I feel that can work with everybody
00:03:23is the grunge look.
00:03:25We're going to be at a school.
00:03:26We can use the plaids.
00:03:28We can mix plaids, at least.
00:03:30It's a motto, honey.
00:03:31It is a motto.
00:03:32Smells like teen school.
00:03:34In my head, immediately, I thought about Lil' Ken.
00:03:37You rubbin' with the B, huh, huh.
00:03:40Hip-hop, R&B was on fire in the 90s.
00:03:43Like, all the music artists really did,
00:03:46they were the fashion designers.
00:03:47I think music is a great theme to pick
00:03:49and to play off of that.
00:03:51My inspiration is a little bit TLC meets MC Hammer.
00:03:55So I am going to do some high-waisted pants
00:03:57and then a bomber jacket.
00:03:59Everything was so big and colorful and oversized.
00:04:03That's kind of where I'm channeling
00:04:04most of my 90s effort.
00:04:06I think if we have a guideline
00:04:08of like a certain color store,
00:04:09I think that would help each person
00:04:11kind of like stick within a certain guideline.
00:04:13I feel the same way.
00:04:14So what are you thinking of doing?
00:04:16I'm just thinking,
00:04:16I'll probably go with the off-the-shoulder.
00:04:18You know, the skirt with cargo pocket.
00:04:21So colorful.
00:04:22Colorful, I'm feeling colorful.
00:04:24I was born in 1991.
00:04:27So majority of my 90s references
00:04:29came from my sister.
00:04:32I learned everything I know from her.
00:04:34My inspiration is a backup dancer
00:04:38for all the 90s hip-hop videos.
00:04:41And I want to make a jacket
00:04:43that showcases her coolness
00:04:46and pairing it with a skirt.
00:04:47So we got a little bit of everything.
00:04:48Let's just keep it popping.
00:04:50Got you, I agree.
00:04:51So in my season,
00:04:52we did two teams of five as well.
00:04:54And the other team used all the same fabrics
00:04:56and they did all different looks.
00:04:57They hated that.
00:04:59It is all over the damn place.
00:05:01It's in every decade, every country,
00:05:03every area code.
00:05:04It's got bits of everything in it.
00:05:05Can we talk about the other fabrics too?
00:05:07Because I would love to use
00:05:08like a black chiffon or sheer.
00:05:09I would like to use the black lace.
00:05:10I figured you would too.
00:05:12I didn't love the 90s,
00:05:14but I'm going to try my best.
00:05:16My inspiration for my look this time
00:05:18was definitely Gwen Stefani, Nirvana.
00:05:20And I want to make a beautiful corset,
00:05:23a fabulous flowing pilo shirt,
00:05:25and a gorgeous little plaid skirt.
00:05:28If you're talking cohesive,
00:05:29you can still have a two to three color way.
00:05:32Make sure everybody has the plaid.
00:05:35Our idea came together very quick,
00:05:38easily, which is good.
00:05:40But I never work with plaid.
00:05:42So I'm just a little bit nervous
00:05:44about the fabrication.
00:05:45Or even if we use the plaid as a trim.
00:05:49The plaid will go into my accessory
00:05:50because I want to make a backpack.
00:05:54I love it.
00:05:55All right, let's go.
00:05:56All right.
00:05:57Let's go.
00:05:57Let's go to Mood.
00:05:58Let's go, all right.
00:05:59Boom.
00:06:07Hello, everybody.
00:06:09Hi.
00:06:10Welcome back to Mood.
00:06:13So each of you have $500
00:06:15and 40 minutes to shop.
00:06:17That's it, bye.
00:06:18Go.
00:06:24What are you going to make?
00:06:26I'm making a pants with the corsets.
00:06:28In the 90s, I remember flare jeans
00:06:31was really a thing.
00:06:32But in China,
00:06:34I wasn't allowed to have fashionable items.
00:06:37It was very strict
00:06:38and fashion wasn't really a thing
00:06:41in China at that moment.
00:06:42I was the one,
00:06:44always want to wear something different.
00:06:46So this is what I wanted in my 90s for myself.
00:06:50You like it?
00:06:51We'll see.
00:06:54You got faux leather?
00:06:55Yeah, I already got that cut.
00:06:57You love that?
00:06:57Mm-hmm.
00:06:58Okay.
00:06:58Yeah.
00:06:58It's a good faux leather?
00:06:59It looks the best.
00:07:01The best.
00:07:02I'm doing this like...
00:07:03That lace up whole thing with grommets and stuff?
00:07:04Uh-huh.
00:07:05I am making a plaid,
00:07:07billowy-sleeved flannel shirt
00:07:09with a corseted jumpsuit
00:07:11made of faux leather
00:07:12and lace-up princess seams.
00:07:15I need that dark element
00:07:16because essentially it's 90s grunge.
00:07:20Designers, you have 10 minutes.
00:07:22Blue team, can we get a quick meeting, please?
00:07:24So we can start cutting.
00:07:25Me and Bitch Me both have this.
00:07:27Laurence is pulling green leather.
00:07:29I feel like we need to narrow it down.
00:07:31Can we use one similar fabric together?
00:07:34Our color palette for our collection,
00:07:35the oranges, the greens,
00:07:37they're so important
00:07:38because the name of the game is cohesion.
00:07:40Cohesion, cohesion, cohesion.
00:07:42I remember in the 90s,
00:07:44the coolest kids always had the bomb-ass puffer jackets
00:07:48and I always wanted one.
00:07:49So I'm gonna make a high-low one
00:07:51just really extra for no damn reason.
00:07:53That's the way I'm going.
00:07:54And three of this, wrote it on the sticker.
00:07:56Designers?
00:07:56Yes.
00:07:57One minute.
00:07:58Oh my God.
00:07:59So I guess we just get all of this.
00:08:00Yes, we're taking all the laces, right?
00:08:03I mean, probably.
00:08:04Excuse me.
00:08:06If you're not in line, you don't get it.
00:08:09Thank you so much.
00:08:11Brittany, where's your whole team?
00:08:12I don't know.
00:08:14I'll take it three yards.
00:08:15Let's just go.
00:08:17Hold on, where's the elastic that was cut?
00:08:19Here, here, here, here.
00:08:20All right, designers, that's it.
00:08:21That's time.
00:08:22Laurence, it's me.
00:08:24Coming up.
00:08:25I don't know what they're cooking up.
00:08:27It's all different restaurants right now.
00:08:29You don't have any of it done?
00:08:31I'm coming, I promise.
00:08:32Let me do this.
00:08:33I'm coming, I promise.
00:08:35Let me just sit here and wait for you.
00:08:43All right, guys.
00:08:44All right.
00:08:45All right, let's do it.
00:08:47Totally tubular.
00:08:48Here we go.
00:08:49Yep.
00:08:51So guys, should we take everything out and just see what we have?
00:08:54Yeah, let's look at it.
00:08:55All right.
00:08:55This is yours that I bought you.
00:08:58Some of your sugar, mama.
00:08:59This red is perfect.
00:09:00Thank you, Fabio.
00:09:01So we have the yellow.
00:09:02I just want to make sure that everything ties in.
00:09:06It looks really good together.
00:09:07I'm excited, you guys.
00:09:09The red team, I see a lot of plaid.
00:09:11It looks, I don't know.
00:09:13It looks plaidy.
00:09:14It's very plaidy addy addy.
00:09:16It all fits in with the vibe of what we're doing.
