Hi, everyone.

Good morning.

I'd love to have you gather

'Round, right over here, please.

Oh, my sweet jesus.

Designers, last evening, I

Told you that I would meet you

In the workroom with a very

Special guest.

Well, that's about to happen.

This special guest has been

Nominated for multiple emmys.

He is an activist.

Please welcome the star of

Modern family,

Jesse tyler ferguson.

Oh, my god!

Hi!

Hello!

Hi!

Designers, all the bow ties

That you see have been provided

By jesse, because this is a bow

Tie challenge if there ever were

One.

I vomited bow ties upon you.

[Laughter]

Um, I'm assuming you've all

Heard the marriage term, "tie

The knot."

Well, we decided to do a play on

Words and bring it into the

Fashion world with our own line

Of bow ties called "tie the

Knot."

Jesse and his fiance justin

Began a charitable foundation

Called tie the knot.

They design and sell these

Stunning ties, and the proceeds

Are donated to support marriage

Equality, which is a wonderful

Cause, and we thank you.

Yay me, yay me, yay.

Yeah, I roll that boulder alone.

Uh, no.

Uh, it's obviously a very

Important cause, and is really

Resonant with me right now,

Because justin and I are

Actually planning our wedding

Now.

So, designers, for this

Challenge, the bow tie will

Serve as the point of departure

For whatever it is that you

Create, and you can create

Anything, but at least one bow

Tie must be incorporated into

That look.

All right, it's time to start

Your challenge.

So, you will have 30 minutes to

Sketch.

Then we're going shopping at

Mood, where you will also have



You have a suggested budget of

$200.

And jesse is our guest judge!

[Cheers and applause]

Yay, I'm very excited.

Yes!

So, your sketching time starts

Now, and jesse and I are gonna

Head off.

I'm extremely happy with how

The dress fits her.

The shirting is reading on the

Runway exactly how I wanted it

To read.

The bow ties are popping the way

I wanted them to pop.

I'm just really, really happy

With how my garment turned out.

I used the bow ties more from

A conceptual perspective, as the

Banners over the jacket.

The jacket's amazing, but the

Pants might have missed the mark

A little.

I love my look, coming down

The runway.

I'm really having fun with light

Colors popping on her skin and

The deeper colors fading into

Her own skin tone.

I think I used ties in a very

Creative way.

I used my ties in the seams

Of the dress in a way that

Works to my aesthetic very well,

And it does not look like a

Costume.

The only regret that I have with

My garment is the exposed zipper

In the back.

I don't like the wave effect

That it's giving.

But with the time condition, I

Just had to make it work.

I'm really proud of my

Design.

I tend to use a lot of loud

Prints and color, so I feel like

This garment really fit my

Aesthetic.

I feel really confident, though

I feel like I may have made the

Wrong choice, cropping my shirt.

Yeah, it's good.

It's cool.

Seeing my model on the runway,

I felt a lot better about it.

I thought it walked better than

It looked.

I'm hoping that the judges see

What I was seeing.

It's so exciting to see my

Bow-tie outfit.

I'm so happy with it.

It's my best one yet.

I worked the bow ties perfectly,

Better than anyone else.

It's strong.

It's exactly upper east side-ish

Color, and that's the purpose

Why I took silver metallic

Color bow ties.

With light pinkish, it's perfect

Match.

She looks so good, sandro.

I think I gonna be a winner.

I'm really happy.

I think she looks amazing.

I feel confident that I

Incorporated the ties more so

Than most.

I think it's very avant-garde.

I don't think that everyone will

Understand it, but I like it.

Overall, I am happy with my

Garment.

I transformed the bow tie

And make it integrating into my

Design.

Unfortunately, it just doesn't

Have the impact I am hoping for.

I'm really proud of myself

For coming out of my comfort

Zone and doing some ready to

Wear.

I just hope jesse can see that

This outfit is based on the tie,

And I hope that comes across on

The runway.

I am so excited.

Like, she does look like the

Chic woman who's going out on

The town with her boyfriend.

I am just so happy, because it

Seems like the judges are

Receiving the look really well.

It's like, yay!

You know, I might actually be in

The top today.

I wanted to make something

Clean and smart looking, just

Like, you know, one would look

Like when they wear a bow tie.

My look turned out exactly the

Way I envisioned it.

Am wondering if last time you

Won because you had kate as your

Partner.

So, I would love to see

Something better for next time.

Okay, designers.

I have a question.

Please.

I would love to know some

Notes and comments about my

Garment.

What do you guys think?

