Inventive with this dress as you

Fresh, outdoors, at a dinner

Threw up.

Maxi.

Under-designed?
I intentionally made it very
Minimal.

Silhouette and not have

Yeah, I'll figure--
You will.

That's so out of my comfort
Zone, but I really nailed it
With this one, and I think it's
Very modern and very
Fashionable, and there's no way
I can lose with this look.
With this challenge, whether
I've nailed it or not, that is
My vision of the modern southern
Fashionable woman.
This is the look for the
Modern southern woman because
It is all about keeping it
Simple but bold in the color.
I want to be her when I grow
Up.
I know.
I challenged myself.
I was able to create something
That I haven't seen before.
That's a nice drape on there.
Good job.
It's beautiful.
My design is striking,
Vibrant, energetic, exactly what
The belk woman should be.
It's moving exactly the way
I wanted it, and it's just the
Right amount of fullness.
I hope I'm in the top three, and
I hope I win.
Now, why doesn't my hair
Look like that when I tried to
Do it this morning?
I chose some really difficult
Fabric.
I probably should've gone with
Something less pleated and had
Less structure and body to it.
This is outside my normal safety
Zone, and I think that, with a
More friendlier fabric, my
Design would've been ex*cuted
Much more eloquently.
I really pushed myself to
Find new ways of using the plaid
And the grain of the fabric
So it had this image of being
Really, really full, and yet it
Hung closer to the body and
Didn't look overwhelming.
I take risks.
That's what my work is about.
I don't want to do something
That I've seen before or that
I've done before.
I would never see the modern
Southern woman in these plaid
Dresses.
In my opinion, they should
Definitely be worried about this
Challenge.
Love the split.
Yeah, I'm feeling very good
About how the fabric's moving.
She looks very sexy.
The height of the slit is
Perfect.
My model really looks like the
Southern woman that I see in my
Family every day, and they're
Modern, and that's exactly what
A modern southern woman should
Look like.
I'm not really sure what a
Modern southern woman looks like
In the judges' eyes.
My look not only looked
Southern.
It looked nationwide, and as a
Designer, I'm thinking about
Every customer, not just one.
It would certainly satisfy a
Large proportion of the core
Belk customer.
It was a good choice of
Print too.
I like the way the colors
Turned out.
It's everything that belk said
They wanted.
It's modern.
It's bright.
It's exuberant.
I'm really proud of myself
Because I would never in a
Million years have chosen that
Print, but she looks like a
Modern southern woman.