00:09:21I went to boarding school.
00:09:22I had to wear a uniform that was plaid.
00:09:23So there's no way I would have even went anywhere near that fabric.
00:09:27So glad I was not on the red team because they would have had a problem with me.
00:09:31Do you guys feel that the styles are all like cohesive with each other?
00:09:35Oh, the colors are.
00:09:35Everything is looking.
00:09:35I think the colors are a theme.
00:09:37I just think we all need to be present in the looking.
00:09:39Checking in.
00:09:40Yeah.
00:09:40Yeah.
00:09:41All right.
00:09:42So let's get started.
00:09:45Let's do it.
00:09:47Good choice on this plaid.
00:09:50The person I'm designing for is someone who's young and very fashion forward.
00:09:56I'm excited about the coat.
00:09:58Me too.
00:09:59Smells like team spirit.
00:10:00Smells like team spirit.
00:10:03In my world of costume design, I probably have hit every decade.
00:10:08When they said 90s, I knew what those looks would be.
00:10:12Those bomber jackets have a little bit of poof.
00:10:14This one's going to have a much bigger poof.
00:10:16I'm going to make a bomber jacket and a culture dress with the handkerchief skirt.
00:10:21But it has to be sleek and it has to be fashion.
00:10:25You don't want something that looks like a 90s party.
00:10:28Fabio, I'm going to do a high neck, then a hood behind it.
00:10:31Maybe I should do like a backpack with a hood.
00:10:33One thing that I really love about the 90s is the over layering.
00:10:37So I am making a wrap skirt, half pleated, half draped, a mesh top, and a backpack vest in plaid.
00:10:44I'm designing for Angelina Jolie in Hackers,
00:10:47which speaks of grunge, but also the high school spirit.
00:10:51I mean, it's a collection.
00:10:52A chic.
00:10:53A chic.
00:10:54Cohesive.
00:10:55A chic and cohesive.
00:10:56Chic and cohesive collection.
00:10:5890s inspired collection.
00:11:00Look.
00:11:02I like those pants.
00:11:03I got cool clothes.
00:11:04Me too.
00:11:06All right, you over here, you're too short.
00:11:09I'm making a green leather overall and a cone bra.
00:11:14You know, Jean Paul Gaultier, Madonna type of vibe.
00:11:17That's how I used to dress in the 90s.
00:11:19But I didn't have a leather overall because I couldn't afford it.
00:11:22But now, me and leather, we know each other.
00:11:24I don't think Portia runway is the place where you want to experiment
00:11:27other little things that you don't know anything about.
00:11:32Brittany, do you ever use leather leather?
00:11:34I actually don't use it hardly ever.
00:11:36I'm making this jumpsuit out of pleather because it's much more cost effective.
00:11:40This is too high though.
00:11:41So I think I'm going to take this a little lower.
00:11:43Hopefully, I can make this leather look really good in the end.
00:11:46God, what a mess.
00:11:54Roger, you need ribbing?
00:11:55Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:56That can be nice as well.
00:11:57It's great to see Lauren's checking in.
00:11:59She's a natural born leader.
00:12:01Like, she has my back.
00:12:02She has everybody's back.
00:12:03I'm going to try to play with the orange, the tweed.
00:12:06She doesn't want nobody to fall under the radar and then bring the team down.
00:12:09Let's see what you're doing.
00:12:10Wide leg pants.
00:12:12And I'm going to do cargo pockets.
00:12:14Oh, that's cool.
00:12:15I got cargo pockets on my green.
00:12:17Good, because Roger is as well.
00:12:19The inspiration for my design is Aaliyah's iconic looks.
00:12:24Wide leg, exaggerated pocket cargo pants with a leather halter top and oversized con shirt.
00:12:32See you in a minute.
00:12:33All right, love.
00:12:33All right, guys.
00:12:34We have 45 minutes left.
00:12:36Stress level just skyrocketed.
00:12:39Hey, yes.
00:12:42Teamwork makes the dream work.
00:12:45I want to put this together tonight so I can work on the dress tomorrow.
00:12:48I'm thinking about changing it up just a little bit.
00:12:50Maybe this goes into a flowier top in the back.
00:12:54That way, all this is exposed.
00:12:57That's good.
00:12:57You guys, we got 10 minutes.
00:13:00I'm pretty fast, but we're about to find out how fast.
00:13:06Girl, where you been?
00:13:07I've been on the block for five hours.
00:13:09Are you serious?
00:13:11OK, I gotta get to work.
00:13:12Y'all gonna get me fired.
00:13:13And my minutes are up.
00:13:18It's the end of day one.
00:13:19I'm feeling the pressure.
00:13:21There's a lot of work to do, and I'm just moving as fast as I can.
00:13:25My anxiety is so high.
00:13:27It's a lot to get done.
00:13:29And seeing the blue team, we are really neck and neck at this point.
00:13:34All right, guys.
00:13:35Time's up.
00:13:36We gotta go home.
00:13:37Yeah.
00:13:37Let's get out of here.
00:13:38Do it tomorrow.
00:13:42Coming up.
00:13:42This faux vinyl, I don't know.
00:13:44I'm running out of time.
00:13:45So I have to hot glue this shit down.
00:13:46I am praying that the seams stay glued down.
00:14:07We only have 11 hours left.
00:14:09And I need 15.
00:14:10So I gotta teach the models a whole dance routine.
00:14:14It should be a whole vibe on stage.
00:14:16Oh, my God.
00:14:23All right, guys.
00:14:25Workroom.
00:14:25Finish our stuff.
00:14:27All right.
00:14:27Team spirit.
00:14:28Team spirit.
00:14:30Come on, blue team.
00:14:32Come on, team spirit.
00:14:33Let's go.
00:14:34Yeah.
00:14:35How hard is the block?
00:14:37All right, let's go.
00:14:38It's the 90s.
00:14:39Girl power.
00:14:41Are we all feeling good?
00:14:43I feel great with the direction we're going.
00:14:45Personally.
00:14:46Okay.
00:14:47Agreed.
00:14:48Awesome.
00:14:48Just wanted to hear your voice, Carisol.
00:14:51Hi, everybody.
00:14:52How's it going?
00:14:54You're team red today.
00:14:55Yeah, guys.
00:14:57I didn't even think about it.
00:15:01Teams, 90s.
00:15:02I'm totally bugging.
00:15:06All right, I'm coming around.
00:15:07I want to see it all.
00:15:08Roger.
00:15:09Hi, Christian.
00:15:10Tell me everything.
00:15:11So pretty much you and I were going with hip hop and R&B.
00:15:14Yeah.
00:15:14That was the 90s.
00:15:15Yeah.
00:15:15In the 90s, you were basically like the same person, right?
00:15:18Well, I was a kid.
00:15:19What did you listen to?
00:15:21I was in Haiti.
00:15:22Right, so like-
00:15:23So it was all the hardcore rapping.
00:15:25So cool.
00:15:26You might get shot because the block is hot.
00:15:28All right.
00:15:28So, you know, I wanted to do kind of like a bomber jacket, puffer mixture.
00:15:33That's why some of the solids here.
00:15:35That's the band.
00:15:37What's wrong with the band?
00:15:37They just look a little bit like pajamas.
00:15:39I mean, they're supposed to be sweatpants.
00:15:41But like, is that the coolest sweatpants you've ever seen?
00:15:43But I think when everything is lined-
00:15:45Yeah, I can't wait to see it together.
