[Heidi] Previously on Project Runway...
Are you ready for your next challenge?
You are in Paris, capital of couture.
You have to make the couture gown.
In two days.
I mean, a couture gown in, what, 20 hours?
I think poor Kayne is gonna have his head
handed to him on a "reedeeculous" plate tomorrow.
Who cares if he gets hurt?
Vincent, are you gluing?
Yes, Tim.
To your success.
All of you, cheers.
[techno music playing]
[Michael Kors] If you shortened it
and you gave her a feather duster,
she looks like a French maid.
Jeffrey, you're the winner of this challenge.
[Jeffrey] Thank you.
[Heidi] We thought it was very fresh, hip couture.
-Congratulations. -Wow.
[Heidi] Vincent, you're out.
-Auf Wiedersehen, Vincent. -And to you as well.
[Heidi] The winner of Project Runway
will receive a spread in ELLE magazine,
a mentorship with INC International Concepts Design,
a 2007 Saturn Sky Roadster,
and $100,000 to start their own line
furnished by TRESemmé Professional Hair Care.
This is Project Runway.
Fashion is my life.
I'm going to win.
[Heidi] Fifteen contestants.
I'm fabulously glamorous.
I've got mad skills.
But only one can be the winner.
I'm better than they are.
You gotta be kidding me.
[laughing]
For these 15 contestants,
Project Runway is the chance of a lifetime.
[cheerful music playing]
Vincent is gone.
[Jeffrey] Vincent Libretti.
The end of an era.
[Kayne] He's gonna be missed.
Final five.
Dude, I can't believe it. I cannot believe.
Goin' down.
[Kayne] We finally got to the final five.
I think we are the absolute most talented.
I think we deserve to be in the top five.
[Laura] That was close.
'Cause it was almost me.
-That would never have been you. -No, no, no.
Vincent was always in the losers g*ng.
See, y'all kept-- y'all kept saying that.
My review from the judges was scathing
during the couture show.
But I'm just so proud to have made it
to this small a number.
Just two away from Bryant Park.
I need to--to plow through to the final three.
All right, let's go.
[Jeffrey] Let's go. I'm ready to go.
Let's get this show on the road.
[tense music playing]
[Heidi] Hello.
[designers] Hi, Heidi.
Are you ready for your next challenge?
Absolutely.
Too bad.
You're not going to get it on the runway.
L'Oréal Paris is hosting a little party for you tonight.
And I'll tell you about your challenge there.
The only thing I'll say is that I've invited some very...
special guests.
And they will be an important part
of this challenge.
[Jeffrey] I have mixed emotions about the L'Oréal party
because it's gonna be a trap.
It's not gonna be a party.
At all.
It's never a [bleep] party.
I'll see you there.
[Uli] All righty.
[energetic techno music playing]
[Kayne] We ended up showing up
at this really kind of chic club
called the Pink Elephant.
And it was very, very cool on the inside.
Kids, we have to have a toast.
All right.
-[cork pops] -Here we go.
[Michael Knight] We're poppin' bottles.
You know, just livin' it up,
waitin' to receive our next challenge.
[designers] Cheers.
Cheers to the top five.
Top five. Here we go.
Bryant Park, here we come.
[Jeffrey] Was it special "guest,"
singular, or "guests" plural?
[Kayne] Guestseses.
We thought maybe it'd be some celebrity
that needed an outfit designed.
Or some rock band,
because she did use "guests," plural.
Destiny's Child. Destiny's Child.
[Uli] Okay, bring it on.
I'm ready, I'm ready.
[Heidi] Hello.
[designers] Hi, Heidi.
Can I have you guys gather around?
All right, before I tell you
about your next challenge,
I want to introduce our special guests.
And there are two of them.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Heidi] Okay, so let's welcome our first guest.
[laughter]
Hey!
Whoa.
[applauding]
A real person.
Oh, my buddies.
[Vincent] Oh, you guys are so nice. All right.
[Michael Knight imitates drumroll]
[imitates cymbal crash]
Vincent.
And we're all lookin' like--
He was eliminated.
What the hell is goin' on?
We knew right away
that something was really wrong here.
Okay, what's up? What are we doing?
-I'm not telling you anything. -Okay.
[Heidi] Because I wanna get our second guest
out as well.
Hi!
Hi. [laughs nervously]
[Heidi] Angela.
-Yes? -How are you?
