00:00This season on Project Runway.
00:02Woo!
00:03Go!
00:05Did you ever think you'd find yourselves in a boxing ring?
00:08The coldest place in Manhattan.
00:09You're sleeping on top of the Empire State Building.
00:12I have breakfast sandwiches for everyone.
00:15Your first unconventional materials challenge.
00:18They're on.
00:19Shake your little booty.
00:21Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
00:25You know I love you so much.
00:27We definitely understand how hard this must be.
00:29It's a very hard place to be in.
00:31For all of us.
00:37Hallelujah!
00:38That was like, oh, there goes my heart.
00:40Wow, he did amazing.
00:42And our guest judge for today, Demi Lovato.
00:44Dove Cameron.
00:45Olivia Munn.
00:46Kate Upton.
00:47Chyna Ann McLean.
00:48Kelsey Ballerini.
00:49Katie Holmes.
00:50Maddie Ziegler.
00:52Yolanda Hadid.
00:53And Asia Kate Williams.
00:54The way that it was done, I do not agree with.
00:56Michael, why are you running off the stage?
01:00This has never happened in the history of the show.
01:02I came to play fair and there's no fairness in this game.
01:06What happened?
01:07I have no idea.
01:09Well, somebody needs to explain.
01:13This is cheating.
01:14It all has to stop.
01:17This entire thing disgusts me.
01:20It was unprofessional, unseemly, atrocious.
01:25I'm ready.
01:26I brought the A game, taking my vitamin C.
01:28I'm not kidding around.
01:30I'm gonna make these dresses and I'm coming to murder you guys in a nice way.
01:36The beauty of fashion is there's no rules.
01:38I'm ready.
01:43I brought the A-game, taking my vitamin C.
01:46I'm not kidding around.
01:47I'm going to make these dresses, and I'm coming to murder you guys in a nice way.
01:52The beauty of fashion is there's no rules anymore.
01:55He's a dude wearing a dress.
01:56Like, this is crazy, but for me, it's just normal.
02:02I feel like a badass.
02:04I feel like I just entered an exclusive club.
02:07I feel freaking awesome.
02:12Winning Project Runway would mean the world to me.
02:16It would mean the world.
02:18What is wrong with me?
02:19It's the first day.
02:28Oh my God, nobody's here.
02:30This is fabulous.
02:31I'm Sean.
02:32I'm Claire.
02:33And we're identical twins.
02:35What do we have here?
02:36Espresso Martini with Grey Goose.
02:38Thank you so much.
02:39Pleasure.
02:40We always want to be competitive to help the other one get better.
02:43For all we know, this competition between us maybe makes us the unstoppable force of Project
02:47Runway.
02:48There you are.
02:49Hey!
02:50Hey!
02:50What's up?
02:51It's just such an emotional rollercoaster right now.
02:54My wife is getting ready to deliver our baby, and I told her, I was like, I don't know if, you know, with the baby coming, she was like, you've got to do it for me and the baby.
03:02Hey!
03:03Hi!
03:03Welcome to the party!
03:04Hey!
03:05Welcome to the party!
03:05You're twins!
03:06No, we're tripling.
03:07What's your name?
03:08Sean.
03:09And Claire.
03:10We tell people, Sean shaved, Claire hair.
03:12Love it.
03:13Yeah, where are you from?
03:14My aesthetic, it's very much like my personality.
03:17It's fun.
03:18It's bright.
03:19You will never see some bland, dull come out of this designer.
03:23It's the Puerto Rican in me, okay?
03:25Hey!
03:26Who do we have here?
03:27Samantha!
03:28I'm Sean.
03:29You guys look a lot alike.
03:31I got into fashion because I kind of liked it.
03:35Okay.
03:36I love it.
03:37Oh!
03:38Hey!
03:39I'm a fashion design professor for Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles.
03:43My trunk is packed full of wisdom, so I don't think that this is going to be that hard.
03:50Hey!
03:51Oh, hey there!
03:52Oh my goodness!
03:53You look great!
03:54Trends, they come and go.
03:55I just feel like I have a style that will last forever.
03:58So is that true?
03:59It's like insane.
04:00I know.
04:01This is kind of surreal, right?
04:02Kenya.
04:03Kenya.
04:04Lovely to meet you.
04:05I'm Sean.
04:06You have a beautiful lipstick.
04:07What is your design aesthetic?
04:08Free.
04:09More like androgynous and playing with like masculinity and femininity.
04:12Oh, holla!
04:13Hello!
04:14How are you?
04:15Hey there.
04:16What's your name?
04:17Brandon.
04:18Brandon?
04:19It's been like all menswear actually.
04:21All menswear.
04:22Very good.
04:23Hi!
04:24What's your name?
04:25Cha-Cha.
04:26My name is Vincent and everybody calls me Cha-Cha.
04:29I'm trying to tell people that you can be fun, flirty, and wacky, but you still can fit in the fashion world.
04:35I wonder if anyone can fit in the fashion world.
