- The (many) designers introduce themselves, shop at Mood, and create looks for a red fabulous carpet event in NYC.
- The sun rises on another episode of 'Project Runway' and Gordana is thrilled to have made it this far. Over on the boys side, Nicolas makes an annoucement: "America, here I come!" The designers head to the runway. "Hallo!" Heidi squeaks. "You're getting closer and closer to Bryant Park." She then explains that the kids will head to Rodeo Drive to meet a "world renowned" designer who will introduce their next challenge. But who!? Tim introduces ... Michael Kors. Oh. ANYWAY, familiar face Michael describes the challenge: find inspiration from a location around the world. Carol, who won the last challenge, picks first. She choose Palm Beach. Nicolas draws Greece. Althea opts for St. Tropez. Gordana goes for New York. Cocky Irina picks Aspen. Christopher takes Santa Fe. Logan, the last man to choose, is stuck with Hollywood. Let the sketching begin! One shopping trip to Mood later, the guys and gals get to work. Logan is going for "bohemian, comfortable with tight, skinny jeans." Irina is going for a three-piece look with pants, sweater and fur vest. Ambitious! Nicolas, in the meantime, claims to be taking a risk in creating a tomboy-fantasy hybrid set in the Greek isles. Carol worries that she doesn't have enough fabric for her sunny-weather print dress. Irina notices that everyone is "cracking jokes every five minutes." Naturally, Ms. Cocky is disapproving. Christopher worries that the last few challenges have resulted in bottom finishes. He better step up. Tim enters to do some mentoring. He urges Gordana to start on her dress as soon as possible (good advice). "It just makes me nervous to leave you like this," he says. Us too. Althea wants her dress to look expensive, which Tim agrees is a "must." Christopher runs his flowing blue top with a belted, brown dress by Tim, who warns him that it "can't all be about the belt." Irina tells the camera that Christopher's dress looks like something an "Amish person would wear." Tim then moves to Carol, who wants to do a long, flowy dress that reminds the judges of the beach. Tim worries that the dress is cliché. Carol doesn't disagree. Tim seems to like Nicolas' Grecian creation and urges Irina to watch the faux fur. Nicolas tells the camera that Irina's creation is "borderline costume." Mee-oww! Tim leaves, the models enter and the designers do some quick fitting. Meanwhile, the clock continues to click. At this point, the designers begin to worry -- as they do every week at this time. "This is 'Little House on the Prairie,'" Christopher says of his outfit. So he cuts about 20 inches from the bottom of the dress. Problem solved! The next morning, Gordana makes bacon. Nicholas, in the meantime, is busy referring to himself in the third person. The designers then head back to the workroom, where everyone is "silently panicking," according to Carol. Tim sends in the models once again. Christopher is suddenly excited about his newer, shorter outfit. Gordana likes her dress, but worries the judges will not understand what she is trying to convey. Logan notices that Nicolas has gone off into his "own world" -- and it's nowhere near Greece, unfortunately. Interestingly, Nicolas agrees. "I definitely don't see Greece in it," he tells the camera. That could be a problem. Too late now, though. Time to hit the runway! Squeaky Heidi welcomes the recruits. "As you know in fashion, one day you're in and the next day you're out," she says -- shocking exactly no one Yes, Heidi then introduces the judges: Michael, Nina and actress/model/etc. Milla Jovovich. The show begins and -- you guessed it -- the designers LOVE their garments! To be fair, though, Nicolas and Carol wonder whether the judges will share in the love fest. Gordana also worries about the grey color choice of her New York dress. It's not flashy, after all. But wait -- we've already forgotten the fundamental rules! Luckily, Heidi is only too ready to help nurture our