-I'm confused. -Good.
[Jeffrey] And the second special guest was Angela.
And I say "special"...
if you know what I mean.
[Heidi] We told you from the beginning of the competition
that there were other benefits
to winning challenges.
This is it.
Angela won the Macy's challenge.
And Vincent won the everyday woman challenge.
So we're giving them a chance to come back.
What?!
[Heidi] We decided to give everyone who won a challenge
a second chance.
Kayne. Uli.
Michael. Jeffrey.
Each of you won a challenge
and would've been given this same opportunity
if you had been sent home.
Oh, my God.
[Heidi] I said it was getting harder, no?
[Kayne] Are you [bleep] kidding me?
These b*tches get to come back?
It's like c*ck.
You step on 'em once, and they just
still keep crawling around.
[Uli] It was pretty shocking to see both of them coming back.
The party was over at that point.
Vincent and Angela...
You must win this next challenge to stay.
Otherwise, you automatically go home.
So that means all seven of you
will compete in the next challenge.
But don't get too excited,
because three of you will get eliminated.
[designers protesting]
[Angela] Oh, my God.
It's really great.
This is so gravy
that all you can do is run with it
in a positive-- in a positive direction.
Oh, my God!
[Vincent] I am excited about still having
the possibility to be in that final show.
I hope that, uh, I don't get
thrown off the runway twice.
Okay, why don't you two join your fellow designers again?
[Kayne] Oh, my God.
For your next challenge, you will be designing
a c*ck party outfit,
using only black and white fabric.
[Laura] Wow.
[Kayne] Awesome.
[Heidi] You also will be using your models
from the last challenge.
Vincent and Angela, you two will have
your models that you had when you were eliminated.
They're here, so I'm going to leave
and let you get reacquainted.
And I'll see you on the runway.
Bye.
[Angela] Bye, Heidi. Thank you.
[Michael Knight] Trying to hang out, but still,
I could tell on everybody's mind is still
Angela and Vincent were both back.
So a total of three people are going.
That [bleep] bananas.
That's really, like, whoa.
It's good. 'Cause I have another shot.
Yeah.
And it's good.
If I go before Angela, it's gonna be embarrassing.
-You're not going. -I'm not going anywhere.
I'm not going anywhere.
[Jeffrey] Whatever. I don't have to like it.
And the good news is, uh...
To getting back in the game.
To getting back in the game.
[chatter and clinking glasses]
[tabla drum beats]
Are you excited to be back, Vincent?
Well, yeah, I'm excited to make this today.
This little c*ck number.
I didn't care about coming back.
Now I care.
I'm like, I really wanna be in the final three.
Oh, really?
-Yeah. -I disagree.
It's not like you did that win completely on your own.
Well, in the-- in the fashion world,
the design is what matters, not the construction.
I'm gonna put rosettes all over these pants.
What if these just become the buttons?
I can deal with that.
Love that.
I was on that team, so I can say for certain
that her team members carried a hell of a lot of weight
in that challenge for her.
[Angela] Everybody's gonna be thinking that.
Because I know that people like Jeffrey don't like me.
People will be thinking that. People will be thinking that.
Ready to go to Parsons?
[Jeffrey] Let's go.
[laughter]
[Tim] Good morning, designers.
[designers] Morning, Tim.
[Tim] May I ask you to gather round, please?
I want to welcome back Angela and Vincent.
We want to insure
that the right three people
are those who are standing for the final three.
So you're just going to have to each prove
how capable you are of going
to Olympus Fashion Week.
Okay?
For this challenge, you will be designing
a c*ck party outfit, using black and white fabric.
Because you're each using the same color palette,
this challenge is really about the design
and silhouette of your look.
This challenge is also about the makeup and styling
of your model.
You will have 15 minutes to sketch.
You have a budget of $100.
And you have one day to pull this together.
Angela.
Do we have to use black and white,
or can we choose one or the other?
[Tim] You have to use black and white.
-[Angela] Okay. -[Tim] All right?
I'll be back in 15 minutes.
[upbeat music playing]
[Kayne] My design for this challenge
is going to be a very edited c*ck dress.
Very simple in the front.
And then crazy sexy in the back.
I was trying to come up with sort of
a youthful silhouette.
So I did sort of a baby-doll dress, with a--
a low, square neckline.
I'm definitely not feeling as sure
as I have in the past
that I can get to the final three.