04:36Oh my God, where are we going?
04:37I wonder if we're going to stay in the fashion world.
04:38I wonder if it's going to be a movie or anything, but maybe it's going to be a movie that's going to be the best.
04:39Oh, sh**!
04:40It's real life!
04:41It's happening!
04:42Hi!
04:43Hi!
04:44Hi everybody!
04:45Hi everybody!
05:00Heidi walks out and she's, you know, looking gorgeous as ever, her smile kind of lights
05:11up the room.
05:12Greetings, designers.
05:13Welcome to season 16 of Project Runway.
05:17I really cannot believe that I'm here.
05:20It's insane.
05:21Designers, congratulations for making it here.
05:23We know it's been a daunting process for all of you.
05:26Yeah.
05:27And I'm glad you took advantage of the Grey Goose Espresso Martini Cocktails.
05:30It will be provided for you because you're going to need the extra boost of caffeine.
05:34Oh my gosh.
05:35And you want to know why?
05:36Why?
05:37Your first challenge begins now.
05:40That's right.
05:43It begins right now.
05:45Oh my gosh.
05:46You will be creating a red carpet look that showcases who you are as a designer.
05:53Wow.
05:54I'm excited.
05:55I'm a red carpet designer, so to get that as the first challenge, I just feel like I
06:00gotta blow this out of the box.
06:02Designers, you should always be expecting the unexpected here on Project Runway.
06:07I'll say.
06:08So let's start with the first surprise.
06:11Oh my gosh.
06:12Ladies, come on out!
06:14Model 1 comes out, typical skinny tall girl.
06:25And then Model 3 comes out with real curves, real body.
06:29Plus size, medium size, skinny.
06:33I'm already freaking out.
06:35But I love it because it really challenges us.
06:37This season, you will be working with models of all sizes.
06:41These stunning women range in size from 2 to 22.
06:44I have to tell you, I'm very, very excited about this.
06:48Because the truth of fashion is that one size does not fit all.
06:53I am in my wheelhouse.
06:55I can design for so many sizes.
06:58Your models have been randomly assigned.
07:01With every challenge, you will be assigned a new model.
07:06I'm so excited!
07:11All right, designers, you will have five minutes to measure your models, and then you're going
07:15to have 30 minutes to sketch.
07:17Then we're going shopping at Mood with a budget of $300.
07:20Okay.
07:21And listen up, everyone.
07:23You have one day for this challenge.
07:25Yeah.
07:26All right?
07:27I mean, 300 bucks, that's nothing to scoff at, for sure.
07:31But one day, yes!
07:33Designers, I see you back on the runway.
07:35And models, I cannot wait to see you start your stuff.
07:38Good luck!
07:39Mwah!
07:40Bye, everybody!
07:41Bye, Heidi!
07:42Bye, Heidi!
07:43All right.
07:44Measure away.
07:45You need a ton of wrists.
07:49Seeing this kind of selection of people is so cool.
07:53And then let me have you just go like this to the side for me.
07:56Yeah.
07:57I just want to make sure I had your waist.
07:58I need a 28.
07:5931.
08:0044 and a half.
08:01We are done, girl!
08:02Designers, say goodbye to your models for the moment.
08:05They'll be back later today for a fitting.
08:07Thank you!
08:08I'm so excited!
08:09All right, designers.
08:10Your 30 minutes of sketching begins right now.
08:13You can sketch your design ideas with the new Friction Erasable Pens by Pilot.
08:18They allow you to sketch, erase, and sketch again.
08:21Go at it.
08:22I need this for my nerves.
08:23So my office is going to be really, really nicely fitted, more of a sheath style.
08:31I'm Muslim and I do cover.
08:32I definitely want to represent and show that you can still have the modest aspect of things, but still be current and trendy and fashion forward.
08:41The vibe in this room is intense.
08:53I'm definitely out of my element being in the room with all these women's wear designers.
08:58It's kind of, you know, got me questioning.
09:00Did I do the right thing?
09:01Am I in the right place being here?
09:03You know, should I leave?
09:05Should I stay?
09:06All right, designers.
09:07Time is up.
09:08And we are off to mood.
09:10All right?
09:11Yay!
09:12It's really, you know, trying time.
09:14Off we go.
09:15Coming up on Project Runway.
09:20Yeah!
09:21Love it.
09:22It is badass.
09:23Locked out.
09:24The pressure is on.
09:25Now crazy about it.
09:26Wonderful.
09:27Oh.
09:28Job well done.
09:29Expecting a lot from you.
09:30Bit of a cop out, for sure.
09:37All right, everyone.
09:38You ready?
09:39Yay!
09:40So our first challenge is the red carpet challenge.
09:44Off they go.
09:45Yes.
09:46Gowns.
09:47Love it.
09:48I'm going to create a jumpsuit.
09:49Kind of a textured sweater.
09:52A red overcoat.
09:57Everybody's running.
09:58I don't know why I'm running.
