Previously on Project Runway: All Stars...
We want you to design two separates.
We also want you to create a fashion forward version of your
look. Did you get pink dye?
Yeah, we have pink again. I really need to take the
over-designing into consideration.
It's too many pieces. You can only do two.
Okay. I just don't want the judges
to have a reason to say, "can she do anything else?"
Mm-hmm.
This is the kind of dress that I would wear on the red
carpet, and then I'd give it to my daughter 20 years from now.
That's so sweet. Darling, I mean, it's beyond,
right? This lace and the cutouts--I
mean, forget it, it's gorgeous. The winner is...
Sonjia. Really?
[Laughs] The dress, either it needed
less or it needed more. It feels a little young.
Something about that dress is so wrong, is just unforgivable,
darling. The designer eliminated
tonight is... Jay.
This is Project Runway: All Stars.
[Whispering] Marchesa. Today, we're on our way to
Marchesa, and I realize this is one of the last few challenges.
It's getting really real. Every time a challenge happens
and somebody goes home, you come one step closer to the grand
prize. Marchesa!
Oh, hi. Wow.
Okay, this is what fancy looks like.
[Gasps] Oh. Oh, my God.
We walk into Marchesa, and it is the epitome of feminine.
Lace, sparkles, beauty. It's just like Georgina.
It's her world. [Whispering] Marchesa.
Hello. Hi.
[Laughter] Welcome.
Hi, all-stars. All: Hi.
Welcome to Marchesa. We're working with a client
who's here for a final fitting for her wedding dress, and she's
right outside with my co-founder and business partner,
keren Craig. All: Ooh.
Hi. Hi, guys.
Keren Craig is absolutely stunning, and we're just, like,
staring a bunch of beautiful, sparkling women.
I wish I would have dressed a little better.
Dana, congratulations. Thank you so much.
Tell us about Peter. Peter is amazing.
We've been dating for about 3 1/2 years, and we've been
engaged for the last 7 months. How are the wedding plans
coming? It's been a whirlwind since
we got engaged, but they're coming along.
Is there anything you haven't gotten yet?
I have not gotten my bridesmaids dresses.
All: Oh. Okay.
I think we can help you out here.
Designers, each of you will be assigned a bridesmaid, and
your challenge is to design a bridesmaid's dress that makes
your client look and feel fabulous.
The bridesmaid dress needs to be able to be worn to other
events after the ceremony. I'm thrilled to help this
bride-to-be. I would love to dress her
bridesmaids, but all I keep thinking is, "I usually dress
the bride." Dana also has brought her
mood board with her, so she's got beautiful swatches, colors,
so you guys can discuss all her plans with her.
You're gonna sketch here in the showroom before shopping at
mood with your budget of $150. And there's a big prize this
week, so tell us about it, Georgina and keren.
So we have a real Marchesa experience for you.
We have glassware and chinaware by Marchesa by lenox.
If you're looking for fancy, this collection of homeware,
it's absolutely exquisite. And keren and I are launching
a new range of Marchesa jewelry, the eternal collection, which is
engagement rings and bridal-inspired jewelry.
The winner will get their very own Marchesa diamond ring.
[Laughter] I'm getting married, and I
could definitely use a diamond ring, so I have, like, the prize
in my sights. We're also going to invite
the winner and their guest to our fashion show.
You're gonna sit front row, and you're gonna have v.I.P. Access,
and you're gonna come backstage afterwards and come and hang out
with us and we'll have fun. Oh.
Yay. I would love to win this
prize. I would love to be at Marchesa's
fashion show. And a little blingy-bling, that
ain't hurt nobody. So one last very important
thing, Dana, when is the wedding ceremony?
Tomorrow. Oh, no.
[Laughter] Your faces.
[Laughter] Yes, designers, you have
until tomorrow to create your contemporary bridesmaids'
dresses. I mean, no pressure, right?
And everyone here is invited to the wedding...
What? Because the ceremony itself
will be conducted live on the runway by me.
Oh. What?
Yes, I got ordained to conduct the first-ever
Project Runway wedding. Oh, my God.
Oh. Alyssa Milano officiating
this wedding on the runway. This is All Stars.
Anything can happen. The bridesmaids will be
joining you in the workroom for fittings later today, so get to
know Dana, get sketching here, and good luck.