I'm definitely starting to doubt myself
a little more now.
[Tim] Okay.
Designers, are you ready?
Before we leave, there is one other criterion
to this challenge.
The fabric that you purchase at Mood--
you must use all of it.
[Vincent] Right before we went shopping,
and he said to us that we have to use
every piece of fabric we buy, which is insane.
[Tim] All of it must go into this look.
You mean even the scraps?
Mm-hmm.
[Laura] It's gonna be crucial
that we not buy an extra inch of fabric.
'Cause that's just gonna be more fabric
that somehow you have to work into the design.
What the [bleep]?
[Heidi] Coming up on Project Runway...
[Jeffrey] Probably more than anyone,
I never, ever wanted to see Angela again.
[Vincent] The more that things progress,
the more you see the true nature of people.
It's getting a little too ugly.
[upbeat music playing]
[Kayne] You know what, let's just keep this.
I think I love this.
We have to make a c*ck outfit.
And we could only use black or white fabric.
Let's just say 30, and I'll eat the rest.
[laughs]
We have to use all of our fabric for the challenge.
And it's a little bit stressful to hear that,
because we want to buy a little extra
in case we make any mistakes,
to make sure we don't run out of fabric, and--
Just it was gonna mean that we had to be really smart
about how much fabric we were buying.
Yeah, and a yard of this. Do this first.
I looked at all the sketches,
and I picked the fabric
and figured in between there
and coming back that I would come up
with something that I could put together.
How wide is this?
I need to change this to ivory.
[Uli] I found a great print.
I'm gonna do a hippie,
beach party c*ck dress.
[Tim] Okay, everybody, let's go.
[Kayne] Buenos días.
Let's get busy.
Heidi said it was gonna get hard,
and boy, was she not kidding.
Because we've allowed two h*ifers to come back.
Three designers will go home.
[Michael Knight] It was a simple, um, c*ck dress.
Off-the-shoulder, asymmetrical deal
with a cummerbund belt to it.
A matte jersey 'cause it's easy to work with.
And I know I can make a great dress out of it.
[Angela] I'm doing a leather shrug
with an Edwardian collar,
lined in off-white charmeuse.
I think that I'm taking some risks
that are admirable.
But I'm still retaining my fingerprint.
[Jeffrey] I had this idea for a dress
that was a longer dress.
So I-- I turned it into a mini
to make it hot and sexy, you know,
for a little c*ck party.
I wanna have a third win
just to be able to say, "I've got a third win."
And also because I know
that my winning the last challenge
[bleep] pissed everybody off.
-How much did they give you? -A yard and a half.
Oh, oh, my God.
That's not cool.
When I got back in, I realized
I overbought fabric.
And I'm like, "Oh, great."
There's no way-- no way I can eat this up.
That's not right.
It's not good.
Wow, I'm screwed on this one.
So it kinda bummed me big.
I hope I can get it together.
Come up with something else to do
with that excessive fabric.
But we're gonna have to wait and see.
[driving techno music playing]
[Kayne] Okay.
[Jeffrey] Probably more than anyone,
never, ever,
ever, ever, ever, ever, ever
wanted to see Angela again.
[Jeffrey laughs]
[Uli] Jeffrey and Uli, you're out.
[laughter]
[Vincent] The more that things progress,
the more you see the true nature of people.
[Laura] Yeah.
[Vincent] And it's-- it's getting a little too ugly,
uh, for my taste.
But you don't feel like we're treating you badly
because you're back, do you?
-I mean-- -Um, I feel like people--
I'm seeing people's colors as the thing goes on,
and I'm not likin' what I'm seeing.
But I only have one more of these.
If I stay, another one. And that's fine.
The mood in the workspace today is kinda sticky.
I just gotta, uh, do my thing.
I want to get to the end,
because my heart is into this.
All right, what's goin' on?
Are you scared?
For me?
Wow. What part?
Um...
Because it's all black.
And it's mini.
And the back is out.
And then you're addin' a black patent leather boot.
It's startin' to look like something else.
When I started looking at Kayne's garment,
it just started to look a little...
like...a working girl.
And I didn't even have to say that's what it looked like.
He just knew what I meant.
Actually, if you take that belt off,
and all this--
This looks really designer and clean.
[Kayne] Just look at this for a second
and tell me your honest opinion.
[Michael Knight] It cheapens your dress.
I'm really trying to just make sure
that he's not going overboard.