Let's bring out your models.
Bradon, tell us about your look.
I used cotton shirting to
Create a day dress.
The top, I kept classic style.
On the bottom, I wanted to take
It more modern.
So it literally has a little
Bit of history and a little bit
Of edge.
I really like it.
I do like it that it is super
Short in the front, super short
On the side, and long in the
Back.
I think it is modern, and it has
Sex appeal to it.
I would love to rock this dress.
It felt fresh, modern, and
Very southern.
And it looks like you could find
It in a store, which is
Exciting.
Awesome. Thank you.
You chose a very expected
Fabric and made something very
Unexpected.
I think you did a great job.
Thank you so much.
This dress just makes me
Happy, and I loved how it moved.
Great job.
Thank you so much.
It's this modern version of
Country club, and I think that
Really came across.
Job well done.
Thank you so much.
Jeremy, tell us about your
Look.
I wanted to do a rework on a
Tailored jacket.
I teamed this with an abstract,
Geometric print.
I think we all kind of agree
That this does not look very
Modern.
Again, very madame.
It's not madame.
That would be positive to this.
Sorry, sweetie.
[Whispers]
I'm also not very happy about
The silhouette.
When she takes the jacket off,
She's just a lady.
She's not very sexy.
Well, it's colorful.
[Laughs]
I do have to agree.
It doesn't seem very hip, and
The length is a bit weird for me
As well.
Somewhere it has to be a
Little sexy here.
I can't get past the print.
Nothing about the dress or
Jacket looked modern to me.
I'm afraid this look just missed
The mark.
Ken, tell us about your look.
With this challenge, I wanted
To go with a color that was
Vibrant but also rich.
This particular dress is
Ageless.
I absolutely love my look.
I think you chose a great
Color.
That being said, I'm not that
Interested in the dress.
It's not a wow piece to me.
Where is she going?
I thought about formal
Weddings.
Wedding?
She's going to a wedding?
Formal wedding.
I mean, regardless of where
She's going to, it's very
Unflattering.
It's a very safe design, ken.
Where I live, they are not
Walking around in these
Extravagant, wow pieces.
I'm just not excited by the
Dress.
The thing that jumps out at
Me is I've seen this before.
It wasn't a new--a newer
Silhouette.
It read a little bridesmaid to
Me, candidly, so...
How are you feeling, ken?
It's not important right now.
You look like you want to
Roll your eyes into your head
Right now.
I expected the judging panel
To want plaid, and that's not
What I see at home.
Thank you, ken.
Kate, tell us about your look.
When I went shopping at mood,
I went straight for the prints.
This one just jumped out at me.
Just the colors reminded me so
Much of the south.
I think this was a really fun
Use of color. You nailed it on
that. It's very sellable.
I really liked it.
Thank you.
You picked a wonderful print.
This dress would have hanger
Appeal.
Kate, I was not a fan of this
Dress.
She looks pregnant in this
Dress, especially from the side.
How tall are you?
She's 5'11".
I mean, who is 5'11"?
You.
You know, she's a gorgeous,
Tall model, so I imagine this
On someone who's shorter.
Sorry.
No, that's okay.
Thank you.
I would be happy if I saw a
Woman wearing this.
I think you know your customer.
You know how you like to dress.
I thought the execution of
This dress was great.
Could you turn around real
Quick?
I could see that on a rack.
It looked like something we
Could sell.
Thank you.
Dom, tell us about your look.
I grew up with a very
Southern upbringing, so
I decided to do a
Special-occasion evening gown.
I love color.
I love my dress.
I love this coastal vibe.
I think the only thing I wrestle
With is kind of the evening-gown
Function of it.
This looks like a dress that
I can see somewhere at a mall,
But it's not fashion-forward.
I thought about a woman who
Did buy a dress in the store.
I did want to scale back and do
Something more minimal.
Maybe you scaled back a
Little too much.
There's so much that you
Could've done.
You didn't do it.
I'm so surprised you went so
Safe.
This was your challenge.
I need to see what oomph you
Have as a designer.
Oh, I have oomph.
Well, then bring it.
Alexander, tell us about your
Look.
I found this print that is
Plaid, which is kind of southern
To me, but then it also is
Actually painted strokes, which
I thought was expressive, and
Just did all these little tucks
That stick out.
I think the dress looks
Beautifully made.
I commend you in the time frame.
Now, does the fabric have
Stretch in it?
No.
No. Well done.
Thank you.
I think she looks sexy.
I think she looks sophisticated.
I think it's a fun dress.
I would wear that dress too.
You picked a beautiful
Pattern, and then the
Silhouette--i mean, it is sexy.
It had great movement on the
Runway.
It looks like something
I haven't necessarily seen.
And it was fun.
Thank you.
I think that the volume on
The bottom is a good balance for
The fit at the top.
The way that it moved down
The runway was beautiful.
Thank you.
The bodice is very beautiful.
It has very nice movement to it.
Thank you.
Okay, we've heard what you
Had to say.
We're going to take a closer
Look at the clothes, then have a
Little chat, and then we'll call
You back in a little bit.
You can leave the runway.
It was a challenging
Challenge, I have to say.
Yeah.
I've never seen the designers
Struggle so much with who the
Customer is.
The whole modern aspect of it
Is kind of missing in most of
Them.
But in dom's case, that is
Her forte--color and prints.
Mm-hmm.
It looks very pageant.
Yeah.
Jeremy's dress.
I mean, this looks like a
College fashion show in a
Nonmetropolitan city.
The textile design's not
Good.
It's just not--it's not a good
Print.
It's sad, 'cause he's very
Talented.
Let's look at ken's again.
I mean, I just thought it
Looked a little pedestrian.
Yeah, it's just not
Flattering.
I think this is a dress that
Blends in.
You loved kate's.
I mean, the execution, the
Print, and the color are really
Beautiful.
It is so unflattering, this
Dress.
But she picked the right
Fabric.
I like it.
You can see a lot of girls
Wearing this.
And, john, you think that
This would be sellable in your
Store?
Yes, I do. Yeah.
Love it.
To me, it seems fun.
You know, it's well made.
She looks sexy.
I think he accomplished
Something really cool.
It's a modern interpretation
Of an old dress silhouette.
Right, that's what I think
Too.
I think it's a blast.
It's very cute.
I love the versatility of
This dress.
There's something very cool
About it and very fresh because
It's very traditional fabric,
And it's a very traditional
Silhouette.
It's fabulous.
It's great as is, but you can
See this in other patterns.
We shall leave you to your
Deliberations.
I would really love to see
What the bottom three would do
If they really understood the
Challenge and who they were
Designing for, 'cause clearly,
They didn't.
There's so many things they can
Do to change it, and I wonder if
We should take the time and have
Them just do that.
Designers, your challenge was
To create a look for the modern
Southern woman, and for the most
Part, we were underwhelmed.
We think that some of you really
Didn't understand the challenge.
Bradon...
You were the exception.
You are the clear winner of
This challenge.
Wow.
Thank you very much.
Your dress will be produced
And sold at belk stores and on
Belk.com.
Amazing.
Bradon, we loved your modern
Interpretation of a shirt dress,
And I cannot wait to see it in
The stores.
Congratulations.
Wow. Thank you so much.
