"Previously on Project Runway..." "Your challenge will be to design a pregnancy chic look for Rebecca Romijin." "Oh, [bleep], pregnancy challenge." "Oh, my God." "The shorts are looking sloppy." "The concept is fertility." " She's fertile." " That's her egg." "Malvin." "Imagine yourself saying that on the runway." "Congratulations..." "Shirin." "The shorts are too short." "The T-shirt's too tight." "Your chicken egg look was just too bizarre." "You're out." "Mitchell, you just squeaked by." "You have to show us that you deserve to be here." "This is Project Runway." "Of course I'm the best." "Let's do this." "The search for the next big fashion designer." "I have to win." "You better watch out." "Sixteen designers." "I'm in, you're out." "Don't get cut." "Three finalists will make it to Mercedes-Benz fashion week." "I'm the best designer here." "I have no fear." "Make it work." "That's my line." "But only one can be the winner." "This is my dream." "For these sixteen designers," "Project Runway is the chance of a lifetime." "The winner of Project Runway will receive a fashion spread in marie claire magazine, a Paris vacation courtesy of Evian, and $100,000 from L'Oreal Paris to start their own line." "Another day, another dollar." "The fact that one decision" "I don't want to go home." "I know there's a lot more that I can bring to this competition." "I don't wish the bottom three on any of you." "After being in the bottom two again," "I am worried." "I'm concerned." "I'm frustrated." "But I want to stay in this competition." "I just need to keep working on it." " Hi, everybody." " [All] Hi, Heidi." "Shirin, you won the last challenge, which gives you immunity, and you cannot be eliminated." " Thank you." " Congratulations." "Well, I think it's time for another little field trip." "And no visit to California is complete without going to this next destination." "A little hint..." "Don't forget your sunscreen." "I'll see you on the runway." "Bye." "[Mitchell] What were the other clues?" "You can't leave California without going to the beach." "It must be beach." "Being from California, the first thing that pops into my head is the beach." "Oh, we're at the beach." "There's Santa Monica pier right there." "We don't have oceans in Minnesota, so it's kind of nice to see the ocean for the first time." "So we're walking down the beach, and we see Tim Gunn in sandals and sunglasses, but still in a blazer." "Hi, guys." "Hi." "Tim Gunn in flip-flops?" "It's a stretch." "[Tim] Only at the beach." "[Tim] Good morning, designers, and welcome to the heart of California, the beach." "[Cheering] Yeah." "As I'm certain you've anticipated, we're going to explore beach and surf wear." "Today, California surf wear has an identity of its own, one that's evolved beyond the Golden State and has transitioned from sea and sand to the street." "These gorgeous young women behind me personify surf culture and style." "For this challenge, you are to create a fun and fashionable surf wear look." "It's critical that this look be totally infused with your point of view as a designer." "And as you all know by now, it's also critical that you wow the judges with impeccable craftsmanship and style." "And for this Garnier challenge, you're going to wow them with the perfect hairstyle on your model." "And here to tell you more about that is Philip Carreon from Garnier." "At Garnier, we believe that no design is complete without the perfect hairstyle, so my team and I are going to get together with you and create a gorgeous just-off-the-beach look for your models." "Designers, for this challenge, you will be working in teams of two." "[All murmur]" "The moment Tim says this is a team challenge, the bottom of my stomach sinks because it really is the format for anything can happen." "Shirin, as the winner of the last challenge, you are a team leader, and you will be the first to choose your teammate." "So come stand right over here." "All right, our next team leader is Logan." "And Nicolas." "Mitchell." "Althea." "Followed by Qristyl." "And our final team leader is Johnny." "All right, team leaders," "You are going to pick your teammates in the order in which I selected you, beginning with Shirin." "I would like to work with Carol Hannah." "Woo-hoo." "[Tim] Logan, you're next." "I would like the opportunity to work with Christopher." "Oh, God, yeah." "[Tim] Nicolas." "[Nicolas] Gordana." " Mitchell." " I'd like to work with Ra'mon." "I chose to work with