[Kayne] Okay. I got it under control.
-[Michael Knight] You got it? -No.
[laughs]
Designers, can I have your attention
for just a moment, please?
You are going to have half an hour
with your models for a preliminary fitting.
And I'm going to be sending the models in right away.
Okay.
Put your hand on your waist like that for me.
And it'll be flowy and loose on the body.
-Okay. -This is for the whole dress.
I'd call it more of a shrug because it's backless.
It goes up like that.
Those can come off.
I'm, like, exhausted.
I thought I'd gotten to a certain point
in the competition,
and then they brought people back.
[sighs]
Yeah.
-Like? -Like the...
[Laura] My model seemed a little unsure
about what I was doing.
I think she was as shocked as I was,
you know, to get slammed
on the runway during the couture challenge.
And she was trying to be helpful
about designing a more youthful look.
-I know, but we ha-- -I mean, instead of white.
I know, I know. I had to use the white.
I'm just gonna, um, do what I do best
from here on out and see how far that gets me.
I have no idea how it's gonna be received
by the judges.
I'm worried about what's gonna happen tomorrow.
[Heidi] Coming up on Project Runway...
[Tim] All right, here's my question.
Where's the white fabric?
-Does this count as a fabric? -Oh, Jesus.
[upbeat music playing]
[Tim] Hi, everybody.
Can I ask you to gather round, please?
I am delighted to welcome Collier Strong,
consulting makeup artist for L'Oréal Paris.
Collier is here to talk about your makeup
and styling for this challenge.
Collier?
So, as you know,
since it's, um, a black-and-white challenge,
the only use of color can be
on the skin and with the makeup.
We can really create the perfect accessory
for the look that you're designing.
Be thinking about it, and then I'll meet with you
so we can, um, kind of brainstorm
and come up with a great look.
And we're going to begin with Jeffrey.
All right.
-Smoky and dramatic in the eyes. -[Collier] Okay.
All right, make her face
kind of luminescent,
and then you just have these dark eyes
that are just really sexy.
I kind of love this.
Isn't that beautiful? Look at that.
-It's like baby-doll. -And look--exactly.
[Laura] Yeah, 'cause it's a baby-doll shape dress.
Love that. Create, like, this graphic shape
coming from underneath the eye,
instead of on top of it.
I like it.
What we could do is actually
line her eyes
with a color instead of with black.
So modern. So hip, so hip.
What about doing the smoky eye
in a dark purple, as opposed to black?
I'm all about it.
Very kind of '70s, beach chic.
[Uli] Because the whole feeling of the dress
will be kind of '70s.
First thing that came to my mind
is, like, this Chinese opera,
which is, like, you know,
like a little lip right there.
[Angela] You nailed it. I'm very happy.
-All right, bye. -Thanks.
Bye, Collier.
-So, Uli, how are you? -[Uli] I'm good.
This is beautiful.
I love your frog here.
You have a lot of fabric, though.
What are you thinking?
Put it all together
and make, like, little ba*ls, and make--
-Like a necklace? -Yes.
Just don't have it be a distraction from the dress.
-Yeah. -Scale's really important here.
So how's Vincent?
[Vincent] I went way too much yardage.
[Tim] What ideas do you have?
I thought maybe a shawl might be just too simple.
Well, it maybe,
but you have to use that fabric.
-And the clock's ticking. -Oh, I know that. I know.
So how are you doing?
-Really good. -Okay.
[Jeffrey] This is the dress.
And I'm making some tights out of this.
It looks kinda like leather,
just sorta rock-n-roll, shiny.
Does it dress it down?
Hmm.
[Tim] So how's Kayne?
-Good. How are you, sir? -I'm good.
All right, here's my question,
Where's the white? Where's the white fabric?
Does this count as a fabric?
[Tim] Oh, Jesus.
I'd call it a trim.
But if it's all that you have,
it's "make it work" time.
From where I stand,
-you didn't address the white.
-'Kay. -Okay.
I'm bankin' on Jesus at this point.
All right. How's Michael?
[Michael Knight] I'm doin' well.
Just trying to give it a 3-D effect.
How are you treating this edge?
I don't know.
I guess I could turn it over or somethin'.
-'Cause it looks unfinished. -Okay.
I'm looking at how translucent it is.
What are you doing about that issue?
Um...
-Make it work. -[Michael Knight] Okay.