I appreciate the opportunity.
Bradon, you're in.
You can leave the runway.
Thank you.
Thanks again.
I am so happy to win this
Challenge.
It's the first time that one
Design that's totally me is
Gonna hit the mass market, and
I'm overjoyed.
So heidi klum wants to wear my
Dress.
She can.
Heidi, just go to belk.
You can get one.
Alexander, you're in.
You can leave the runway.
Thank you.
Kate, you're in.
You can leave the runway.
Thank you.
Jeremy...
Ken...
Dom...
For the first time in
Project runway history,
I'm gonna send you back to
The workroom right now.
You will have one hour to work
On your look, and to give you a
Little help, each of you can
Choose one fellow designer.
You have access to all of the
Fabrics that are still in the
Workroom.
Give us more modern fashion.
Redo your silhouettes or start
Over.
Whatever you can think of
To save your looks, do it.
It's a second chance.
Go, go, go.
What happened?
They're giving us an hour to
Redo everything.
No, shut up.
Can we help you?
Yeah, we get to pick one.
One person.
I decide to choose helen
Because she is really good, and
I realize that someone's gonna
Go home.
Alexander, do you mind giving
Me a little hand?
Okay.
I choose alexander
Immediately because I think he's
Talented.
His construction's great.
But the thought of going back
Into the workroom is traumatic,
'Cause everyone has so much to
Do.
Oh, my god.
I chose kate for this hour
Because kate sews very fast, and
She know how to play the game.
So what all they just hated
About it?
They did like the color a lot.
So let's stick with the
Fabric.
I don't think we need to make
The new dress within a hour's
Time frame.
I'm just gonna stick to my gut
And just remake this dress.
A really minimal--like, maybe
Some kind of, like, draping
Right there in the bust.
I'm very excited that I get a
Second chance for me to show
These judges what I can do.
I had two ideas, and I went with
My second, so now I get to show
Them what I originally had in
Mind for this challenge.
Let's do a quick version of
That bias dress they loved, just
Shorter.
Yeah.
The big thing with jeremy,
The judges always call his stuff
"Madame."
The goal is, keeping it a little
Bit more young and playful.
This?
Aging it.
Just keep it clean and simple.
Okay, clean and simple.
We need to just take these
Out.
We are panicking, and I'm just
Hoping and praying that we can
Make something that keeps him
Safe.
Oh, I feel like I'm gonna
Pass out.
Designers, thank your
Assistants.
They are staying.
You and your models are going
Down to the runway right now.
[Sighs]
Good heavens, be careful with
Those scissors.
That was purgatory.
[Upbeat electronic music]
♪ ♪
I keep everything clean,
Simple, and tailored.
I'm grateful at the fact that
The judges have given us a
Second chance.
However, it's been a
Roller-coaster ride for myself
And the judges in this
Competition, so I hope I don't
Get sent home.
I am so proud of how well the
Dress moves, and the fact that
I made it in 60 minutes is an
Awesome thing.
I took all of the accessories
Off, restyled the girl's makeup
And hair, and we swapped the
Shoes to be a much younger, more
Contemporary shoe.
[Dramatic music]
♪ ♪
Jeremy, tell us about your
look.
I went for a complete remake
And a complete restyle.
It's a lower-cut day dress.
I used two prints that I found
In the studio.
It's also got kind of a deep
Back as well--
Hopefully trying to go for
Something younger.
Isn't this amazing, what you
Can do in an hour?
You know, it's not the most
Interesting on the runway here,
But it's pretty.
It has some asymmetry to it.
You did a nice job.
Thank you.
It's the right fabric with
The right print.
I think this one is so much
More fun and easier to wear.
It's younger and hipper.
The dress silhouette isn't
The newest, but I like the mix
Of the prints.
It adds a little dimension to
It.
Thank you.
Dom, tell us about your look.
This was the original print
That I was gonna use, and I just
Decided to do something that was
Really young and fresh that just
Draped nicely on her body.
I love this dress.
Oh, good.
If this was in your store,
I would buy it.
I love it.
Dom, brava.
Oh.
If this had gone down the
Runway the first time, it
Would've been in my top.
I think it's such a cool print.
It moved beautifully.
You nailed it.
Well done.
Thank you.
It's fabulous.
It's edgy, yet easy.
I knew you had it in you.
I'm definitely gonna trust my
Instincts from now on.
Yes.
I want to take it off of her
Right now and put it in my
Suitcase.
It's classy, but it's also sexy,
Especially the back.
I love it.
Thank you.
What's really grabbed me is
How great it looks from the
Front and back.
This is a great coming-and-going
Dress, and there aren't many
Dresses that could accomplish
That.
Ken, tell us about your look.
Me and kate was just draping
The fabric and trying to see how
I could k*ll the bridesmaid's
Dress.
Quite an impressive
Transformation.
She looks sexier, cooler--
Yeah.
Absolutely.
It's something that I could
See a young girl wearing, and
I really can't believe that you
Did this in one hour.
[Laughs]
I can't either.
It's definitely more modern,
Definitely in that younger
space.
The decision to cut it shorter,
Based on that fabric, I think
That was a good decision.
I think this is so much
Improved.
I think this feels much more
Contemporary.
But it does feel like a
Late-night party dress to me
More than like a day dress.
Designers, you all did an
amazing job.
Your models definitely look so
Much younger and hipper.
Now we're gonna have a little
Chat, and we bring you back
In a little bit.
You can leave the runway.
It is amazing what they did
In one hour.
Much improved, right?
So improved.
Someone still has to go home.
All right, let's talk about dom.
Loved.
Loved.
I can see why she's still in
The competition.
I'm super impressed.
Not just improved.
We all love it.
All three of us would wear
It.
If that was in the first
Runway show, I would've given it
A high score.
That dress was spectacular.
Would you produce this dress?
That should be in belk
Stores.
So, really, it's between
Jeremy and ken.
Well, jeremy's is the most
Simple.
Ken's was slightly better, but
Jeremy has a better attitude.
I think jeremy should go home
Because his dress was too
Simple, in my eyes.
I feel that ken at least had
More fashion.
I mean I think jeremy's was
Pretty and safe.
It was nothing that we hadn't
Seen before.
Well, he tried to be
Strategic with his time and do
Something that was light and
Effective and young-feeling.
This is such a tough
Decision.
I don't know how you guys do
This every week.
Okay, so we've made our
Decision?
Let's bring them back out.
Designers, you did an amazing
Job in that one hour that you
Had.
We were super impressed by all
Three of you.
Dom, you did an amazing job.
Thank you.
And john has something that
He wants to tell you.
Dom, you are the comeback
Kid.
We would, at belk, like to
Produce and manufacture that
Dress, put it in our belk stores
And belk.com.
Oh, wow.
Congratulations.
Okay, sorry.
Damn it, I swore I wasn't
Gonna cry on this show.
[Laughs]
Wow. Thank you.
Great job.
You're also the winner of
This challenge.
You deserve it.
You're in.
You can leave the runway.
Thank you.
It's a pleasure meeting you,
Stacy.
Thank you, john.
Now that I've somehow won this
Challenge, the judges see now
What I'm about.
I can't wait to show them more.
What?
Not only am I safe, they
Liked that damn dress so much,
They're gonna make it with
Yours.
What?
Oh, my god.
Whoo!
Shut up!
Dom!
That's my skirt, girl!
That's amazing.
Oh, you.
Yes!