10:01Please, baby Jesus.
10:02Oh, yes.
10:03The decision's made.
10:04Okay, so this is what it's going to be.
10:06This is the one.
10:08Done.
10:09Let's do six yards.
10:11I see Deontay with this print, and it's huge,
10:13and it could be a real nightmare.
10:17Awesome sauce.
10:22You haven't seen the workroom.
10:24No.
10:25Let's get acquainted with it.
10:26It's your new home.
10:27New home.
10:28New home.
10:29New home.
10:30New home.
10:32Yes.
10:33Yes.
10:34Yay.
10:36Here we go.
10:37Here we go.
10:39I'm so excited.
10:41Working with plus size curvy models really got me shook,
10:45but my girlfriend, my mom, my dad, they're all on my side,
10:49and so I just get back out there and get to work.
10:51About to get hot in this kitchen.
10:56Hi, Tim.
10:57Hi, Tim.
10:58Well, welcome to your workroom.
10:59Yay.
11:00Yay.
11:01The JCPenney accessory wall is your resource for styling your looks for the runway.
11:06All right.
11:07And next door is the Brother Sewing and Embroidery Studio.
11:10Yeah.
11:11Very good.
11:12Now, as you know, this is a one-day challenge, and today that means you have until 10.30 tonight.
11:17All right.
11:18All right, everyone, I will be back to see you later.
11:20I know you will work hard.
11:21Thank you, Tim.
11:22You too.
11:23Watch out.
11:24The pressure is on.
11:25Needed a little sparkle.
11:27No, no, no, no, no.
11:29I love menswear because I like to design what I like to wear.
11:35I want her to have a little bit of cleavage, but have it be like business cleavage.
11:39Business cleavage?
11:40Business cleavage.
11:41Are you still cutting Ayana?
11:43Yeah, I have to cut this loose.
11:45I feel like I'm having a hard time with just patterning, sewing, or make things fit.
11:50Wait, that sounds like the whole meaning of the competition.
11:54Cha Cha, what you making?
11:55Like short dress and then sleeves.
11:58My form is also too fat.
12:00Like so fat.
12:02So it's different.
12:03Well, we have to use another word than fat.
12:05Family size.
12:06Family size?
12:07I don't have any personal feelings towards the wording.
12:10As long as a plus size model is not seen as a problem size model.
12:15Hi, Tim.
12:16Hi.
12:17Hi, Tim.
12:18Kenya, I can't wait to talk about your design, but first I want to hear a little bit about your background.
12:23Well, I'm just a little short bald head girl from Atlanta.
12:27I saw your mood with this ice cream color.
12:30Yes, I like ice cream.
12:32Immediately when you guys say red carpet, I'm like, okay, my girl is going to the Oscars.
12:36Okay.
12:37So I wanted to give her strapless, some exaggerated pockets.
12:40Your lines are beautifully clean.
12:42It has dramatic impact without becoming silly.
12:44Okay.
12:45Mm-hmm.
12:46It's very alluring.
12:47I could have fainted.
12:48Thank you, Tim.
12:49Can't wait to see this.
12:50Tim likes what I'm doing right now.
12:52Amy, tell me about you.
12:53I'm a professor of fashion design at Otis College of Art and Design.
12:56Oh, how wonderful.
12:57I love Otis.
12:58Do you? Okay.
12:59Yes.
13:00Tell me about what you're designing.
13:01The skirt is actually a wrap and a cigarette pant underneath.
13:05I'm excited about this.
13:07So Erin, tell me about you.
13:09Since I have a men's wear background, I kind of had this idea of like what a tuxedo means.
13:13So the pant is actually going to be a top, then the bottom is going to be a shirt.
13:18I was very concerned about this when I walked over.
13:22I became a little more concerned when you started to explain it.
13:26And I'm now crazy about it.
13:29That's like really amazing coming from you.
13:31So I'm doing a really wide palazzo pant out of this silk jersey.
13:35And the kind of detachable cape.
13:37I also have these brights because I don't want it just to be all red.
13:40I kind of want to add a little margarita.
13:46Hi, Tim.
13:47Hi.
13:48So Chacha, tell me about your own aesthetic.
13:50I like cute stuff.
13:51Probably Ariana Grande or Miley Cyrus will wear.
13:54Okay.
13:55So I found this fabric and I love it because it's like sparkly.
13:58Do you think I should put this like over here?
14:04I tried my best to explain my look to Tim, but Tim just like this.
14:12I don't know what to do.
14:18Oh.
14:19Coming up on Project Runway.
14:22If you want a sense of tackiness, you've got it.
14:25Indeed.
14:26Indeed.
14:27It just seems so basic.
14:28Exactly.
14:29This doesn't look red carpet to me.
14:31I think you're going to murder this.
14:32Oh.
14:33Oh.
14:34Do you think I should put this like probably here?
14:41I think you should do whatever the design voice in you tells you to do.
14:45You either commit to it or you don't.