-Okay? -All righty.
-Great. -Thanks.
Angela.
This fits my model perfectly.
-She's smaller than this. -All right.
The dress I have cut out.
The sides, I was gonna put in,
um, ruching with elastic.
[Tim] Given the amount of time we have
for this challenge, this is really ambitious.
Just--for the moment, only do what you have to do.
-How are you doing? -Um--
I'm a little, uh--
bit of a broken spirit after the last challenge.
You know, I can't exhaust myself
trying to design for the Olsen twins.
-No, I know. -I think what I've decided
is I have to just be happy with what I send out.
[Tim] Yeah.
I guess my self-doubt has come about
because I was so positive
going into that last challenge.
And I just got blind-sided out of nowhere.
So that really sort of shook me up.
I wanted to make a change in my life,
a big career change.
But now I'm just too tired.
It's just--it's just getting exhausting.
I trust you're gonna figure this out.
-Yeah. -And you will.
[sighs]
I do like the dress I'm making.
And hopefully, I'll be successful.
But now I'm just trying to get through tomorrow.
[Tim] You have two hours tonight
and some time tomorrow,
but it's gonna be an early runway show.
Have a good night. I'll see you tomorrow.
Okay. Bye-bye.
[Vincent] We had to use every bit of fabric.
So I was forced to kind of do this little scarf,
just to eat the fabric up.
I had no choice.
[techno music playing]
[Laura] Yesterday, I was ready to go home.
But I got a video message from my husband.
It just sort of gave me a whole new renewed spirit.
Maybe if two challenges seems too far to go,
if I can get through this one,
maybe one challenge.
Maybe that would seem doable.
[Uli] I think today is the biggest,
the most exciting elimination day.
And three of us are gonna go home,
so it's gonna be crazy.
[Kayne] I think I definitely dropped the ball
a little bit on this challenge.
But I still rocked it out, and I love the dress.
All right, kids, let's go to Parsons.
Good morning, designers.
[designers] Morning.
[Tim] I will be sending in the models soon.
You'll have two hours to work with them.
You'll be sending them downstairs
to the L'Oréal Paris makeup room
to work with Collier Strong.
You'll be sending them to the TRESemmé hair salon.
You'll be using the Macy's accessory wall.
You must use the scraps of your fabric.
Anything that's a postcard size or bigger
needs to be used.
So pieces like this.
-[Tim] That counts. -Okay.
[Tim] All right?
Vincent.
Jia has had an accident.
Is she okay?
[Tim] She will be. All right?
I was really upset about Jia, you know.
It's like, "Oh, man, this is not good."
So I'm hoping that she'd be all right.
We have Javi for you.
She'll be coming in.
So you really have to make it work.
Who's Javi?
[Jeffrey] That's the girl I had in the beginning.
[Vincent] I got no seam allowance.
It's over if she don't work.
Give this everything you possibly can.
Because again, three of you will be going home.
I'm sending in the models.
Wow, I love that.
Yeah, I think I like that.
[Uli] I don't wanna go home yet.
And, yeah, there's a lot of things
going on in my head right now.
We're good, we're good, we're good, we're good.
We're gonna win again.
I feel I definitely had one of the stronger pieces
in--in the room.
This is a fresh idea about a c*ck dress.
That's very sexy. Let me even.
[Kayne] I thought Jeffrey's outfit
looked very costumey and cheap.
It's not something that, if I was a girl,
I would wear to a c*ck party.
[Laura] I definitely designed the silhouette
for a different person completely.
I know I like my dress,
but I have no idea how it's gonna be received
by the judges.
Oh, no, I'm [bleep].
That's not good.
We both looked at each other and go, "Uh-oh."
We managed to get the dress on her,
but she's a lot bigger in the hip.
She broke the zipper.
And that--that sucks.
Let me see somethin'.
I hope that I don't get thrown off the runway twice.
Because I'd like to go to the final three.
[Collier] That blue that we talked about will be amazing.
Just want her to look young.
We were gonna go with sort of a fresh, young pink
to sort of counteract the fact that my dresses
tend to be a little mature.
I'm not getting you? No.
-You would yell. -No, no, no.
Yeah.
[Vincent] While she was getting her hair done,
I was sewing the zipper in
on the dress, you know, 'cause I didn't have much time.
[whispers] Damn.
Designers, models.
We have five minutes.
I just am going to walk around
and see the condition of these scraps.