fragile little minds. "One of you will be named the winner and one of you will be out," Heidi recites as if someone pushed the "play" button on the back of her neck. Althea is immediately dismissed from the runway for having a qualifying score. Irina is first up. Milla thinks the look is "cool," while Michael calls it a "80s Aspen thing" -- and not in a bad way. Christopher's Santa Fe concoction gets low marks across the board. Heidi thinks the only interesting thing about the outfit is the super-hip belt. Carol's beach-ready dress is "beautiful," according to Nina. Michael is also complimentary. Nicolas' Greece-outfit, on the other hand, is ALL sorts of a hot mess. "I think you got 'Grease' the movie," Michael says. Nina wonders who in the world would spend money on the outfit. Gordana's grey dress with crystal trim is "quite beautiful," according to Heidi. Michael calls it "sexy, sophisticated" -- just like Park Avenue. Logan's Hollywood-inspired pants and coat -- inspired by Lohan or Mary Kate -- gets lukewarm reviews. One judges confab later, the designers come back out to face their fates. Carol is ... in. Irina is ... the winner! Not surprisingly, Irina isn't surprised. "It feels amazing knowing that I won three challenges," she tells the camera. Not that she's keeping score or anything. Gordana is ... in. Logan is ... in. That leaves Christopher and Nicolas. "One of you will be out," Heidi helpfully explains. "Nicolas, you sadly missed the mark ... Christopher, you are in the bottom two yet again. Where was the fantasy and inspiration?" Christopher is ... in! And that means Nicolas is OUT. He says his goodbyes to the judges, which makes Milla cry. Nicolas heads back to the workroom to clean up his stuff. "Because of my over-the-top style, it has been very hard for me to break into the fashion industry," he tells the camera. Adios, Nic.
- Welcome back to the "Runway," where anything can happen as long as it has to do with designing. We open in the boys' room, where Logan observes that only six remain. He tells the camera that it's time for everyone to "step outside their comfort zone." On the girls side, Irina laments that the fashion world is dominated by the men. Althea tells the camera that she thinks the strongest designers are herself, Carol and Irina (not so much Gordana). Cut the runway, where the contestants are forced to sit facing AWAY from Heidi. When they are finally allowed to turn around, they see a line up of the best outfits from each -- many of them challenge winners. "Allo!" Heidi squeaks. "Your challenge is to create a companion piece that compliments and enhances your best look." Irina takes the opportunity to point out that, based on their best designs, there are a "few people" who should be back at home by now. The sketching begins. Althea imagines her shorts pants and jacket combo as a long pants and giant jacket combo. Irina wants to make her Aspen look similar, but "completely different." "That's how you build a collection," she oh-so-helpfully points out. Christopher thinks his strength is gowns and hopes to put a different spin on his puffy, short dress from a few weeks ago. Gordana just seems confused. One shopping trip to Mood later, Logan sits down and begins working with the 40 zippers he purchased. Christopher, meanwhile, has 30 yards of fabric. "I'm going to go big," Christopher says. "I'm going to go huge." Althea stands at various points in the workroom, staring at her mocked-up outfit. Logan points out that they look like "Malvin pants," which Althea does sit well with Althea. "So sensitive," Logan whispers. We then take a break to delve into Gordana's past in Bosnia. Her parents were uneducated and poor. A black-and-white photo of little Gordana is cute. "To be where I am today is just something that is unbelievable," she tells the camera. Back to the present, the contestants deride Christopher behind his back for his 30-yards o' fun. Tim then enters to do some mentoring. He thinks Irina's tapestry-like creation with a cardigan