14:48You have some decisions to make.
14:50All right.
14:53I want to hear all about your design, of course, but I also want to hear about your background.
14:57Sure.
14:58So the way that we operate is that Sean, her style, it's more edgy, more cutting edge,
15:07mine more feminine.
15:09So you're not aesthetic twins?
15:11No.
15:12Sean and Claire get into this annunciation thing where they are quite pleased with what is going on.
15:19I'm pleased at where I'm at thus far.
15:23And they are quite happy to be showing you how their process is.
15:30I do more of the conceptualizing.
15:33So for me to be here, to take it from beginning to end, is daunting.
15:37I think there's something familial happening.
15:40Indeed.
15:41Indeed.
15:42Indeed.
15:43I would never have been able to predict this.
15:46Indeed.
15:47Indeed.
15:48What I did was almost like a reflecting thing.
15:51So there would be one pocket on this side and the following pocket on the other side.
15:54Conceptually, I'm crazy about what you're doing.
15:58I like a sort of sense of tackiness.
16:00If you want a sense of tackiness, you've got it.
16:03Yeah.
16:04So I feel like when people hear the word modest, they think that it's going to be boring or dated or look...
16:09And they're completely wrong.
16:11I need to make this neck line lower and then have some of these appliques come around
16:17and then have these elements to give it some pop.
16:20I feel as though most of your ambitions are in the embellishments.
16:25Mm-hmm.
16:26I just don't want the embellishments to be stripped away in people's heads and have them ask, well, what's left?
16:32Hmm.
16:33So my model was tall, curvy, and I picture her going to, like, cans somewhere kind of resorty.
16:41It's very figure flattering.
16:42So I've just kind of been playing with it.
16:44It's supposed to be one piece, but I draped this first, and I'm liking the way the flower kind of falls all the way down.
16:50And you draped it on the bias?
16:52Yes.
16:53I'm just really ready to fit it on her so I can see what other details and changes I want to make with it.
16:58I'm going to be honest with you.
16:59Okay.
17:00I have a serious problem with large-scale prints, except in this case.
17:07Yes.
17:09Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
17:11My style is kind of more minimal, but I do like luxury finishes.
17:15So I'm trying to make it look super luxe.
17:17Hopefully it feels kind of modern.
17:19It just seems so basic.
17:21Okay.
17:24Your execution has to be absolutely impeccable.
17:29Okay.
17:30This guy does menswear.
17:31He's doing women.
17:32Like, this doesn't look red carpet to me.
17:34Brandon, carry on.
17:35There's a lot riding on this.
17:37I'm out of my element.
17:38It's got me questioning myself and my abilities.
17:41I'm just worried about how I'm even going to get this done.
17:44All right, designers.
17:46Momentarily, your models will be coming in.
17:49You will have until 10.30 tonight.
17:51Tomorrow morning, you will have about two hours in the workroom.
17:54I hate to leave you, but I will see you in the morning.
17:56All right.
17:57Thank you so much, Tim.
17:58Good night.
17:59I'll see you later.
18:00Bye-bye.
18:06He didn't really say anything.
18:09Tim's advice is blurry.
18:10Didn't really give me any feedback for it.
18:13What should I do?
18:14Oh!
18:18Hey, what's up?
18:19Hey!
18:20How are you feeling?
18:23Oh, overwhelmed, I tell you.
18:26Hey, there we go.
18:27All right, come on.
18:28Yeah, I like this bit.
18:30It's going to look nice once I take it all in like this.
18:32I love Kenya's vibe.
18:34She has that feeling of making you feel very comfortable.
18:36I think you're going to murder this.
18:38Oh, yes.
18:39That's cute.
18:41I like it.
18:42You look so cute.
18:44My dress looks so good on Jordana.
18:46Oh, that's awesome.
18:47It's so different than putting on mannequin.
18:50Walk, baby, walk.
18:51You have to make sure that this is going to hit your bust in the right place.
18:55Yeah, I like that.
18:56It's cute.
18:57My dress has like a vintage feel, but it could be a little matronly.
19:02I don't want to look old, covered up, and like I'm a mom.
19:07Let's do it.
19:08Hold this right here for me, please.
19:09Oh, that fits you perfectly.
19:10Oh, my God.
19:11I knew it.
19:12Yeah, I want the neck to be super high.
19:15You are doing a great thing for the curves.
19:17I love it.
19:18When I first met Botania, I saw that she was excited that I was her model.
19:23It was really good.
19:24That's good to have in the plus size community.
19:27Somebody that's excited to make us look good.
19:30I'm a little worried about the top.
19:32If he does not get the top right, he may be in trouble.
19:35Is the crop top going to be fitted?
19:37No, I think I'm going to keep it loose.
19:39I want something next and she went to my body because it shows off what I have.
19:44Do you mind if I just come up?
19:45I'm obsessed with the look.
19:46Let me tell you right now.
19:47I want to go to sleep in that look.
19:49I want to wake up in that look.
