Project Runway...

For your next challenge

I want you to design

a head-to-toe look

from my line.

i>This looks, already, very nice.

This a challenge that I

want to come back and win.

I would like to see

two additional looks.

It's so much.

I'm gonna send all of you some help

Oh God.

Not again.

You're showing shock that I'm

still here.

Why, because you cheated?

I got here for a reason.

Designers, I hear that there

is an accusation about cheating.

A lot of the people

that have been sent home could

be a little bitter.

As far as I'm concerned, there

is no malfeasance.

It's behind us.

I think the clothes are...

exciting.

Andy...

Congratulations.

You are the winner of this

challenge.

Wow!

Thank you very much.

This looks like a pajama party.

Christopher...

I'm sorry. You're out.

I love you.

Bye.

Bye Christopher.

Look who we have here,

the final five.

This is Project Runway.

The winner of Project Runway

will receive $100,000 from

L'Oreal Paris to start their own

Marie Claire magazine,

a $50,000 technology suite from

HP and Intel to create their

vision and run their business,

Uh-oh.

Oh, no.

You are to meet Heidi on the

Project Runway 8x12
We're in a New York State of Mind
Original Air Date on October 14, 2010

Hi, everybody.

Designers: Hi.

I know that you just had an

elimination, but I know how much

you love surprises.

Good news for you.

We want you to relax tonight.

So I'm gonna send you to one of

the most spectacular places in

New York City.

What?

[Chuckles]

I don't believe her.

I know that there's a twist,

i know something's coming,

this is too good to be true.

Make sure that you recharge

because this is your last

challenge to wow us.

Good luck.

And I'll see you on the Runway.

Bye.

Sweet. Yes.

What?

Whoo!

We walk into this big ass

Presidential Suite.

Oh, my God.

Way, way cool.

Oh, my God.

It's kind of overwhelming and

it makes you realize we're

getting closer and closer to the

people that are gonna go to

Fashion Week.

Oh!

Let's do it.

>> Project Runway, top five.

Whoo!

This is that champagne toast

that we've been wanting to have

since the beginning of the

season.

How the hell did I get here?

Let's bust it out of the

[bleep] Park, you guys.

You guys, I'm so proud of all

of us.

I'm so happy to be here with you

all.

Yeah, what an experience.

Much love. Whoo!

Cheers, guys. Top five.

Final five.

It feels really good to have

made it this far.

But I just really wanna get to

Fashion Week.

Fashion Week is the essence of

why I am a Designer.

This is bonkers.

It is amazing.

Oh, my God, I'm gonna have a

cappuccino in the morning and

it's gonna be real.

I wouldn't be here with you guys

today if I wasn't supposed to

be here right now.

But I believe that's because I

set the intention to do what I

am passionate about for the rest

of my life.

Every one of us has our own

story and our own struggle to

get here.

But I feel like this has been a

crash course to getting to know

who you are and sticking by who

you are.

You really learn different

things here about what people

think about your stuff and who

would really wear it, and you

get surprised.

And it changes you.

You're like, wow.

What do I have to do to step it

up and make it better?

For me, it's made me a much

stronger person and a much

stronger Designer because I've

had to reach out in these

challenges and try things that

I've never done before.

I'm really proud of myself.

You should be.

You should be.

A lot of these people here

have done work for people and

had people wear their stuff.

But I haven't had that, so I

think that that would really be

cool if I won, because it would

really show, like, Holy [Bleep],

she won and she's only 21?

That's insane.

Yeah, it's all about design.

That's what we're here to do.

But for me, it's been a journey

to set me free.

And I really feel like somebody

is guiding me and that I--

you know, that I'm supposed to

be here.

It's what it's all about.

Good morning, Designers.

It is a huge honor for me to

introduce you to our very, very

special guest, Mayor Bloomberg.

Hi, guys.

Designers: Hi.

It's Mayor Bloomberg.

This is so cool.

'Cause I just wanna go run up

to him and be like, I love New

York!

I think it's really cool that

Mayor Bloomberg is the

ambassador for this challenge.

I think it says a lot about what

New York thinks about Project

Runway.

For your final challenge,

you get to draw inspiration from

something that really means the

most to me:

New York City itself.

You can choose anything you

want.

I'm offering you the entire

city.

Whatever you pick, make it work.

[Laughs]

So, Designers, for this

challenge, you will be choosing

a New York City landmark to

serve as the inspiration for

your final Runway look.

Because this is our last

challenge.

This challenge determines who

among you will go on to

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week and

you'll have the biggest budget

of the season.

You will have $500.

This is a sign that we really

want you to wow us with this

design work.

Let me wish you all good

luck, and we will look forward

to seeing almost all of you back

here for Fashion Week, the first

ever at Lincoln Center.

Mayor Bloomberg, thank you so

very, very much.

Happy to do it.

Thank you so much.

I'm going to send you up to

your location to get inspired to

design, and then I'm going to

meet you at Mood in two hours,

all right?

So run off.

[Foghorn blows]

As soon as I heard that we

get to go anywhere in the city,

i was already thinking Statue of

Liberty.

And I'm just getting so

inspired.

She stands there in all her

glory, looking over this city in

this beautiful draped dress.

So I wanna do something that's

structured, but yet still has

that drapey effect to it.

[Foghorn blows]

So I choose the Brooklyn

Bridge.

I get inspired by how the bridge

is constructed, so I start

sketching out ideas.

I jot notes, do visuals, certain

shapes that I've seen.

It was really awesome.

I've chosen the Brooklyn

Bridge also.

I'm looking through all the

different bars and the cables.

And they kind of overlay.

I'm kind of looking at them

through a 2-d perspective so it

creates kind of an optical

illusion, and it looks like

optical art to me.