00:15:47Yeah, you'll find that it's probably more cohesive than others.
00:15:51Okay.
00:15:51Oh, see you later.
00:15:55The block is hot, y'all.
00:15:58Real hot.
00:16:00If you were hearing a soundtrack for your design, what would it be?
00:16:03Either Madonna or like Brandy.
00:16:05Yes.
00:16:06For me, it's the Aaliyah song.
00:16:09At first, if you don't succeed, pick yourself up and try again.
00:16:12There's a picture of Aaliyah from the 90s.
00:16:16I designed the top and she wore it on the cover of i-D magazine.
00:16:20It was very meaningful to me because I was a struggling artist at the time.
00:16:23So it was a dream come true.
00:16:25Aaliyah was like the starting point of that whole like my career journey in a way,
00:16:29because she was one of the first big names and celebrities that wore my pieces.
00:16:32That's so cool.
00:16:35Gone way too soon.
00:16:37Way too soon.
00:16:39Little Ronce, what's happening over here?
00:16:42These are fabulous.
00:16:44They're gorgeous.
00:16:45Back in the 90s, I used to dream of leather.
00:16:47So I'm going to make an overall just to give you an idea.
00:16:50So...
00:16:51With straps.
00:16:52With leather straps.
00:16:53What were you like in high school?
00:16:55I was, let's just say the 90s is the best and the worst.
00:16:59So they could have made me or broke me.
00:17:01Because I mean, I was pregnant when I was 16.
00:17:04My parents didn't know.
00:17:05My family didn't know.
00:17:06No one knew?
00:17:06It was hidden.
00:17:07My family from West Africa, so they would have killed me.
00:17:10Yeah.
00:17:10So they literally found out two weeks before I gave birth.
00:17:12Wow.
00:17:13Yeah.
00:17:14My mom found me on the floor, passed out and had to take me to the emergency.
00:17:17The 90s was the toughest time in my life.
00:17:20My parents are from West Africa.
00:17:22So when I got pregnant at 16, my dad disowned me.
00:17:29I was always trying to...
00:17:31Hang on to the little things that happened.
00:17:36Yeah.
00:17:38Didn't really know where my life was going.
00:17:40Oh my gosh.
00:17:41And that's the same year I got into fashion school.
00:17:44Fashion probably saved my life because I went to fashion school in Paris.
00:17:49That's really the one thing I was holding on to.
00:17:51It was the toughest time of my life, but I wouldn't change a thing.
00:17:56There's beauty in everything.
00:17:57You just got to find it.
00:18:00All right. Well, I'm going to leave you.
00:18:02You got lots of work.
00:18:03Okay. You got to figure out this top.
00:18:04Yes.
00:18:05I will.
00:18:06Play around.
00:18:07Thank you so much.
00:18:08Good luck.
00:18:08Thanks.
00:18:09I'll see you after school.
00:18:10There you go.
00:18:15How's the team working?
00:18:16Amazing.
00:18:17Is there a leader?
00:18:19Karrison's a mother.
00:18:20Mother.
00:18:21Got it.
00:18:21A mother.
00:18:22Mother.
00:18:22Team spirit.
00:18:23The fashion team is amazing.
00:18:25Mother.
00:18:26Mother.
00:18:26Team spirit.
00:18:27The fashion fairy godmother, but yes.
00:18:29Because we wanted to make sure that we're a click in a school,
00:18:32but we're still very cohesive.
00:18:34Got it.
00:18:35I was the black Madonna of my high school,
00:18:37but I also, like, no doubt, I had everything.
00:18:39Yanni, you still do your blue hair.
00:18:41Right.
00:18:42In high school, I was a lot of things.
00:18:45I was the black Madonna.
00:18:46I was designing all of my clothes, like, made from scratch.
00:18:50The Madonna was very much a part of the 90s.
00:18:53So my girl is, like, the rebellious type.
00:18:56So I want to do this faux leather jumpsuit that's laced up.
00:19:01This faux vinyl, I don't know, guys.
00:19:03Because right now, I wouldn't say that this fits the best.
00:19:07Well, no.
00:19:07But also, that's a bigger mannequin.
00:19:09Yeah.
00:19:09No, I understand.
00:19:10There's just, like, things.
00:19:11Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:19:12So you've got to make this perfect if you're going to do it.
00:19:13I don't want to glue down the seam allowance until I fit her.
00:19:16Don't run out of time, because it has to look so cool and different.
00:19:20Oh, my god.
00:19:20Is she going to carry this phone?
00:19:22No, it is.
00:19:23It actually works.
00:19:26Oh, my god.
00:19:27Yeah.
00:19:27Oh, my god.
00:19:27Cher, Cher, let's go.
00:19:30Oh, my god.
00:19:31I just talked to Dion.
00:19:32We are going to be at the mall in 30 minutes.
00:19:35OK, see you in 30.
00:19:37All right, love you, guys.
00:19:38I'm dead.
00:19:42Kane, I'm coming to you.
00:19:43Oh, my god.
00:19:44Can I get my corset and you can envision?
00:19:47Where is it?
00:19:48Under the sewing machine.
00:19:49Is it ready?
00:19:50I mean, yeah.
00:19:51OK, go get it.
00:19:51OK, I'm going to go so fast.
00:19:54Got lots of time.
00:19:55I know you do.
00:20:00You're not sewing.
00:20:02Kane, just explain.
00:20:04You don't have any of it done.
00:20:06I'm coming, I promise.
00:20:08Let me just stay here and wait for you.
00:20:13This is crazy.
00:20:20This is crazy.
00:20:22Oh, my gosh.
00:20:23I know.
00:20:25I need a big picture because already I'm like, what's happening?
00:20:28My goal is to make a shirt that I would literally love to put Gwen Stefani in now,
00:20:34not in the 90s.
00:20:36And how are you guys keeping it cohesive?
00:20:38You're all using a plaid.
00:20:39You're all doing this kind of black, dark thing.
00:20:43Black is kind of like one of the colors, but we also have, there's a lot of plain red.
00:20:48And don't worry, we're going to pull in some fun, bright accessories that kind of also help.
00:20:55It's a little costumey of what, like, the 90s grunge look is.
00:21:00So I do think you just need something that makes it feel cool, modern of now.
00:21:05That's my goal.
00:21:06That'll be my goal.
00:21:07Got it.
00:21:07Goodbye.
00:21:08Goodbye.
00:21:13All right, so models will be here in a little over an hour,
00:21:16and I'll catch you on the flip side.
00:21:18Perfect.
00:21:19Bye.
00:21:26I gotta stretch shorty out.
00:21:27The shape of my jacket is the bee's knees.
00:21:33I can't believe that's what I thought of just now, the bee's knees.
00:21:37So that's it right there.
00:21:38Oh, thank you.
00:21:42I only need to fit her, and then I'll just glue it.
00:21:45I have to treat this pleather as if it was leather and glue down these seam allowances.
00:21:50And guess what she didn't bring?
00:21:51Leather glue.
00:21:52This fabric glue, it's not sticking.
00:21:55So I'm having to get real creative and hot glue the s*** down.
00:21:59Brett, what did you wear in the 90s?
00:22:03It was like all limited to, I think.
00:22:05Mine was like a mix between oversized polos from Tommy Hilfiger and thrift store.
00:22:11I did a lot.
00:22:12Oh my God.
00:22:13Growing up, I was the super weird, awkward kid.