is "completely unexpected" -- in a good way. Christopher's spin on his formerly youthful gown, on the other hand, looks like "mother" -- and NOT in a good way. And Logan's multi-zipper look? "This is definitely in the 'wow' category," Tim says. Ah, but there's a problem. Althea tells the camera that Logan's heavy zipper collar is clearly stolen from her look in the Christina Aguilera challenge. She huddles with Irina (natch) and expresses her concern. "I hate Logan," Althea whispers while stuffing her face with food. "I'm really bitter right now." Irina sympathizes (natch). The models enter and Althea STILL can't let it go. "He thinks because he's cute that he can do whatever he wants," Althea tells her model. "I'm really annoyed." So are we. The next morning, Christopher notes that he has about 100 petals to put on his creation -- the same one that Irina said looked like a dress "throwing up" another dress. Althea, meanwhile, is running out of time to hand sew her pants. Irina doesn't care, though. She won't lend out even the smallest of needles because that would be aiding the enemy. "When I want something, I usually get it," Irina tells the camera. "It's all worth it for me in the end if you reach your goal." Logan wishes Irina would be "humbled" by the judges -- just once! Tim enters, does some blatant product placement and then sends in the models. Althea notices that Carol is creating a dress -- again. "I'm really surprised the judges haven't labeled here a one-trick pony," Althea tells the camera. Logan also gets in on the denigrating. "My grandma has better taste that that," he says of Gordana. Irina then points out that Althea, while complaining bitterly about Logan, has actually stolen her look ... from Irina. Yes, folks, the competition is getting intense. Or at least catty. Runway time! "Allo!" Heidi squeaks. "As you know in fashion, one day you're in and the next day, you're out." She then introduces the judges: Nick Verreos (a season-two contestant), Nina Garcia and Kerry Washington. The show begins. Carol's dress is a poofier version of her previous sleek design. Althea thinks her look is "fashion forward." Logan hopes his zipper explosion "surprises" the judges. Gordana is very confident in her long jacket. Christopher thinks he "pushed it" (in a good way) with his big, huge dress of 100 petals. The show ends and the judging starts. Nina thinks Christophers dress looks like a "carnival float." Kerry thinks it looks like two different gowns. Irina is next. "Very uptown chic," Nick comments. Nina is the lone dissenting voice, saying the tight dress underneath the flowing sweater looks "cheap." Gordana's jacket-coat creation, on the hand, gets savaged by ALL the judges. "It looks like an office worker in Warsaw," Nick says. Carol's dress goes over wonderfully (Ava Gardner gets name dropped). Logan's zipper thingy is too "Judy Jetson" for Nick. Nina completely dismisses it. Althea's pants get high marks, but Heidi notices that that the sweater looks similar to one created by Irina. Althea backtracks -- and Irina goes in for the kill. "How do you not realize it when there are six people in a room?" Irina asks the judges. Still, the judges don't seem to mind. They love the outfit regardless of its "inspiration." One judges' confab later, the contestants line up for the final decision. "One of you will be named the winner and one of you will be out," Heidi explains. Carol is ... in. Althea is ... the winner! And guess what? Irina does NOT like it. "I'm not really exactly sure what Irina was accusing me of copying," Althea tells the camera. She is sure, however, that Irina has some character issues. Irina is ... in. Christopher is ... in. That leaves Logan and Gordana. Heidi calls the former's look "too tricked out" and the latter's "sad, drab and dated." Gordana is ... IN. And Logan is OUT. "I'm surprised that I'm going home for taking a risk," he tells the camera. "I'm definitely not a designer that's for middle America." The cute guy has left the building.
