It is unusual.

-I like it.
-Oh, yay.

I'm underwhelmed.

Every look that you're

Showing to us are disjointed.

I think you have to
decide who you are.

The detail of that scarf--

It's so pretty.

Is absolutely beautiful.

Are they all so different

That it's gonna be like
a circus?

What brings the
diversity together?

They look rich, luxe.

There's a lot of texture to your
collection.

But where is the wow?

What you need to do is inject

A little bit of sexiness into
these clothes.

Yeah.

Michelle, patricia, stanley,

You're in.

I won't disappoint you,
either.

I promise.

Daniel, I'm sorry.
That means you're out.

This is project runway.

Good morning, final three.

Good morning, tim.

You've made it to
mercedes-benz fashion week at

Lincoln center.

Congratulations!

Thank you.

Well, I want to review what's
happening today.

Later this morning, you're going
to have your makeup

Consultations with l'oreal.

Think about the entire arc of

Your collection.

You are here at the 1407

Broadway building
until 11:00 tonight.

Of course, use the lord & taylor

Wall thoughtfully and
strategically.

All right, well, I have
a spectacular surprise for you.

We're going to mood.

Oh!

Oh!
[Laughs]

Yay. Good.

You will have $500.

Yay.

You'll have 30 minutes here

To go through everything, make

Notes about what you need to

Buy, sketch, whatever you need

To do to make it work.

Based on the critique, I do

Need to remove some of

The flair.

I think that just being simple

Is the best way to
approach this.

I need to make my collection

Cohesive.

Mm-hmm.

Go, go, go.

Designers, time is up.

Thank you, mood.

Let's head back to



[Horns honking]

Hi, how are you?

Good. My name is michelle.

Michelle, I'm billy.

So what you got?

I've got swatches.

And then my original plan

That they totally bagged on the

Runway, but I still kind of

Loved most of it.

So we're gonna start with
a colour riche quad.

This one's called cupa joe.

It's great. It's four
shades of basically

Beige and brown.

For the lash, this
l'oreal super slim.

It's so great.

It's got this super-fine felt
tip applicator.

Let's talk about mouth.

Like, the lip will be matte, but

Her skin will have a really
pretty sheen.

Hey, stanley. We're gonna
start with a true

Match super blendable

Crayon concealer.

That'll give us a good,
clean base.

The visible lift blush has this
beautiful sheen.

We're gonna use the caresse wet

Shine stain, so it just will
give the lips a little bit of

Color and voluminosity, which
keeps it sexy.

That's perfect.

That's my dress that--

Wow.

I'm thinking a very finished,

Polished, monochromatic
statement.

It's very chic to, I think, keep

This kind of a nude palette.

Have a seat on my throne.

I loved the hair.

I loved the hair too.

You were definitely in the right

Direction with tousledness
and stuff.

The continuity would be better

With everybody if it's kind of

Back and tousled.

I'm gonna use the everstyle

Beach spray.

It's perfect because it gives it

That beachy, saltwater feel.

Finish it off with some elnett.

And this is definitely more

Sophisticated but still just as

Messy, dirty girl.

She is still tousled and

Messy, like you want,
but runway ready.

What I'd like to do, and what

I would think would look a

Little sexier and more modern

Is, rather than go with the

Height on the top is to actually

Go with a little width towards

The bottom, so I'm gonna start

With some root lifting spray,

Just for some control, and then

Just brush it out.

Yeah.

It's much younger.

It's younger, it's modern.

It's really pretty.

I like it a lot.

You've got all kind
of fun stuff.

I'm excited.

So the horsehair, you want to

Carry throughout the
whole collection.

Yes.

Well, I have an idea.

I love when we had braided her

Hair and then we can incorporate

That in the braid.

-Hi everyone.
-Hi

Michelle.

Yes?

Talk to me.

The constructive criticism

From the judges spurred on this

First look.

It gives me a moment of
neutral with color.

I'm crazy about this.

Oh, fabulous.

I mean, really. And I
like the subtlety of it.

Stanley, I'm eager to see

What you have in addition to

What you showed to the judges

For the preview.

Well, I took all their advice

And just applied it to
what I'm doing now.

Okay.

I look at these two pieces,
and all that I can think of is

That you went to a vintage shop.

Okay. I-i get that.