00:22:17And by the end of my freshman year of high school, I topped the scales at 315 pounds.
00:22:24You know, kids would say things about my clothes.
00:22:27As a child, that's a hard thing to get over.
00:22:29But it definitely gave me a thicker skin.
00:22:32I learned there are things that are not going to go your way.
00:22:34There's going to be s*** people no matter where you go.
00:22:38But it's what I think has made me the designer I am today.
00:22:41All right, everybody, are we ready for a model?
00:22:46Yes, boys!
00:22:48The 90s are back, the models are back.
00:22:50Bring the models.
00:22:51Woo!
00:22:53Ellie!
00:22:55I'm Maxi.
00:22:57Hello, gorgeous.
00:22:59Back to the 90s, girl.
00:23:01I know.
00:23:03Hey.
00:23:03We love it.
00:23:04It's just a little too hot topic, and I'm trying to go a little bit more Vivienne Westwood.
00:23:08Get together, get together.
00:23:09There you go.
00:23:10The block is hot.
00:23:11I don't know what they're cooking up.
00:23:13It's all different restaurants right now.
00:23:15They're all stunning.
00:23:17But do they make sense?
00:23:19We should style the same, like the same look.
00:23:21I think that's the way to go.
00:23:23What do you like, what do you don't like?
00:23:25I think now we're just trying to make sure there's a balance of color.
00:23:27I'm imagining them coming out one by one and being tied together.
00:23:29Yeah, I agree.
00:23:31You don't have any orange ribbing?
00:23:33Yeah, I do.
00:23:35How would that look in the orange?
00:23:37Change the green to the orange?
00:23:39Let me see.
00:23:41Yeah, play around, guys.
00:23:43Because I think once you do that with my green sleeves,
00:23:45it will tie in with the pants.
00:23:47Okay.
00:23:49What are you doing here on top?
00:23:51How did you finish this part?
00:23:53I think I'm just going to line stitch it.
00:23:55Oh, you could finish it with a leather trim.
00:23:57Laurence is the woman king, okay?
00:23:59Any of you are doing hats?
00:24:01I want to make one.
00:24:03I'm doing that.
00:24:05Oh, using hats, orange?
00:24:07I'm a team player, but I know how to step back when someone else is leading
00:24:09and be a team player.
00:24:11So I think we all are mature enough to know that
00:24:13we are the gift to each other.
00:24:15So guys, we just need to tighten up the fit,
00:24:17tighten up the little details
00:24:19now that we've seen it.
00:24:21Use the scraps we have from each other
00:24:23to connect it.
00:24:25Kane, where's your skirt?
00:24:27Coming!
00:24:29Is it giving, like, a reveal moment?
00:24:31A little bit.
00:24:33Performance, right?
00:24:35That's the skirt, Kane?
00:24:37We're about to see.
00:24:39I think you guys need to get together
00:24:41and see what this is.
00:24:43Be over here so Kane can just keep pinning.
00:24:45Yeah, come on over here.
00:24:47Because he's not really ready.
00:24:49Carousel's going to have your little belt.
00:24:51This is plaid.
00:24:53This is red plaid.
00:24:55You better put a piece there and decide that you like that.
00:24:57I think our collection is looking
00:24:59very cohesive.
00:25:01You're still doing the shirt, right?
00:25:03I think the only thing
00:25:05that I am a little anxious about
00:25:07is really just making sure
00:25:09that the top that I make is the star.
00:25:11I think now it's about figuring out
00:25:13the tiny things.
00:25:15There's little details.
00:25:17That's the connecting thing.
00:25:19Good luck.
00:25:21We only have three minutes.
00:25:23I've got to fit her in this corset.
00:25:25Okay.
00:25:27Say goodbye to your models.
00:25:29Thank you, models.
00:25:31See you tomorrow.
00:25:33Bye.
00:25:35Art designers,
00:25:37you guys have one hour left.
00:25:39In the spirit of high school,
00:25:41I'm going to send you a little pizza for later.
00:25:43Yay.
00:25:45Pizza party.
00:25:47Bye.
00:25:49I was asking if you need help with something.
00:25:51Are you done?
00:25:53It is the end of the day,
00:25:55and I think the red team
00:25:57should have spent more time in their collection
00:25:59and making it a cohesive collection
00:26:01and not looking like a Broadway play.
00:26:13Guess what, y'all?
00:26:15The block ain't hot no more.
00:26:17Chris just said we can go to a pizza party.
00:26:19Let's go.
00:26:21Yo, yo, yo.
00:26:23Make sure we got VIP.
00:26:25Pizza party.
00:26:29Hello, pizza.
00:26:31It's time for pizza, baby.
00:26:33Destroy some pizza.
00:26:35I need some ranch.
00:26:37And cheese sticks.
00:26:39Look here.
00:26:41I love that for us.
00:26:47How y'all feeling about tomorrow?
00:26:49You know what? I'm excited.
00:26:51Do we have any time concerns?
00:26:53I have finishings to do.
00:26:55First and foremost, it's a collection.
00:26:57If one person's not done,
00:26:59then it just automatically goes to the bottom.
00:27:01Let's cheers the red team.
00:27:05Let's go.
00:27:07We'll see y'all in the courtyard.
00:27:09Okay, y'all.
00:27:11Give me a star.
00:27:13I have a concern.
00:27:15I worry about the blue team.
00:27:17It's on fire.
00:27:19Yeah, Pookie.
00:27:21They're talking all that mess right now.
00:27:23Just go ahead and drive up with the limo.
00:27:25The red team can get their own Uber.
00:27:29See y'all in the courtyard tomorrow.
00:27:31Coming up...
00:27:33It's giving me Halloween costume.
00:27:35That wasn't a good look.
00:27:47We're almost finished
00:27:49with our team challenge,
00:27:51and somebody's going home
00:27:53from the losing team,
00:27:55and I'm ready to see
00:27:57who's gonna murder who.
00:27:59No, that was intense.
00:28:01Never mind.
00:28:03Let's take that back.
00:28:09All right, guys.
00:28:11Team spirit, let's go.
00:28:13Let's do it.
00:28:15Welcome to the table.
00:28:17It's us again.
00:28:21Once I have my cone bra,
00:28:23I will make the sweater
00:28:25so it's just sleeves and the neck.
00:28:27Okay, so what else do I need here?
00:28:29Hi, everybody.
00:28:31How's it going?
00:28:33It's going.
00:28:35Guys, it's show day.
00:28:37It is show day.
00:28:39Designers, when you're ready,
00:28:41take your models to the TRESemmé hair salon
00:28:43for a glam.
00:28:45All right, designers, who wants a model?
00:28:47I want a model.
00:28:49Bring me the model.
00:28:51Totally rad.
00:28:53Good morning.
00:28:55Good morning.
00:28:57Hi, baby.
00:28:59So let's try that on real quick,
00:29:01and then I will get started
00:29:03on the skirt real fast.
00:29:05I connected the sleeves
00:29:07because it was starting to get too fussy,
00:29:09and I'm like, don't have time.
00:29:11It's going to be exciting.
00:29:13We got to take them to hair and makeup, guys.
00:29:15All right, come on.
00:29:19So we're doing a 90s
00:29:21pop R&B vibe.
00:29:23We're thinking glossy lip.
00:29:25Pull it down, Verbena.
00:29:27Don't be afraid to pull it down,
00:29:29because it's going to go up naturally.