19:51Everything about that look is perfect for me.
19:53Oh, yeah.
19:54I'd like that much more.
19:55Yay.
19:56Smoking.
19:57I love this color.
19:59This is my color.
20:00I think Deontay took that into consideration.
20:02Just the color scheme on my skin complexion.
20:05I told him you were going to Cannes Film Festival.
20:07I can't say I have ever seen a woman in Cannes wear that thing.
20:11Bye.
20:12See you tomorrow.
20:13Bye.
20:14We're going to rock it tomorrow.
20:16Yes.
20:17Oh, my God.
20:18I cannot believe my zipper is lopsided.
20:21Like, I have to take this whole thing out.
20:23You got it.
20:24You got it.
20:2530 minutes left.
20:27You sound like a damsel in distress.
20:29It's just so nerve-wracking not being finished when I want to be finished.
20:34Just got to keep working under this pressure.
20:40All right, guys.
20:41It's time to go check into our hotel.
20:43We'll be back tomorrow.
20:44Okay.
20:45Bye.
20:46Bye.
20:47Adios.
20:55Oh, look at this.
20:56Oh, wow.
20:57Amazing.
20:58Can you guys believe that you're in the room with the winner?
21:02Hey.
21:03Final four, guys.
21:04Oh, final four.
21:06Oh, man.
21:07Today was long.
21:08Who told me this was going to be this hard?
21:10Can we watch TV?
21:11Go to bed.
21:12Go to bed.
21:13Coming up on Project Runway.
21:15We're going down to the runway.
21:17Woo!
21:18Our first show.
21:19I cannot stop sweating.
21:20I don't want to be that girl that goes home on the first day.
21:30Morning.
21:32Morning.
21:33Morning, Amy.
21:34Good morning, Cha-Cha.
21:35Work hard, play hard.
21:37Today, I'm going with my gut.
21:39So, I'm adding as many pink ruffles as I can to Cha-Cha it up.
21:45I'm legit so nervous that I cannot stop sweating.
21:49I don't want to be that girl that goes home on the first day.
21:52Hi, Tim.
21:53Hi, Tim.
21:54Good morning, designers.
21:55Good morning.
21:56I am sending your models in momentarily.
21:58Okay.
21:59You will have two hours to send them to the Avon Beauty Lab and to our hair studio.
22:03All right?
22:04Okay.
22:05Use the JCPenney accessory wall very thoughtfully.
22:09Are we going to have a fabulous show?
22:10Yes!
22:12I'm sending in your models.
22:13Thank you, Tim.
22:16Hi, ladies.
22:17How are you, princess?
22:18You feel good?
22:19Yeah.
22:20I have a lot of fabric that I need to hem.
22:23I'm hoping that I can get done in time, but I don't know.
22:29I'm in love with it.
22:30Oh, my God.
22:32Aww.
22:33So beautiful.
22:34There you go.
22:35Like, work that side.
22:37That's it.
22:41That looks great.
22:42Yeah.
22:48Nice to meet you.
22:49This is Samantha.
22:50Hey.
22:51Who are you?
22:52Samantha's going to be rocking a red ensemble with these accents here.
22:55Just a little touch of the fuchsia.
22:58Love it.
23:00Hello.
23:01Hey.
23:02What I want to do is highlight the eyes.
23:03So what I can do is do this first.
23:05And after that, going with the eyeliner, blend it together.
23:09I love that.
23:10Yeah.
23:11Yes, baby.
23:12Yes.
23:13I'm so happy they came together the way it did.
23:15I feel like I'm a contender.
23:19Cha-Cha's look has a lot going on.
23:21It looks like she could be the host of the Circus Under the Stars.
23:24Nice.
23:26I'm so happy it's not for me.
23:28Last night, I was really concerned about the top that Brandon was making me.
23:33But he pulled it together.
23:40Designers and models, we're going down to the runway.
23:43Our first show.
23:45I'm ready.
23:46I can't get any more ready.
23:48Off we go.
23:49Oh, I like the camo.
23:57Hello.
23:58Hello.
23:59Welcome to the runway.
24:01Thank you, Heidi.
24:02There are so many of you here.
24:04I see everyone is still smiling.
24:07As you know, in fashion one day you're in, and the next day you're out.
24:10This season on Project Runway, he will be working with models of all sizes.
24:15Because one size does not fit all.
24:17For this challenge, we ask you to create a red carpet look, showcasing your point of view as a designer.
24:23Now for the big prize.
24:25The winner of Project Runway will receive the opportunity to collaborate with JCPenney on a limited edition capsule collection.
24:35As part of the Project Runway line sold at selected JCPenney stores and online.
24:40A selection of brother products, including at least two industrial machines with a retail value of $40,000.

24:52A 2018 Lexus NX with advanced innovation and safety systems coming this fall.
24:58From Pilot, the official pen of Project Runway.
25:01A lifetime supply of friction erasable pens.