See you tomorrow. Bye, guys.
All: Bye. Hi, Dana.
Hi. How are you?
Dmitry. So tell us about your wedding.
My dress is a ball gown. Kind of classic.
I really like the colors for my bridesmaids of maybe plums,
dark grays, light grays, taupes. I really like the color
combination of deep navies with the burgundy.
I'm really excited to work with her.
How did you meet your man? We actually met at work.
Ah. Yeah, a little scandalous.
We were strictly just friends at first, and then a lot of happy
hours later, it turned into... [Laughter]
Something romantic. I love love.
I'm so excited for you. Thank you.
Not only are we gonna see our bridesmaid walk the runway,
we're going to witness the wedding.
Amazing, amazing. I love bridal, so I'm
excited. I'm sketching this fit and
flare, to-the-knee-length dress. I want the bridesmaids to look
great, but I don't want them to outshine the bride.
Marchesa gowns are really thoughtful.
There's a lot of time and effort in appliques, embroideries,
bead work, and I want to do some mimicking of that.
My vision for this bridesmaid's dress is a
silhouette that's really tight and fitted to the body, and a
skirt that flounces and a-lines just a little bit.
So it's something that's timeless, but I can actually
push forward and make modern. I haven't sketched one single
thing today. I really don't know what this
dress is gonna look like, which isn't surprising 'cause I never
know what my things are gonna look like till I start working
on them, but this time, I really don't know, but it's gonna come
to me, someway, somehow. All right, guys, let's go to
mood. All right, guys, we got
30 minutes. Let's go.
So I want to find a lace first.
I'm gonna swatch this one and these three here.
Organza is my absolutely favorite fabric to work with.
I've been in the bottom two weeks in a row.
I'm just gonna be overly ambitious with this and hope
that it flies. What's this?
Boom, let's get some of that. Which one has more
transparency? Okay, can we hold that one?
I like that one a lot. I find this purple roll of silk,
and I find a really pretty Jersey.
I don't know what I'm doing to tie it all together yet.
I don't have time to be making rash decisions right now.
I'ma get both. Five minutes, guys!
I find this beautiful chantilly lace and a wool crepe.
I went for expensive, and here's to hoping it works.
Time's up, guys! All: Thank you, mood.
Done. Ooh.
Right? I'll go to that wedding.
Exactly. Let's see how it drapes.
I'm going to drape this beautiful dress from silk
Jersey. I'm gonna play with illusion
again, and I'm gonna create this neck piece.
I think you just use that as an excuse to touch my boobs.
Always. Yes.
I'm gonna connect it with the bodice of the dress with the
pleated silk, so it's very time-consuming.
That looks like a huge pain in the ass.
I know, but it should look cool.
Oh, that's what you put on my neck.
Yeah. Yeah.
That's pretty. I think dmitry's look is
absolutely hideous. Ruching of the mesh looks cheap,
he's got, like, 15 different fabrics he's using.
I just--I really don't know where it's going.
That's pretty. Thank you.
I was the maid of honor at my sister's wedding.
I was the maid of--or one of the whatevers at my sister's,
but I made her dress. That's, like, the biggest
responsibility ever. Yeah.
Dana's wearing a Marchesa
bridal gown. Last thing I want is for these
bridesmaids to look cheap. It's such a sentimental thing.
It has to be just right. Ooh, that gets sheer.
Yep. Still don't know what
happening yet. People are doing, like, really
elaborate dresses. I don't have anything actually
physically sewn together. Okay, think, sonjia, think.
You gotta pull this out of your ass, think about it, figure it
out. It's really tough competition
at this point. You can't afford to, like, not
bring your a-game, because you can easily go home.
I think this might look cool if I can do it right.
I'm really excited. I'm actually drawing out the
applique and putting on myself, and that's something that no one
else in the room is doing, and I think that'll give it a little
edge. You okay, sonjia?
Super quiet. What's up?
What's going on? [Sobs]
We're having dinner, and sonjia, she just completely
melts down. [Sobs]
Don't cry. I have no idea what happened.
She looked so sad. [Sobs]
Sonjia, you need to just take a minute and breathe.
You're all right. It's hard, because you don't
want to see someone go through this, but how do you prop
someone up when they're broken on the inside?
