[Tim] Come in, come in.
Shake it off,

and celebrate the fact that you're here.

- We're going to turn this thing around.
- Yeah.

[Yannik]
Jeremy's reaction, that was hard.

In life, you can fail
and fall and get up again.

Here is like, if you fail, you're out.

[Heidi] We're down to our top five.
I can't believe it.

[Jeanette]
We either.

- [Rafael] Yeah.
- [nervous laughter]

One of you is going to win
one million dollars.

- Isn't that crazy?
- It is.

[Yannik]
I'm going to cry!

- Jeanette, congratulations on your win.
- Thank you.

- [Heidi] A two-time winner.
- [Tim] Yeah.

[applause]

You are all well aware of
the importance of social media

and the exposure
it can lend to your brand.

Video campaigns are a great way
for fashion brands to make a splash

and connect to their audience.

TikTok has become the go-to
social media platform

for fashion content creators and brands.

[Tim] Fashion houses such as St. Laurent,

Louis Vuitton and Prada are live-streaming
fashion shows on TikTok.

For your next assignment,
we want you to create

social media content
that will grab people's attention.

Wow.

It is so important that these are unique
and stand out.

What message are you relaying
to your audience about your brand?

You must also create a two-look
collection that represents your brand.

One look should be high fashion,
the other one should be accessible.

Remember, anything you create
for social media should really stand out.

There's a lot out there, so you need
to make your looks eye-catching.

[Markantoine] I'm ready for
this assignment. I love to do video.

It's something that I know well,
and also this brand statement,

I wanna use, like,
everything that is Markantoine.

And because this assignment is
all about representing your brand,

your hair and makeup styling
will be crucial.

You will have two days
for this assignment,

but that includes the filming
and editing of your videos.

You will record and edit
your videos on your phone.

You will have one seamstress
working with you in the design studio,

as well as one seamstress overnight.

And your videos will factor
heavily into the final outcome.

- Are you ready to have fun again?
- Yes!

I'll see you on the runway.
I wish all of you good luck.

I can't wait to see what you come up with,
so get some sleep, everyone.

[Tim]
We're going to get some sleep.

- [Heidi] Bye!
- [light laughter]

[Markantoine]
No doubt.

- [Markantoine] Look at us...
- [Rafael] We're still together.

[Markantoine]
...global top five! Whoa!

[laughter]

[Yannik] Four.
[chuckles]

- Hi, David.
- Hi!

- How are you?
- How are you?

He looks so much bigger.

Hi, baby! Apollo!

Hi!

Oh, my God,
it makes me want to cry.

I miss you guys so much, it's nuts.

[David] We miss you too.

Don't let him and thinking about us

distract you from what you're up to there.

No, I know, I know.

What you've achieved so far is...

...we're all really impressed.

Thank you. Well, hopefully,
I'll win it for us,

and then it will be all worthwhile.

[soft laughter]

- Hi, love.
- How are you doing?

I'm doing good.
I won last night assignment.

- Congratulations!
- [Jeanette laughs]

My first look, I was very proud of it,
but my second look,

I didn't have... time to finish it,
so it didn't come out.

So, I feel like halfway happy, kind of.

You learn from your mistakes,

and you move on to the next,
or you will make this mistake again.

Yeah.
[sniffles]

♪♪♪

I can't sleep when I have,
you know, so much sh*t on my mind.

I was doing work
till four o'clock in the morning.

I'm potentially doing something
that usually takes me a week to make.

[Georgia]
I haven't won a single assignment.

From the previous experience
with the judges, I'm a bit scared,

so I need to do something special.

I want to show them a bit more variety,

that I'm not just,
you know, doing pleating.

I'm doing a technique where you
fold fabric to create a sculptural effect.

And then I wanted
to create a 2-D effect

from my 3-D by creating a print.

The concept for the video
was basically a rebirth.

So I wanted to make the awakening
of a dark sculptural angel.

[♪ vocalist sings assertive song]

Oh, I don't know what to get!