25:04And an all expense paid luxury trip to Japan, including a five star stay near Japan's fashion center.
25:11$100,000 to launch their line.
25:14And the winning designer and model will receive a fashion spread in Marie Claire magazine.
25:19Alright, let's say hello to our judges.
25:21First we have creative director for Brooks Brothers women and fashion designer, Zach Posen.
25:26Hi designers.
25:27Hi Zach.
25:28Creative director for Marie Claire magazine, Nina Garcia.
25:31Welcome designers.
25:33Hi Nina.
25:34And actress, Olivia Munn.
25:36Starring in the upcoming Lego Ninjago movie.
25:39Welcome.
25:40Hi.
25:41Hi.
25:42Also, we love having Tim Gunn here for the runway show.
25:45And as you know, he is your mentor and will not be judging your looks.
25:48That said, he will have the Tim Gunn save.
25:51We also have an anonymous runway show, which means we the judges do not know which designer created which look.
25:58Alright, let's start the show.
26:07She looks amazing.
26:09The silhouette is beautiful.
26:10The strapless part of the dress is fitting.
26:12She has her hands in the pockets that look very lovely on the dress.
26:16And she is working it.
26:19I stay true to myself.
26:29The color is definitely me.
26:31This has got the fierce look on her face.
26:33I'm impressed with myself.
26:35I like it.
26:42She looks so good.
26:44My fabric is almost sparkling.
26:46It's clean.
26:47It's modern.
26:48It's edgy.
26:49But it's still modest, which is what I designed for.
26:58I'm in awe.
26:59The movement of the sleeve and the drape are in harmony.
27:06This is a winning look for me.
27:13Feeling a little excited and a little nervous.
27:15This is the first challenge in the first catwalk.
27:17All these things are running through my head.
27:19How I should have hand stitched the appliques down more so that they could be flat.
27:23Things should have made the extensions a little bit shorter.
27:26They look like they were just hanging.
27:27I'm thinking I should have done something differently.
27:35Colleen is rocking this dress on the catwalk.
27:38She looks absolutely stunning.
27:40You get to see all the different colors that I included in it.
27:44The dress is moving so nicely.
27:46It's beautiful.
27:47Laris is really strutting it.
27:48She looks confident.
27:49She looks poised.
27:50My heart is beating out of my chest.
27:51I've never made women's clothes.
27:52But I just think it was the right combination of pieces together.
27:53I'm just so happy with the look that I put out.
27:54Oh my gosh, she's so cute.
27:55I really love the dress and I have so much fun with it.
27:56And I see Zach posing and has a big smile.
27:57I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
27:58I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
27:59I'm just really strutting it.
28:00I'm just really strutting it.
28:01She looks confident.
28:02She looks poised.
28:03My heart is beating out of my chest.
28:04I've never made women's clothes.
28:05But I just think it was the right combination of pieces together.
28:06I'm just so happy with the look that I put out.
28:08Oh my gosh, she's so cute.
28:09I really love the dress and I have so much fun with it.
28:20And I see Zach posing and has a big smile.
28:23I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
28:25But I just hope that I could be safe.
28:34I'm so excited.
28:35I can hardly sit still.
28:36I'm absolutely thrilled with how she is able to whip off the jacket and turn it into a skirt.
28:42I walked a fine line between classic elegance and innovation.
28:45And I think I was really successful with this garment.
28:53Going into this first runway, I'm a little unsure.
28:56I'm watching my model walk down the runway.
28:58I'm feeling a little better.
29:00It actually comes out really good.
29:06The dress is flowing beautiful.
29:20It's giving out enough drama for the red carpet look.
29:23And she looks really beautiful.
29:25So I'm happy.
29:26She's serving it down the catwalk.
29:35The fabric is flowing the way I expected.
29:37The color story is great.
29:40I am so proud of myself.
29:42It's something that I've wanted for so long.
29:44And here it is happening right in front of me.
29:46It's the best feeling in the world.
29:56I've never had a look walk down a runway.
29:58So having Sunita strut down the runway and look really, really cool is the most exciting thing of the day.
30:04I know I pushed my design aesthetic and I incorporated a lot of glamour.
30:09But I'm wondering if I pushed it far enough.
30:18I really love my pants.
30:19I think they're really fun.
30:20I'm kind of like a flip flop on like what a tuxedo would be.
30:25I think it looks really chic.
30:26I like my first look.
30:37I am so proud.
30:38She walks with such confidence and the dress has beautiful movement.
30:42The skirt moves like water just like I want it to.
30:46Everything is hitting her amazingly and she looks like she loves it.
30:51She looks stunning.
30:57Her cape is flying down the runway.
30:59It looks effortless.
31:02She looks super confident.
31:05I'm so in love with my first look.
31:11That was a really fun first runway show.
31:14We have just learned which designer created which look.
31:18If I call your name, please step forward.
31:20If I have not called your name, congratulations!
31:22Your scores have qualified you to move on to the next round.
31:24You can leave the runway.