They're all right here.
Okay.
-Kayne? -Yes, sir.
Scraps?
They're all crammed into the bag.
-Yes. -Okay.
-They're all in here. -This is great.
It's a little heavy.
-Angela? -Here are the scraps.
And I'm stuffing them in the purse to give the purse volume.
All right. It's all you can do.
Okay, everybody. Follow me.
Let's go.
That's everybody.
[Heidi] Coming up on Project Runway...
I don't like this. I think the proportion is wrong.
[Michael Kors] There's something about this that doesn't look...
expensive.
[tense music playing]
Hello.
[designers] Hello.
Welcome to the runway.
As you know, in fashion, one day you're in,
and the next day you're out.
But in fashion,
sometimes you get a second chance.
Vincent.
Angela.
Each of you once won a challenge.
So we brought you back.
The only way for you to avoid elimination again
is to win this challenge.
But either way, three of you will be going home tonight.
Your challenge was to design an outfit
for a c*ck party,
using only black and white fabric.
We asked you to use all of the fabric
that you purchased in the final look.
We gave you $100,
one day to put it together,
and the services of Collier Strong,
consulting makeup artist for L'Oréal Paris.
Let's introduce the judges.
First, we have top American designer Michael Kors.
Hey, guys.
[designers] Hi, Michael.
Nina Garcia, fashion director of ELLE magazine.
[designers] Hello.
And our very special guest, designer Zac Posen.
-Thank you for having me. -Hello.
We'll score your designs as they come down the runway.
One of you will be named the winner.
And three of you will be out.
Let's start the show.
[upbeat music playing]
[Angela] I loved the shrug.
I just absolutely love that silhouette.
And the dress-- I felt good about it.
I thought that there might be a chance that I could win.
I was very happy with how everything turned out.
[Kayne] It was a lot of black,
but I thought Amanda rocked it out
and looked so good.
I felt pretty strong that, uh, you know,
having a little bit of white was enough.
[Laura] It was just so Josephine Baker.
I could just see it, you know.
Paris, 1920s, with the silhouette
of the feathers and the little dress.
I loved the dress.
But I was just never sure what the judges
are gonna say anymore.
[Michael Knight] My dress definitely looked good
on the runway, because it was the only
white dress basically there.
Black people just look good in white.
It just looks great off our skin. I loved it.
It looked exactly what I wanted it to look.
[Jeffrey] I was really happy with the dress
and the thigh-high leggings
and thought the entire outfit
looked really sexy on Marilinda.
It's edgy, it's young.
It's totally hip.
[Uli] The dress showed that it was moving,
it was floaty, it was fun,
it was young, it was sexy.
And that's what I wanted to show.
And I was pretty happy with it.
[Vincent] Javi, she over-pumped the dress.
Which also made it look shorter.
But this was a golden opportunity for me
and I took advantage of it.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Heidi] We've scored your designs.
We want to ask all of you some questions.
So let's bring out your models.
Michael, I want to start with you.
I chose white.
Because it was a little simple,
I wanted to do a cummerbund-type belt.
And I cut out different floral shapes of it.
I really wanted something really edgy,
sexy, and sensual.
Zac.
I think it's incredibly, um, chic.
And--and simple.
The asymmetry is really nice. It's very flattering.
I think you did an excellent job.
[Nina] As always, I like your total look.
The earrings, the bag,
everything is helping your design.
It looks cool. It looks very modern.
I'm curious. Is that exactly--
You had the right amount of fabric?
I just lined the inside of the purse.
I just kept lining and kept lining it.
-What do you mean? -Oh, really?
[Michael Knight] On the inside of the purse,
it's lined with the white.
Really impeccable.
-Thank you. -Vincent,
tell us about your dress.
Okay, we worked with cottons.
Basically, matte and shine.
It's a polished sateen with a soft eyelet.
I did all this by hand, so it took
quite a lot of time.
I don't like this.
I think the proportion is wrong.
The length of that dress makes it look--
-Cheapish. -Cheap.
When it should be a c*ck dress
and look chic.
The cape...
is really problematic with the dress to me.
It was the-- the extra material.
Can you hold up the cape
over the black skirt?
And lengthen it? Like, extend the skirt down
right above her knee.
[Heidi] It just would've been a bit more elegant.
[Zac] And so much chicer.
I love short clothes, but this is better.
It's--it's elegant.
Uli, tell us about your dress.