You need to push back at this
vintage aspect.

-Off we go.
-Off we go.

Is this the scarf that was on
that dress?

Yes.

Okay, so you only have one.

I have two others.

I just can't find them.

What do you mean, you can't
find them?

They're in here somewhere.

And then, look it, that
hole is still showing.

I have to say, it's
mercedes-benz fashion week.

You can't send a black leather

Pant with two holes in it.

Let's talk about this.

I'm not at all crazy about what

Happens here at this bustline.

Even just to bring it up to the

Shoulder like that.

Yeah, but you can see

Her shape better.

So everything just improved.

Yeah, just by a little lift.

Exactly. It was all here.

Maybe I've got to do
that to myself.

Everything needs a lift.

Everything needs a lift.

I feel so much better now

Than I did when I first stepped
into your workspace.

I have to say, I'm so proud
of each of you, but you've got a

Lot of work to do, so I'm gonna
leave you.

See you later.

Bye.

I should have got this done

Earlier, but I didn't.

'Cause they're gonna start

Coming, like, boom, boom, boom,

Boom!

Yeah.

I'm very proud for all three.

You all put on a great show.

I think that the audience

Enjoyed it.

It was very exciting.

Congratulations.

I'm so proud of all of you.

What I was impressed by was

The fact that I saw very

Distinct points of view from

Each of you.

All right, let's get this

Party started.

Let's bring out your models.

Michelle, tell us about your
inspiration and your collection.

Using it kind of as a

Metaphor for what I've gone

Through, my inspiration has been

A lone female wolf.

She's lost her pack.

She's on a mission.

She's looking for that
last k*ll to survive.

What have you gone through?

Oh, this whole process is
a nightmare!

Oh, my god!

You know?

And, in a way, I lost my pack.

I lost 15 designers.

I went home.

I was by myself.

And this is my last k*ll.

And I need this k*ll to survive.

It is a great story.

It's nice when, you know,

A designer is on the runway and

Actually thought of it from

Beginning to end.

You can see it in a collection,

But also, it is personal to you

Too.

I thought you had

A phenomenal opening.

Thank you.

That was a great dress to

Open with.

And I thought that you offered a

Lot of pieces.

You can take things apart, and

They all work, or they can all

Be interchangeable.

There were a few standouts.

The coat that you showed us the

Last time, I still love.

The yellow dress with the nude,

I'm crazy about.

But what I'm most crazy about

Was the heart sweater.

Please send me a heart sweater.

Yes.

The heart sweater was

Phenomenal.

Thank you.

I loved, loved, loved

The opening look.

Loved the fabric combos.

I thought, in general, your

Fabric combinations, they were

Interesting and disparate, but

Somehow, they melded together.

But a felt gown?

No, melton coating wool.

You're talking to a guy who

Lives for, like, heavy fabrics,

But eh, eh, eh.

Like a cardboard box.

Michael and I looked at each

Other when it was on the runway.

We're like--oh!

Now, do I think in the melton,

Is that a fabulous short dress?

Yes.

Absolutely.

I thought it was a very

Cohesive collection, from

Beginning to end.

There are some silhouettes in

Your show that are not my

Favorite silhouettes.

Mm-hmm.

Not very hip friendly, let's

Say.

But you do play with shapes, and

It is a runway show, and this is

New york city, and you went for

It, so why not?

I thought you did a good job.

Thank you.

One thing threw me off.

The chiffon scarves tied like

Men's ties.

Yes.

Oh, see, i--okay.

'Cause the clothes were so

Modern, and I was like, "why did

She add that?"

It's costumey.

Okay.

And nothing you showed was

Costumey.

I think your clothing is

Beautifully made.

I know who you are, and you

Applied that into one message on

The runway.

Amazing work.

Patricia, tell us about your

Inspiration and your collection.

My inspiration for my

Collection was based upon trees.

So, did you make all the

Textiles?

-Everything that we saw?
-Yes, I did.

F the textile wasn't made, the
embellishment that goes on

Top of it, I made.

And the sequins and the jewelry

Is all made in my stepfather's

Blacksmith shop.

I mix my own paints, my dyes.

Mix my own chemicals to burn out

The velvet.

I buy the silver so it's all

Coiled and cut, soldered and

Pounded and textured, so

Everything, you know, starts

From scratch.