Jeremy...
I'm sorry.
You're out.
Well done, ken.
[Both smooch]
Ken...
That means you're in.
You can leave the runway.
Thank you.
Out of the three of us,
I think the right person went
Home, which is jeremy.
Ken.
Hey. Are you in?
Congratulations.
I'm still here.
Oh, my gosh.
Congrats.
That was hard.
I thought I was going home.
Jeremy, we loved having you
Here.
You did a fantastic job, and I'm
Very sad to see you go right
Now.
Auf wiedersehen.
Mm-hmm.
Good luck to you.
I'm really sad that I got out
On this challenge.
I disagree with the judges this
Time round, 'cause I think my
Look was very strong.
So what did they have to say?
Just didn't like it.
I'm going to see my kids, so
It's not sad.
It's happy.
And I get to [bleep] drink
Tonight.
[Laughter]
Love you all.
You're so eager to leave.
Well...
I just want to say, I am so
Proud of all of you.
And I had brilliant
Assistance.
But now I have to send you
To the workroom to clean up
Your space.
It's project runway musical
Chairs.
Certainly is.
Lots of love, guys.
Bye. Take care.
I'm really proud that I got
As far as it did in the show, on
Account of that's given me
More of an inner confidence.
I'm really looking forward to
Going back to my family.
I did project runway for the
Challenge.
I'm just looking for the next
Challenge, and it will arrive.
I'm sure it will.
Next time on
Project runway...
We selected these eight super
Fans to come be part of the
Show.
[Women screaming excitedly]
Oh, my god!
Want to get up on the runway?
Yeah, there you go, girl.
Work it.
Whoo!
Girl, you got to move that.
You're not gonna come in here
With that.
I can throw drama too, honey.
Get somebody up here now!
It's no [bleep] coming down!
I'm not fittin' to [bleep] deal
With it!
I know, I know.
They just need to get over
themselves.
It's too blouse-y.
I wrote down "maternity
librarian."