[Sobs] It's really hard to challenge
yourself every single week, to come up with a great design all
the time. And sometimes it gets to you.
I'm just, like, to the point where I feel like I'm exhausted,
and I don't know how to, like, make it work, 'cause it just
seems like whatever I'm doing just isn't working.
It's so stressful to feel like you're doing a dress that
might not be strong enough. I know how hard that is, and
she's one of those girls that really gets into her head.
Don't psych yourself out. Don't feel like you have no
option, don't feel like you have nowhere to go, 'cause there's
always something. Even if you need to go outside
for, like, a second. She just needs to step away
from it and take a break, but as long as you keep focused on what
you do the best, it's gonna be okay.
Why did I pick this bitch organza?
I want this very structured base out of organza, which is a very
bitchy fabric to work with, just because it's so soft and it's so
flimsy, and it's a mess. I hate organza, to work with
it. He's actually trying to
construct with this fabric, and you never construct with this
fabric. You use it for the flowy and
party things. He just set himself for the
disaster. Hi, ladies.
Hi. Hi, how are you?
I'm dmitry. How are you?
You are drop-dead gorgeous. Oh, my God, you're gonna look
amazing. Hot dog.
Yeah. Just wanted to make sure that
we have your measurements, 'cause you're basically my
mannequin. Your waist is like the dress
form. I'm really happy with my
bridesmaid. She has basically, like, a
model-type figure. Here's to hoping your hip is--
i won't have to make any changes.
Boosh! Holla.
That's not too shabby.
Okay, I'm just gonna fit your neck.
Mm-hmm. I think, for my look, it's
extremely important to get right the proportions, because my
"bridemaid" is very short, so I have to be mindful to fit it
beautifully. We'll make it sexy.
I'm kind of working in the midst of a dress that is not
even close to being done. Kind of good that I have
something to put on my girl, so at least I can see, maybe,
hopefully, what it will look like.
This color looks really pretty on you.
All right, I'll see you in the morning.
Good luck with it. You're gonna rock it.
Bring the same bra. I have to applique for the
rest of my life. After the bridesmaid's
fitting, I feel at ease because I've seen her body type.
I know what will fit her and what will look flattering, but
now my biggest concern is the hours and hours of applique
ahead of me. If I don't do the applique
right, could ruin my look. Oh, zanny-poo.
Hi, designers. Hello.
A Project Runway first, a wedding on the runway.
So obviously, Marchesa, this is their challenge, and we all want
to impress Georgina Chapman, so I'm gonna bring in someone who
can help you with this. Oh.
The ceo of Marchesa, who happens to be Georgina's
brother, Edward Chapman. Hi!
Hey, Zanna, how are you? Oh, I'm good, how are you?
Great to see you. Thank you for coming.
Lovely to meet all of you. Excited to be here.
So Edward is gonna help me mentor today, and we're gonna
start with you, dmitry. Oh, okay.
Hi, dmitry. Hi, Zanna.
Meet Edward. Hi, dmitry, very nice to meet
you, pleasure. Nice to meet you.
How's your bridesmaid look coming along?
I'm playing with this beautiful silk Jersey...
Yeah. And playing with some toile.
I have some lace, I have some embroideries that I might add.
Okay. Or I might not.
Simplicity always helps, like, to make it versatile, so
you can wear it to any sort of formal occasion or more relaxed
occasion. I think the fussier you get,
the less versatile it's gonna be.
Yeah. This was actually accidental,
but I think I'm loving how this lace is draping.
Mm-hmm. It's a very modern silhouette.
I think adding the lace is gonna take it to a little bit older
world. Mm-hmm.
What's the plan with the embroidery?
I know with the lace, for sure I want to do some sort of
applique, it's just that I have to figure the placement and it
not going matronly. The "v" is quite severe.
I think what you just did with the lace and using the
scalloping... Right.
Over here actually really softens that.
You need to take it from business to bridesmaid.
Right. What I want to do is create
an over skirt that has this really deep pleat that kind of
gives a little bit of flounce and romance to it.
And then I found this really beautiful applique...
Gorgeous. That I'm thinking of doing--
placing it really strategically over the shoulder right there.
I love the embroidery at the top on the arms.
That's very Marchesa. Yeah, yeah.