00:29:31Brittany, do you have everybody for makeup?
00:29:33Yeah.
00:29:35Okay, cool.
00:29:37Space buns.
00:29:39Like a bun.
00:29:41What's that going on?
00:29:43Proje's pants.
00:29:45I'm making a pocket for them.
00:29:47Yours is perfect?
00:29:49I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't feel like it.
00:29:51That's why I'm asking.
00:29:53Okay.
00:29:57Number 43
00:29:59is the number of the
00:30:01president of Haiti was assassinated
00:30:03in his house.
00:30:05It's been a year, and there have been nothing done.
00:30:07It's something that I do in my work now
00:30:09as a tribute and also as awareness.
00:30:15This coat is happening?
00:30:17It's happening.
00:30:19Is it going to have sleeves or just a vest?
00:30:21No, just a vest.
00:30:23Yeah, she looks great.
00:30:25Wow, guys.
00:30:27She whipped that shit out quick.
00:30:31Dang, how did you do that that fast?
00:30:33Can you do a small 42 in black?
00:30:35I've been trying to figure out
00:30:37each challenge, how I can represent my
00:30:39sister, and this just felt natural.
00:30:41What's this 42 stand for?
00:30:43My sister's age before she passed away.
00:30:45Oh, I love that.
00:30:47I love that.
00:30:49I'm trying to cut as fast as possible.
00:30:51Hey, you guys, we have a little less than an hour
00:30:53left.
00:30:55What is that thing?
00:30:57It's a top.
00:30:59Does that top work?
00:31:01It works.
00:31:03Are you on this team?
00:31:05Yeah.
00:31:07I have got to sew the top part of my top to the corset
00:31:09so that it's all one piece,
00:31:11and then I've got to make this whole skirt.
00:31:13Watch me whip this together in 15 minutes.
00:31:15Okay, I will.
00:31:19Let's try this.
00:31:21I want to compare the legs, so walk towards me.
00:31:23All right, headed to the high school in 30 minutes.
00:31:25Do you need this cape thing?
00:31:27I like it, I just want it shorter.
00:31:29It's not a cape. I never even thought of this as a cape.
00:31:31This is actually attached to the corset.
00:31:33This is a cool corset with a cool back detail.
00:31:35This is a lot of look over here.
00:31:37I'm just running out of time.
00:31:39The 90s are really giving me s***, y'all.
00:31:45Major.
00:31:49So much fun.
00:31:53Oh, my God.
00:31:55This is so exciting.
00:31:57All right, designers, one minute,
00:31:59and we're leaving this room.
00:32:01I hope you're ready.
00:32:09Hand needles? You have them?
00:32:11Yeah.
00:32:13All right, designers, that's it.
00:32:15That's time.
00:32:17We're taking your models to the high school.
00:32:19Let's go.
00:32:21One, two, three.
00:32:23Oh, my God.
00:32:29I feel like this is the high school
00:32:31that I truly deserved to go to.
00:32:33A fashion high school
00:32:35where the halls are actually runways.
00:32:37All right, ten minutes, last look.
00:32:39You got a lot to do.
00:32:41Are you having flashbacks?
00:32:43This is it. This is high school.
00:32:45I'm running out of time.
00:32:47I'm praying
00:32:49that the seams
00:32:51are actually glued down.
00:32:53It's perfect.
00:32:55The hem is perfect.
00:32:57All right, designers, that's it.
00:32:59That's time.
00:33:01All right, head to the runway.
00:33:03Ooh!
00:33:05Oh, my God!
00:33:11Oh, I'm having PTSD.
00:33:15Oh, my God!
00:33:17Hi, designers!
00:33:19Hey!
00:33:21Welcome back to the runway.
00:33:23Or in this case, high school.
00:33:25Hey!
00:33:27Oh, my God!
00:33:29Oh, my God!
00:33:31High school.
00:33:33That entrance brought me back
00:33:35to a place that I'm not sure
00:33:37I was ready to go.
00:33:39Hello, designers.
00:33:41Hi.
00:33:43So I know you already met her,
00:33:45but please welcome
00:33:4790s icon Jenny Garth.
00:33:51Hi, designers. I'm so excited
00:33:53to see what you've done.
00:33:55We cannot wait to see
00:33:57these mini collections.
00:33:59All right, let's start the show.
00:34:01Oh, my God!
00:34:03Oh, my God!
00:34:07This is exciting.
00:34:09We're ready to see whether
00:34:11the blue team is gonna slay the red team
00:34:13or the other way around.
00:34:15Oh, my God!
00:34:25Oh!
00:34:27We have Sinead come out
00:34:29and set the tone for the collection.
00:34:31It has me super excited.
00:34:33Whoo!
00:34:39The jacket's fitting.
00:34:41The skirt is bouncing
00:34:43how I want it to bounce.
00:34:45The glasses are adding the attitude.
00:34:51This look is definitely
00:34:53where I wanted it to go.
00:34:57Whoo!
00:35:01Whoo!
00:35:03Luz has this cool attitude
00:35:05with her glasses on, her ponytail.
00:35:07Her cargoes are owning the runway,
00:35:09and she just looks way too cool for school.
00:35:11Is that a Walkman?
00:35:13It is.
00:35:21This look represents
00:35:23the variety of things that I do as a designer,
00:35:25and this is the first time
00:35:27I've done a complex cargo pant,
00:35:29so I'm proud of myself.
00:35:39My look is realistic 90s.
00:35:41It's super expensive.
00:35:43These kids are into fashion.
00:35:45They are watching the music videos.
00:35:47They are trying to dress
00:35:49just like those celebrities.
00:35:51I've been creating work
00:35:53that is me,
00:35:55and I'm proud of that,
00:35:57so everything is right on point.
00:36:03Mimi is Madonna.
00:36:05She's L.B. She's Farrah.
00:36:07She's all of us.
00:36:09That's how I used to dress.
00:36:11Yes!
00:36:13I love it.
00:36:15I love it.
00:36:17I love it.
00:36:19Yes!
00:36:21She gave me life.
00:36:39I wouldn't change a thing.
00:36:41Mimi killed it.
00:36:43I love her for that.
00:36:45Yes!
00:36:47When Emily turns that corner,
00:36:49I'm like, get it, girl.
00:36:59I like those sleeves.
00:37:01Right?
00:37:11I really feel like I've represented
00:37:13who I am 100% as a designer.
00:37:17Blue Team really set a standard
00:37:19and delivered.
00:37:21We came together as a team,
00:37:23and we shut it all the way down.
00:37:29All right, team King so far.
00:37:31We'll give you props.
00:37:33All right, guys.
00:37:35Here we go.
00:37:37Whoo!
00:37:41Oh, my God!
00:37:43Wow.
00:37:45What is in their breakfast this morning?
00:37:47It's like the detention kit
00:37:49all together.
00:38:01My look,
00:38:03it's just fabulous,
00:38:05very 90s.
00:38:07If you don't like my look,
00:38:09I don't believe it.
00:38:17I love it.
00:38:23Wow.
00:38:25Believable.
00:38:27My look is very chic,
00:38:29and I think I did everything that I could
00:38:31to be a team player.
00:38:35Whoo!
00:38:37Whoo!
00:38:39I definitely feel like
00:38:41this look represents who I am.
00:38:43I love cool girl
00:38:45clothes.
00:38:47I think the construction is lacking a bit.
00:38:49I know they're gonna call me out for it,
00:38:51but it isn't something that's horrendous.