What is in my mind right now
is to pick the right fabric

because that is what
makes your whole piece.

Do you know what you're doing?

I think I know, but... things always
change.

I'm using red again
after winning the festival with red.

I think that for my brand
and for this video,

red is the color that should be.

You can see the drape,
you can see the work.

It would make me stand out online,
and it has my DNA.

So, this one... eh, two yards.

Yeah. Perfect.

[♪ vocalist sings assertive song]

Yo.

Hello! How's it going?

I don't know. [laughs]

[Georgia laughs]

At this point in the competition,
I want to show the judges versatility.

Okay.

For my runway look,

I decided to go bold

with this glam skater boy,

this constructed hoodie,

with this face mask also.

And for my accessible look,

I decided to do tights

with this multilayer skirt,

with this cross waistband

that is kind of a signature thing
on my brand.

I want to grab attention
for the video on Internet.

My two looks and be, like,
all sequins and everything.

- Good luck.
- Thanks, darling, you too.

♪♪♪

[Yannik]
I'm feeling tired, didn't sleep much,

having in my head still
last night's elimination.

I understand that Jeremy's reaction

was because he cares,

but I'm a sensitive person.

I know how it is to be misunderstood.

When I was a boy, I was
always the one who got picked on.

I have a younger sister. She was a tomboy,

so, actually, even if
she's the younger sister,

when other kids were picking on me,
my sister always protected me.

Now I can handle every kind of criticism,

but fashion is my passion, so it's hard.

Hey, guys.

- Hey!
- Hi!

[Markantoine sighs heavily]

Let's start.

[♪ vocalist sings energizing song]

Hello, guys.

- Hi, my love.
- Hello.

- Hi, gorgeous winner.
- Hello!

[Rafael]
Sometimes I'm feel lost.

Sometimes I'm feel
really disappointed with myself.

So, for this assignment,
I'm trying... find my way. Again.

- My head's exploding. I'm dying.
- Yo, man.

I'm trying to focus on everything.

- But you're okay.
- You're also tired.

Yeah, of course.

I'm so nervous.

♪♪♪

- [woman] Georgia?
- [Georgia] Oh, hello!

- Yeah.
- I'm Zenaida.

Hi, Zenaida!

[overlapping greetings]

I like to do tailored stuff.

We just have to represent
our brand as best as possible.

So, like, classic jeans.

Sew,

overlap, top stitch.

- I really need to prove myself today.
- Yeah.

I might actually do
a black-and-white video.

You'll see the sculpture
coming together in the stop motion,

and then she is basically born.

Oh, my goodness.

[♪ vocalist sings energizing song]

[Jeanette]
I like your fabric a lot, Markantoine.

Yeah, I love it too. It's fun.

[Jeanette]
Mm-hmm.

Yesterday night,
I felt a little bit dark in my head,

so for those looks
I want to create a streetwear,

night out,
glam but punk at the same time.

The concept of my video
is party people having fun.

The Internet is my customer,

so I know you have to
discover something new in everything.

This is something
I'm doing with my clothes.

I'm ready to win with this one.

♪♪♪

[softly]
Okay.

Look at you, sculptural girl.

Yeah. Oh, wow. It's cool, right?

This looks really beautiful, Georgia.

Thanks.

[Georgia] My runway look with the folds
and the intricate details

is very complex,

and I don't have a lot of time,
so it's a big risk.

[sighing] Okay.

[♪ vocalist sings upbeat song]

[Jeanette]
Rafael.

[Rafael chuckles]
Do you like it?

[Jeanette] Are you kidding me?
Of course I like it.

[Rafael]
Okay.

[Jeanette]
This room is on fire today, right?

- After what happened yesterday.
- I know, right?

It's on fire.

I'm getting a bit confused.
[laughs]

Hello!

Am I being stupid?

[Yannik]
No, our brains are f*cked.

- [laughter]
- [Jeanette] Wow.

Is your print being made, Yannik?