- Welcome back to "Project Runway." Five contestants remain: Althea, Carol, Christopher, Gordana and Irina. Althea tells the camera that Irina accused her of "copying." Naturally, they're not speaking. "I'm very competitive and I'm very outspoken," Irina says. Christopher, in the meantime, is the only one left in the boys' room -- a situation he finds "odd." But no more time for introspection now -- time to head to see Heidi! "Allo!" Heidi squeaks. "For your last challenge here, we're sending you to an iconic place that's rich in culture." So the designers head to the J. Paul Getty Museum. Tim greets the final five at the "heart of Los Angeles culture." "Use the Getty center as the source of inspiration for the design of your choice," he says. The designers can explore the gardens, the architecture or the museum's many exhibits. "Everything you look at is just unbelievable," cutie Carol tells the camera. The designers then start roaming the grounds and sketching. Carol is inspired by an ornate bed. Christopher adores a fountain with algae. Irina and Gordana fall in love with paintings. Althea is struck by the building itself. One shopping trip to Mood later, the five return to the work room. "This is the challenge that will determine who among you will be going to New York fashion week," Tim says. No pressure! Some of the contestants are already sniping at each other. "The atmosphere in the work room is kind of awkward for me," says Althea, who feels like the odd woman out. Irina compares Althea to "King Kong." King Kong is from Dayton? Tim then enters to do some mentoring. He checks out Christopher's angular outfit that is supposedly inspired by the rock fountain. "You don't want it to be a head-scratching response," says Tim, urging the designer to keep a close "editing eye" on the creation. Carol's design, meanwhile, is going for a "very ornate texture." Tim warns her to not "lose the sophistication." Next up is Irina, whose fur-lined dress looks a lot like "road kill," according to Tim. Ouch. Althea's architecture-inspired look, in the meantime, is perplexing to Tim. "I find it to be troublesome," he says. "This needs work." Finally, Gordana becomes emotional over her painting-inspired outfit. "I wanted to create something I'm in love with," she says. Tim is impressed. One quick model fitting later, the designers REALLY get to work (as evidenced by the quick editing and suddenly frantic music). "This one has to be amazing," Christopher tells the camera. Carol, meanwhile, is really "nervous." "You can not predict how the judges are going to react," she says. Althea is feeling "overwhelmed." The next morning, the models return for final fittings, hair styling and accessorizing. The contestants then bad mouth each other for a bit before it's time to head back to the runway. "Allo!" Heidi squeaks. "As you know in fashion, one day you're in and the next day you're out." She then introduces the judges: Cynthia Rowley, Nina Garcia and Cindy Crawford. "Three of you will make it to New York Fashion Week and two of you will be out," Heidi says. The runway show begins! Not surprisingly, the contestants are THRILLED with their creations. Gordana, in particular, is overjoyed to have created a look on a "spiritual level." Judgment time. First up on the chopping block is Althea, who explains she was inspired by the parallel lines of the Getty museum. Cynthia appreciates the inspiration, but thinks the dress is overworked while the top appears rushed. "It's a bit of a mess fest," Heidi observes. "I feel like you bit off so much more than you could chew." Irina's draped dress is called "old lady" by Nina. Cindy, in the meantime, hates the shoes. Next is Gordana, who nearly begins crying in describing her "angelic" creation. Nina likes the dress, but wonders whether Gordana will ever take a "chance." Carol's elegant gold dress with a shoulder tassel also gets accused of being "safe" by Nina, who has apparently found her go-to critique. Finally, Christopher's dress with a hint of green (the algae) is a bit heavy on the bottom, according to Cindy and Cynthia. "This piece speaks more about me than any other piece I've put down the runway," Christopher says through tears. He gets a sympathetic hug from his model. Each contestant is then asked which other two designers should head to Fashion Week with them. Gordana chooses Christopher and Irina. Althea chooses Carol and Irina. Carol opts for Christopher and Althea. Irina picks Althea and Gordana. Christopher names Irina and Carol. "I think all of you have given us a lot to think about today," Heidi says. One judges confab later, she brings the designers back out. Irina is ... in. Christopher is ... out. He weeps, (are you shocked?) Carol is ... in. Althea is ... in, which means Gordana is out. "I have put myself out there," she says. "If it is time for me to go, then so be it." She weeps.