I try to bring native american

Culture in a very modernistic

Way.

I think this is fabulous.

I loved the suede chambray

Shirt and the shorts.

Same attitude.

I love that you took the

Craftiness that obviously comes

Second nature to you and put it

Into some clothes that could

Work in the city.

Of course, the most madcap

Outfit was the horse kind of

Skirt with the full headpiece,

Which I thought was so insane,

I loved it.

What I noticed was the crowd.

All of a sudden, I saw people's

Face light up, smiles.

Oh, nice.

I've been a fan of yours

Since the beginning.

I enjoy the difference in your
clothes.

I don't get super excited about

A great-fitting pair of black

Pants and a great blazer.

I get excited for something like

This.

I also love that you
make your fabrics.

This dress, for example, did you

Make the fabric for this dress?

Yes, I did.

I mean, that is a stunning

Fabric.

Personally, I would have not

Worn this red piece under it,

Because that was too much for

Me, but I love that dress.

That is such a beautiful,
easy dress.

And the fabric, that you can

Make this all on your own,
I think is amazing.

Thank you.

I love the look in front of us.

It's like techno powwow.

[Laughs] yeah.

It works for me.

I love the movement.

And when you can put a smile on

Somebody's face in a

Fashion-tainment moment, it's

Wonderful.

I remembered it.

I think some of your textiles,

When they're in the scarves and

In shapes that just feel older,

It just doesn't feel fresh.

I like when you take it to a way

More abstract place.

It starts to become magic then.

[Laughs]

Patricia, I think it's

Unanimous.

We all recognize that you have

Incredible talent for bringing

Something to the table that is

Unique, and I happen to love

-This dress.
-Thank you.

And the power of this dress

Is that you've been able to

Connect this originality that

You have with a shape that is

Very classic, very

Understandable.

There were a few pieces that

Were very strong, but then there

Were a few pieces that felt

Very--in terms of silhouette--

The colors might have been

Beautiful, but in terms of the

Silhouette and the styling,

There was a real disconnection.

You have such gift of

Creativity.

You just have to make it more

Understandable.

I think the artistry is

Spectacular.

I mean, really spectacular.

Thank you.

Stanley, tell us about your

Inspiration.

I studied lots of techniques

Like embroideries and beadwork

And tapestries and handwork, and

I chose different eras of

Fashion, like, from the '50s to

'60S, and so I just came up with

What you guys saw on
the runway today.

I loved the gold coat dress.

I just liked the sleeve.

I liked the cut of it.

I thought it was a fun piece.

I loved the strapless, little

Matelasse brocade bubble dress,

And I loved the little
white dress.

I thought those three pieces had

A youthful sophistication.

This, it's, you know, betty

White on dancing with the stars.

-I mean, it's...
-No.

Old. It's like the length from
hell. She's holly hobbie.

The beading was very

Effective.

However, I think the choice of

The mix of materials, it felt

Dated.

That being said, women love

Things that twinkle.

Yeah.

I did like that you, um,

Cut--i called it the dirndl

Dress last time.

I liked that you cut
that into a top.

That, to me, looked much better.

I did notice a lot of--it almost

Looked like quick sewing, for

Some reason.

Like, there was, for example,

The coat, but I noticed
how wavy the hem was.

Did you just chop that off,
last minute?

No, it was the sewers.

We had some sewers backstage
that were helping us.

They hand-sewed it, and I was
trying to press it out, but--

That was a little
bit surprising.

Yeah.

Just coming from you, because

You are so--

Precise.

Precise.

You know, you have been in the

Past, and that's what has been

Stuck in my brain.

I think the black pants were
superbly cut.

I wish that you would have used

Those black pants with that

Little beaded short top that I'm

Insanely crazy about, because I

Think it is--

Yeah, it needs to be

Separated.

It is gorgeous.

Mm-hmm.

There are some pieces here

That are really phenomenal, that

I would be like, "i-i want
that special piece."

Yeah, I thought the white
one was beautiful.

But you need to bring them to
the 21st century.

Okay. Thank you.

Stanley, why should you win

Project runway?

I think I have a clear message
about fashion design,

And I think I can execute it

Very well, and I think I can

Represent the show very well

And, uh, be very
successful at it.