Let's just get busy already.

I wanted to go to Central

Park because what I was just

naturally drawn to were these

organic lines that I saw when I

looked at the pathways in the

park or the branches in

the sunlight.

This is the last challenge and I

just want to do a dress.

I decided to go to the Lower

East Side.

I feel a little underinspired

for this challenge.

We're supposed to design a piece

inspired by something in New

York City.

But I don't wanna do something

that's literal.

I want it to remind me of the

type of woman that I design for,

And I just want
to make something that's me

All right, Designers, you

have 45 minutes to shop,

starting now.

Beautiful.

Yes, so I'll hold on to that,

those two.

What I know I need is the

options of texture.

I'm gonna pull from different

textiles to really bring my

design together.

Hmm...

Can I put that over there too?

Okay.

I got some really pretty fabrics

today that are reminiscent of

the textures that I saw in the

brick buildings in the lower

east side.

I'm gonna do a leather jacket.

It's gonna be cropped.

Okay.

Can we take this one out

real quick?

I gotta say, I still don't know

exactly what I'm looking for.

What are you designing?

I'm doing a take on the

statue of liberty dress.

Very beautiful draping.

There's no need for you to be

literal to your inspiration.

Uh-huh.

If you want to be, that's

your decision.

Once I find that fabric, I'll

know which one I'm looking for.

All right.

The clock is ticking.

Okay.

April.

Yes?

Given your palette of the

season, you may want to think

about just a little bit of

surprise.

Okay. No, I have--

i have something in mind.

Okay, good.

I do, I promise.

All right.

The judges have really liked

me playing with color and

different textiles and patterns.

So I really want to incorporate

that in this design.

[Chuckles]

I hope it turns out pretty.

Designers, this is our last

trip to Mood.

Bye, Swatch.

Let's go back to the workroom,

everybody.

Thank you, Mood.

Thank you.

Oh.

It's like a ghost town.

All right, Designers, you

have until 11:00 tonight and all

day tomorrow for this challenge.

And I just want to underscore

the fact that at least one of

you will be going home after

this challenge.

All right?

This final challenge can make

or break me.

Bring it on.

I'm ready to go.

So design hard,

conceptualize thoughtfully and

strategically, and execute

superbly, because I know you all

have it in you.

The stress, I think it's on

me more than anyone else in the

room because I've been in the

bottom the past three

challenges, so I gotta step it

up some y, someh to

guarantee me a spot in Fashion

Week.

I will see you tomorrow

morning.

Okay?

Good night.

Bye, everybody.

Designers: Bye.

Ladies, this is not a hobby.

I'm just gonna say that now.

There's only five of us and

everyone is just being really

careful about where we go with

this because any little slight

mistake will send you home.

I feel like I need to come up

with something that needs to

really give them a good visual

of what kind of crazy [Bleep] I

can bring to the Runway.

And I really wanna go out with a

bang.

Yeah, star shape.

I will stand by you because you

are pretty to me.

I really, really am pushing hard

for my damn vision to be

executed.

It looks like the curtains in

my house.

Michael C. reminds me a lot of

what I was like five years ago.

I could only make dresses.

That was the only thing I could

make.

And I also replicated a lot of

the things that I liked because

that was the only way I could

learn.

Awesome.

This is a seizure waiting to

happen.

At this point, you know, I'm

pretty exhausted.

I have to take a break.

Mondo, is he--

he's just taking a break?

I don't know, I think he's

taking a break.

I don't know if it's a dumb

thing to take a nap at this

point.

Coming up on Project Runway:

I just wanna leave.

This looks like a tortured

mess.

Everyone is on the edge.

That's an eye-catcher for all

the wrong reasons.

You guys, did Mondo

accidentally fall asleep, or did

he say he was gonna take a nap?

He's taking a nap.

He's sleeping.

Hey, sleepy.

Good morning.

Oh, wow, it's already--

[chuckles]

Oh, I slept a lot longer than I

thought.

All this pressure challenge

after challenge has really hit

me today, and I'm kind of

worried that I'm not gonna make

it through.

What's the story with the

sequins?

If I just go over them with 

machine, I have to make sure

that they're all facing the

right way.

If this was ever a challenge

to show them cuckoo...

Cuckoo couture girl?

Cuckoo couture.

Are you making another dress?

It's my backup plan thing,

yeah, mm-hmm.

Maybe.

So I sketched this dress when

I'm at the statue of liberty,

and I really do love it.

But I'm also thinking it might

be playing it too safe.

Just, I wanna get this cut out

just in case I hate that

tomorrow.

This is the last challenge

that's gonna qualify me to be

one of the people showing at

Fashion Week.

I'm trying to think of a way to

wow the judges.

I kind of like being here,

but mostly just wanna leave.

[All laugh]

Everyone is on the edge of

emotional recklessness

breakdown, "I'm gonna jump out

of my skin if I don't make it."

Oh, my God.

[Laughs]

Taliban chic, fool.

Oh, yeah.

This is why I'm getting a

rash.

This is my look for Runway

couture.

Nina Garcia'll be like, I love

what you did with the

accessories.

I want one, Michael.

And Michael Kors'll be like,

when Diane Von Furstenberg first

moved here, this is what she was

envisioning.

Nothing else.

Oh, my God, you sound just

like him.

I mean, when I wanna go out,

I just wanna put that on with a

pair of heels and call it a day.

Ooh, I like it.

Do you really?

I do think it looks a little

madam.

Madam?

I think it looks a little

like the mistress you'd pay a

high, high price for to have her

spank you.

Come on. No?

I think Andy tends to like it

just this side of slut, and I

think he nailed that.

I translated Central Park

to...

Mai Ling, the head waitress at

this teahouse who does happy

endings.