As I couldn't choose crazy colors,
I went for the print.
And I made a dress which is kind of
a fun c*ck party dress.
Probably goes more in the warmer environment,
like Miami
or St. Tropez.
And I stuffed all the extra fabric
basically in a stocking
and made a necklace out of it.
I think it's cute.
Is the necklace attached to the dress?
No, it's extra, so I can take it off.
[Michael Kors] The necklace drives me crazy.
I know. I had to do something.
They look like pool floats.
[Nina] I think the sleeves are a little long.
And I think there's--
The thing is, I just wanted them to kind of end
-on the same level, but-- -[Nina] Yeah.
But I find that heavy when it ends on the same level.
[Michael Kors] I want it taller, leaner, longer.
-More delicate. -Yeah, fragile.
Angela. Tell us about your dress.
Well, I just really loved the high neckline
and the grace of the proportion.
And I think it's very, very modern.
But very, very Edwardian.
I made the dress a little bit shorter
and made it bare in the back.
And usually, when I'm merchandising handbags,
I always put muslin in there.
So the extra is in the handbag.
You know, you want to make it inspirational,
but also, you need to make it realistic.
-It's a little overwhelming. -[Michael Kors] Costumey.
[judges] Costumey.
And the fabrication I-- to me--
and the back fabrication didn't feel rich.
-Did you make that bag? -No, I didn't.
Let's have a look in there.
[Nina] It's just a frame bag.
You don't really need to stuff this.
It was going to look fine without.
[Heidi] That to me is just like,
"Let me just shove it in there,
and hopefully, no one sees it," kind of thing.
Oh.
-Jeffrey. -Yes.
Tell us about your outfit.
When I heard c*ck party,
the first thing I thought of
were the last couple that I had gone to in L.A.
I just wanted to capture that spirit
with--with my dress.
I made the leggings,
and then all my extra fabric went into the belt.
[Michael Kors] I think young and edgy can still be chic.
And there's something about this
that doesn't look expensive.
It looks... a little cheap to me.
I did decidedly dress it down.
I think it can go more rock-n-roll
and more elegant.
-It can be both. -[Zac] Yeah.
You can turn up the volume, I guess.
[Zac] I think it can be edgier.
It would be interesting to see you
do something else, Jeffrey, besides this, you know,
hard rock, kind of L.A. look.
Laura.
Tell us about your c*ck dress.
I used the c*ck aspect to, um,
add this detail to the bottom.
I had to make a little bag.
I was able to use all my fabric.
I have nothing--
nothing left over.
This was absolutely it.
I think it's fun, but youthful.
Michael.
It's chic. It's perfectly made.
But so much more youthful
than where you've been going.
And also nice to see a young silhouette from you.
How great.
I mean, I think that's terrific.
I worked really hard on this.
[Zac] It shows. You can bring this to a store,
and a store would pick this up
and sell this.
I love the sparkles, too,
and I like that it's not all over the place.
-[Zac] It works. -[Michael Kors] It works.
It's another point of view that we had not seen from you.
It's adorable.
Thank you.
Kayne.
Tell us about your dress.
I wanted to show you guys that I can edit
and give you something to be a versatile designer.
And, um, I really wanted to do kind of all black
with just little touches of white.
The front is so elegant,
and it's like Jekyll and Hyde for me
in the back because when I--
Can you turn?
You're highlighting it with this white ribbon
that doesn't look
sophisticated to me or sexy.
Why did you choose this white fabric?
Because my other trims and things just didn't work.
[Nina] I think it's great that you tried to do something
moving away from what you usually do.
But, um, I'm not crazy about it.
That you didn't use black and white.
Your white is so minimal.
[Heidi] Okay, we've heard what you had to say.
We'll have a little chat, and I'm gonna call you back.
You can leave the runway. Thank you.
Angela.
The vampire, like, ruffled shrug in vinyl.
[Heidi] Yeah, because there are some
nice-looking boleros out there.
[Zac] Sure, that are romantic and antique-feeling.
[Heidi] Yeah, but they know what they're doing
when they do them.
And what did you think of Michael's dress?
I've gotta say, every time,
this guy really knows about head-to-toe presentation.
The right hair, the right shoe, the right bag,
the cool belt, the right proportion.
What about Vincent?
No sense of proportion.
They all have a little extra fabric.
He had that whole shawl, where he could have
just extended it.