Michelle, why should you win

Project runway?

I got a unique creativity and a
voice that is going

Towards the future and creating

A new woman that possibly

Doesn't even know
she exists yet.

Yeah, I think I should win this.

Patricia.

I think I should win

Project runway because I can

Then continue to create new
techniques and ideas and,

In all honesty, it
helps to give a

Voice that has never been heard

Before.

Okay, we've heard what you
had to say.

We have a very big decision to

Make, and I'm gonna bring you

Back out in a little bit.

You can leave the runway.

Thank you.

Thank you.

We have a big decision
to make today.

Let's start with stanley.

I think there were some

Good-looking clothes.

Absolutely.

But I don't know if
it was special.

-It's nice, it's not special.
-Nice.

He took a budget and had
stuff embroidered.

You know, it wasn't him

Embroidering all of it.

It just--i don't think it felt

Very exciting.

It looked like a dress out of

A catalogue.

I just couldn't say
that to his face.

I think that's being a
little too harsh.

Matronly.

It was just old styled.

If we had seen those same

Off-proportions in wild colors

Or something, maybe that would

Have taken it somewhere there.

You know, just, the color was

Old, the embroidery was old.

But I did think there were

Some special pieces, and if you

Dissembled them, you
could do something.

I liked the little
white dress.

There were some nice pieces
in there, for sure.

I liked the white dress, but
that's not a collection.

That's not a collection.

You look at stanley, where
you just saw that he didn't have

This kind of gusto to do it

Properly, and then you look at

The other two designers who,

They both really had something

To say.

Stanley didn't have
anything to say.

What did you think about
patricia?

When I look at the work that
this woman does--

It's incredible.

Wow!

How cool, new.

New, different.

You know, when I looked at

That dress, that was this

Perfect culmination of a modern,

Easy shape that a girl wants to

Put on, with this incredible--it
was mica?

It's--yeah, mica chips from
the adobe--

That's fabulous.

And horsehair.

-That's her horsehair.
-And that horsehair!

I mean, I loved that she took

All of that and merged that

Together.

That's spectacular.

It's different.

Well, her stuff is always
gonna be unique and special,

Because it's handmade.

That's why also she got here,

Because she did have major

Moments that surprised us,
that we loved.

I think she's thinking

Outside the box.

Yeah, it's pure.

Let's talk about michelle.

I loved her story, her journey

Here and this is the last k*ll,

Is her win on project runway.
I do love that.

And the sort of huntress
urban woman worked in her

Clothing.

I loved the quilting.

The yellow quilting with the
camel, I thought was great.

-Oh, so--that combination--
-loved the color together.

I thought it was boring,
the quilting.

We're all gonna be
wearing this sweater.

I love not only that it
had the bleeding heart.

I liked that the sleeves were
just kind of dipped in blood.

I did think she didn't need
that hat.

I agree with zac. That tie,
mustard outfit--

This is the first time
all season.

[Laughter]

I feel like there was a cusp
on costume there.

Yeah.

This tunic with the "v"
point--

-Yeah.
-I felt a little robin hood.

She styled this and layered
it to make sense.

You might not wear the robin

Hood collar blouse, but you

Might wear that little vest.

You might want the skirt.

Oh, well, listen, I do that.

That's how we put a show
together.

I mean, I might show it in the

Most kind of outrageous way.

-Outrageous way.
-And then, in real life, every

Woman looks at something and

She's like, "could I wear it
with jeans?"

Yep.

And I think that her
pieces have that.

I guess the question is, do

We value sellable items,

Desirable items?

And on the other hand, with

Patricia, we're saying, maybe

Some of them really weren't in a

Good place, but the pieces that

Were working were really

Working for us as a concept.

I think that patricia is

Incredibly talented, but I think

That we are being a little

Swayed by her artisanal

Techniques.

I don't know.

I wish so too that there were

Some more wearable silhouettes.

Can she apply the artistry

Into clothes that make sense in

Modern life?

Should we have our

Project runway winner be a
person like this

With a new vision, with a new
art?

Michelle--she made real

Clothing and did a real

Fashion show.

I think she is of the moment.

I think she's aware of

The zeitgeist.

Yes, she knows what's
going on.

No, I mean, I do love that

She's fashion forward.

And here's the other thing

About patricia.