Yep. Let's hope it works.

[Georgia]
Yay.

[Yannik] For this assignment,
I go with a tomboy look for the girl

and with a dress for the guy.

My brand is all gender-inclusive,

and the video's
going to represent my brand.

I chose the topic of rules in society

which are connected with female or male.

Yesterday,
the judges didn't like my looks,

so I want to take a risk.
I want to show the judges

a different perspective of what
Maison Blanche is capable to do.

I just don't want it
to end like yesterday.

♪♪♪

- Hi!
- Hi, Tim!

Hi! Our fabulous final five.

- Yay!
- I'm eager to see what you're doing.

Well, Rafael is back.

Talk to me.

Yesterday for me,

we have a shake-it-up.

Well, it was a shake-up moment,
that's for sure.

Yeah! And I really believe the clothes
can change the energy.

So, for this runway look, is alike...

...windmill.

[Tim] Windmill? Okay.

And I have some doubts about...

I work in this for the runway look,
or this for the runway look.

That counterpoint of the minimalism
to the exuberance of the pleats,

I think it's very beautiful, so, for me,
that would be the runway look.

Okay, and this is my accessible look.

- That's the accessible look?
- Yeah.

How are you going to handle those pleats?

It's not difficult to do this.

Ohh, this is going
to make that dress not $90.00.

It's going to make the dress... $600.

[♪ musical impact]

How is Yannik?
Have you recovered?

- I will recover.
- Good.

So, what are you up to?

Yeah. For the runway look,
it looks like a huge pants.

Huge.

But it's actually a kind
of pencil skirt dress.

- Okay.
- For the accessible look,

I do a pants, a little oversized,

double-layered with this print on it.

The only cautionary words I will offer

is your accessible looks
haven't been that accessible.

[♪ musical impact]

Markantoine.

For this assignment video,
I decided to create this night-out theme.

Okay.

So, for my runway look,
dark purple and black denim also.

And for my accessible look,
it's gonna be a skirt.

This is the most feminine item
I've ever seen you create.

I know.

[laughs]

I'm trying to read
their mind a little bit.

But you still have to stay
true to yourself.

Of course.
And I'm doing a jacket in this fabric.

It's like... here.

[♪ musical impact]

I think you need to dial down
the number of textiles you use.

I mean, the shape itself
isn't overdesigned,

but if you start having this
cacophony of textiles,

that concerns me.

I do understand the concern of Tim, but...

I wanna have some fun and I'm just
gonna stick to what I do best.

I would like to capture
how much I love and enjoy fabrics.

- Okay.
- You know, because that's what I do.

- I drape.
- Yeah.

So, very romantic video.

So, this is going to be runway look.

- Okay.
- I just put it on the mannequin...

because I wanted
to know how this fabric will react.

Yeah. But this is the textile.

Yes, this is the fabric.
And then, for the accessible look,

this is the fabric
that I'm going to be using here.

♪♪♪

This worries me.

Are there things
you could do to this

so that it's not just a classic...

- Okay.
- ...gown?

I mean, this is representing your brand.

It always happen when I see the model.

But most of the time,
I just take the fabric

and just drape it on her and see.

I'm just worried it's a repetition
of what you've already done.

- Okay.
- And at this point in this competition,

there's no room
for these kinds of questions...

I agree with you.

...because it's very likely two
more designers are going to go,

and you don't want it to be you.

- Hi, Georgia.
- Hi, Tim.

Wow.

This is... embodies
my sculptural aesthetic.

- It certainly does.
- I photographed it.

Um, I'm gonna make it into a 2-D print...

- ...and this is the printed dress.
- Wow. Oh, good heavens.

For the accessible look,
it's a floor-length dress in jersey.

Okay.

I'm crazy about the fact that this is you.

- I can tell it's you...
- Yeah.

...but it's a new iteration of you.

The only comment I'll make,

It looks a bit like bones
and a bit like a spinal column.

- I kind of like that, though.
- Good.

