On the runway, Heidi greets them and tells them they're in or out. Because Nina Garcia has a new job, the winner will have a layout in Marie Claire. She introduces Michael Kors and Nina Garcia. Nina! I've missed you. The guest judge is Nicole Richie. The show begins. Jonathan's design is first. It's a cocktail dress. Hmm. It's pretty interesting. The skirt is black and flowing. The bodice is a white and black fabric that's pretty sophisticated. There is a large cutout on the back. Jonathan is very happy with it.
Next is Seth Aaron's dress. It's a black and white plaid dress. At the hem of the dress, there are pleats that create a sort of donut cloud. Otherwise, the dress is pretty fitted. There's a visible red zipper up the back of the bodice. There is some sort of suspender action with the straps. OK, it looks well-made, but I think this is seriously dated. Just like Seth Aaron. He's thrilled with it. He thinks it looks better on the runway than when he was making it.
Here is Jesus's gown. It's tacky. It's skintight crocodile skin. There's this gaudy halter business that's a no. In the back, there's a vent allowing for a long brown chiffon train. Speaking of trains, there's been a wreck. He, however, loves it. It fits well and I think that's the only thing he can think about.
Ben's dress is next. It's a short dress of a shimmering pink fabric (actually, I saw online that he combined two fabrics to create this look). There's a sort of futuristic silhouette. The shoulders are exaggerated and pointed and the hips are also pronounced. Ben feels that he is giving the judges a good glimpse of what he does.
Here's Jay's look. It's a strapless cocktail dress. It's a pattern of white and green on the top of the skirt is gray/brown with flowered fabric on the hips and in the center at the waist. I don't know about that center bunch, but the hips look pretty cool. Jay says that he believes in the garment.
Here's Pamela's dress. It's pink. It seems pretty simple. The skirt flows and the sleeves are long and blousy. It's very Maria Von Trapp. It's pretty, but doesn't seem that special. It's much more interesting from the back.