I don't even understand who
the customer is.

Maybe it wouldn't be the

Biggest commercial empire that

She's gonna build out of here.

That's very clear.

But I think it's intriguing.

Okay, so we've made our

Decision?

Yeah.

Great, let's bring
them back out.

One of you will be the
winner of

Project runway...

♪ ♪

Designers, it was a
fabulous

Show today.

Thank you.

And you should all be proud

Of yourselves for getting into

This final stage of
project runway.

Stanley your connection was very
polished, and there were

Some really special and

Beautiful pieces, but overall,

It was not as modern as we would

Have liked.

Okay.

I'm sorry, you're out.

Okay.

We wish you all the best and

Good luck.

Auf wiedersehen.

I may not have won project
runway, but I've won on

So many levels.

It's taught me a lot about
myself, especially the team

Thing, because the team aspect

Scared the crap out of me

Because I don't like people.

[Laughs]

Patricia, michelle,

One of you will be the winner

Of project runway.

Michelle your collection
was original and had a very

Strong point of view.

It told a story.

Some of the pieces, we felt,

Were a little costumey, but we

Were in love with most of your

Pieces.

The collection was modern,

Confident, and personal.

Patricia, we expected your

Collection to be one-of-a-kind,

And it definitely was.

It was so refreshing to see you

Incorporate your heritage into

Your amazing fabrics and

Embellishments.

The collection could have been

A little bit more cohesive, but

You march to the beat of your

Own drummer, and we love that

About you.

Thank you.

Patricia...

♪ ♪

I'm sorry you're out.

Thank you for everything,

Everybody.

I appreciate all the advice.

We loved what you did.

Auf wiedersehen.

Love you, michelle.

I love you too.

To be up against stanley and
michelle and to come in second

Is just beyond anything I could

Ever imagine.

I'm so honored, I'm grateful,

I'm excited.

Michelle.

Oh, my god.

You are the winner of
project runway.

-Congratulations
-thank you, heidi.

Mwah!

Mwah!

Wow, you are shaking.

My knees are knocking.

You did the k*ll.

I did get a k*ll.

You did.

I can survive!

Are you surprised?

I felt that I could do it

From day one, and I thought my

Collection was the best, but

Every designer should think that

Their collection is the best.

Absolutely.

Well, that's what we always

Loved about you.

You always stood
behind your work.

Yes.

I'm so proud of you, I have
tears in my eyes.

You have an incredible future
ahead of you.

Enjoy it, and be that
warrioress.

Thank you.

Keep your confidence, keep

Your focus, and go for the k*ll.

Because a designer--you're

Gonna have to go in for the k*ll

Four times a year for a long,

Long time to come, and I think

We're gonna see some great

Things from you.

Holy cow, michael kors.

Thank you.

I've worked hard before.

I've worked really hard...

Holy cow!

For other people, but I've never

Worked hard for myself, and I've

Never worked hard for my vision,

And it's a totally different

Experience.

Oh!

[Cheering]

We have another winner.

Congratulations.

I'm so glad I saw you.

Lisa, you are going to have a

Fashion spread in marie claire

And $25,000 from l'oreal paris
advanced haircare.

Wow.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

And we have one more person
who's dying to congratulate you.

Tim gunn.

Tim gunn!

I'm so thrilled for you.

Congratulations.

You were like a flying dutchman

Of doom.

[Laughter]

When you were on your team and

You didn't change teams, the

Team was on the bottom every
time.

Finally you change, and what
happened?

She's won!

My dream is to be successful

And really love what I do, so,

Yeah, this is a dream come true.

Next time on project runway...

-That's not being truthful.
-It is being truthful.

Those are my [bleep] feelings.

I think benjamin talks

A bunch of bull.

Let's tell it how it is.

You clearly did not want to

Work with patricia.

Patricia could do no wrong

In heidi's eyes.

Do you think I'm immature?

Don't look at her.

She's like medusa.

[Laughter]

Do you wish you'd stuck up

For yourself a little bit more?

It was not fair to me at all.

If you don't bite back,

You're not gonna survive.

So michelle and leann
are b*tches.

Yeah.

Yes.

Ooh!

I feel bad for you.

What you didn't--you didn't
see is that I almost quit.

You got me good on that one.

-I'm sorry
-um...