I was just gonna say, own it.
And I love the idea of the print.

You haven't received it back yet.

- No, I haven't made it yet.
- Oh, you haven't made it!

No, I'm making it.

Make the print.
I'm getting out of your hair.

- Thank you, Tim.
- Okay, thank you, Georgia.

All right.

Your seamstress pick-up for tonight
is at eleven,

and I have to tell you,

you're creating beautiful,
innovative, creative work.

Keep doing it.

- Thank you, Tim.
- Thank you, Tim.

And tomorrow, enjoy
your video shoots. Bye-bye.

- Ciao.
- Bye-bye.

[♪ energetic song plays]

That's cute.

Okay, let's see if that works.

It's subtle, but there's still contrast.

I like that a lot.

[Rafael sighs]

Now I need to think
about my accessible look.

So, what are you going to change to it?

I really don't know.

How's it going, Jeanette?

Still draping. I want drama.

Yeah, of course.

- I really like it.
- I love it.

I think it's gorgeous.

Yeah. I need it to be in red.

This is a video
that represents your brand...

- Yeah, you--
- ...and red is my color, you know?

- [Georgia] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [Markantoine] You do red?

- Yes.
- My girl!

You know, this is my girl, but... eh...

it's not modern, it's not contemporary.

It's not like what we are waiting for.

Looks good.

Yeah, the contrast is much clearer.

I think it looks much better
than the paper looked like before.

Tim told me that some of my looks
are not very accessible.

For me, it's hard to do accessible looks,

but I actually want to push
those boundaries with my brand.

I know I won't please everyone in life.

I have to be happy with the work
and do my best.

I have nothing to fit again.

Rafael is in the type of look, which...

It's not my cup of tea.

It's too Walt Disney princess.

Failure is not an option.

It just popped off.

[♪ urgent music plays]

[Jeanette] One thing that is in my head
is the drape of the purple dress.

I think that the problem here
is the fabric.

The fabric always tell you
what it can do,

and she's clearly telling me,
"I'm not going there,"

so I'm a little bit worried.

My mother, for me...

is everything.

She is...
Sorry.

She's in the hospital now.

Because in the last years,
she discovered her cancer.

How about the medications?

I have one last one tomorrow.

Great.

Before I come from here,

her doctor call me:

"Rafa, if you travel, do you know,
maybe when you come back,

maybe your mother not be here anymore.

And when I talk with my mother,
she told me,

"If something happens to me,
keep going."

And because that, I really will fight

with all my soul to go to the final.

Kisses.

Kisses, Mom. I love you more
than anything. I really miss you.

Kisses, Dad.

For this assignment, we're
doing a two-look campaign

about our brand identity,
and we're gonna make a video.

Okay, tripod.

[♪ vocalist sings assertive song]

Look at you, drama!

Yeah, something like that.

Ah! Here we go.
We're in business.

I'm going to do a stop-motion

The drama of it all!

[Georgia] Oh, my God.
Thank God, right?

[Yannik] Hey, guys.

[Markantoine]
Are you ready? Because I am.

[Yannik]
So, let's do the crazy hair and makeup.

Can we do it mint and green?

Like, you know, like, not...

No, nothing clean. No clean lines.

So, we're still going for, uh,
trash garbage couture.

Trash garbage couture. Okay.

You're gonna have a face mask
on you, in sequins.

- Nice.
- Yeah.

We have to sh**t with our models,

and we have to make
sure that their makeup is done,

hair is done.

I want her eyes to be like this,
you know, like super crazy.

And also fitting and everything.

And not a lot of time.

Let's do this.

Yes, he can see.

- Take it off and just throw it at me.

Then I'm going to grab it, okay?

Perfect.

[♪ throbbing music plays]

[Jeanette]
Models, switch!

Switch from hair to makeup
and makeup to hair, please!

Thank you!

[Yannik]
I love you.

That's the idea:
straight back, Alien-style.

My idea is an outer-worldly figure.

Cheekbone?