So that's bound to fit in with what the bride chose.
Definitely. Your designs are gorgeous,
and you have a very minimal taste level.
Mm-hmm. I sometimes worry that that
doesn't translate on the runway, and that's why we're not getting
win after win after win. Right.
I really appreciate the fact that she's opening my eyes and
forcing me to do something that's gonna, like, take the
judges' breath away. Very nice to meet you.
Pleasure. Thank you so much.
Bye. I'm gonna try to put some
modern touches into it, but I'm not gonna change the whole
aesthetic. I guess I'm still at a place
now trying to figure out, this is just the foundation...
Mm-hmm. Exactly how I want to drape
it above it. I mean, you have the master
draper's brother right here, so--
[laughter] Georgina is all about
draping, that's for sure. Uh-huh.
As well as draping, there's always an element of detail that
you need. I have this trim that--I'm
not nervous about it, but I want to make sure that I use it in a
way that doesn't feel like you just plastered it on there.
Mm-hmm, I think you have some draping to do, some figuring out
to do. Yeah.
This is a great base to start from.
Good luck, sonjia. Thank you.
I'm going with a beautiful plum tone using applique that
I'm hand-placing to give her kind of a little bit of a curvy
shape. In terms of Marchesa, it's
always been a very romantic, ethereal product, and I'd just
like to make sure that the bridesmaids dress go with the
bride's. A lot to think about.
Yes. All right, good luck.
Thanks. Thanks, Michelle.
[Sighs] Looking around the room, I think
mine is just the most romantic design here.
I feel so good about my dress, I'm really not worried about it.
Okay, designers, there's definitely some lovely
bridesmaid dresses in the making.
I just want you to remember that this is a Marchesa challenge,
and Dana the bride will be wearing a Marchesa gown.
For that reason, these all need elevating.
It's all about attention to detail, craftsmanship, and
execution. I definitely know Georgina's
gonna be looking for that. Let's get on it.
Good luck. All: Thank you.
Good luck, everyone. Thank you.
We only have two hours left.
Edward Chapman and Zanna, they were, like, very
encouraging, so I think I just gotta, like, go with the flow
with whatever's happening. That's what I'm doing at this
point, I'm just like, "pin it, move it around, put that there."
Ooh. What are you doing?
How did you do that? This is cool.
But I just thought, maybe if it had some kind of contrast
somewhere, it could give it a little bit more pop.
Mm-hmm. It's starting to come
together. Like, it's starting to be the
base of what could be a really good dress.
Does anybody else have any other trim?
Fabio has this embroidery that he's not using.
If I put it on my dress, then it's overkill, so I most
definitely won't use it. Good.
I think that looks-- that's way better.
That's a really short dress, dima.
This is a really cute room of bridesmaids' dresses, though.
It's like, who's next? You don't know.
Anybody can be next, I guess. Everybody is more developed and
everybody is more experienced. It's best of the best, so it's
harder to compete. 'Cause before, you kind of
knew... Yeah.
The weaklings, right? Yeah.
So now, it's like, okay. Now the pressure's on,
because there's only five designs to look at tomorrow.
The end is near. Hey, guys, let's go home.
Someone's going home tomorrow, and that scares the
crap out of me. [Claps]
Wrap it up. Someone's leaving, and, like,
I don't want that to be me.
I am about to vomit. We only have two hours, and we
all have a [Bleep] ton of work to do.
I'm, like, really anxious. I have so many things to figure
out, like, exactly what I want this dress to look like.
I still have appliques to do, I have to sew the garment
together, I have to figure out my hem length.
There's a lot to do. Hey.
I need to tweak things there and there, but it looks pretty
good. It suits for the occasion, and I
think it looks beautiful. Amazing.
Dmitry's look was the exact same dress that Dana wore when
we met her at Marchesa, and I thought it was really ballsy of
him to re-create that, 'cause I feel like, where is there any
originality? But I do want a big lash,
because she's got these great brows and big eyes.
I take my bridesmaid to the Mary Kay color design studio.
With your green eyes, we're gonna play with a little bit of
plum too. Cute, okay, perfect.
I want it to look traditional, but still really fresh and
young. Okay, let's go hit the chi
hair care salon. Yeah.
I want to give her a high bun.