Ra'mon." "I wanted to work with someone that could carry me on this challenge." "Althea." "Since you were in the top three last time," "I'm going to go with you." "[Tim] Qristyl." "Oh, boy, this is tough." "But I'm going to choose Epperson." "[Tim] Johnny." "[Designers] Ohh!" "You're teamed with Irina." "The always-beautiful Irina." "All right, teams," "I'm going to give you 20 minutes to caucus." "Use that time to determine the design direction of your surf wear look and to determine which of your two models you're going to use." "And please engage with our lovely surfers because they have valuable information for you, I'm certain." "Your 20 minutes begins now." "Where are my California girls at?" " Right here." " California." "I think that would be really cute if she walked out and she had a dress on." " If she was like..." " Dropped it down." "And then showed off a really hot bathing suit." "It helps to have actual surfer girls to talk to." "Being comfortable is really big for me." "I don't want to be restricted." "They like functionality over actual fashion." "What are your, like, inspirations or favorite colors and things like that?" "I think a lot of surf fashion draws from the colors that you would see in a sunset or a tropical reef." "This is a Brazilian bikini." "Totally different." " Okay." " I just put it on..." "Okay, can I see this?" "Being with Mitchell," "I feel like I have this giant bull's eye painted directly in the middle of my face." "He's been in the bottom two twice." "Even though he's the leader, I feel like I need to step in and give a little guidance for what we should be doing." "You can give me an idea of what you guys like." "In the water?" "I'll start with that." "Yeah." "I think we should go out of the water." " I think we really..." " Out of the water." " Okay, that's fine." " All right." "I'm the captain, so I chose Epperson." "I just really think he's talented, but I'm getting the feeling, like, it's almost like a teacher-student type of thing." "I'm not no damn student." "For California, and, like..." "Hoodies are sometimes good." "[Nicolas] Right." "Sounds interesting." "We have to talk to these surfer girls, and I don't know what the hell she was talking about, but that's..." "Hoodies and little sweatshirts are not for the runway." "All right, design teams, each team has a $50 budget," " and you have 15 minutes to shop." " What?" "So get going." " I'm going to grab." "You take it to cut." " Okay." "Shirin and I have kind of an idea in our head to do basically a dress that turns into a swimsuit." "Over here." "That's too light." "We're going to have to make some sort of compromise." "We're having a little bit of trouble 'cause you have to make the decisions together." "Okay, we don't have time." " Maybe a solid." " Look at this." "Look at this." "No, no, let's not mix prints." "No, but we need a solid." "I like these two." "Not together." "Of course not." "I'm just saying." "Okay, we're running out of time now." " What's this?" " We don't want that feeling." "Yeah, but I..." "Epperson is my partner, but we were clashing." "There's no time to bicker and argue and fight." "Designers, you have five minutes remaining." "Is anyone listening to me?" " Yes." " Yes, sir." "We got, like, limited time, so let's grab everything that we're inspired by." "Ra'mon and I are not agreeing about anything at Mood." "We have different design aesthetics." "He has picked out some pretty, pretty ugly things, and I think we're going to be in trouble." "[Yells]" "Designers, time." "Thank you, Mood." " Thank you." " Bye." "The vision for our look is Bohemian chic." "It's, you know," ""I look cool, but it's so effortless, I don't care."" "I think this is going to be so hippie." "I think it's going to be [bleep] hot." "It's going to be super hippies." "Beachy, cute, chic." "Once this becomes blue..." "'Cause right now, it looks a little bit like zebra." "Like, animalistic, which we'll get rid of." " 'Cause I don't want it to be zebra." " No, me, neither." "No animal prints ever." "My vision right now is an amazing silhouette." "I'm going to bring back the wraparound pant, and underneath I'm doing an amazing bathing suit, which I'm going to hand-dye the fabric and then do, like, an ombre of macramé." "Can you say that a million times... ombre of macramé?" "It has to be perfect." "It can't be "Hmm, why is the top like that?"" "Exactly." "No reason..." "They're going to look for every reason." "No, don't change