I gave birth to a chinese

prostitute.

And that's really making me

nervous.

This is inspired by Central Park

'cause I saw a really fierce

Asian lady who looked like she

was gonna be good in bed.

It could go very elegant or it

uld go very trashy.

I don't think you have to

start over.

But I know that I need to

just stick to something.

Otherwise, I'm gonna find myself

not finishing it.

[Car horn honking]

Wow, what a long day.

Oh...

Andy was going nuts.

I think I did him a

disservice, but a nice service

as well telling him that his

dress looked like a madam.

How do you feel about

Gretchen saying that it was a--

well, now that's all I can

think about.

I just saw this much of

yours, but I like where you're

going.

Thanks.

There's a lot of work.

I am exhausted.

You're telling me, I took an

hour and a half nap in the

Designer lounge.

I wanted to come and wake you

up.

I asked everyone if you said

anything, like, if you were

gonna take a nap or if you fell

asleep.

Do you think they're gonna

tell you that?

They wanted me to sleep till

11:00.

Well, tomorrow morning, I know

that I have a lot of work ahead

of me to complete this garment.

I have not been in this position

at any point in any of the

challenges.

So I'm going to go say a prayer.

Good night.

Good night.

It's our last day in the

workroom, ♪ bow, bow ♪

I've gone back and forth with

changing this dress, but I am

gonna stand by it.

All this pleating represents

the base of the Statue of

Liberty, like, the bricks.

I definitely don't want the

judges to say that I tried to

play it safe.

So I wanna do something to show,

you know, that I can be

meticulous.

I don't know.

I'm just all kind of [Bleep] Up

in the head right now.

Michael C. is doing Michael

C., although I don't see what

Michael C. Is doing because I

haven't seen the dress yet.

Where's the dress?

[Clears throat]

Are you deciding to conquer

that...Sequins, Mondo?

I'm going for it.

I'm scared to cut that sequin

fabric.

I don't think I can do sequins.

No?

It's so hard.

Bummer, I love that color.

The sequins just didn't work

out.

I could still show my point of

view just using black and white.

I think it'll still be cute.

Whatever.

I'm hoping for the best.

Perfect.

Oh, [Bleep], I forgot the other

piece.

How is everyone?

I've missed you.

I'm going to check in with you.

[Indistinct]

How is Mondo?

Well, I went to the Brooklyn

Bridge.

And when I got this shot, it

really inspired me 'cause there

was a black car, a white car,

and then this cab.

This was my cab.

I was being very ambitious

'cause I've never worked with

sequins before in my life.

And it turned out to be a lot.

You're right.

You know?

'Cause that's an eye-catcher,

and it may be an eye-catcher for

all the wrong reasons.

So I'm gonna go with this.

So you're getting rid of

this.

Yes, I'm getting rid of this.

Let's do that.

I'm in total support of that.

And then in the design, you

can see in the style lines,

I kind of did the arc--

yeah, but it's subtle.

It's not as though it's literal.

Right.

With Mondo, I expected in the

beginning to see, like, clorox

bleached denim and chains,

whips, and handcuffs.

But I totally misjudged him.

I have never seen more

creativity in someone as I do in

Mondo.

And so classy.

Move forward.

Thank you, Tim.

Thank you, Mondo.

Thank you.

How's April?

I went to the Brooklyn

Bridge, so I wanted to do

something about incorporating

the architecture.

So I chose to do kind of like an

abstract coat dress.

This is a complete enclosed

sleeve.

And then this sleeve over here,

it comes off and then opens--

it's opened here, and then it's

a tube sleeve.

April is doing April, and I

feel like it can be translated

as kind of costume-y.

There'll be a zipper here and

then here's a cutout, and then a

zipper here.

Where I believe you've shown

profound strengths as a Designer

is in your ability to step back

and look at your work and edit.

Just stay away from going too

far.

The one person that I really

respect here is Tim.

And I think that he believes in

me.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Very exciting.

How's Michael?

I started out with this

silhouette.

There was elements of it that I

really liked.

It came from my inspiration.

Do you have an image?

I do.

My inspiration from that was the

looseness and the drapiness of

her dress.

But the drape is here.

You know, it has all this

fabric.

You need to look around the

room at what the other Designers

are doing and ask yourself

whether you're being as

ambitious as they are.

That's why I was going with

this structured piece and then

incorporate the flowiness with

this, and it looked so

overworked.

Michael.

And I was tossing and turning

between both dress ideas.

I'm telling you, this looks

like a tortured mess.

I totally went the opposite

direction of my inspiration for

the Statue of Liberty.

I wasn't being true to myself.

Do not lose your voice.

I don't know what I'm

thinking right now.

So I don't know what to do.

Just make it work.

Coming up on Project Runway:

Be careful that she not look

like one of The Real Housewives

of New Jersey.

How do you do this?

He's either an idiot savant

or just an idiot.

I am so excited about this

leather jacket.

I hope I don't [Bleep] It up.

[Car horn honks]

And how's Andy?

Hi, Tim. I'm doing well.

I've got a lot done.

It's a cocktail dress.

I mean, this certainly looks

like you.

Yes.

Andy's execution is amazing.

But I feel like he could be

playing it a little safe and

that he could be slapped on the

wrist for that.

And then on the back, I have

the cutout.

Yeah.

And I'm doing these shapes

all in sheer.

Be careful that it not go

slutty and that she not look

like one of The Real Housewives

of New Jersey.

[Giggles]

It's all in the manner of

presentation.

All right, Andy.

Thank you, Tim.

Thank you.

Thank God I'm having a real

critique with Tim today.

Lord knows I need it.

So how's Gretchen?

I really like doing my

feminine, bohemian thing, but in

a way that's very urban.