We're gonna try with both
no eyebrows this time.

That's cool.

Arms down like that. Okay.

Think getting up quite obscure
and, like, alien-like.

Yeah, you're coming out of a long cocoon.

You've been, you've been sleeping
for a long time.

I need to do well. I mean, this is

the one to show what you're all about.

Is it filming?
How do I know it's filming?

When it's red.

Perfect? You are perfect.

[Rafael] My concept
is about one girl so brilliant,

so shine, so happiness.

She has a power to change the energy,

and she meeting other girl
a little sad, a little boring,

and she put color in her life.

Ready? Go. Yeah, yes, yes.

I like the pink pants,
but it's not so dry.

I think my skin is wet.

But this is a base of water.

It's not problem.
It's specifically for, uh, for this.

Let me show you.

Um... I think that's enough.

No.

Yeah, she doesn't want
to get it on her skin.

Sorry.

Time is running. Whoo!

[Yannik] I want them actually to like
touch hand or something and swap clothes.

You clap here. In that moment
you clap, you change your clothes.

Okay.

Guys, in 3-2-1, go!

Perfect.

It's really difficult to show
all-gender inclusivity

if you were just working
with male and female gender.

Ready when you are.

I'm going to put some signs
on the toilet.

They're gonna change it
from male to all-gender

or from female and male to all-gender.

Even though I'm white and, um, cisgender,

I'm still a minority as a g*y man,
and I know how it is.

You can easily get mistreated
and misunderstood,

so... I want to work with those people
who are in the same--

wearing the same pair of shoes.

When you walk back, look in the camera.

And you'd be like,
"Come on, b*tch."

[laughter]

Okay, 1, 2, 3.

Action.

The idea was to have two mannequins
in front of the store,

and then two friends
are just passing by,

and they just look at the mannequins
and say, "Oh I want it."

So they just put it on them.

Don't think too much.
Just have fun.

Yes, beautiful. That was the best one.

[Rafael] Time is short, and she needs
to put the... the pants again.

Very terrible moment for me.

I will wear them when they do dry.
I'm not gonna wear them...

It's almost dry. Sorry. We have...

You know about "show must go on."

Is that dry?

No, outside is not dry. Sorry.

I'm gonna wait until they dry.
I won't wear them.

See? And this is not the watercolor.

I don't will finish my video

because she can't put the pants
and just recording.

It's terrible.

I'm going to do that.

If I will have the allergy tomorrow,
I'm gonna sue you.

- Okay.
- Okay.

[Yannik]
How much minutes we have?

[Georgia] Nine minutes.
I want to see everyone's videos!

I don't will finish
my video because of you.

The idea is for entire look
will be in pink.

It's... oh, my God,
we not have a lot of time.

I'm ready to rumble now.

- Okay, so I guess we're done-done.
- Where is Rafa?

- Always gone?
- Yeah. Where's Waldo? Where's Rafa?

Yeah, I don't know.
Where is Rafa?

Rafa is never around.
That's so funny.

Rafa's gone somewhere.

And go over there.

[Rafael] I feel afraid
because somebody needs to go home.

Denise, come on.
Sorry, sorry. Back, back, back.

I'm taking off the pants!

Ohh. Let me... go...

I need to finish.

Welcome to our fashion show.

We're at a crucial stage

about their brand statement.

Welcome to our fabulous judges:

- Yes!

[Halle]
It's, like, scary.

[Heidi] You can also rob a bank with it,
and no one will see your eyes or anything!

- [Nicole] Yeah!

I'm surprised that this
is the accessible look.

I am not sure about this.

I felt without--

I have to show a little bit of skin

- It's a print.
- Oh, it is a print.

- It is a print.
- Oh, okay.

Instead of doing it on--
on the accessible look,

I did it on the runway look.

[Tim] Okay.

He always designs in white.
That's part of his brand.

Oh, wow.

I'm just... is it a jumpsuit?