00:38:53My DNA
00:38:55is in my look.
00:38:57That's all that matters.
00:38:59But honestly,
00:39:01everybody's got some really,
00:39:03really cool looks.
00:39:05Whoo!
00:39:13Yeah!
00:39:15Honestly,
00:39:17I'm so proud of the fit of this corset.
00:39:19Even the skirt.
00:39:21I know I made this skirt in, like, an hour,
00:39:23but I think it looks bangin'.
00:39:25That's a perp.
00:39:33This is hard.
00:39:35This is actually really hard.
00:39:37The judges have only seen gowns
00:39:39from me at this point,
00:39:41so this is great to give them something different.
00:39:43Whoo!
00:39:45Whoo!
00:39:49I don't feel like I could have pushed any further.
00:39:51I added sexy.
00:39:53I created a garment
00:39:55that looks like a backpack,
00:39:57which is something that I know
00:39:59is gonna be a best-seller for me.
00:40:01Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:03Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:05Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:07Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:09Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:11Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:13Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:15Boom, boom, boom.
00:40:17This is so unique,
00:40:19and I am so proud of this.
00:40:21Oh!
00:40:25I like that a lot.
00:40:31I'm captivated by Jessica.
00:40:33She just owns that hallway.
00:40:35This is good.
00:40:37I want that puffer.
00:40:41Fabulous.
00:40:49The style of that puffer vest
00:40:51is very unique
00:40:53to something that I would do.
00:40:55I really do think that our team
00:40:57did the whole cohesive
00:40:59collection really well.
00:41:05Whoo!
00:41:11I think both collections
00:41:13walked down the runway.
00:41:15Honestly,
00:41:17it's anybody's game.
00:41:23I don't know
00:41:25what team is gonna come out on top.
00:41:31Wow.
00:41:33I've never seen Ina this excited.
00:41:37But unfortunately,
00:41:39only one team can win,
00:41:41and the overall winner
00:41:43will come from that team.
00:41:45Someone from the losing team
00:41:47will be out.
00:41:49All right, you guys,
00:41:51meet us back at the runway
00:41:53so we can discuss your designs.
00:42:01Hello.
00:42:03Hello.
00:42:05Designers, as you know,
00:42:07and the winner will come
00:42:09from that team,
00:42:11and someone from the losing team
00:42:13will be out.
00:42:15This could not have been
00:42:17a more fun show.
00:42:19It had us in stitches.
00:42:21It was wonderful
00:42:23to watch you, all of you.
00:42:25But there was one team
00:42:27that was slightly more dynamic
00:42:29and was truly
00:42:31fashion-forward.
00:42:33The winning team is...
00:42:37We're blue?
00:42:41Oh, congratulations.
00:42:43We did it, we did it, we did it.
00:42:45Blue team, what really had you guys
00:42:47rising to the top
00:42:49with all five looks was that there was
00:42:51a clear, cohesive identity
00:42:53in the design itself.
00:42:57Unfortunately, it means that the red team
00:42:59was our least favorite team,
00:43:01and one of you will be out.
00:43:03Project,
00:43:05Vishmi,
00:43:07Laurence, you had
00:43:09our favorite looks from the winning team.
00:43:13Yes.
00:43:15Brittany,
00:43:17Fabio,
00:43:19Kane,
00:43:21unfortunately, you had the lowest scores
00:43:23on the losing team.
00:43:25Karasan, your look was one of our favorite.
00:43:27Thank you. It so happened it was
00:43:29on the losing team.
00:43:31Everyone in can leave the runway.
00:43:35You too.
00:43:41Oh my God, this is so intense.
00:43:43Congratulations.
00:43:45Yeah, you too, dude.
00:43:47Let's start by talking to our designers
00:43:49from the winning team. Vishmi, let's get
00:43:51your look out here.
00:43:53Love it.
00:43:59Okay, so tell us, how did you come up
00:44:01with the concept?
00:44:03Our girl is a video hip-hop background
00:44:05dancer for Lil' Kim, TLC.
00:44:07Did you always know it would be
00:44:09in this off-the-shoulder jacket and skirt?
00:44:11My favorite thing on
00:44:13a woman, even though I'm gay, but my favorite
00:44:15thing on a woman is her collarbone,
00:44:17like this area. I did not know you were gay.
00:44:19You didn't? No.
00:44:21Me too.
00:44:23This was the first look that came out.
00:44:25It really set the tone.
00:44:27The styling was fantastic
00:44:29and had such a joy and a spirit
00:44:31to it and attitude.
00:44:33Thank you, Brandon. There was so much sass
00:44:35involved in the way you did the bottom
00:44:37of the skirt. Just the detail of it,
00:44:39I felt like it's really well made.
00:44:41Thank you. I'm interested, is there
00:44:43a story behind the number on her arm?
00:44:45Yeah, it's the age that my sister
00:44:47passed away, so my sister
00:44:49was a big hip-hop
00:44:51fan, from Biggie to everyone.
00:44:53Her spirit came through, so
00:44:55congrats. Thank you.
00:44:57I'll see you at the runway.
00:44:59Thanks. Thank you.
00:45:01Okay, let's bring out another
00:45:03one of our favorites, Praje.
00:45:05♪♪
00:45:07I just love seeing you.
00:45:09Praje,
00:45:11hello. Hi.
00:45:13Is it real leather or pleather? Oh yes, it's
00:45:15real leather. You know, I learned from the master,
00:45:17the queen of leather.
00:45:19It's for the 43rd president of
00:45:21Haiti who was assassinated, kind of like
00:45:23my way of keeping awareness on that.
00:45:25There's always a print with me.
00:45:27You embodied everything we love about the
00:45:2990s. I, like, heard the music playing.
00:45:31You killed it. Like, you gave
00:45:33it this runway edge
00:45:35by adding these little pockets.
00:45:37The trapper keepers. It's street wear.
00:45:39It's street style. It's like, it's supposed to be
00:45:41a little bit off. These pockets
00:45:43here are supposed to be removable,
00:45:45but there was no split zipper,
00:45:47but I still did anyway. And here you see
00:45:49shower cassette and tape, so
00:45:51the idea of switching back and forth.
00:45:53This look really solidified
00:45:55your cohesive collection.
00:45:57I love the color combinations.
00:45:59That is one
00:46:01very beautifully made
00:46:03jacket. Thank you. I do
00:46:05not agree with Elaine
00:46:07about the pockets because I found
00:46:09them distracting, but I know
00:46:11you can zipper them off. Yeah.
00:46:13You know, I'm super curious
00:46:15about the top that's under the bomber jacket.
00:46:17Yeah.
00:46:19I knew I would love it.
00:46:21Super classy
00:46:23and elevates the look of what could be
00:46:25very sporty. Another thing I truly
00:46:27loved was, sorry Nina, but the pockets.
00:46:31I can't agree on everything. I know.
00:46:33This was giving me trapper keeper vibes
00:46:35on the next level. The 90s was
00:46:37all about fun and you don't give a,
00:46:39you just do it. That's what I
00:46:41wanted to channel. Like, so what my pockets
00:46:43are flipping, mind your business.
00:46:45Literally, that's what it
00:46:47was. But you can't remove them. They can't
00:46:49completely zip all the way back up.
00:46:51Oh, that's cute. Love it.
00:46:53All right. Thank you, Project.
00:46:55Roberta, you can leave the runway.