And so I went to the Lower East

Side.

I really like the brick because

it's really worn brick.

It's not fresh and new.

The brick color is in reference

to the brick, and then I've

lined it...

Gretchen is one of the more

exhausted Designers at this

point.

And her piece is definitely

looking that way.

I'd rather present something

that's really true to, like, how

I dress.

I would reference your

customer.

My customer wears this.

Mm-hmm.

As opposed to yourself.

I know Tim and I have very

different aesthetics.

But I think what makes him great

is that Tim can see the

potential in any one of us.

Thank you, I really appreciate

it.

It's been an honor to get to

know you.

I really appreciate it.

And I really have grown to love

Tim in a way I wasn't expecting.

Carry on.

Okay.

Thank you.

All right, Designers.

Your models will come in very

shortly.

Use this time with them well

because it's the only fitting

you'll have until the Runway

tomorrow.

Thank you.

All right, work hard.

I know you will.

I'm getting a little

emotional.

You know how, like, sometimes

you get, like...

[Feigns crying]

[Laughs]

I totally went the opposite

direction of my inspiration for

the Statue of Liberty.

I wasn't even being true to

myself.

So I think I'm just gonna maybe

stay true to my original design

and just do what I want to do.

I'm getting nervous.

I should have thought of how

I was gonna fini it before I

actually did it.

Hello.

Both: Hi.

Dominatrix?

We're teetering on it.

We're not gonna go completely

there.

I think seeing it on the form,

I was thinking Chinese hooker.

When I saw it on Lenka, I saw

seriously beautiful edgy woman.

Designers, you all know Peter

Butler, consulting hair stylist

for Garnier.

Peter is here to consutt with

all of you.

So as you all know, the

judges have had a lot of

comments, some good and not so

good, about your models' styling

on the Runway.

Since the judges have asked you

to really wow them this time for

the final challenge, I'm here to

help you out to make sure that

your models' hairstyle

complements your total look.

My inspiration is the Statue

of Liberty.

So with the hair, I really want

it to go very editorial and High

Fashion.

This is a little full control

hair spray that I would work

through the hair to kind of just

manipulate it.

Oh, yes, I love that already.

High five.

All right.

Since the dress is so strong,

I want to style it strong as

well.

I'm gonna use the sleek &

shine, and what we can do is

have it really straight but also

really graphic.

Are you happy?

It's beautiful. I am.

I went to the Lower East Side

and I don't want her to look

like done.

I want her to look very natural.

What we'll do is we'll just

go over it with the brilliantine

shine.

It'll just give it that nice

sparkle and just look really

fresh and healthy and dramatic.

So we love that.

We love that.

Yeah.

So I felt to keep it High

Fashion, maybe just go with a

really high ponytail.

Texture, and the color's

really beautiful.

I love it. I'm excited.

What I wanna do with her hair

is kind of like a twist on the

'60s, but very modern and a

little bit more disheveled.

I'm gonna spray in some

volumizing hair spray to kind of

help keep it stable.

So that's your profile.

I love it.

Yeah.

Yes, you get to wear a dress

today.

No, this is not going anywhere

near it.

It will be either cufflinks

or, like, full-length sleeve.

I'm so happy doing my model

fitting.

Cassie looks absolutely stunning

in this ess.

I would date her.

Without a doubt.

Take her out and be a cheap

date.

She'd get some.

Well, I was trying to do

sequins, but it just did not

work out.

The model fitting sucks because

i don't have a dress to fit on

Tina Marie.

It's just so much piece work.

I'm, like, oh, God.

It's a little fitted cocktail

dress, so I really need to have

a good fit.

I wish I had something for you

to try on because it's a little

scary.

So I think I could be in

trouble.

I just need to finish this.

I am so excited about this

leather jacket.

I hope I don't [Bleep] It up.

I'm doing the best I can and I

feel like it is a little

different than who I am.

But I don't think that's always

a bad thing.

All right.

Pull it together, Jones.

This one's for the big time.

Towards the end of the night,

i started making this beautiful

basket weave silk shrug thing by

hand.

How do you do this?

You have to do weaving by hand?

What are you gonna do?

Put that through a machine

that's gonna weave that for you?

[Laughs] No.

I really think that this could

be the missing element to my wow

factor in my dress.

Too crazy, or it could be

genius.

Or it could be genius.

That's the thing we never

know.

That's the thing with Mike C.

He's either an idiot savant or

just an idiot.

You never know until you see it

on the Runway.

Coming up on Project Runway:

If we make it to Fashion

Week, a lot of stuff changes.

I have to make it to Fashion

Week.

This is it.

This is the moment.

I'm freaking out.

I feel like I deserve it.

I feel like I'm ready.

It's the last day, Andy.

And we'll find out who's

going to Fashion Week today.

I know, this is--

it's scary.

We're so close, but everything

is kind of riding on what

happens today.

If we make it to Fashion

Week, a lot of stuff changes.

A lot of things can happen.

To have made it this far and,

you know, be 21, I think it's

quite an accomplishment.

Uh-huh.

I feel like I need to make it

to Fashion Week, you know?

I feel the same way.

Ready?

Totally.

Let's go.

Let's do this.

You ready, boo boo?

Let's get out of here.

[Siren blaring]

♪ The last day, bow, wow ♪

♪ the last day ♪

this last day is bittersweet.

It's great to finally get

through all the challenges.

But no one really wants to talk

with each other right now.

We are all sweating this one

out.

Come on, models.

Good morning, everyone.

Good morning, Tim.

It's our last Runway show.

Yeah.

I'm about to send in your

models.

You'll have an hour to send them

to the L'Oreal Paris makeup room

and the Garnier Hair Salon.

And then you'll be styling them

for the Runway.