It looks like somebody went

Home with a man in an evening

Gown and came back with a tie

Attached to it and half her

Dress ripped.

It looked like the walk of shame

After an award show.

Oh.

Beside, I have 11 hours, not

Even day.

Very impressive, the

Construction in it.

The taste and the story behind

It wasn't very flattering.

Sandro, you are safe today.

You know that, right?

I'm trying to, guys, get

Direction from you, what do you

Want to see from me.

You have to focus your taste.

It's too many ideas in one.

Mm-mm.

Yes.

Heidi, would you wear that pink

Dress?

Uh, no.

This challenge about heidi

Gonna wear it or it's about how

You see designers, what they

Created?

But I don't know who you are

As a designer.

You don't see my signature?

No.

Why?

Because it all looks

Referential to other designers.

So, that's how I'm learning.

I'm a student.

This isn't project runway,

The student show.

Okay.

Sandro, today you're safe.

Maybe the next time, you're up

Here for the high or the lower

Score, and then we will discuss

Your look.

Thank you, designers.

You can leave the runway.

That is [bleep] up.

So, they have the nerve to say

That the only reason I won

Last challenge was because of

Kate?

Like, are you [bleep] kidding

Me?

Like, is that a big [bleep]

Joke?

Like, we worked together.

Now you get the point, how

Bitchy they can be?

That's bull[bleep].

That's why I decide to fight.

Otherwise, they're gonna do like

What they did with you.

That was bad, sandro.

Huh?

That was bad.

Bad?

Mm-hmm.

I no deserve to understand

What's going on?

Just--just go?

But you're still here.

You should have been quiet.

I'm not gonna be quiet.

They could have sent you

Home.

That wasn't the time and

Place to talk to the judges.

Why?

Because you're being

Disrespectful.

That's the bot--

To who?

I just decided to talk.

You're safe.

They didn't have anything poor

To say about your garment.

And I understand you want

Criticism, so you know what to

Do next time...

Absolutely.

But I got ripped apart again

And then all the credit given to

Someone else.

You can ask.

But I'm not gonna scream at

Judges that just ripped my--

Who scream?

Ripped me a new [bleep].

I putted my hand up and

Asked.

But just put yourself in my

Shoes.

Why I have to put it in

Shoes?

Because I was barely safe!

Don't you get that?

Never scream at me.

But you don't understand!

Never yell at me!

Okay, but you don't

Understand because--

We're friends here.

I know we're friends.

So, please, your voice make

Down!

It's really awkward.

I-i apologize for raising my

Voice, but you should be proud

That you're safe, because--

Why am I proud?

If I save somebody [bleep] life,

I have to be proud.

Why you crying, then?

You have no respect.

Models.

All right, bradon, tell us about

Your look.

Uh, I love textiles.

That's usually where I start

Designing, and I mix it all

Together.

The top is completely made of

Ties.

I was putting them together with

A hand stitch that's actually

Called faggoting, which I

Sort of a serious, very serious

Pun, because I appreciate what

Your organization does.

Bradon, I think it's

You love bow ties.

So pretty.

So cool.

I think the colors and the

Melange of textures are

Fabulous.

You do it very well.

It feels modern, still antique,

And she looks fabulous.

One of the reasons I started

This specifically with bow ties

Is because I feel like people

Who wear bow ties are being a

Little extra bold and a little

More loud, and that's something

I feel like we need for marriage

Equality.

And this certainly is brave, and

It's really--it's a fantastic--

It's a home run.

Thank you so much.

Dom, tell us about your look.

So, when we first received

The challenge from jesse and

Tim, the one thing that kind of

Stood out to me was the symbol

Of the equal sign, so I decided

To go for all the really boldly

Striped ties, because to me,

Those lines were very, uh,

Reminiscent of the equal sign.

Your model looks amazing

Again.

It's a lot of stripes to play

With, and it all works.

This is so adorable.

I love the happiness that this

Dress has.

It's a celebration, and this

Is a celebratory dress.

Foundation and really made it

Something special and just

Beyond putting a tie on a dress.

Out that you made this dress.

Zac wrote, "octopussy," and I

Wrote, "sigourney weaver in

Alien."

It feels like you didn't put a

Lot of effort in it.

Disappointing.

I kind of equated it to

Coming out of the sea, covered

In kelp.

It just--it kind of just--it

Sort of hangs there, and it was

Trailing behind, and it just--

It didn't have the elegance that

I think you were hoping for.

I do think this is a failure, a

Little bit.

I appreciate your comments.

Thank you, sue.

All right, jeremy, tell us about

Your look.