it." " I'm not changing it." " Okay." "The choice of fabrics was a bright, bright green... a color that I would have never used, but I'm the assistant." "I need some Tylenol." "Oh, yeah, I just took some, too." "[Epperson] The tension, I think, is basically because we're fearful of what could happen." "I'm going into the machine." " Okay." " To put these together." "You go." "I'm just going to do this." "That's fine." "That's not what I need to hear." "In our relationship, I can't always tell you that you're perfect, okay?" "[Ra'mon] I know I'm a strong personality, but it's really important to me, really not knowing where this is going to shake out, that we're as strong as we can be." "So yeah, I'm pulling the weight." "I'll be right back." "Suddenly, I feel like I'm the captain of the team, and that's not necessarily a place I wanted to be." "What does that say on your arm?" "I've wanted to ask you that." "This one." "Keep on working!" "[Gasps]" "No talking." "I'm the captain." "You go away." "[Johnny] Oh, little lamb." "You're a wolf is what you are." "Isn't she precious when she gets all worked up?" "Designers, I have a message from Heidi and the judges." "We are raising the stakes." "For this challenge, each team must create a second look." "Ladies and gentlemen, capital W-T-F." "Coming up on Project Runway..." "We have to understand each other." "We cannot make a mistake." "I have nothing else to say." "I'm good." "You know what?" "Game on." "I'm trying to keep Mitchell as focused as possible." "Ow!" "Auf Wiedersehen, bitches." "[Tim] I have a message from Heidi and the judges." "Each team must create a second look." "This second look will be an avant-garde design that corresponds to your California surf wear-inspired design." "Both looks will walk the runway." "Both hairstyles will be overseen by Garnier." "So digest this." "[Ra'mon] Avant-garde is something" "I think that's really fun and amazing, but I can't imagine how we're going to be able to fit in another piece and have it look the way it needs to look to be avant-garde for the runway." "[Tim] You have tonight to come up with a design." "Tomorrow, I'm taking you to Mood with a budget of $200." "But I want to suggest this." "I want only one team member to go with me to Mood." "All right?" "The other team member should be here working." "All right, thank you everyone." "We can finish this tonight and go crazy tomorrow." " Okay, yeah." " We've got this." "We both need to work our asses off." "When we're sewing it, we got to turn this over so in pulling it back out, it's going to be on the right side." "Epperson, you think I don't know that?" "You think I'm going to sew that?" "I'm the captain, and I just don't feel like the captain." "I wanted to be a good team player and have his input as well, but I just feel like he's really pretty much taken over, and that's very frustrating and annoying, and personally, I'm insulted." "I think it'll work." "I've always said expect the unexpected, and we really got a huge taste of that today." "We now have barely a day to do two things together." "Awesome." "I'm done." "[Tim] All right, designers." "You have 20 minutes to make it work." "Go, go, go." "I definitely have this vision in my head, and so I'm really happy that I get to go pick out the fabrics." "So for our avant-garde piece, it is inspired on the concept of the wetsuit but will have very fluid shapes added to it." "I can fold it for you." "Designers, you have five minutes remaining." "Ohh!" "Thank you, Mood." "[All] Thank you." "I have wonderful ideas in my head, but technically, I'm in trouble." "I'm in big, big trouble." "I think he wishes I knew how to sew a swimsuit." "Fabulous." "So I get back from shopping, and I come into the room, and I'm so pleased to see that Gordana is almost finished with the macramé." "So I'm very glad that I picked her." "And now, I have to start working on the avant-garde look, and I'm getting a little nervous because I'm looking at the fabric and I'm afraid that my garment's going to look like a blue tranny." "Wherever this is overlapping..." "Listen, I'm telling you, it's overlapping the same way." "No." "You want it to meet..." "You want it to go to where this is." "That's what I just said, Epperson." "No, you didn't just say that." "I'm not going to do this again, so I'm good." "The stuff that we're working on, it's going to get done." "I am the team captain." "I'm being looked at." "So game on." "We have to understand each