Use the piperlime accessory

wall more thoughtfully and

strategically than you ever have

in the past, all right?

I'm gonna send in your models.

Thank you, everyone.

Thank you, Tim.

Get undressed, girl.

'Cause I have a lot of fitting

to do on this thing.

I make your boobs look so

good.

I know.

[Laughs]

When I look at April's piece,

I think it's a little witchy.

Okay, it looks great, though.

Let's try it on.

Let me see.

Tried the shrug on Cassie.

No.

So...

[Pops lips] It's gone.

I'm thinking of doing it...

I don't like it.

I love it.

Feel like it's a lot.

Turn this way.

Yeah.

No, I don't like it.

I hope the hem is okay.

The last model fitting is

exactly that.

It is a major fitting, and I'm

busting ass because I have a lot

of work to do on this garment.

And I'm freaking out.

Hi, Gretchen.

Hi. How's it going?

Last one.

No. Say it ain't so.

So what I'd like on the eyes,

I'd like an all-over matte kind

of, like, rosy terra cotta

color.

I want a black smokey eye

like you've never seen before.

I want it smoked out and very

black.

High Fashion editorial bitch.

Excellent.

Yeah.

Hug.

Hug.

I had my consultation with

Peter.

I wanted to do a really high

ponytail with extensions in it.

Okay, so just high on the

top.

And then, like, wrapped into,

like, a cinnamon bun, yeah.

Okay.

Go over her ears just a

little bit.

Tied at the back, all right?

Cool.

And we're just gonna slick it

to her head like it almost gets

glued down.

And then just lots of shine.

Okay.

Could you imagine if we just

did the same dress in black?

Kind of did. Just gathered.

[Mutters]

Let's see it.

Where's your gown, girl?

In the sewing room.

I gotta go steam it.

If I didn't get to go to Fashion

Week after all of these

challenges one after the other--

you can just kick your leg out.

This would be really sad.

I have to make it to Fashion

Week.

I've grown so much in the

past weeks that I've been here.

It's been a real roller coaster,

but I've developed more of a

confidence in who I am and what

I do.

So I hope that the judges want

to see a collection from me.

I wanna show my collection at

Fashion Week so that I can show

my family, people in the

industry, who I am.

And I feel like I'm ready.

Yeah, so just have fun with

it.

I'm going to.

It's been such a long

journey.

This is the end of the road for

this part of Project Runway.

But I know if I make it to

Fashion Week, it's gonna be a

lot more work once I get home.

And I plan on it.

I just feel vulnerable.

Yeah.

You know?

Totally.

It's just weird.

I walked into Project Runway

with desperation.

I came here on the last little

bit of gas that I had.

This is, like, years of

sacrifice and overdrawn bank

accounts.

This is just, like, it.

Designers and models, are you

ready?

Because this is it.

This is the moment.

Please follow me down to the

Runway.

Yay.

I'm excited.

Oh, thank you.

Come on, everyone.

Thank you. That's a record.

Coming up on Project Runway:

I'm so confused.

What happened?

I was not impressed with your

look.

This is a missed opportunity.

I think you've really lost

your steam.

Hello.

Designers: Hi.

Welcome to the Runway.

As you know in Fashion, one day

you're in, and the next day,

you're out.

There are five you here.

And after tonight, there will be

less than five.

For this final challenge,

we asked you to blow us away.

The Mayor offered up all of New

York City for you to use as your

inspiration.

You had $500 and two days to put

your look together.

Okay, let's meet the judges.

First, we have top American

Designer, Michael Kors.

Hey, guys.

Fashion director for Marie

Claire magazine, Nina Garcia.

Hi, everyone.

And Project Runway Season

Four winner, Christian Siriano.

Hi.

We will score your designs as

they come down the Runway.

Okay, let's start the show.

looking for.

I'm glad I stayed true to myself

because the dress coming down

the Runway looks absolutely

amazing.

Yes.

milana really rocks my look

I think she really embodies a

different type of customer,

and I really like that.

And the skirt looks really

pretty, the jacket looks nice.

I don't think it looks super

Runway, but I went to the Lower

East Side, so I wanted it to

look like a real girl walking

down the street.

♪ ♪

watching my look come down

the Runway, I am so happy with

it.

It's striking without being in

It looks wet, which I think is

so interesting.

And you can see the design

I feel like I have a really

strong look that is me, and I

feel really good about it.

this one look could send me

to Fashion Week.

It's flirty and sassy, sexy,

this point.

Thank you.

very avant-garde.

It's kind of fulfilling

everything I wanted to show, and

that's what makes me happy about

sending it on the Runway.

[suspenseful music]

♪ ♪

we scored your designs as

they came down the Runway.

Some of you will compete at new

York Fashion Week.

And one or more of you will not.

Mondo.

Tell us about your inspiration

and your look.

Well, I went to the Brooklyn

Bridge.

I was kneeling down and looking

through the fence and through

the cables, and it created an

optical illusion.

So I'm just really inspired by

op art.

You've proved that color is

not your crutch.

The patent leather thing is

truly, you know, it's, like,

I don't know, your label should

be Mondo in patent leather.

But I liked that you dealt with

something architectural, you

dealt with neutral color, but

still, it's full of joy and full

of Mondo.

Can we see the back?

I don't think Mondo has a

lack of ideas.

I feel like I have seen a range

from you.

This is a really phenomenal

dress.

Thank you so much.

I would have loved to see

something completely different.

Because I feel like I've seen

this houndstooth a few times

too.

I think it's a really chic

dress.

I love the mix of the textiles.

She's kind of, for me, a bit

more uptown than Brooklyn

Bridge-inspired, I don't know.

Andy.

I chose to go to Central

Park.

Wherever I was in the park,

I could never escape the city.

