Oh my, it's Steven's turn. Here comes Laura, or her grandmother, wearing a black dress with half-sleeves that end in white cuffs. There are white panels over each shoulder, creating a square neckline. There's also some scalloping at the neckline that's interesting, and…that's it. Otherwise, it's horrendous. It doesn't fit her well and it's SO OLD. I'm having a hard time figuring out who this design would be right for, but it certainly isn't Laura. ["Laura Bennett, maybe, but only if it's fitted properly, which this ain't." -- Sars] Steven says that he's not confident about his outfit. Poor guy, of course he isn't. He says it all got slapped together with "glue and a prayer." One of the two was not strong enough.
Rami's client, Lisa, arrives on the runway. She's wearing a high-waisted brown skirt and a white satin top. The top is sleeveless with a plunging neckline. It's super flattering, especially the skirt, which emphasizes her pert bottom and skinny waist. Rami says that a different side of Lisa came out on the runway. He must mean the odd, bouncy side who poses HARD with her big smile at the end of the runway. Weird. Rami likes what he put together, and notices that Lisa feels very confident in it.
All of the designers are onstage when Heidi starts calling names. Steven (I guess we know which group she's calling), Christian, Chris, Kevin, Jillian, and Elisa. The others are free to leave. The models return and stand by the remaining designers.
Heidi asks Elyse, Kevin's model, how she feels in her outfit. She loves it. She'd walk out wearing it if she could. Gap Patrick, whose hair is big and amazing, says that Elyse seemed very confident. Nina seconds this. Michael feels that the leggings weren't very imaginative, but he loves the rest of the outfit.
Elisa is asked to explain her design and she says that, since Tracy is a mom, she wanted to create a "day trousseau" for her. Fancy. Heidi asks Tracy how she feels, and she says that she feels "wonderful." That's not good enough for Heidi. She says that it doesn't look like Tracy -- she should be wearing something more classic. "Tell me more about myself, Heidi Klum," housewife and dieting mom Tracy is thinking right now. Patrick says that a designer has to make sure not to force his or her ideas onto a client. Michael thinks that the choppiness of Elisa's outfit was not flattering to Tracy. Nina agrees with all the criticisms. The outfit is very "Elisa," not so much "Tracy."