Like a loose top knot? Thank you.
I was thinking to go Hollywood classic.
I want to do a center part. I want my model to have a
perfect hair braid. It's gonna look like an angel
with a halo. Hey, guys, we got 15 minutes
left. Thanks.
I put it on my bridesmaid, and it's awful.
It fits the dress form great, but it does not fit my model at
all. There's no time for alterations.
It sucks that something I love so much just isn't working on my
girl. I think Michelle has a lot of
fit issues, but I like that she's creating this balance.
It's very artistic, it's a bit crafty maybe, but she's making
something creative and something different, so I like it.
I like it. I like fabio's dress.
I think it's different, and that's what he does, he brings
something different to the table.
I like this one. So I go to the QVC accessory
wall, I find the exact shoe that I'm looking for.
I might like these better. Five minutes left, guys.
Does that neckline bother you?
No, not at all. I don't know how I managed to
sew all of that in one night. It's on my bridesmaid, and she
looks beautiful. Helen's three words are:
Wool crepe, cap sleeve, and lace.
Every challenge, that's what she does.
So she's just going back into her box of crayons and using the
same three crayons over again. Guys, time's up.
Let's head to the runway. I feel awesome about my look.
I feel like it really came together, and I'm excited about
it.
The winner of Project Runway: All Stars will be given
the chance to create their own capsule collection with QVC
and will appear on QVC's spring fashion week,
a fashion spread in Marie claireand
a position at the magazine as contributing editor
for one year. Chi hair care will
send the winner to stay in a luxury spa resort
as a special guest at their international
conference in Cancun, Mexico, plus product and staff
for an entire year of runway shows.
From Mary Kay, an entire year's worth of beauty
products for their fashion shows and professional makeup artist
services for their debut show. And from Brother Sewing
and embroidery, a complete sewing and crafting studio
to launch their line, and $150,000 in cash.
Ooh. Ohh.
I'm proudly wearing Marchesa. Yes.
We can tell. We noticed.
This week, we entered a fashion fantasy world at
Marchesa's gorgeous showroom. You got a sneak peek at
Marchesa's new jewelry line, the eternal collection, which
will be available exclusively at Macy's, and you met our
bride-to-be, Dana, who needed five bridesmaids' dresses.
Your challenge was to design one that is perfect for a wedding
but can also be worn to other events after the ceremony.
Let's meet our judges. First, co-founder and designer
of luxury brand Marchesa, Georgina Chapman.
Hi, designers. [Applause]
Next, one of the most iconic names in American fashion,
Mr. Isaac Mizrahi. [Whistles]
Hi, kids. Our guest judge is an
emmy nominated host and winner of a British academy award.
From so you think you can dance, it's the beautiful cat deeley.
Hi. Hello there.
Yay. And as I'm now officially
ordained, I will be conducting today's wedding ceremony live on
the runway. [Laughter]
Have a great show, everyone. Good luck.
[Techno music]
the fit of my dress is on point, so I don't have to be
worried about that. There's so much going on on the
front portion of this dress, and it's beautiful and it's
flawless, but the back is looking really boring.
Yeah.
used a matte and a shiny? Yup.
I'm really happy. She's happy, she looks gorgeous
in it. Obviously, if I had more time, I
would have resolved my issues a lot better, but I set out to
make a gorgeous dress, and I did, and I made her happy with
it, so kudos to me.
ooh, yes, girl. My bridesmaid looks adorable and
happy. She's got a swing in her step
and a smile on her face, and that's what you want to do for a
girl. I don't know if she realizes
that the fit is off. I spent so much time on this
romance, but I didn't have enough time for everything else,
and that was the risk I took.
I like the way my model looks in the dress.
It has a lot of movement, it has a beautiful drape, and I think
if you put five bridesmaids in these dresses, they're gonna
look happy and beautiful. Job is done.
oop, there I go.
I love the open slit on the dress.
I love that it's long and short at the same time.
It gives a little bit of sexiness.
I feel like bridesmaids are always so covered up and boring.
Like, show a little skin.
Designers, one of you is the winner this week, and one of you
is going home.
Helen, we're gonna start with you.
Introduce us to your model and tell us about your look, please.
This is angel. I decided to go with a fit and
flare, because I wanted it to be versatile, not just worn as the
bridesmaid's dress. It's really flattering.