And so I kept the architectural

feel.

The last thing I'm getting,

quite frankly, is Central Park.

Am I getting Blade Runner, am I

getting a little Robert Palmer

video girl in the '80s?

This warrior woman, it doesn't

seem like the freshest look.

But that said, I think it's

beautifully crafted, it fits

fabulously.

I love that wet effect that

it has, with that matte and

shine.

I like the lines because I

think that they make her body

even better.

She likes the lines too.

[Giggles]

Can we see the back?

I mean, it's a perfect little

black dress for that edgy girl.

I really love this dress.

The seaming is really stunning.

I love that kind of weird

bracelet that she has.

Thank you.

So I like it.

Gretchen.

I went to the Lower East

Side.

I wanted to play with texture in

ways that I don't typically.

The jacket, these lines are from

bricks that kind of were, like,

the scaffolding on the

buildings.

I wanted to create a piece that

kind of replicated the essence

of the customer that would be

walking down the street there.

I'm so confused.

I just, I think you really lost

your steam.

I don't think it looks downtown,

I don't think it looks uptown,

I think it looks Midtown.

I don't think it has your vibe.

I think she looks kind of rock

and roll secretarial.

I'm confused too.

I feel like another Designer

took over your body.

What happened?

Um...

I'm tired and I do feel like

I've run out of steam a little

bit.

I want to get back to how I

design and what I design.

And for some reason, I'm just

kind of sick of the challenges,

and I guess it got the best of

me.

What do you mean by when you

say you're tired of the

challenges?

That the challenges are

crazy, and you have to, like,

edit yourself into fitting into

that cookie cutter.

But really, this challenge,

I felt like you guys had

freedom.

You could do whatever you wanted

to do.

I like that it's wearable.

I'm curious to know if that's

the idea that you would do in a

collection.

Would it be this world of

separates and just easy

dressing?

I'm not sure if that's what

you're thinking.

Yeah, I mean, you know, the

stuff I ke is like the stuff I

wear.

Can I see the back of the

jacket?

I mean, I think the jacket's

cool, but I think the blouse and

the skirt are a little bit

almost off the rack.

I still think it's wearable--

that's a great point.

But it's more about the

newness for me.

I think that you're better

than this.

I think that you're a better

Designer.

I was quite surprised when I saw

this one.

April.

My inspiration was the

Brooklyn Bridge.

And I wanted to take from the

Brooklyn Bridge the idea of

structure and fluidity because

of the water underneath.

The sameness is so numbing.

You have made a version of this

garment so many times, I can't

count.

There's never any joy in your

clothes.

And can I see the back of it,

please?

You know, and the asymmetry and

just the whole thing about it.

She's a pregnant witch.

I don't know what else to say.

Why did you not, like,

surprise us with some color?

Me as a Designer, I really

like the kind of drama and this

kind of dark elegance.

So I kind of am stuck in that--

but just even if you would

have just done another color.

But, like, when we say, "wow

us," just step outside your

comfort zone a little bit.

Push the envelope a little bit

so when it comes out, we're

like, oh, my God, who is this

next Designer?

Oh, my God.

She surprised us.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I think it has some beautiful

lines, especially from the back.

But it would be nice to just

change it up a little bit.

This is a missed opportunity,

to be honest with you.

I am not certain that you have

any range besides this.

I like the cut, I think it's

beautiful.

I think it's interesting.

She kind of looks like you,

which I think is kind of maybe

you're that girl and that's what

you would wear.

And I think that there could be

something further in a

colltion in a story with this

world.

Michael.

My inspiration was from the

Statue of Liberty.

I didn't really wanna do a dress

that would be, like, a replica.

I wanted to do--do it in black.

And something that will just

basically be a showstopper.

You wanted a showstopper,

and you got a showstopper.

It is beautifully cut,

beautifully draped.

Is it chiffon or is it jersey?

I don't know what it is.

It's mystery cloth.

I saw it and I just really

liked it.

Is it stretchy, or no?

Yeah, it has give.

Oh, so it's jersey.

Yeah, it's, like, a jersey of

some sort.

It's, like, a beautiful

chiffon jersey.

I was very impressed with the

back.

It just fits wonderfully.

It moved beautifully.

It has this really effortless

kind of old Hollywood glamorous

kind of beauty to it.

My only thing was is that the

slit was a bit high in the

front.

I actually loved the super

high slit.

I would love to wear this dress

somewhere.

I think that many women would

want to wear this dress.

Michael, why should you go to

Fashion Week?

I hope that you see that I've

tried my best to show you a

range.

Just wanna be truthful and

honest with you guys and just

tell you how much I would love

to go in it.

It's a lot.

What other two Designers do

you think should go to Fashion

Week with you?

Andy, his work is impeccable.

Also Mondo.

I know he stays true to himself

as a Designer.

So I'd have to say Andy and

Mondo.

Gretchen.

For any Designer to clearly

articulate their point of view,

a full show gives them the

opportunity to paint that

picture.

And I'd love to show you

something that would make you

think twice about me.

What other two Designers do

you think should go with you to

Fashion Week?

Mondo.

I think he has grown and

listened to you, and I think the

evolution will create a very

tailored but playful show that

would be fun for me to see.

I'm really torn between Andy and

April because I think they're

both very talented.

But because of April's youth,

I feel like I'd like to see her

go to see what she would do.

Andy.

I have taken risks.

I've kept your interests.

I would like to continue that

with a showcase at Fashion Week.

And which two Designers do

you think should go with you?

This is a really tough

question that I knew was coming.

I would definitely love to see a

collection from Mondo.

I'm also torn between Gretchen

and April.

But I'm going to...

Have to go with April as my

choice.

Mondo.