It's kind of like a one leg
of a pant as a dress.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

And I feel like this is his thing,
is like you always take

an extra look, and you're like,

Oh, I just discovered
this whole other part of it.

- Yeah.
- It's true art.

The hair and makeup,
I love how vibrant it is.

I feel like they, if I wore them,

they wouldn't flatter me, right?

[Halle] I feel like they could be
flattering on some people...

- But not all bodies.
- Yeah.

I love it, but I love the pant leg
dress more.

- [Jeremy] Mm-hmm.
- [Chloe] I agree.

So, it's basically a tunic
with pants under it.

- Yes. Yeah.
- Okay.

[Heidi]
Whoa.

[Nicole] The fabric is very stiff,
and so the pants are ill-fitting.

[Jeremy]
Mm-hmm.

- It's just not very flattering...
- No.

...the shape.

[♪ vocalist sings dance song]

Those accessories are terrible.
I'm into the top.

It's not even holding the structure
of this pleat.

It's crashing in on itself.

So we had that one that was so rigid,
and now this one is collapsing.

- Yeah.
- The makeup.

The earrings are maroon.

Eye shadow is pink.
The pants are magenta.

It's just a lot of different shades,
and it's not working.

- Come on in, Georgia.
- Ah. Can't wait to see the show.

[♪ vocalist sings dance song]

- That's cute!
- Oh, I like this!

She did her pleating,
but a different style of it.

- God, this is good.
- Like, this is great.

- [Heidi] Very good.
- [Chloe] I love it.

And it's very flattering
to the female body.

It is.

- [Tim] Beautiful.
- [Georgia] Thank you.

Look how the light
picks up all the layers.

Yay!

Love that she has no eyebrows.
I think that's also very cool.

Super smart of her to take
her technique, do a print of it.

- Is it a print?
- It's a print.

I think this is a great interpretation
from the high-fashion look.

[Jeremy] You know they belong together,
and this is accessible,

and it is wearable.

I think it's really nice
'cause it kind of contours in.

- Yeah.
- I love what Georgia did.

Georgia was my favorite.

Georgia's definitely
at the top of my list.

- [Chloe] Yeah.
- I mean, she really nailed it today.

[Nicole] She showed us
a different side of herself,

but also stuck to her brand.

- My favorite today is Yannik.
- Pantleg dress is so cool.

Yeah. I love that Yannik
surprised us by being a leg.

[laughter]

- Side pocket and everything.
- Yeah.

[Nicole] Rafael really disappointed me
this week, you guys.

- I'm sad about it.
- I'm gonna fight for him.

- [Jeremy] But this is awful!
- [Nicole] It is. Today.

Today it is, but every time
we've loved everything.

- Yeah.
- He cannot go.

- I agree.
- I'm gonna fight for him.

Markantoine, just,
he does too many things,

and then I can't break down
the individual pieces

'cause he's just like
styling, styling, styling.

I wasn't a fan
of the holes in the leggings.

Oh, no, no, no. I don't like it either.

Today, it looks like a school art project.

Like, it does not
look sophisticated at all.

Jeanette disappointed me too.

I know! And she's been so good.

- And I like her.
- Yeah.

- I loved her color choices, though.
- [Jeremy] Mmm.

- [Heidi] The berry color is so beautiful.
- [Chloe] I agree.

[Halle] It pops.

But then when you get to the second
outfit, it looks like it did pop.

And it's just, like, popped open,
you know?

- [laughter]
- [Nicole] Yes. It really did.

I think we really need
to talk to them,

and we also need
to see those TikTok videos.

- Yes.
- Yes.

But who's going to go home?

All the people that we've loved
all this time didn't do so great today!

I know. Well, I like everyone now.

That's the-- that's the hard part.

You are Yannik. Last time-- let me
just check your photo one more time.

I'm gonna hand my--
I'm gonna hand my book to Nicole.

- [Nicole] Okay, I've got you and you.
- I appreciate. Thank you.

I wanted to show the side
of my brand that is tailored pieces.