other." "We can't make a mistake." "Why does the mistake have to be on my part?" "We have to understand each other." "I don't have nothing else to say." "I'm good." "One person needs to start doing the avant-garde piece, and then the other person needs to be switching." "Okay." "I'll finish the bathing suit." "Ra'mon is working on a wetsuit-ish kind of a deal." "Hopefully, he knows what he's doing." "Hi." "The prophet of doom has returned." "Carol Hannah." "Yes, sir." "Your model Erika has an issue, and I want you to know that if you're not happy with the outcome, you can have a new model." "Erika decided to take this commercial opportunity, and she's not going to be present for the fitting." "Well, this is lovely." "No, I know." "It presents an enormous conundrum." "There's no way I can do this without fitting this girl." "I'm the one on the line." "Shirin has immunity, which makes it even more so important." "I feel bad that Erika's going to be going home, but it is what it is, so I'm thinking I'm going to go with Valerie, one of the eliminated models." "Design teams, may I have your attention, please?" "Philip Carreon from Garnier is here for your hair consultation, and I'm sending in your models." "Okay?" "Thank you." "Oh, my God." " That's awesome." " Beautiful." "Okay, I think we should just take it in from the back." "We have chosen to put my new model Valerie into the avant-garde look." "Valerie's really muscular." "She's beautiful." "She has a great look." "She's super-tall." "So I think things are going to turn out okay." "Oop, sorry." "[Gordana] The avant-garde look is provocative for my taste." "I know that Nicolas is inspired by the sea, so maybe this is a sea woman who is becoming a human, like in the movie Mermaid." "That's what that outfit reminds me of, very powerful." "It's really important that I have..." "That they have the wetsuit, and I think that's what inspired this." "[Ra'mon] I think in this situation, the word frustration is a huge understatement." "I wasn't chosen to be a leader." "And I look at Mitchell, and I don't know if it's just he doesn't have the ability to stay focused or if he doesn't care or what it is, but it's bringing us down." "Ow!" "[Nicolas] See?" "Karma." "I'm going to be laughing so hard" " when she sends your ass home." " You are so mean." "I am going to be laughing so hard." "I'll help them pack you." "He's not trying to be a winner, and the situation is all [bleep] up." "There's going to be, on the chalkboard" ""Auf Wiedersehen, bitch."" "Auf Wiedersehen, bitches." " Hello." " Hi." "Hi, I'm Nicolas." "Hi, Nicolas." "Philip." "Nice to see you again." "Hi, Philip." "So nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you, finally." "I have something good that's kind of tribal." " I like it." " Tribal would be nice." "I did some preliminary things that I..." "This is it right here." "Oh, that's perfect." "These waves come down." "They actually come forward." "[Irina] I like that." "This girl, she's our avant-garde." "We have one big dramatic wave that comes down one side." "And I think, get her bangs dead straight so they can look a little more rock and roll." "The thing about her hair texture... because it does this naturally, we're going to be able to really use the Wonder Waves product on her and just enhance her hair." "It's going to be smashing." "Cool." "Awesome." " Hi, everybody." " Hey, Tim." "I'm here to check in, and I'm going to start right here." "'Cause it's avant-garde, we want to go as out of control as possible." "So it's gonna be an oversized macramé design that extends across the bustline." "Wow." "I will tell you, I love the idea." " High five." " High five." "I love that you said that." " All right." " Okay, back to work." "Back to work." "To work." "Thank you, guys." "So this is our surfer-inspired outfit that's very fashion-forward." "And it peels off." "Can I just tell you?" "When you held that up and this was all of a piece," "I was knocked out." "Then this suddenly is open, and I'm thinking we're gonna see panties, and suddenly all that sophistication went away for me." " Right out the door." " All right, keep working hard." " Okay." " All right." "Thank you." "We wanted to pull in that whole waves-water illusion of just very, very organic." "You have a lot of work to do." " We got this." " All right." " Thanks, Tim." " Thank you." "You made the hat?" " Yeah." " That's ambitious." "Keep working." "I'm with you completely." " Thank