Okay. Hello.

So, the look I created for

Roberta today was focusing on

A couple of different points of

Inspiration.

I'm sorry to bring up that my

Gran died on saturday, and she

Was a young girl in the late

'30S and early '40s, and I

Wanted this to be an homage to

Her.

I started with my color

Palette and came up with the

Look that roberta's wearing

Today.

First of all, I'm very sorry

To hear about your grandmother

Passing.

Thank you.

What can I say?

Here you have a gorgeous girl,

Roberta.

She's beautiful.

And you made her look madame.

Yes.

It doesn't look modern.

I just don't see anything hip

Or fashion forward in your look.

Your clothing looks

Beautifully made, but I think

The overall effect is sort of

Lackluster.

Sure.

And I do have an offensive

Problem with her belly button.

You're highlighting her tummy

Eye.

Good point.

Now that bugs me too.

Now I'm staring at it.

It's winking.

Yeah.

Jeremy, I appreciate the work

That you've put into this top.

However, this feels very grown

Up, very serious.

She looks like a really

Gorgeous 68-year-old actress

Receiving her kennedy center

Honors.

You know, I mean, she looks

Wonderful, but she's--it does

Feel very old.

Not to make excuses, I was

Slightly off my game yesterday.

I applaud you for working

Through...

Thank you.

Heartbreak.

Kate, tell us about your

Look.

So, for this look, I was

Definitely inspired by your

Cause.

I wanted to do a nod to the

Traditional men's wedding wear,

Which would be a tuxedo, but I

Really wanted to acknowledge

The bow tie a lot, so we have

The bow tie up here from your

Collection, and then we have

The silhouette of the bow tie

Here, continued down as a

Modified tuxedo stripe, and then

In the back, this is the

Silhouette of the bow tie that's

Continued there on the little

Strap on the back.

I think this is a very sexy

And very modern look.

I especially love the pants.

I think it's just really cool,

And it looks hot and modern, and

I want it.

To me, this is very fashion

Forward.

The pants are sick.

I'm a sucker for pants anytime,

And good, well-made pants...

That was a head-to-toe look.

Thank you, kate.

Miranda, tell us about your

Look.

As a woman that was in the

Military for eight years,

Gender bending is something I

Always kind of did, because

I wore a man's uniform every

Single day, so I really wanted

To make something structural and

Beautiful, masculine and

Feminine.

[Exhales]

I don't think the challenge was

To hide the bow tie completely.

Still, I can't see it.

I don't know where it is.

It's just this entire collar.

Like, I feel like I want to

See it used somewhere in a

Clever way.

It looks very '80s to me, this

Whole look.

Okay.

For me, the top is the k*ller

Here.

I agree.

Um, I think that's where I

Started to get lost.

We already get it.

You can make a really

Nice-fitting pencil skirt.

I need to see what you can make

More.

Making a jacket is not easy.

I just wish you would have

Focused on something a little

More modern.

I completely understand.

I love the idea of blurring

The line between masculine and

Feminine.

It's just, I'm sure the time got

Away from you, and it just did

Not turn out well.

Thank you, miranda.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

Okay, we've heard what you

Had to say.

We're gonna have a closer look

At your designs, and then I'm

Gonna call you back on the

Runway.

Thank you.

Tim is bringing out the models

So we can take a closer look at

The garments.

Hi, tim.

Hi, heidi.

Ladies.

Hello.

Heidi, before we get

Involved in looking at these

Garments, I need to inform you

About a recent development.

It concerns sandro.

Mm-hmm.

After he left the runway,

He got into a very heated, angry

Argument and exchange with some

Of the other designers.

He bolted from the building.

He's missing.

We're looking for him.

No!

And as we progress through

The day, we'll give you updates.

All right, ladies.

Molly, why don't you come

Forward?

I love that she pushed

Herself out of her comfort zone.

I am so proud of her.

I agree.

So proud of her.

I especially love the back.

This, to me, is super sexy.

Mm-hmm.

Super beautiful.

And the pants are amazing.

We love the pants.

The pants are amazing.

Just where she placed the

Leather was different.

Really, she's just growing in

Strides.

Dom did it again.

She's sticking out as a very

Good designer.

I'm crazy about this.

It's playful, and she says

This is a very simple dress.

I mean, that is not simple, to

Me.

No.

It's a showstopper.

I mean, it's beautiful, how it,

Like, hugs your body...

Oh, it's like a bib.

Perfectly.

Yeah, look, there's, like,

Three-dimension to it.

Wow, yeah, it's great.