00:46:59Another high look of the night belonged to
00:47:01Laurence.
00:47:07I'm able to really enjoy this
00:47:09more now that we're in, like, this
00:47:11contained space.
00:47:13As soon as you guys started coming, running
00:47:15down the hallway, screaming, beating the lockers,
00:47:17that really sent me to a place
00:47:19like, don't want to be here 18 years ago,
00:47:21don't want to be here now.
00:47:23Okay, Laurence, tell us about your
00:47:25experience. When we started, we
00:47:27discussed the music that we loved
00:47:29in the 90s. So,
00:47:31I chose to channel
00:47:33TLC and Madonna.
00:47:35I appreciated the Madonna blonde
00:47:37ambition nod there.
00:47:39The platform docs, the ball,
00:47:41the bucket hat, it all just
00:47:43creates this bad bitch
00:47:45vibe, and it's
00:47:47so good. I just love that your look
00:47:49got Kelly from 90210 to say
00:47:51bad bitch.
00:47:53I'm actually very much in awe in the amount of time
00:47:55that you had that you
00:47:57were able to do this. It's
00:47:59damn near perfect. Thank you.
00:48:01From an editor's perspective,
00:48:03it could walk down a
00:48:05runway, it could be a wonderful
00:48:07editorial picture,
00:48:09yet all of this doesn't scream
00:48:11retro, it screams
00:48:13future. Thank you.
00:48:15Mimi, you can leave the runway.
00:48:17I've never seen Mimi like this before,
00:48:19by the way. It's like, look!
00:48:21Showed us a whole new side
00:48:23tonight, Mimi. Okay, now moving
00:48:25on to the red team, the losing team
00:48:27tonight. It felt chaotic.
00:48:29Honestly, and nobody was on the
00:48:31same page ever.
00:48:37Honestly, and nobody was on the same page
00:48:39ever. Let's get Kane's
00:48:41model out here. Come on,
00:48:43Lyris.
00:48:47Kane, what do you
00:48:49think could have put you on the bottom
00:48:51in retrospect? So,
00:48:53I mean, I think it's just the other team
00:48:55did a really fantastic
00:48:57job. We loved a little bit more of
00:48:59the darker side of high school.
00:49:01I thought Carouson knocked it out
00:49:03of the park and helped take the lead
00:49:05as our, you know, fashion godmother,
00:49:07and we all agreed, let's go with more of the
00:49:09bad girl. I wanted the corset to be
00:49:11the star because her voluptuous, gorgeous
00:49:13shape is beautiful. I am
00:49:15wearing a corset as well, as you can see,
00:49:17so I know you're in pain.
00:49:19She told me she wanted to be snatched, so...
00:49:21It's just such a great fit.
00:49:23I wasn't sure, though, about
00:49:25the combination of the plaids.
00:49:27I was, like, excited to see a flannel
00:49:29tied around the waist, but then
00:49:31she turned around and there was no shirt in the back.
00:49:33The cape, I don't know what to call this.
00:49:35It just didn't come together for me.
00:49:37I didn't love all of that lace covering
00:49:39up her decollete, and then the choker
00:49:41got lost. I am tried
00:49:43and true an evening wear designer, so for me,
00:49:45it's a stretch. You know, I remember
00:49:47the 90s, but I was 315
00:49:49pounds wearing thrift store clothes
00:49:51and, like, grew up really poor,
00:49:53so I wasn't the cool kid
00:49:55like a lot of my group.
00:49:57I love your story. Listen,
00:49:59I have ingested
00:50:01a lifetime of Dippin' Dots all
00:50:03through growing up in my little
00:50:05penny loafers, and I was thinking about
00:50:07this as you were talking. I once
00:50:09had a bad girl phase for about three months
00:50:11and I did a collection that was based on that, and
00:50:13every time I'm challenged with looking back at that
00:50:15collection, I have to close my eyes
00:50:17because it's not what my brand is about
00:50:19and that's not what I'm about, right?
00:50:21And so, I think that you
00:50:23were trying to fit a
00:50:25square into a circle.
00:50:27It's like a good girl trying to be bad.
00:50:31Lyris, you can leave the runway.
00:50:33Brittany,
00:50:35let's get your model out here.
00:50:39Alright, Brittany, tell us about
00:50:41the choice to go
00:50:43left on the plaid of everybody else.
00:50:45I wanted something a little bit more, like,
00:50:47edgy, and I think that doing
00:50:49this full, like, head-to-toe in plaid
00:50:51would have been a lot. The corset
00:50:53was damn near perfect last night,
00:50:55but, you know, did come
00:50:57totally unbonded right here.
00:50:59Wait, so is that leather? It's faux leather.
00:51:01The pleather is just, it's giving me Halloween
00:51:03costume. Yeah. And ultimately,
00:51:05it didn't feel
00:51:07cohesive. Why was the blue team
00:51:09able to afford leather
00:51:11and you all felt like you couldn't
00:51:13afford it? We also chose lace
00:51:15and lace is a very expensive yardage
00:51:17at Moulin Rouge, so it's either the lace
00:51:19or the real leather. If those
00:51:21overalls were made in pleather,
00:51:23Laurence might be in the bottom tonight.
00:51:25It looks a little cheap. I too
00:51:27love a good space bun,
00:51:29but these space buns actually scared
00:51:31me. I agree.
00:51:33Jenny is looking a little diabolical
00:51:35and the gold grommets
00:51:37for me were a little distracting.
00:51:39As a whole, I didn't get it.
00:51:41Marielle, you can leave the runway.
00:51:43Fabio,
00:51:45let's get your look out here.
00:51:51Fabio, tell us about your look and the
00:51:53experience of working with the team. I
00:51:55really thought of Angelina Jolie
00:51:57in Hackers. That is my favorite
00:51:59movie of all time. I felt like that's the
00:52:01high school that I wanted to go to
00:52:03because everyone was just so fashion-forward
00:52:05and creative and just
00:52:07outcast. I'm not really getting
00:52:09a rebel and an outcast.
00:52:11I was getting Tommy Hilfiger
00:52:13slash Ralph Lauren.
00:52:15I really missed that.
00:52:17Maybe you were being very subtle
00:52:19in your intentions. It almost felt
00:52:21a little safe, Fabio.
00:52:23You know what I mean? No, I don't, Nina.
00:52:25Well, I'm telling you.
00:52:27It felt safe. I feel like a lot of
00:52:29energy was put on that vest,
00:52:31but I wanted more.
00:52:33I'll jump in. I
00:52:35love it. Thank you.
00:52:37That jacket is so inventive and
00:52:39creative. From the neckline
00:52:41to the little zipper, the way
00:52:43it's constructed, the backpack
00:52:45serves a purpose, and it's cute.
00:52:47I quite liked the whole thing.
00:52:49Thank you. I hear, Nina, while
00:52:51I didn't totally get it, now that you're
00:52:53saying this Raver cyberpunk inspiration,
00:52:55I do see that. I feel like she's carrying
00:52:57her laptop in that...
00:52:59Anything but books. Yeah.
00:53:01Yeah.
00:53:03I really liked that it cut
00:53:05just so
00:53:07that it framed her underboob
00:53:09like it hinted at bad girl,
00:53:11but she's still smart and
00:53:13on a mission. And I do think there
00:53:15is a world for this backpack.
00:53:17Oh, there is. But there were other looks
00:53:19that had more wow factor, ultimately.