You want your bridesmaids to feel as gorgeous as possible,
and also be able to help you. You know, you've got to be able
to pick up the veil, and you can't be worried about your own
dress. It is a very, very nice
dress. I just wanted a little more, but
i do think it's an appropriate dress and it's definitely a
versatile dress. I think your dress is really
flattering, but it is a little heavy, and what winds up
happening is, I think it skews a little older.
I commend you for being so tasteful this week, but what is
really unbelievable about this dress?
Tasteful is good, but I'm looking for a little bit more.
Thank you, Helen. We're gonna move on to fabio.
Tell us about your outfit. This is Catherine, and when I
met with Dana for the first time, something that struck me
about her personality is that she was very classic, but at the
same time, very modern. That's where the idea of, like,
the half cap sleeve and the draping on the skirt is just
something that will give it a little bit more of, like, a
flirty side, but still be very classic and very structured.
Well, what I like most about this dress is that it's a little
bit of a departure from you. I do think there are some flaws
in it, for instance, just the proportion on this little sleeve
should maybe be pushed forward a little bit, and the hemline is
kind of a mess. Have you worked with satin
faced organza before? I have.
Then you should know better, fabio.
[Laughter] But--and that's exactly when
it hit me. I was like, "it does not behave,
it's so bitchy." [Laughter]
It is. It's a bitchy fabric.
[Laughter] I actually love the
shoulders, but for me, 'cause I'm built a bit like an American
football player, I would like the sleeve to come down a little
bit more there, but I like that modern feel.
Hi, fabio. Hi, Isaac.
[Laughter] Here we go.
Well, darling, honestly, this is not the worst dress I've ever
seen in my life, but again, it's like, this is supposed to be
Project Runway: All Stars, and this is a good challenge, and I
don't really feel like it comes up to the sort of fabio that
we're hoping to see. Michelle, introduce us to
your model and tell us about your look.
This is beautiful Olivia. I gave her a really dramatic
neckline, because I know, being in weddings, most of the
photographs are here. I think that's very smart.
I hadn't even thought of that, but you're absolutely right.
I could almost do a little bit more with that.
Now you've said it, I was thinking, "ooh, actually, you
could really go to town with that."
Michelle, why isn't that dress, like, 5 inches shorter?
Just hike it up. Yeah, hello?
Yeah, there you go. No, hello, you're right.
Hello, I mean, like, I see her legs, I see the person, I
see the woman, she's having a fun time at a wedding.
I'm serious, that is my problem with your dress.
I'm getting a little phallic from this center applique piece.
From here--I don't know what it's doing up there, but it
looks a little penis-like from down here.
[Laughter] She's hormonal.
[Laughter] Yeah.
It's what got me into this-- this predicament in the first
place. [Laughter]
And the bottom, to me, looks-- you're gonna--I know you're
gonna roll your eyes and hate me for saying this, but it looks
a little circus costume to me. There's something, to me,
unresolved about the sleeve, but I think it's such a pretty
idea, what you've done, and I really appreciate that you've
pushed it a little bit. Thank you, Michelle.
Thank you, Olivia. Dmitry.
This is my beautiful model/bridesmaid, uh, mattay,
and I wanted to create something elegant but modern at the same
time, so I gave her kind of a more geometric neckline.
Honestly, I don't know where to start with this dress.
You do the prettiest dresses all the time, and, like, now you do
that dress. I don't know how the sort of
drapery on the bottom relates to the ruching, and then that sort
of Cleopatra-ish thing going on around the neck, it's so
unattractive. Honestly, I'm sorry, like, you
might be gathering that this was not my favorite runway, not your
best week, all-stars. I don't think there's
anything particularly wrong with this dress, but it's nothing new
about this dress. I feel like I've seen this dress
a million times. I also was thinking about
versatile and that it has to be worn multiple times, so--
that doesn't mean boring. Dmitry, I-I kind of like this
dress. I think in terms of it being a
bridesmaid dress, I think it's safe, particularly if you've got
lots of other women who also have to wear the same thing.
No, there's nothing wrong. I think the word you use, safe.
Yes, it is safe. I just find it a very safe
dress. But I think it's chic.
