(S03E11) Final challenge before Fashion Week, kids. The heat is on!
The designers met with a very orange Nina Garcia at ELLE to talk about their final challenge. She introduced them to ELLE's feature "First Look" and instructed the final four to create an outfit to convey their point of view as designers. They were also told to choose three words to describe and accompany their imaginary collections. Later, there was a not-so-surprising "twist" when Tim told the designers that the winning outfit would be featured in "First Look". O RLY? The designers were given a shortened deadline (six hours short!) and the task of photographing their models to go with their three words. Goodness.
Project Runway has been winding down, leaving only four
designers to go (Chloe Dao, Kara Janx, Santino Rice, and Daniel Vosovic), but the big finale of
Project Runway
is the actual runway show at Olympus Fashion Week, which took place between the 3rd and the 10th. What they did at
Fashion Week was have all four contenders present collections so that none of the spectators could give away who had
been booted (they did the same thing last season when poor Austin Scarlett was Auf Wiedersehen-ed)... The actual top
three finalists of
Runway will not be announced until next week's episode, and only those three collections
will be televised.
Do you like spoilers? C'mon. I bet you're dying to see what the designers have created...
If you'd prefer to find out on your own, look away. If you'd like to be sneaky, check out this
brief recap from Yahoo! (thanks,
Martha!). Or, you can come look at some pictures I dug up
from Fashion Week and take a real peek at the collections that they presented...