00:53:21I get it. I honestly feel like it's
00:53:23the best thing I've done in the season so far,
00:53:25but I understand the critiques, obviously.
00:53:27Thank you, Fabio. Brandon, you can leave
00:53:29the runway.
00:53:33We do need some time to talk about this,
00:53:35so we're gonna ask you to leave the runway.
00:53:41Congratulations.
00:53:45This is your moment, girl. I'm so happy for you.
00:53:47Okay, we had two teams
00:53:49here. One just felt a little more
00:53:51modern than the other, so should we talk about
00:53:53them first? Yes.
00:53:55Let's start by talking about Praja.
00:53:57I know that there was a hot debate about the
00:53:59Trapper Keeper pockets on the pants.
00:54:01I did not like the Trapper Keepers.
00:54:03I thought that was really heavy.
00:54:05I didn't mind the
00:54:07Trapper Keepers, guys. I also felt like
00:54:09that was kind of hip-hop, so to me
00:54:11it wasn't distracting in
00:54:13a bad way, necessarily. I love
00:54:15the pop of the white and the freshness of
00:54:17the white. Me too.
00:54:19And what did you think about Laurence's, Nina?
00:54:21Laurence's now.
00:54:23You can see it walk down a
00:54:25runway today. Laurence's
00:54:27look was done with such
00:54:29incredible detail.
00:54:31And craftsmanship. Laurence's look
00:54:33held my attention the entire time on the
00:54:35runway. But we all love Bishme
00:54:37as well. Love, love Bishme's look.
00:54:39And I thought what Bishme did was
00:54:41so true to him and very
00:54:43true to the challenge. And the numbers
00:54:45that got me. It's a tribute
00:54:47to his sister. This is a pretty flawless
00:54:49look. It was
00:54:51flirty and fun, and it really
00:54:53did set the tone for him watching that whole
00:54:55show. So we all know who our winner is.
00:54:57Yeah. Now to the hard part.
00:54:59We have to talk about who is going
00:55:01to go home. So let's talk about
00:55:03Kane. That wasn't a good look.
00:55:05From a design perspective,
00:55:07when you step back, it didn't work.
00:55:09I agree. He lost me on
00:55:11the cape. It reminded me of a witch
00:55:13costume, honestly. But that bustier
00:55:15I thought was really beautiful.
00:55:17It was finished to high hell.
00:55:19I knew it was going to take
00:55:21mine to more of a hot topic place.
00:55:23I didn't have another choice. It was the
00:55:25pleather or nothing. Does Siriano ever
00:55:27used to say this early?
00:55:29Wishful thinking. Others, for me, were
00:55:31as bad as Kane. And would you
00:55:33be talking about Fabio? Yeah, I am
00:55:35talking about Fabio. Because this is the second
00:55:37time that Fabio gives me something
00:55:39that is very quiet.
00:55:41But I did love
00:55:43that backpack thing.
00:55:45I haven't seen that before. But I'm not
00:55:47so sure that Fabio can deliver
00:55:49something that is not so safe.
00:55:51I love what I made, but let them
00:55:53decide. Let them decide.
00:55:55Let us not forget about Brittany
00:55:57and Pleathergate
00:55:592023.
00:56:01Having to look at the binding
00:56:03of those seams glued together with that
00:56:05pleather hurt my soul. She was just
00:56:07doing way too damn much with the look.
00:56:09I liked the idea
00:56:11so much of the top,
00:56:13but the bottom was giving me
00:56:15Fredericks of Hollywood.
00:56:17And it just didn't feel at the same level.
00:56:19Yeah. All I know
00:56:21is that when I look at Fabio,
00:56:23Brittany, and Kane,
00:56:25none of those looks went together.
00:56:27I think we all agree
00:56:29we know who's going home.
00:56:40I just want to kick off by saying
00:56:42we love the 90s
00:56:44and you all delivered
00:56:46a kick-ass 90s
00:56:48runway show. So you made
00:56:50our jobs so hard.
00:56:54Vichy,
00:56:56Laurence,
00:56:58and Projet.
00:57:00All three of you delivered
00:57:02modern, successful takes
00:57:04on the 90s. Job
00:57:06well done. Thank you.
00:57:08The winner of this challenge
00:57:10showcased a
00:57:12clear vision, expert
00:57:14execution, and one of the best
00:57:16looks that we've seen in this competition.
00:57:18The winner is...
00:57:22Laurence.
00:57:26Come on, baby.
00:57:28Thank you. Thank you, guys.
00:57:30I didn't know you had this
00:57:32in a bag.
00:57:34Laurence, your look was so
00:57:36fresh and exciting that could
00:57:38jump right out of the next fashion magazine.
00:57:40Thank you so much.
00:57:42Vichy and Projet, you're also in.
00:57:44You can all leave the runway.
00:57:46Thank you, guys.
00:57:48Congrats, Laurence.
00:57:50I won the challenge.
00:57:52Every challenge, I get to show
00:57:54a little piece of me to the world.
00:57:56So if I can stand by what I do
00:57:58and I love what I do, then I'm winning.
00:58:00The queen of leather!
00:58:02The queen of leather!
00:58:04Yes!
00:58:06So deserving, sis.
00:58:08Yes.
00:58:10Brittany, Fabio,
00:58:12and Kane.
00:58:14You all three
00:58:16missed the mark for different reasons.
00:58:18Fabio,
00:58:22you are in.
00:58:24Thank you. You can leave the runway.
00:58:26Congratulations.
00:58:28I'll promise
00:58:30I won't put up.
00:58:32All right.
00:58:34Brittany
00:58:36and Kane,
00:58:38this part is never easy.
00:58:40One of you will be in
00:58:42and one of you
00:58:44will be out.
00:58:46Brittany, your choice
00:58:48of material was a mistake
00:58:50and it caused the look to go
00:58:52costumey.
00:58:54Kane,
00:58:56your look was confusing.
00:58:58It didn't show your DNA
00:59:00and it wasn't exactly runway ready.
00:59:06Kane,
00:59:08I'm so sorry,
00:59:10but you are out.
00:59:12It's all right.
00:59:14But you know we love you.
00:59:16Girl.
00:59:18Girl.
00:59:20Kane,
00:59:22I'm going to miss you.
00:59:24This has been such like...
00:59:26You're going to make me cry.
00:59:28You've got to stop crying.
00:59:30I appreciate what you guys said.
00:59:32I'm going to take it to heart.
00:59:34I'm going to go home
00:59:36and for the next ten years,
00:59:38I'm going to digest it.
00:59:40Last time, it took me a long time
00:59:42to understand the refined,
00:59:44amazing editor critiques from you.
00:59:46You have such an important talent
00:59:48and you can sew a damn dress.
00:59:50It's been a pleasure.
00:59:52Brittany, you are in.
00:59:54You can both lead the runway.
00:59:56Thank you both so much.
01:00:04Classy guy.
01:00:06You know, it's part of the competition.
01:00:08Don't be sorry.
01:00:10It's been a pleasure.
01:00:12Oh, Kane.
01:00:14I'm going back home to an amazing business,
01:00:16a bunch of retailers that love what I put down.
01:00:18We love what you put down.
01:00:20My boo, my doggie, my puppy.
01:00:22Kane.
01:00:24Yes.
01:00:26I'm going to miss you.
01:00:28I'm going to miss you too, boo.
01:00:30Remember, you won that first challenge
01:00:32and $10,000.
01:00:34Exactly.