you, Tim." " Thank you." "It's an adorable look." "You're a good team, the two of you." " Okay." "Work, work, work." " Okay." " Talk to me." " We decided to do a bathing suit out of macramé." " You sure have." " Each strip we did by hand, each and everything hand-dyed to match perfectly" " to the color that we loved." " Bravo." "Thank you both." " Thank you, Tim." " Go, go, go." " Mitchell, Ra'mon." " Hi, Tim." "What is that?" " So this is part... [laughs]" " What is that?" "Your reaction is a little scary already." "It's a jumpsuit." "I was inspired by..." "It's a jumpsuit or a scuba suit?" "Well, I was inspired by the idea of a wetsuit." "I feel like I'm in a cartoon with a superhero and a Greek goddess." "I fundamentally don't get it." "Pull this together somehow, all right?" "All right." "Thank you, gentlemen." " Thank you, Tim." " I'll see you later." "It is, yet again, the 11th hour, trying to come up with something that will work." "We're in trouble." "Designers, I just want to underscore the fact that there's not a lot time left tonight." "Work like there's no tomorrow because for at least one person," " there won't be." "All right?" " Thanks, Tim." "[Ra'mon] So I decide that we need to scrap the jumpsuit altogether." " This would be awesome if you had this." " Yep." " No, I'm on that now." " Okay." "I need to take this in my own hands and really come up with a really solid look." "Ra'mon has a new idea." "I don't know what he's doing." "No idea." "I don't think he knows what he's doing, either." " I'm here for a reason." " You don't have to raise your voice." "You're putting on a show." " No, I express myself." " I'm not putting on a show." " I express myself..." " I'm not putting on a show." "[Johnny] Epperson and Qristyl are really having a problem right now." "They're just not meshing at all." "It's like oil and water." "I don't know what kind of women you're used to, but I'm not gonna let you speak to me any kind of way." "Let's not talk about what type of woman I'm used to talking to." "I'm done." "I'm trying to finish, so that's it." " I said I was done, and I mean I'm done." " Good." "We keep bumping heads, and if this is not gonna work, there's a possibility both of us are going home." "[Gordana] All right, let's go." "Coming up on Project Runway..." "We have 35 minutes." "I'm working on both pieces simultaneously." "I'm trying to keep Mitchell as focused as possible." "It's unfair." "It's a new day." "Help." "I don't want to get yelled at anymore." "Are you ready to be in the bottom two again today?" " [Laughing]" " Thank you." "I hate you so much." "I think third strike, you're out, I think." "Hopefully I'll still be here." "[AIthea] You'll be here." "I'll tell Heidi that." "There's no way you can send her home." "She makes me laugh." "[Qristyl] I'm nervous." "I just have a feeling that two people are probably gonna go home, not just one person, so that's what makes me nervous." "Logan and I are in a good place." "We're so happy with our looks, there's no way we're not gonna win." "You mean put a running stitch through it and then gather it, or do you want me to stitch over all this?" "Running stitch and then gather it." "Then we'll have to open it all up again." "I'm working on both pieces simultaneously." "I'm trying to keep Mitchell as focused as possible, and it's unfair." " With nothing underneath it to..." " Just focus on that." "That's what I'm doing." "Because I'm not trying to go home because of this." "Good morning, designers." "[All] Morning, Tim." "I'm about to send in your models." "You will have two hours with them." "Two hours to fit them, to send them to the Garnier Hair Studio, and the L'Oréal Paris make-up room." "And, as you're pulling your looks together, please use the Macy's accessory wall very thoughtfully." "Okay?" "Ra'mon," " do you have time to finish this look?" " Yeah." "All right, you may need to resurrect the scuba suit." "We shall see." "All right, I'm sending in your models." " Thank you." " That's not something you want to hear." "I'm looking at the neoprene, and suddenly I'm like, "Oh, my gosh." "Is it like a ball of lettuce?"" "So I think the best thing to give this a little more pop is to dye the fabric." "Bare bones, straight from the streets," "I'm dyeing this by hand." " Ra'mon, we have about 35 minutes." " Okay." "I want to ensure that both models are fully dressed in looks so that you're not just instantly disqualified." " This is so unfair." " I want you to save