You know, this is the biggest

opportunity I've ever been

given, and I feel like I

approach it in a different way.

I have fun creating, and I'm

just ready to push forward and

be at Fashion Week.

What two Designers should go

with you?

Well, this is really hard.

I've really been impressed...

By Michael Costello.

Michael, after I worked with him

on the challenge where we had a

sample maker, people were really

pissed at him.

And I can be honest.

When I pulled his name and he

was my sample maker, I was

pissed.

But we put that aside and we

worked on a professional level.

He listens and he's not afraid

to grow.

Well, the second one I would

have to say...

I'm torn between April and Andy

because they're both artists.

Well, I wish I could pick both

of them because, you know,

they're young and they're just

starting out and this

opportunity is huge.

But if I did have to pick one,

I would pick April.

April.

Once I get out of this

bubble and have time to really

open myself up, I could really

put forth a beautiful

collection.

I promise not to use all black,

so.

And who do you think should

go with you and why?

I think that Mondo definitely

deserves to go to Fashion Week.

The second person, I think that

Gretchen really deserves to go

to Fashion Week as well.

Okay, we have heard what you

had to say.

We're gonna have a long chat.

And then we'll bring you back

out.

You can leave the Runway.

Thank you.

That was stressful6

I wasn't totally in love with

my look and I knew that.

If I'm supposed to go, I'll go.

If I'm not supposed to go,

I'm gonna get there very soon on

my own.

I could produce a beautiful

collection if they give me a

chance, but if they don't wanna

give me a chance, somebody else

will, you know?

Absolutely.

Please, if it's hurting you

on any level, whatever the

judges said to you, don't let

that affect you.

Don't let it hit you that hard.

You know, it's just really

tough.

I just hated that we had to

pick, because it's very, very

tough and, like, I don't want

anyone to take anything

personally.

It was really hard to say who

I wanted because I know we've

all worked very, very, very

hard.

And for me to choose two people,

it was like I was killing

somebody's dream, because we all

have dreams.

Man, you know, I really do wish

that all five of us would be

able to go, you know?

I didn't wanna play God.

That's not my choice.

And I had a choice to take two

people with me, and I didn't

wanna be given that choice.

Mm-hmm, I feel the same way.

'Cause it's scary, you know?

It's really scary.

Let's start with Mondo.

To me, it's obvious that

Mondo really steps up to the

plate.

He does.

It was a great-looking dress.

He's one of the rare

Designers that loves to use

color.

He loves prints and mixing

patterns.

He has attention to detail.

I think that his clothes are

show worthy and wearable at the

same time.

That's something that, you know,

is very rare to find.

I don't know.

I've only seen one look,

so maybe taste because of the

styling, I thought was a bit...

His own, you mean?

[Laughs] His...

You mean his own, or from the

model?

The model, I thought she was,

you know.

So it's that dress, which is

pretty.

And then with the styling,

I don't know.

Let's talk about Andy.

Andy is very talented.

He also knows how to craft

things that are actually very

complicated to get the cutouts

and the piecing.

But I am worried that we're

gonna be stuck in this super

bitch warrior mode.

Dominatrix-y.

The dominatrix thing is--

that's what he loves.

Yeah.

But, you know, hopefully,

the warrior woman is not his

only, you know, statement.

Do you think he did something

very safe today?

I do.

Beautifully done.

I loved that dress.

Gorgeous.

But simple black--

it's a very safe thing to do.

Because we always love black.

You give us a little bit of jazz

with it, we're happy.

I mean, let's face it.

There is something about him

and that fabric manipulation

that I really believe in.

He can push himself to be

creative and put on a show.

Let's talk about Michael.

To me, hands down, that was

the dress or garment of the

Runway today.

It was exciting, but wearable.

And when I see that kind of

sophistication, this guy has the

ability to do it.

This was a phenomenally

beautiful dress in its

simplicity, in its detail.

What was interesting about

Michael's when he was explaining

it, what I--

the one thing I thought was

interesting is that he didn't

know what fabric he used.

I mean, that's a weird--

not to understand.

So for me, maybe he made this

beautiful dress which was the

best piece, but maybe it was a

bit by accident?

I don't know.

He might not know what the

fabric is--

but he knows what it does?

He knows what it does and he

knows what to do with it.

He didn't try to make a pantsuit

out of that Jersey.

Right. Right.

You know, he let the fabric

speak.

Who cares if he knows what

the fabric is?

As long as you're attracted to

it, he makes beautiful things.

And it was gorgeous.

That's what ultimately is the

most important thing.

What do you think about April's?

I can see a witch with a

broomstick.

It is always the same damn

dress.

She's got an eye for where to

place the cutouts, but I don't

know.

I mean, to me, it's a witch

who's nine months pregnant.

It's a very tough dress to

wear.

Like that--

yeah, that customer, I don't

know if it exists.

You know, she's been doing

black.

She's been doing black dresses--

and here's the problem that I

have.

April has really not taken any

chances.

Where everybody else has put

themselves out there on the

line, she hasn't.

But I think--

I don't know, design-wise and

idea-wise, could be interesting.

And then there's Gretchen.

I mean, she has lost her steam

as well.

I mean, this was unwearable,

what she presented today.

No, in fact, I think it was

too wearable.

No.

Like who, where?

It was 8th Avenue Street

market--

yeah, that's what it looked

like to me.

With the skirt.

I mean--

you know all those vendors?

Like the rack of skirts.

I mean, I think she wants to

make what I like to call smart

clothes.

And I think she's a very smart

girl.

She knows who her girl is, and

then all of a sudden today, she

threw that out the window.

Would it be interesting to

see?

Because to me, with this

challenge, even though it wasn't

good, she's so different.

It could be an interesting show

in that--in that world.