The first look is actually
a dress in the shape of a folded pant.

Second look is also,
uh, oversized pants

with a printed tee-shirt.
You want to hear more?

I absolutely love the pant-dress.
So unique.

I was less excited about
the second look, but I don't dislike it.

The hair and makeup tonight was brilliant.
Very happy.

Thank you for taking
the critiques and putting the effort

and enthusiasm where you need to.

Thank you very much.
I appreciate it.

[Heidi] The pant-dress was my favorite
of the night. For me, it was the winner.

I didn't dislike the second look,
but it was almost too normal in a way.

But I always see you, and there's
not a whole lot of other people

that are creating how you create.

And I like that.
It makes you unique.

Thank you.

I never knew that I wanted to be
a leg or a butt cheek before,

but after seeing that dress, I do.

You always force me to take a pause,

and that's how you're supposed
to look at art.

And that's what this is. This is art.

What I loved about the first look
is that I envisioned myself,

you know, maybe at a Coachella,
as an audience member,

and I could see my friends
wearing that look,

but I could also see maybe the headliner,
the performer wearing that look.

Let's take a look at your video.

Like, two models walking around
in the toilet? Like, it's kind of...

I don't know.

- I personally love the video.
- Really?

- Yes.
- [laughter]

I have to say, the beauty of social media
is that, the more raw it is,

the more attention-grabbing it will be.

That's kind of what pulls us in,
is when it's like,

"Oh, I could have made it."
Like, I feel like I-I could do this.

I relate to this person.

Yannik.

Congratulations, you're making the cut.

[happy squeak]

Ahh! Thank you!

- Well done, mate.

♪♪♪

Georgia.

So, I made two looks
which embody my brand.

I created a three-dimensional
sculptural showpiece,

and my accessible look is
a interpretation

of the sculptural showpiece.

I created a stop-motion video
about a rebirth.

Yeah, so it was... That's... that's it.

I loved your showpiece.

It was '60s and mod and-- and it was
just dreamy and perfect.

This is your brand. I do think that
that second dress is an accessible look

without losing who you are.

I just think you did a really great job.

Thank you, Nicole, I appreciate that.

I believe both of your dresses
were, like, our favorite.

The longer one was very,
very beautiful,

and it was abstract and different,
but still so simple and comfortable.

I don't know where you were
digging around inside of you,

but you've got
the absolute best out of you.

The first one was absolutely beautiful,

and then how you translated that
into the accessible look was fantastic.

[Georgia]
Thank you.

All right, let's take a look
at your video.

♪♪♪

[Heidi]
Wow.

[Nicole] Oh, my God, Georgia,
loved that video.

I thought that it was so interesting.

If I saw that scrolling on TikTok,

I'd be like what is this? I need this.

I'm so very proud of you.

Oh, my God, I'm going to cry.

Your love of pleating,

your treatment,
your singular talent,

and you exploded it onto that dress.

And then you took that

and made an accessible look
that's completely connected.

It was so brilliant.

Thank you so--
I mean, it's everything.

Honestly, it means everything.
Thank you.

- It's unanimous. You are the winner.
- What?

[applause]

This is cool!

Your accessible look
and companion pieces

will be immediately available
in the Making the Cut store on Amazon.

- Yeah!
- [Yannik] Yay!

[gentle laughter]

I was getting to a point
where I was questioning,

Am I doing something wrong?

So, thank God that I won that.

Gives me the energy
to be able to continue.

I feel like I needed that.

Markantoine.

- Bonsoir.
- Bonsoir.

I can't believe I'm just in front of
the Little Mermaid right now.

- I'm like, Oh, my God!
- [laughter]

I wanna have some fun
for this assignment,

so I was inspired by the nightlife,

and I created those, like, glam, punk,

very on-brand for me
with the skateboard.

So, I feel very great
about what I did today.

I didn't love your looks today.

Didn't love the pants
with the glittering patches so much.

Your second look for me
was all over the place.

Almost looked like a student project.