yourself," " So get something together." " Okay." "And make it work." " Light color." " Oh, it's beautiful." " It's kind of a clean, classic look." " Exactly." "Move it, move it." "Designers, in 15 minutes, we are all walking to the runway." "Everybody has to be ready." "Looking around this room, there's still a lot of work to be done." "Go, go, go." "[Ra'mon] I think it's working." "Am I giving up?" "No, I'm not." "At least if I go home," "I can say I tried the best that I could." "I don't know what the judges' take is gonna be, but I will be honest." "I will be up front and let them know my work got done over by Epperson." "Yeah, if I gotta save myself, I will." "Designers and models, we're going to the runway." "So follow me, everybody." "Going into the judging," "I did as much as I could to save myself." "This is the first challenge I've felt nervous." "I hope I'm not headed for the bottom two, but it seems like I've made quite a home there for myself in the bottom two." "Coming up on Project Runway..." " You didn't come up with a concept." " That's what I was going through." " I'm not finished." " What did you do, Mitchell?" "I worked on the swimsuit." "You did the swimsuit, and Ra'mon did everything else?" " Hello." " [All] Hi." "Welcome to the runway." "As you know, in fashion, one day you're in, and the next day you're out." "This was your first team challenge, and you were asked to create a California surf-inspired look." "But we thought this was going to be a little too easy." "[Laughing]" "So we also asked you to make an avant-garde look as a companion to your original design." "So I'm really looking forward to what you have created." "All right." "Let's meet the judges." "We have Max Azria, designer, founder, and CEO of BCBGMAXAZRIA Group, and owner of Herve Leger." "Fashion Director for marie claire Magazine" "Nina Garcia." "Actress and designer for Edie Rose," "Rachel Bilson." "Hi." "All right, let's start the show." "[Epperson] The beachwear look..." "I'm pleased with it." "It's flowing." "It's constructed well." "[Qristyl] We're showing two looks, and they're two looks that are just not strong enough." "The whole girl's butt is out." "There are a few flaws, but, you know, it was a quick put-together." "[Johnny] When our two looks come down the runway," "I'm completely at ease." "I'm calm." "I love them." "I definitely know that Irina and I are gonna be in contention for winning." "[Irina] I'm a little bit apprehensive about seeing the avant-garde look because I know it's not perfect." "Obviously, I want the judges to focus on the concept and not so much on, like, everything that's off." "[Mitchell] Our beachwear look looks fabulous coming down the runway." "I don't think the judges are going to know that that dress was made in 45 minutes." "[Ra'mon] The avant-garde piece, hands down," "I feel like it truly embodies me." "I think it's the stronger of the two pieces." "I think it's fantastic." "[Shirin] I think me and Carol Hannah definitely worked evenly." "She's a hard worker, so I really appreciate that." "I think it was a good partnership." "[Carol Hannah] I feel really confident in what Shirin and I have made." "I think our avant-garde look is one of the better ones, if not the best one in the room." "[AIthea] In almost a kind of hidden way, it's not just the final garment that's being put out there but how you're able to collaborate and put it together." "[Louise] The avant-garde look is just spectacular." "The pins and zippers and glitter and the cascade skirt just sort of is floating out behind her, so I'm very pleased." "[Nicolas] As I'm watching the garments, it's pretty interesting because they're both my designs." "But I truly can say that I would not have been able to actually put them together without Gordana's help." "[Gordana] The avant-garde look" "I'm having mixed feelings about." "But then, on the other hand," "I totally believe in Nicolas." "Maybe I'm not as adventurous as he is." "[Logan] My overall vision for the first look is almost exactly how I wanted it." "I'm just really excited to find out what the judges actually think and get some feedback on our designs." "It's fantastic that Logan and I are able to collaborate and really show our own style within the same garment." "And his rock and roll side and my play on volume..." "It really worked out." "If I call your name, please step forward." "Althea and Louise, please step forward." "Logan and Christopher, please step forward." "Shirin