I think she's lost her

confidence.

Yeah.

Or maybe she ran out of

ideas too.

But is the taste there?

The taste is there, definitely.

I agree.

So we've made our decision?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay, let's bring them back

out.

Good luck.

Good luck to you.

Good luck.

Good luck, guys.

You are all very talented.

But unfortunately, all of you

cannot compete at Mercedes Benz

Fashion Week.

One of you will be out tonight.

You made this all very

difficult for us today.

But unfortunately, one of you

will be out tonight.

The remaining four of you will

be creating a collection to show

at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week.

But only three of you will

compete as finalists.

Michael.

You have had some very high and

very low points throughout the

season.

But today was a major high.

We all loved your dress.

It was a true showstopper.

It was effortless and

sophisticated.

And we could clearly see your

inspiration.

Congratulations, you're in.

You'll be coming back to New

York.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

You can leave the Runway.

I'm really excited to leave

the Runway knowing that you're

still in it, but it's still a

competition.

[Sighs]

[Laughs] Oh, my God.

Back to my humble self again.

Come off the ground, Michael.

You're still not there, but you

know, if it's God's will, he'll

take you there.

But at least you'll get to make

a collection.

Whoa.

Mondo, we really liked what

you did.

Your dress showcased your

aesthetic fantastically.

With the right mix of textiles

and patterns, your dress was

playful and unique.

Congratulations, you're in.

You can leave the Runway.

Thank you so much.

See you soon.

[Sniffling] God.

I've allowed myself to believe

that I am able to accomplish

this and that I do deserve to be

here.

I couldn't be happier.

I couldn't be more proud of

where I am.

I just have to work hard, stay

true to myself, and I'm sure

that it's all gonna pay off.

[Cries with joy] Hey.

Hi.

[Continues crying]

Oh, my God, Michael.

So proud of you.

So, so proud of you.

I'm so pr--

I'm so shocked.

I didn't think I was gonna make

it this far.

You're good, boy.

You're good.

Andy.

Like many of your fellow

Designers, you've had some high

highs and low lows.

But today, you did a good job.

Your perfect little black dress

had some great details.

But we do worry about the

already played out warrior woman

aesthetic...

But think you deserve a chance

to surprise us at Fashion Week.

Congratulations. You're in.

You can leave the Runway.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Good job.

I'm just really thankful.

We've come to the final round,

and it's just been so long of a

process.

I know that it's been a roller

coaster for me.

There have been a few times that

I could have been out.

But I think those were the times

that I really learned a lot

about myself.

We're still in the game, you

guys.

Yep. One more.

So no more warrior woman?

I didn't even reference her for,

like, five challenges.

[Giggles]

April.

Gretchen.

One of you will be out.

April.

Your designs have run the gamut

throughout the season.

You too have had some major ups

and downs.

Your dress had some very

interesting design elements.

U have a very clear point of

view.

But we also feel like we've seen

this from you many, many, many

times before.

Gretchen.

You are the only Designer here

today that created separates.

It was refreshing to see someone

design wearable sportswear.

But you lost your way.

You went to the Lower East Side,

yet your look was not cool at

all.

It looked cheap, overly

commercial, and your standout

styling skills deserted you.

Gretchen.

[Suspenseful music]

♪ ♪

you're in.

[Softly] Thank you.

April, I'm sorry, that means

you're out.

Gretchen, you can leave the

Runway.

Thank you very much.

It's been a pleasure.

Good job.

The challenge of coming on

Project Runway may not be over.

You're in?

I'm in.

Congratulations, girl.

Congratulations.

Whew.

At the same time, it's really

exciting to have the opportunity

to go home and make the

collection I've been dreaming

about nightly, and I think I

really need a high-end Fashion

show to show who I am.

I'm gonna produce something

you'll all be amazed by.

I'm just really relieved that...

They gave me the second chances

that each of you guys got.

[Sighs] Mwah.

Auf wiedersehen.

Mwah.

All the best to you.

Thank you. Thanks, guys.

I'm really surprised that they

won't give me a shot at Fashion

Week because I feel like I am a

strong Designer.

I'm just, like, kind of shocked,

I guess, I don't know.

[Sighs]

Well, it's been fun.

But...

It doesn't end here, you know

that.

No, of course not.

You accomplished so much

already.

I know. I know I have.

You should be proud.

I know.

My time will come.

That takes some balls, girl.

[Laughter]

Hi, Tim.

April.

I'm so glad to see you.

I hope you're as proud of

what you've achieved as I am.

And you're our youngest

Designer.

This is just the threshold of a

staggering career for you.

And look where you are.

We're gonna miss you.

I have to send you to the

workroom to pick up your space.

Bye, Tim. Mwah, mwah.

Love you.

Bye, guys.

I love you.

Good luck, okay?

Bye, April.

Make big mama proud.

Drink one for me.

I'm proud of how far I've

gone, that's for sure.

It just sucks that I had to be

the one to go right before

Fashion Week.

You know, it's just, like,

almost there--

bam, not there.

It really is bittersweet,

you know?

But I am looking ahead, and I

don't ever look back.

I think I'll be okay, for sure.

You're the final four.

I know. How crazy.

But it's not over yet.

No.

'Cause you're all competing

for three spaces.

Next time on Project Runway:

Before you know it, I'm gonna

be knocking on your door to

check up on your collection.

Michael.

How are you?

It's like design diarrhea!

You could have a truly hot mess.

It says teens pajamas tonight.

You know what I'm gonna say

about this.

Four of you will be competing

for three spaces.

This is my dream.

This is my future.

I--I have to be there.

And...

Oh, my God.

What?

It's always going to be evil,

no matter what's in it.

You might be out today.

That's a real big gamble.

This is the do or die moment.