- Welcome back to "Project Runway." Three contestants remain: Althea, Carol and Irina. All are super-psyched to be heading to Fashion Week. "Allo!" Heidi squeaks. "You have to create a 12-piece collection to show at Bryant Park." Tim enters. "Designers, I'm more proud of you than I can adequately express," he says. Actually, we think he expressed it quite well. Back at the dorm, the ladies pack up and get under each other skin. Althea is still sore that Irina accused her of cheating a few weeks back. "I think Carol Hannah and Althea are intimidated," Irina tells the camera. "They know I've done well." Ten weeks later, Tim heads to Huntington, New York to the home of Carol. She explains that her look is inspired by a late-night tour of Duke University of all places. "It had this kind of whimsical, almost fairly tale feel to it," Carol explains. Her line of outfits reflect that for the most part. Tim doesnt like a certain ice skater look, or a cape which looks matronly. Carol, who specializes in dresses and evening wear, has also designed pants. "I think you've done a lot of pushing," Tim says. Carol then introduces Tim to her family, who has flown in from South Carolina and is preparing a Southern meal. A few biscuits later, Tim takes his leave. "Work hard!" he says. Cut to Manhattan, where Irina is hard at work on her collection. "His opinion means a lot to me," she tells the camera. We meet Irina's annoying dog, Princess, and then see the looks inspired by Coney Island. "It's kind of like my thank you to New York for being so good to me," she explains. Tim doesn't like the fur elements, but respects everything else. "This is what I love about the fact that you're a risk taker: it could go either way," Tim says. "And I don't think you want to play it safe." He is VERY impressed with the hand knitting. Overall, its good, but not great reaction from Tim, who then joins Irina and her family for lunch at a fancy restaurant. Irina, meanwhile, tells the camera that she just wants daddy to believe in her dreams. "That would be the greatest feeling to get that approval from my father," she says. Finally, Tim heads to Dayton, Ohio -- "not the fashion capital of the world," according to hometown gal Althea. She explains that inspiration for her line came from women in various science-fiction movies. Tim loves some of the pieces, but others look far too "costumey." "You have a lot of thinking to do," Tim says. "Edit, edit, edit!" The pair then head to Althea's parents home, which Tim deems "adorable." A few drinks later, the visit ends with Tim reminding Althea to "work hard." Thanks, Tim. We then head back to Manhattan, where Irina gets a phone call from Tim. "We have an issue," he says. We do indeed. Turns out the images of Coney Island that Irina was going to use on t-shirts in her line are proprietary. In other words, she has to come up with new designs -- and the clock is ticking. "This is seriously the worst thing that can happen right now," Irina tells the camera. Poor, poor, Irina. We hope she can pull through. Time to head to Bryant Park. "I don't trust Irina any farther than I can throw her," Althea tells the camera. And with Althea's bad back, she shouldn't be throwing anyone. But where's Carol? "Poor thing is sick," Tim says. "She has a terrible stomach virus ... i'ts contagious." So Carol won't be coming that night. btut designing doesn't wait. The next morning, Irina and Althea head to the workspace to continue work on their lines. Suddenly, there is a knock on the door -- and Carol enters! She is still sick and stays far from the other contestants. "Don't get too close," she warns. Tim enters for another tour of the collections. It's time to edit, edit, edit. A sparkling top from Althea, for example, gets tossed out after being deemed "matronly." Carol is encouraged to maintain cohesion within her line. Certain pieces, while well constructed, simply do not fit in with everything else. Finally, Irina's creations get the once over from Tim, who observes that almost the entire line is black, black, black. Irina also appears to have the most work remaining of the three contestants. She's going to be cutting it close. The next step is choosing models, which is accomplished via a quick montage. Then, the finalists receive a surprise visit from Michael Kors and Nina Garcia, who offer advice on building the collections. "The most important thing that al you have in addition to talent and brains is guts," Michael says. Awwwww! The next morning, Carol is still sick and Irina is still plenty nervous when another surprise guest arrives: it's Heidi! "You have one more look to create," she says. A 13th look? None of the designers look at all pleased (or amused for that matter). To help them, Heidi then reintroduces Christopher, Gordana and cutie Logan. Althea chooses Logan. Irina picks Gordana. Carol gets Christopher. One sketching session and trip to Mood later, the newly formed teams get down to work. Alas, Carol begins to get sick all over again. Back at the hotel room, she curls up on the bathroom floor and moans. It doesn't look good for our cutie heroine. Stay tuned ...