31:29The six of you have the highest and the lowest scores.
31:35One of you will be named for the first round.
31:37And one of you will be out.
31:38The six of you have the highest and the lowest scores.
31:40One of you will be named the winner.
31:41And one of you will be out.
31:42All right, let's bring out your models.
31:43All right, let's bring out your models.
31:45The six of you have the highest and the lowest scores.
31:46The six of you have the highest and the lowest scores.
31:48One of you will be named the winner.
31:50And one of you will be out.
31:52All right, let's bring out your models.
31:53Kenia, I'm going to start with you.
31:54Please tell us your point of view as a designer and your look for today.
31:55Well, my point of view as a designer is to make ladies look like women.
31:56And one of you will be out.
31:57The six of you have the highest and the lowest scores.
32:01One of you will be named the winner.
32:02And one of you will be out.
32:03All right, let's bring out your models.
32:05Kenia, I'm going to start with you.
32:06Please tell us your point of view as a designer and your look for today.
32:18Well, my point of view as a designer is to make ladies look like ladies.
32:22I think you are very ambitious to make a mermaid dress in one day.
32:27I don't know how you did it.
32:28Me either.
32:29Because that is a lot of seams.
32:31That is a lot of construction.
32:33Job well done.
32:35So thank you.
32:36I loved the pockets.
32:38I'm always awkward on my carpet.
32:39I never know what to do with my hands or my face.
32:42But having the pockets just made it feel a little bit more youthful and fresh.
32:46Good job, Kenia.
32:47Not a bad start.
32:48It feels great.
32:50Sean.
32:51I make luxury street wear.
32:53And Christina here is wearing this two-piece outfit that I thought would be wonderful for
33:00the Billboard Music Awards or the VMAs.
33:03The top I find quite beautiful.
33:05Maybe if there was like a long white skirt to go with it.
33:08Okay.
33:09If that had been long, we would have had two white dresses next to each other.
33:14And that would have been a more interesting dress and more unexpected.
33:17The shorts are a bit of a cop-out.
33:19It's like a C-celebrity that doesn't have a good stylist.
33:22I see.
33:24Cha Cha.
33:25Yeah.
33:26Okay.
33:27So I like fun, flirty, and cute stuff.
33:29So my girl, she's going to the VMAs.
33:32And I love sparkles.
33:33Kind of looks like a scrunchie.
33:34I don't know.
33:35There's like a lot of things that I'm channeling, but they're all not positive things.
33:39Yeah.
33:40I understand this My Little Pony zone you're in with the ice cream and the bear and the
33:44colors.
33:45But from a design point of view, I don't think there's much there.
33:48Do you feel comfortable in that dress?
33:50Uh, yeah.
33:51Okay.
33:52Well, yeah.
33:53You're in a tent.
33:54Yeah.
33:56Deontay, please tell us about your look for today.
33:58I envision my girl at Cannes Film Festival.
34:01I wanted her to be bold and colorful, and I feel like it's a special piece.
34:06The way you've placed the flower, I mean, that is beautiful.
34:11It looks like you did it with love, like you did it with passion.
34:14I got a Michelle Obama event when I saw you in that.
34:17Yes.
34:18Expecting a lot from you.
34:21Brandon.
34:22Well, I do my best to let my work speak for myself because I'm not always the best at
34:26speaking.
34:27I've never done women's wear either, so this is like the second women's look I've ever
34:30done.
34:31I can see with this look that you know what's happening right now.
34:34Mm.
34:35You know, this new trend of athleisure where you see these athletic stripes mixed with
34:40something that could be glamorous.
34:42Well done.
34:44Hi, Taneen.
34:45So my point of view as a designer is I like to design for the woman who is bold, sexy,
34:49and unique.
34:50At first it was a basic silhouette, and I wanted to camouflage her midsection to make her feel
34:55sexy and look good.
34:57You said it yourself.
34:58This piece of fabric was a camouflage for her figure.
35:03Instead of camouflaging, why can't we celebrate her figure?
35:07As a designer, you can't just think about the size two.
35:11So I kind of love this new runway that we have because it has many dimensions, many proportions.
35:19That's the real world.
35:20Okay, we've heard what you had to say.
35:23Now we're going to have a little chat, and then I'm going to call you back onto the runway.
35:37Hi there.
35:38Hi, Tim.
35:39Hi, Tim.
35:40Hi.
35:41Hello, ladies.
35:42Hello.
35:43Shall we start with Monique wearing Deontay?
35:46It almost looks like he hand painted it.
35:49Yeah.
35:50That's how strategically these flowers are placed.
35:52Yes.
35:53It's perfect.
35:54It's perfect.
35:55It really like cinches in the waist, gives you like a beautiful curve.
35:57And this whole thing.
35:58Hi.
35:59Oh, is it a shirt skirt?
36:00How fabulous is that?
36:02It just lays so effortlessly.
36:04Well, you look happy.
36:05I love it.
