We started the fashion line in 2014, debuted at fashion week 2015,

and now we're going back to fashion week 2019 with the new fashion collection.

- You're gonna die with this one.

- Oh! It's so tyra banks!

He actually was on "project runway," and he's asked me

- Marry 'em, kill 'em. - Marry 'em. Kill, baby.

In my cabaret show, I do a q&a with the audience,

and always, without a doubt, I get asked this question.

"who would I marry, who would I eff, and who would I kill?"

of the new sonja by sonja morgan.

It's not the sonja morgan new york collection. It's gonna be good.

I've been working all summer on this new fashion collection.

This is ready-to-wear, which means everything costs less than $250.

Now, who isn't ready to wear that?

The show is in a week. I want to know what you guys are gonna do to be ready.

We've got the clothes. What about the models?

- The models. We, like, have, like, a... a... a bunch of models that we're gonna... [laughs]

- No, but can we just use one agency?

- We're pulling models from, uh, different agencies, not just one agency.

- Why? I like to stick to one agency. Is that a spider?

- It is a little tiny spider. - Oh!

- Itsy-bitsy spider. - Goodbye!

- Tell me it's good luck or something!

This is a big hurdle for me and I don't want to mess it up.

All the girls are coming. All my designer friends who support me. It's nerve-wracking!

The second floor is a very long room. It seats 225 people.

Just a gay party at the townhouse is 200 and some.

We have dead bodies. We have 75 dead bodies after a party!

Sometimes I think team sonja forgets what the reason is for having a fashion show.

It's not just to have a flowing bar and great food and to see all your friends.

I have a lot of retailers that have been watching me

and wanting to buy the collection, so maybe it's time to pull the trigger.

I'm so nervous. I'm not gonna sleep tonight. I'm not gonna sleep until the show's over.

This is something I used to do. This was for the old me,

just means that... makes me feel like I'm just sort of back to being

the person that I was before and the person that I kind of

feel like I lost when I moved away from new york.

- Right. - My mom, I told her

that I did end up drinking.

Not the end of the world.

she wasn't responding to my text messages after I told her,

so when I called my dad after garo sparo,

I told him, "I'm trying to get in touch with mom,

"you know, mommy's, like, really mad at you,

I don't feel like I put myself in any danger.

Um, yeah, I had a hangover the next day. That part sucks.

And I'm not really used to those. Um, she's just...

- Overreacting to it. - But not talking to you

is really not helpful. - It's not helpful.

For my mom, when she hears I'm drinking again,

it's just like a trigger for her.

I definitely think that my mom still views me as that wild teenager.

It's very hard for her to accept me as a 37-year-old woman

who's got her sh... together.

She'll come around, you know? But...

- But what did she say when you told her? You're the one who told her.

- She didn't say anything. She didn't text.

- Oh, you told her by text? Why'd you do it by text?

You don't do things like that by text.

- I'm a millennial. - She's a millennial.

Everything is done by text. - Oh, my god!

- Text messages are for just like, "what time will you be there?" and "I'm running late."

not to tell your mother who had to put you in rehab when you were a teenager

and didn't want you to come home after rehab, "oh, I'm drinking again, mom."

Like, you guys don't know, like, I still try to, like, please my mom,

so, like, I would also tell her things that maybe I shouldn't.

It's like the worst thing, my mother... - Right, to be upset.

- To be upset with me. - Yeah.

- I ordered a dozen clams. No, no, oysters, oysters.

- I don't really tell my mother anything, do you?

- No. I don't tell my mother anything.

- I don't tell her anything. - I keep her in the dark.

She's not one to keep asking me that way. She likes it.

Although I did have to call her when I got arrested, that's for sure.

'cause I knew she was gonna find out about that.

- Oh, that's... Yeah. - My mother, she's just looking for the best for me,

but she'll say things that she wants me to do, little things.

- Like, give us an example. - Today... this is symbolic.

- What'd she say? - And it might sound crazy to you guys,

but my mother was very specific about not wanting me to have my hair curled today for the show.

- What? - I know. She told me.

- We had this big fight this morning about all this

frizzy stuff I don't like, so...

- She was very specific. - So controlling!

- We got in, like, a whole argument about it,

but not, like, in a bad way. More like, she was like,

"you know, but you just look more beautiful with straight hair,"

and the whole thing, blah, blah, blah.

over, like, the way I wore my hair,

but we're talking about, like, life... Big life sh...

- I wanted to wear my hair a certain... - Sure.

- Oh, definitely. At the same time, what do you also get for it?