She has a great eye.

Liliana, why don't you come

Forward?

Yeah.

She was very upset with us, I

Thought.

Can I also tell you

Something?

The suggested amount was $200.

Right.

Sue spent $400.

On what?

It's just cut matte jersey.

Yeah.

There was no thought here.

No, listen, it's fine to do a

Clean cut, but then it has to be

A wow as an effect.

This looks like we're going

To a flea market and there's a

Little stand of someone making

These strange spider web things

Made out of ties.

I also don't know if the bow

Ties are the right material to

Use for that experiment.

Shaya.

Hey, baby.

She's scared. Oh.

In many ways, I feel

Responsible for what happened to

The top.

This top was going to be a '50s

Secretary thing, with the

Cascading ruffle and flourish,

And I said to her, "if you want

To do that, you need to sex it

Up somehow."

I was not expecting a bare

Midriff, by any means.

I mean, the way this, like,

Stands out like this, I mean,

And then she did it in green.

Why she wasted all this time

That you don't even see.

There's many problems here.

Well, you always talk about a

Taste level on this show, and

That's where I'm having the

Concerns.

I just keep seeing the same

Pencil skirt over and over

Again, every challenge.

I'm not seeing a designer yet

Here.

Roberta, you want to come

Out?

I feel bad for roberta.

Yeah.

Gorgeous, young model, and

They aged you by 40 years.

But do look at the jacket.

It's beautifully made.

It's gorgeous.

You know what I mean?

It is beautiful.

The edging is fabulous.

He used the lace and pastiched

It together.

I can appreciate that he can

Do fine work, but I wish I would

Have seen something more

Contemporary.

Yeah.

Or cooler.

Yeah.

It didn't work.

Ya, come on over.

This, I love.

Oh, wow.

She looks so cool.

That's one of my favorite

Ties.

That's beautiful.

Yeah.

I love how he made this top.

Oh, that's what that stitch

Looks like.

Look at this.

I mean, that is a lot of

Work.

Crazy.

He had to do this all by

Hand.

It's very good.

I love it.

His pieces are labored and

Are a labor of love.

Mm-hmm.

Without looking labored.

Thank you. Thank you, tim.

Thank you, models.

Thank you.

Bye.

♪ ♪

Designers, I have an update

For you.

Sandro has basically eliminated

Himself, and due to his behavior

And outbursts, he will not be

Able to return to the

Competition.

And that is a little lucky for

You guys.

[Laughs]

All three of you are safe.

You can leave the runway.

Thank you.

Thank you.

It's kind of like a catch 22,

I guess, 'cause I feel like it

Probably would have been me

That went home.

Hello!

[Laughs]

Oh! All three?

All three.

You're safe?

We're all safe.

At the sacrifice of sandro.

Oh, my gosh.

He's going home.

No way!

I'm feeling sad because

Sandro's leaving.

I'm feeling sad because I'm here

Because he left.

Hey, tim.

Bradon.

Yes.

I'm sorry, I'm choking up.

That was the dearest, sweetest

Declaration on that runway.

Thank you.

Oh!

[Applause]

Thank you, tim.

Congratulations.

And thanks for the challenge.

Who knew so much would happen

With this challenge?

I know.

Sandro is not returning.

Sad it may be.

Necessary, it is.

[Upbeat music]

Yay.

Hi.

How are you?

Good.

Crazed.

Do you guys have access to tv

For the news or anything like

That?

Zero.

I realized you probably

Didn't know about the stuff

Going on in the news today.

The supreme court issued a

Complete dismissal of prop 8.

Will you marry me?

Yes, yes, yes!

Oh!

[Kisses]

I have a surprise for you.

No.

Yeah.

What?

I wasn't gonna tell you about

This until the episode aired,

But I proposed to you.

Really?

Really.

Thanks.

So, I beat you to it, even

Though I didn't tell you yet.

[Laughs]

Well, I guess we had the same

Idea.

I can't believe I get to grow

Old with you.

Ah, well, we're halfway

You're working in teams of

Three.

I am so excited.

This is your unconventional

Oh, my gosh, it's beautiful.

This makes me sick.

Ken, sue, and alexandria?

That's a recipe for disaster.

I'm not gonna talk to my damn

Self.

It's gonna be world w*r iii.

Nothing like working with a

Diva.

Totally unprecedented that a

Model would leave not dressed.

Holy [bleep].

It feels like a cocoon

Without a butterfly.

Bad, weird, funky, ugly.

I would suggest to you not

Even to look at me.

I'm speaking, so I need you to

Be quiet.