36:06You can tell that he loves women, and that's really nice.
36:08And Lyris is wearing browned up.
36:13I want to see more.
36:14Yeah, it's the attitude.
36:15The attitude.
36:16It's the attitude.
36:17He gave us something different for the red carpet, and it works.
36:19Absolutely.
36:20And the curve here of the patterning, there's subtlety that's really nice.
36:23He designed for her.
36:28And we have Janine wearing Kenya.
36:30It's a nice fabric.
36:31But it's too see-through, and it doesn't hold up.
36:33Well, she could have just done a lining.
36:34She had intended to put in a lining.
36:36It was a matter of time.
36:37Yeah.
36:38But if somebody came to my studio and said,
36:40I can make something like that overnight,
36:42they'd be working with the Oscars with me in a second.
36:44Superb.
36:45I mean, there's boning in it.
36:47Really?
36:48Yes.
36:49It's really beautiful.
36:51We have Christina wearing Sean.
36:55I like the top part of it.
36:56That's what we said.
36:57We thought that that had a nice quality.
36:59Yeah, I agree with you.
37:00I think together, it's a little bit hard.
37:02But that's very beautiful.
37:06And we have Viordanos wearing cha-cha.
37:09Our unicorn pixie princess.
37:11Yeah, I mean, cha-cha, I don't know.
37:13He's trying to be ironic or something?
37:14He's trying to.
37:15Counter-cultural.
37:16That's what it feels like.
37:17I think you're giving him too much credit.
37:19And we have Jasmine wearing button.
37:22You're just glowing and bubbly and happy.
37:26She said it herself.
37:28The camouflage.
37:30She's got a great figure.
37:33Thank you, judges.
37:34Bye, girls.
37:35Bye, ladies.
37:36Bye.
37:37You did awesome.
37:38Really nice to see all the different body types.
37:41That's refreshing.
37:42Yeah.
37:43All right, so we've made our decision.
37:46Yeah.
37:47Let's bring them back out.
37:55The six of you had the highest and the lowest scores.
37:58One of you will be named the winner.
38:00And one of you will be out.
38:04Deontay, your model looked effortless and bold at the same time.
38:10Congratulations.
38:11You are the winner of this challenge.
38:16How do you feel?
38:17It's surreal.
38:18And I got much more to show you moving forward.
38:22You can leave the runway.
38:23Thank you, judges.
38:24It's like the best feeling in the world to win the first challenge.
38:27My wife, we're having a baby and I'm here changing our lives.
38:35Yo.
38:36What's up?
38:37Good job.
38:38I knew it.
38:39It's for your baby boy.
38:40All right.
38:41My baby boy.
38:42I needed that.
38:43I swear.
38:44Man.
38:45Mm-mm-mm.
38:46Kenya, we were very impressed with what you pulled off today.
38:52Brandon, you really embraced your model's curves.
38:56And we're all looking forward to seeing more from you.
39:00Sean, your look did not impress us.
39:04That said, it's clear that you have potential.
39:09You're all in.
39:10You can leave the runway.
39:13Thank you, guys.
39:18I have potential!
39:19Yeah!
39:20Yeah!
39:21Yes!
39:22No, it's okay.
39:25She was worried about you.
39:26She was so worried about you.
39:27She was so worried about you.
39:29Botany, Cha-Cha, one of you will be out.
39:36Cha-Cha, the fabric was beautiful, but the construction really was a mess.
39:43Botany, it concerned us that you really wanted to camouflage your model's curves rather than embrace them.
39:52Botany?
39:53You're in.

40:32I feel a little sad, because I love Heidi so much,
40:37but she don't get me.
40:39Aww.
40:41You can't miss it.
40:43No, Cha-Cha.
40:44Cha-Cha, there's a girl who loves what you do as it is already.
40:48You just need to find that girl.
40:50Oh, I thought you were going to say you.
40:55He was hilarious.
40:57Deontay.
40:59Wow.
41:00But honestly, it was a sensational show.
41:03You should each feel proud.
41:04Yeah, absolutely.
41:05All right?
41:06Cha-Cha, I need to send you to the work room to clean up your space, okay?
41:09Aww.

41:21Project Runway is actually like a dream to me.
41:24I just feel really sad.
41:25I cannot stay longer.
41:27Ugh.
41:28I just regret the ruffles.
41:30Next time on Project Runway.
41:31It's the giant recycling center.
41:33Holy shit.
41:34This is your first unconventional materials challenge.
41:35I don't work with anything recycled.
41:36She seems kind of stressed out.
41:37You've planned beautifully.
41:38Good.
41:39This is not going to help you.
41:40This is going to be a hot mess.
41:41This is what this show is about.
41:42Utter elegance.
41:43I'm so impressed.
41:44Hallelujah.
41:45You really need to change your perspective.
41:46It's like a leprechaun went dumpster diving.
41:47Wow.
42:15Wow.
42:17Yeah.
42:18I love you.
42:20I love you.