Looked like you found
all these different pieces

that you had left over,
and you all stuck them onto a skirt.

I know you love to style,
but I feel like it was a Christmas tree

with every ornament on it you could find.

I will agree with Heidi
about the second look

is not as accessible with,
like, the halter.

I'm not a big fan, maybe,
of tiered, multilayered skirts.

It's just not my vocabulary,
and I don't always resonate with it.

I'm surprised that the sweatshirt
wasn't your accessible look.

The challenge that I've had
with you over the past few weeks

is like there is so much styling going on.

I am like, Okay, wait,
so, what are we selling here?

All right, let's take a look
at your video.

I mean, I'm not super excited.
Not, you know... It was like...

[makes vocal tone]

I feel like I would have been
drawn in more if I saw

maybe some details
of the pieces in your video.

I want just to say that the Internet
is my customer,

so sometimes I do feel
like I have to do a lot

because I want to bring
this market to me,

and I promise... that I'm gonna
do a little less styling.

one of my best work of the season,

There's never, like, a streetwear designer

doing very far in the competition,
and I've made it far.

You're a fabulous... [kiss]
designer. [kiss]

I'm proud... but I didn't deserve to go.

Gonna take over the world!

Jeanette and Rafael,

can you please both step forward.

Gonna start with you, Jeanette.

I'm gonna start with the red dress.

I used jersey, and I use
a lot of jersey in my brand,

but I don't think that the drape
on the top really...

did the effect that I wanted.

I didn't find it to be
your best work tonight.

And I'm such a fan of you.

[Nicole] For your accessible look,
I wish it was what you're wearing.

[Jeremy] Mm-hmm.

- [Nicole] You look beautiful.
- [Jeremy] It's a winning look.

Normally you have such an amazing hand
when it comes to drape.

Today, it didn't look effortless to me.
It looked like something went wrong.

All right, let's take a look at the video.

[♪ vocalist sings playfully
assertive song]

Oh, I think actually the dresses
looked better in this video

than on the runway.

- Okay.
- Yes, the clothes did look better...

on the video than they did
on the runway, yeah.

Okay.

All right, Rafael.

You're in this spot right now, too.

What do you think happened?

After my accident with the machine...

Oh, my God.

Aah!

Something's happened inside me,
and I sometimes

don't feel the same power
in the beginning.

The plan is painting out
the outfit in pink,

but we don't have a time to dry.

The reason why this is so hard
for me this week

is because I do feel like I know you
and understand you as a brand.

Color is so much your thing.

Her makeup, she had on a-a version
of pink in her eyeliner,

but then it was
a different pink in the pants.

Didn't make any sense to me.

I mean, I look at you here too,
wearing gold,

and it's drapey, and I think, Wow,

if you had used this fabric
and done something like that,

that probably would have
looked really good.

Let's take a look at your video.

[♪ vocalist sings confident song]

I mean, the problem is
Georgia's video was just so good

that everything after that
for me fell flat.

I mean, yes, they look
like two girls having fun.

Now we also know
how the pants turned pink.

I thought, conceptually,
that's a beautiful message,

and I really appreciated that.

Seeing it on the runway,

it's like you should think the pink
is like, Oh, random.

But in the video, it made sense

with the concept, which I appreciated.

Judges, I think we need a minute.
Do you agree?

[Nicole]
Mm-hmm.

[Tim]
Why don't you all follow me.

[Heidi]
Thank you.

It literally is the toughest one yet.

Like, normally I'm so easy
to pick who I love,

and I have the hardest time
because I love both of them.

- [Yannik] You're great.
- [Jeanette] It's tough to be there.

[Rafael] I feel so close
to go to home, but...

I can't lose the competition
because I'm here for my mom.

She is my inspiration.

I'm shaking.

Since I decided I wanted
to be a fashion designer, all my energy,

I have focused that
into just one thing,

and I know that if they give me
the opportunity to stay,

I know for sure that I'm not gonna
let them down.

So, about this decision.