[Michael Kors] I would've rather seen that
than that wacky--
Yeah, there was no excuse for that length.
He had the fabric, clearly.
Jeffrey.
When I first saw this walking down the runway,
I was like, "Wow, this is loud."
[Nina] I didn't--you know,
maybe bringing a luxury element
might be interesting.
I keep getting Gwen Stefani
over and over and over from him.
I'd like to see him stretch it.
How 'bout Uli?
I like the ease of the dress.
I like the ease of the construction of it.
What else are we gonna see from her?
So far, that's just the dress,
and the dress in different-- you know, versions.
[Michael Kors] Always. Every time, she's said,
[imitating Uli] "Well, I live in ze--
"I live in hot weather.
I love hot weather." I got it, you know?
Kayne.
I have to say, I think he listened
-and he tried. -Yeah.
But there's still a long way to go.
He's learning who he is.
At least it didn't look like
she was on her way to an Elvis convention.
But the reality is, you've gotta deal
with the project at hand.
Laura.
She maintained her own point of view
but still moved it forward.
[Zac] It looked rich.
[Michael Kors] Talk about $100.
This time, she designed for a woman besides herself.
So we've made our decision.
Let's bring them back out.
[tense music playing]
[Heidi] One of you will be named the winner,
and three of you
will be out.
One of you will be named the winner,
and three of you will be out.
Let's start with the winner.
Congratulations...
Laura.
[Laura whispering] Yes.
[Heidi] We loved your dress.
We thought you did a fantastic job.
-Congratulations. -Great. Thank you.
[Heidi] Unfortunately, you will not have immunity
for the next challenge
because it's getting harder every time.
-You can leave the runway. -Thank you.
-Congratulations. -Thanks, honey.
I really went from, like,
the lowest low to the highest high.
I was ready to go home,
and I feel like I can do this now.
I'm ready again.
Angela.
We believe in your talent.
And we just didn't see it tonight.
I'm sorry. You're out.
You can leave the runway. Auf Wiedersehen.
[Angela] It has been extraordinary.
And I loved and hated every minute of it.
And I am ready, willing, and able
to become part of the fashion community.
Vincent.
We also gave you a second chance.
But I'm sorry. You're out.
Auf Wiedersehen.
[Vincent] I've been making beautiful music all along.
There's no doubt, you know.
And I'll make beautiful music the rest of my life.
And I do it so damn well.
It's a gift.
Michael.
You're in. You can leave the runway.
Thank you.
Yes.
[Heidi] Uli.
You're in. You can leave the runway.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
[laughing]
[Heidi] Kayne.
Jeffrey.
One of you will be out.
Kayne, this challenge was about black and white.
And you only gave us half.
You've stretched yourself,
but we all have serious questions
about your taste level.
Jeffrey.
We felt your outfit looked cheap.
We keep seeing the same thing from you.
All edge.
But not much elegance.
Kayne.
[suspenseful music playing]
You're out.
That means, Jeffrey, you're in.
You can leave the runway.
[whispering] All right, man.
Kick a*s.
[Uli]
Oh, it'll never happen again.
Thank you so much for this opportunity.
Auf Wiedersehen.
Auf Wiedersehen.
Thank you. Thank you all.
I love making clothing.
I don't wanna be a seamstress all of my life,
and I would love to have my own line
of evening wear and c*ck wear.
Now there's four.
First time.
[Jeffrey] It's been an honor to work with you.
Okay, everybody.
Kayne, we have to send you upstairs to clean up your space,
-okay? -Okay. Thank you so much, Tim.
But we're gonna miss you so much.
-Thank you. -You're just a great sport
and a great team player.
[Uli] Our sunshine.
Yeah, our sunshine.
[Kayne] I feel like I've shown the world
what I can do.
And, you know, they've seen my vulnerability,
but they've also seen my talent.
I'm okay with having all of my dirty laundry
aired on national television.
I just want everybody to know that I'm not really a b*tch.
I just play one on TV.
And I am ready to, uh, gear my career
into, you know, the fast lane.
[Heidi] Next on Project Runway...
This next challenge is the big one.
Because it will decide which of you
will make it to Olympus Fashion Week.
This is not a time to get stuck.
[Tim] The judges can almost predict
what you're going to show them.
Don't bore Nina.
Now I'm worried that I'm going too safe with this.
I have an announcement to make.
Yes! Holy smokes.