and Carol Hannah, please step forward." "If I have called your name... congratulations." "Your scores have qualified you to move on to the next challenge." " You can leave the runway." "Thank you." " Thank you." "The eight of you have the highest and lowest scores." "One of you will be named the winner, and one of you will be out." "Nicolas and Gordana," "Qristyl and Epperson, your teams have the lowest scores." "We're going to talk to the teams with the highest scores first, then I'm gonna bring you back, so you can leave the runway." "Okay, let's bring out your models." "I would like to start with Johnny and Irina first." "I sewed the skirt." "That's probably the only thing I can say I did by myself." "But she draped it with me." "She did all the beautiful macramé in the back." "The macramé idea was sort of the central... the core of this whole project that we did." "I really love the back." "I think that looks really beautiful." "It looks exciting." "I have to say that's my favorite look," "I think, out of all the looks, was this because I would definitely wear that." " Thank you." " Thank you." "Mitchell and Ra'mon, tell us about your design." "Basically, the inspiration started from a moment on the beach when the wave broke on the shore." "A pile of seaweed washed up, and it looked so beautiful to me, just the way the blues and the greens and the browns sort of intertwined." "Now, Ra'mon, am I reading this wrong, or is Mitchell the team leader?" "I'm the team leader." "He offered to speak." "I want to hear you, too, Mitchell." "Okay." "So from these two garments, what did you do, Mitchell?" "Ra'mon did most of it." "I worked on the swimsuit, I, um..." "We can't see the swimsuit." "You did the swimsuit, and Ra'mon did everything else?" "Not everything else." "He did a lot of it." "Why are you making that funny face, Ra'mon?" "Just because it was not that smooth." "At the end of the hour," "I found myself working on both pieces at once, which was a little bit frustrating." "I asked you who did what, and you said..." "He did pretty much all of it." "Who chose that fabric?" "I chose this." "It's a neoprene." "I thought that it was very..." "Thank you, God, for neoprene." "This dress made me very happy because it was color, and I like the fact that you used it for that avant-garde challenge." "Rachel, you're a California girl." "Which outfit would you wear?" "Well, that, absolutely." " The green one?" " The dress." "With a few alterations." " I'm only 5'2"." " Yeah." "I know." " Good ideas." "Very good ideas." " Thank you very much." "Okay, we've heard what you've had to say." "You can leave the runway." " Thank you." " Thank you." "Okay, so let's bring out the designers with the lowest scores." "All right, I would like to start with Qristyl and Epperson, and we want to know who did what in your team." "All right." "I was chosen as the captain, but I would have to say that Epperson pretty much took the lead on everything." "I can tell by the rolling of Epperson's eyeballs you guys had a lot of fun together." "You didn't come up with the concept." "We have to come up with something." "I came up with the concept." " We had another..." " My concept wasn't good enough." "I wasn't even given a chance to present anything." " It was everything was..." " What kind of excuse is that?" " Fine." " I had to make this work." "Till the last minute I'm sewing it." "I sewed the top." "I didn't sew any..." "I didn't sew anything?" "No, you did." "I had to redo it." "Because whatever I did was never good enough." "Anyway..." "I'm not finished." "I'm not finished." "Exactly." "That's what I was going through." " I'm not finished." " I couldn't speak." "I couldn't speak." "Every time I would grab a piece of fabric, it wasn't good enough." ""No, that's cheesy." "That looks cheap."" "Or "That's not the right color" or something like that." "I actually like the print." "I think it's a very pretty fabric." "There are sort of apparent problems in the work, and obviously it's projected from you guys' not getting along." "I have to say to make a top that fits that good on a body..." " I mean, it's..." " Let me see the back." "[Heidi] It's very good work." "[Nina] But then you look at the other piece..." "What is this?" "It just..." "It really..." "It was a bad marriage." "All right, let's continue with Nicolas and Gordana." "Nicolas, you were the team leader." "We did this macramé top together." "Uh, we hand-sti... we hand-cut all the