No, it's not a good dress. I'm sorry, it's not a good
dress. It's not a bad dress.
Someone has to tell you the truth, that is not a good dress,
period. I mean, she looks so
gorgeous. No, it's not a disaster,
though, it's definitely a-- no, it's not a disaster, my
goodness. It's not.
Okay. Should I kick you in the
shins? Oh, how great, it's not a
disaster. This is not called "project
runway: It's not a disaster," okay, it's called project
runway: All Stars. [Laughter]
Sorry. Thank you, dmitry.
Thank you. Thanks for being a good
sport. Let's go to sonjia.
This is Catherine, and I just wanted to do a bridesmaid dress
that I feel like a bridesmaid would be really comfortable in
and she'd have fun in, she could wear multiple times.
This is my dress. I'm conflicted by your dress.
Yeah? It probably is one of the
more exciting dresses up here on this runway, which makes me like
it. Well, you've got me thinking.
Okay. [Both laughing]
Again, I'm sort of baffled. I don't know who any of you are
this week. [Laughter]
I really don't. Like, I did not expect this from
you either, you know? That dress has, like, too much
drapery on it by half. There's very few women who could
handle that much drapery. See, I love that kind of
whole '70s, studio 54, Jersey, but it just doesn't quite work
for me. I'm glad I'm going last,
because this was my favorite dress.
I love this dress. I love the fact that you can
actually alter the drapery to fit every body.
I just--I thought a lot about the fact that, like, I love
dancing at weddings, and I love to wear something that I would
feel a little sexy and flirty in.
You don't have to convince me.
I gave it the highest score of the day.
Wow. Thank you, guys.
Thank you, designers, and thank you to our beautiful
bridesmaids. We have a few differences of
opinion here on the panel. [Laughter]
So we're gonna deliberate, and we will call you back.
All: Thank you.
What the hell just happened? I think they're gonna take a
dart... [Laughter]
And they're gonna make a dart board, and there will be all of
our faces on it, and they're just gonna throw.
And then whoever it lands goes home?
Yeah. That was an interesting
runway, huh? I think it's because as it
gets, like, sort of more and more down to the wire, we just
get a little tougher with our love.
This is All Stars. It's not enough to make it work.
You have to make it happen. Well, let's talk about the
dresses that we liked. It'll be a very short
conversation, won't it? Yes, okay, so--
[laughter] I liked Helen's dress.
Me too. I liked it, you know.
Yeah, me too. It's a beautiful dress.
I liked it too, yes. It was a beautiful dress.
You know? To me, it was very kind of
Italian. You should be kissing Italian
men and dancing till dawn and eating spaghetti and being
slightly squiffy on champagne. I just it wasn't so
conservative. Very conservative.
Both: Yeah. Very pretty, very
conservative, very safe. So sonjia was the other high
scoring dress, right? Yes.
I applaud her for going somewhere with that dress,
right, but I can't award her for that work.
There are so many mistakes in that dress.
When you start-- mistakes, though?
You think mistakes... Oh, yes, yes.
Or just, like, a difference of opinion?
Look what it's doing to the bust.
Yeah, that is, like, boob and then schmoob.
You know what I mean, it's not even a boob.
With that Jersey, it just shows every bump, lump, bit--
schmoob. Yeah, schmoob--that you just
don't want to see. So let's move on to our low
scores. [Sighs]
Should we start with dmitry? God, what a disappointment.
It was so dull. It was offensively dull.
Safe, boring, a big yawn. I have to say, I actually
scored that dress one of the highest, because she looks good
in that dress... I don't know.
And I would wear it. Cat, you would wear dmitry's
dress? Yeah.
You would. It wouldn't be my first
choice, but I would wear it. I would much rather go with
that over Michelle's dress, you know what I mean, like, in
terms of what I would wear. Yeah, well, that, I agree.
Michelle's dress-- I don't know.
At least she tried something here.
No, it looked like a circus dress.
It really did, look at it. The proportions are so bad on
this dress. I felt sorry for the lady,
Olivia, in the dress. And it was like she just had
this sack on her that wasn't doing her any favors whatsoever.
Let's talk about fabio's dress.
I mean, fabio's, it wasn't his best work, but like you
said, he came outside of his comfort zone.
He kind of tried to go somewhere, you know?