- No, I'm not doing it anymore. - I don't need everyone's advice always.

I can also have an outsider to make my decision. - Make your own decision.

- Right. - I might have to remove my brain with this knife.

but I still have to move forward... - Hold it.

- ...And be like, I'm ok with, like, making these decisions.

the respect that she deserves.

- I honestly just can't believe that everything me and her have been through,

we're still not in a place of understanding.

There is still conflict with me and her.

I still do not feel any kind of approval.

I only feel judgment from her. - Well,

that's what parents do.

- what are you wearing, by the way?

- Well, that's what I was gonna grab.

- Oh, ok, good. - So I'm wearing...

I think I'm gonna wear this one.

I'm wearing sonja's design. - Of course you are.

- I think I'm gonna wear this one. That's more me.

Sonja was kind enough to send

all the ladies options to wear to her show,

and I was lucky enough to get a very cool,

sort of liza minnelli-esque jacket.

Yeah, her stuff is very fashionable. I can work with it.

- How's john? - John's good,

but you know, john never misses the opportunity

to make... - To... it up?

- ...To make a bad decision. - Oh, god, what has he done now?

- He just doesn't... You know, he just doesn't think sometimes.

- With you, or about work or life or what?

- With... With me.

I feel like john sometimes makes lifestyle choices

that he knows I don't like.

And he did it to me the other night.

He wanted to go to this event that we were invited to, but I didn't want to go.

Just too much, too many people, and he went.

- On his own? - Yeah.

What happened to you last night? You disappeared.

- No. - Yeah, no, 'cause you gave...

You know what he did? - No, honey,

let's focus on the beautiful bride.

- Like he's sneaking out to do it, even though he's like,

he's like, "but I didn't. You said you didn't want to go, so I didn't..."

but we're in a relationship for seven and a half years.

It just... It... Kind of the answer is like,

of course, I don't want to go either, right?

That doesn't make me feel good.

That doesn't give me the sense of well-being and love.

What's out there that you're missing?

Because clearly, if you're not home with me,

you're not happy with me.

Some people were there saying, "wait a second.

We just saw john and didn't see you."

I'm sort of at a point in my life where it's weird

that people know where my boyfriend of seven and a half years... I'm being told,

you know what I'm saying? - That's the bit where I find it

actually kind of... - And it's not jealousy.

It's not anything... - It just feels

a bit disrespectful that... - Yes.

- I am completely transparent as a person, and I don't hide secrets.

It's not that I'm worried about him going out because he's doing something naughty.

It's the non-transparency which runs deeper with me.

But that's why sometimes I think the relationship gets stunted.

It's like, "fine, go off and do it on your own, then."

it's like I haven't returned phone calls for two days.

- Oh, you haven't. - No.

- all right, we're off. Go ahead, j.

Oh, yeah! Oh, there's another stop over here.

Oh, that's my old one! That's the one we roll up and put in the basement.

All right, let's do a selfie over here.

Phyllis diller. Remember her? You know phyllis diller, with the hair?

All right, you want to put down the celebrity names,

so you go ahead and do that.

let me see what I can do. Hold on. This... this is really...

I cannot deal with static all over the flowers.

Fashion people are coming. We need beautiful, gorgeous flowers.

Even stems would be better. It would be artistic.

It would be a statement. This is an embarrassment.

Can we put all the whites together and all the pinks together?

- Sure. Let's... let's... let's... Let's... let's get it done.

It's been booked for months and months and months.

Not now. Bye, love you.

Who's doing the flowers? - That guy and, uh...

I don't know. That's it.

to actually have gotten that she was trying to purposely make leah feel stupid.

I think that she maybe thought that leah would look cool.

Are you bringing this is? - Yeah, I'm gonna bring this in.

I'm gonna be the girl who... - Can I not? Can I, like, walk by?

She doesn't have a designer. It's just merchandise that's already made.

So I... I... I don't know. Whatever sonja wants,

it's fine by me. I support her.

Like an orange juice or cranberry juice.

Any juice that you have.

No. Ok. - Oh, do it with the sangria.

They say, "don't let 'em see you sweat."

right now, I don't care what they see me do.

I don't care what I look like, what I'm wearing.

I need to make sure my guests are taken care of because they come first.

That's why we're having the show to say thank you to supporters

and to get what? Good press. Not bad press.

I'm gonna start the new glass. - Here. No, no, no. Me too.

And then put a splash of this in it.

I'm a mixologist now.

If I don't go to a party, I don't see john.