fabric and dyed it." "I mean, that's a beautiful tie-dye job." "I think it's actually really pretty." "The bottom bit, to me, is very messy." "The top I love." "Now, here..." "I don't know." " [Nicolas] Uh, yeah." " It's not classy." "I think I took it a little too far." "Although I have to say his idea with organza was fantastic." "Unfortunately, you went for too sexy." "The overall effect of this girl, though, with her hair and her make-up looks great." "I think it's a very fashion-forward, cool number." "You're going to have to include the garters." "I think that..." "Okay, we've heard what you had to say." "We're going to have a little chat, and then I'm going to call you back." " You can leave the runway." " Thank you." "Let's talk about Johnny and Irina." "They tied into each other with the macramé of the back and then, you know, the idea of the dress." "It did tie in." "What about Mitchell and Ra'mon?" "The avant-garde dress and how he dyed it and made it a print and everything." "I mean, that was really good." "I would wear the avant-garde look if it was tweaked a little bit." " Yeah, it needs a little..." " With the neoprene and the green... just seemed like the best to me." "On Project Runway, you actually have to design and create and sew, and he's letting Ra'mon do all the sewing." "I don't know how am I supposed to judge someone if they actually didn't do anything." "Let's talk about who we didn't like." "Let's discuss Nicolas and Gordana." "To toy with that very provocative nature that we saw here with the garter belt and with the cutout, he... you know, he has to tame that." "I think he has to be very careful about the fabrics that he picks." "[Rachel] That was beautiful." "What do we think about Epperson and Qristyl?" "Obviously, there were a lot of problems between the two, although the top part of the first dress, the printed dress, was pretty, and it fit well." "Yeah, he did decide every..." "He acted as the team leader." "[Nina] I mean, it was the recipe for disaster." "Okay, so we've made our decision?" "Yes." "Let's bring them back out." "The eight of you have the highest and the lowest scores." "One of you will be named the winner... and one of you will be out." "One of you will be named the winner... and one of you will be out." "Ra'mon... you're the winner of this challenge." "Are you serious?" "Even though Mitchell was the team leader, you did all of the work." "Your looks were fresh, beautiful, and came closest to meeting the challenge objectives." "You also have immunity for the next challenge and cannot be eliminated." "Congratulations." "You can leave the runway." "Thank you." "I'm the winner?" "Is there a recount that needs to happen?" "Because this is ridiculous." "Like, talk about prayers being answered." "Irina and Johnny, you both are in." "You can leave the runway." "Thank you." "Nicolas, Gordana, you're both in." "You can leave the runway." " Thank you." " Whew." "Thanks." "Qristyl, Epperson, as you admitted yourself, this was a bad marriage." "Epperson." "Yes?" "You're in." "You can leave the runway." "Thank you." "Qristyl, your leadership skills were nonexistent, and it showed in the poor outfits that you showed us." "Mitchell." "We are disappointed and confused." "Never in Project Runway history has a team member for a winning design been eliminated." "Three strikes, and you're out." "That means, Qristyl, you're in." "Thank you." "Thank you." "[No audible dialogue]" " Thank you." " Auf Wiedersehen." " Thank you." " Goodbye." "Coming into this challenge as a captain," "I wasn't as assertive as I should have been." "I didn't try hard enough, and that was a mistake." "The world of fashion's not going to be complete without each and every one of you guys, okay?" " So thank you." "Bye, Mitchell." " Oh, Mitchell." "Bye." "It was a wonderful opportunity, and I don't regret being myself." "In the end, um..." "I'm going home with a smile on my face." "Next week on Project Runway..." "Well, Tim is waiting for you in the workroom with 13 women." "Make all of these women very, very happy." "She wants a royal blue satin jumpsuit." "That's not me at all." "I don't want it to look like a Smurf prom dress." "Don't use that word again." "I know I'll still be sewing as Tim rips the needle out of my hand to drag me to the runway." "To me it looks very bridesmaid." "You've just aged her 15 years, which, for the model world, is like dog years." "God! about the fashion you've seen on tonight's show."