But Isaac, it's just--he is consistently--we forgive him
every week, and I'm sorry, but an all-star designer should know
better than to use satin faced organza and try and use it in
that design, and then to tell me he's worked with the fabric
before. Between Michelle and fabio,
it's pretty neck-and-neck as to the mistakes that they make
week in and week out. If it were down to this week,
i would say good night to Michelle, because that dress is
unforgivable, whilst fabio's dress this week is not so
unforgivable. There are people who would
really like this kind of extended shoulder, and exposing
of the arm in that way I think is chic.
I don't know. I think Michelle is onto
something more interesting there than fabio.
I think if Michelle and fabio's dresses could both be resolved,
i think Michelle's would be a more interesting dress at the
end of the day. This was a tough one.
Ugh, so tough. But we have our decision?
Mm-hmm. Okay, let's bring 'em back
out. [Dramatic music]
designers, one of you is the
winner this week, and one of you is going home.
[Dramatic music]
sonjia and Helen, one of you is this week's winning designer.
You'll receive a Marchesa experience, including China and
glassware, a beautiful diamond ring, and those sought-after
front row tickets at fashion week.
As this is the Marchesa challenge, Georgina, you want
to do the honors? Absolutely.
And the winning designer is... Helen.
[Applause] Congratulations.
[Laughter] Yes!
Yes, Georgina, yes! [Laughter]
Congratulations, girls. We'll see you next week.
Both: Thank you. Good luck, guys.
I won the challenge, so it's kind of awesome, 'cause it was
Marchesa, and that's beyond words.
Congratulations. Thanks.
I'm honored that I was even a runner-up, 'cause you know where
i was at yesterday. Yeah, but you pulled it
together, man. [Dramatic music]
dmitry, you had a low score,
but you are safe. Thank you, guys.
I promise I'll do better. [Laughter]
See you next week. Tough love, darling, tough
love. [Dramatic music]
and that leaves Michelle and
fabio. One of you is going home.
Michelle. We do appreciate that you set
out to do something difficult, but the fit proportions and
balance were all off. Fabio, we love that you pushed
yourself outside your comfort zone this week, but your choice
to work with such a difficult fabric was a bad choice.
The designer eliminated tonight is...
[Dramatic music]
fabio. That means Michelle, we will see
you next week. Thank you.
[Chuckles] Oh, that'll make me proud.
[Laughs] Thank you.
Just so appreciate your whole energy and how you took this
criticism week after week. Stop it.
Pleasure's all mine. I'll get on my knees and I'll
give you the biggest-- love you so much.
Thank you so much. [Kisses]
Can't wait to see what's next for you.
It was a pleasure. Nice to meet you.
Bye, fabio. Thank you so much.
Getting eliminated sucks, especially so close to the end,
but I'm still really proud of what I did.
Hey, you guys. [Sobs]
I love you so much. Hey, I love you.
I'm really proud of you. I'm gonna be sad without that
room. I really love to be inspired by
these people. [Kisses]
I've done everything that I could and I did my best, and
I'm not gonna lie, it's crazy. It drove me insane.
But I had fun. [Classical music]
[Whispering] Are you nervous?
Maybe a little. [Chuckles]
designers, judges, friends, and family.
Some say love is like fashion. It may have its ups and downs,
but it never goes out of style. Do you, Dana, take Peter to be
your husband, through joy and sorrow and whatever challenges
you may face as long as you both shall live?
I do. Do you, Peter, take Dana to
be your wife, through joy and sorrow and whatever challenges
you face as long as you both shall live?
I do. By the power vested in me, I
now pronounce you husband and wife.
You may kiss the bride and walk the runway.
[Laughs] [Cheers and applause]
[Richard Wagner's bridal march]
oh! [Laughter]
[Cheers and applause]
next, on Project Runway: All Stars...
This is the week that decides who makes it to the project
runway: All Stars finale. If you don't put sparkles,
you could be going home. You're gonna tell me that my
fabric's not sparkly? I guess grandma is going to a
wedding. Let's have a mini-challenge.
Both: [Gasp] Lassie?
[Dog barks] Oh, we might have--I'm gonna
just-- oh, wow.
We have one more challenge, and it will take place live on
the runway tonight. Oh, God, that's brutal.
