Jennifer, would you like to do the honors of announcing the winner? Jennifer: Sure. The designer whose dress I will wear to the MTV Movie Awards is... Effie. I love this dress. Congratulations. Heidi: Congratulations, Effie. It looks like you didn't need immunity at all. You are are the winner of this challenge and have immunity for the next challenge. You may leave the runway. Tiara. You're in. You may leave the runway. Cassandra. You're in as well. You may leave the runway. Alex. You're in. You may leave the runway. Two designers left. One of you will be in and the other will be out. April, you're design was both mine and Jennifer's least favorite. You had issues with the fit and fitting Jennifer's style. Joanna. You struggled with the fit as well and creating a flattering design that Jennifer would wear. April... You're in. You may leave the runway. Joanna. I'm sorry, you're out. Auf Wiedersehen.

Effie: Oh wow, really?! Thanks so much, I'm honored!
*in confessional* AHHHH!!!! This is so incredible! I don't care if I win another challenge again because this one was just too cool, Jennifer Lawrence is my idol and she is wearing MY dress to an event...words can't even describe how amazing I feel right now. I was afraid I might have gone a little too simple, but it looks like the asymmetrical cut and highlighted belt worked out perfectly to give it just enough flair for her. Hopefully all my risks like that pay off!
La Cha: *in confessional* I was a bit disappointed that Jennifer didn't choose my design, but at least I was safe. I was exactly in the middle so I had nothing to worry about, but I wish I could've gotten a little feedback as to what I could've improved on, though I suspect the cut up bottom of my dress hindered it. Oh well, as long as I stay away from the bottom I will be happy.

WEEK 3 *Heidi walks out onto the runway* Heidi: Hello designers! Congratulations on making it to another week of competition. I am here to deliver you're next challenge, but as you know, we need to pick models. Let's bring them out. *The models join Heidi on the runway* Models, as you know, this is a competition for you as well since the model paired with the winning designer will win a $25,000 spread in Elle Magazine. Effie, you won the last challenge, so you get to choose first. Effie: Alana, you were amazing last week and I couldn't ask for anyone better. I choose Alana. Heidi: Now we will just go in ranking order from last week's challenge. Tiara: Jac and I have gotten in the top two for the past two weeks so I'll stick with Jac. Cassandra: I'll choose Anabela. Justin: I want Karlie. Nicki: Damn you, Tiara. I wanted, Jac, but I'd be happy with Magdalena any day. La Cha: I'll stick with Liu. Lana: I'll take back, Josephine. Jhencie: Well, my top three were already chosen, so I'll go with Natasha. Alex: I'll take back Anna. Heidi: Okay, April. It's your decision who stays or who goes. Vika or Vlada. April: You're both great and beautiful, but I think that Vlada has a slightly stronger walk, so I'll go with Vlada. Heidi: Vika, I'm sorry. That means you're out. Auf Wiedersen. *Vika leaves the stage* Okay designers, now that you have picked your models, we can move on to the challenge. As you know, summer is quickly approaching and major stores are buying their summer lines from various designers. H&M is a huge store at the moment and would like to use one of your looks in their store. This is a huge opportunity. So your challenge is to create a summer, ready-to-wear outfit to fit the hip style of H&M. It can be a sun dress, shorts and a top, a bathing suit. Anything really. Good luck.

I don't think I'll be able to send in my stuff until really late (like maybe a little past midnight) on Friday night. Sorry for the delay!

JUDGING Heidi: If I call your name, please step forward. La Cha. Cassandra. April. Justin. If I have called your name, congratulations, your scores have qualified you for the next round of competition. You may leave the runway. *They exit* You six designers represent the highest and the lowest scores this week. One of you will be named the winner and one of you will be out. Let's bring out your models. Let's start with Effie. Effie: Once again, you've impressed me. I thought that maybe you were just a beautiful gown maker, but this weeks shows that you have versatility. The skirt is just perfect. The length is great and I love the detailing. I love the color of the shirt and I love how it makes the model look thin. Great job. Tiara: Both you and Effie are setting yourselves apart as front runners because this is beautiful. It's so light and airy and perfect for summer. It's just such a versatile dress. I could see girls wearing this to the beach over their bathing suits, to a wedding, or out to a high class dinner event. The styling is great as well. It's very light and airy. It's just fantastic. Nicki: I don't hate the dress, it's just that it's very boring to me. You tried to spice it up with a print, but I just don't like the print. I don't think it works for the client. It almost looks too sweet when H&M has some edge. I hate when designers have a print and don't line it up after they cut the fabric, but you did that well here so that's a plus. Lana: I feel like I could see this in H&M stores all day. I want those shorts. They are so cute and adorable. The top is great as well. The sheer trend is really in and the pop of yellow that you added with the bra is great. I think it works so well for the client and this is the first time I've been really impressed with you so great job. Jhencie: I have a lot of issues with this garment, Jhencie. First off, it's your job to flatter a clients body, but even on a stick thin model this dress looks unflattering. It gives her such a wide torso and makes her look really boxy. Also, I just feel like it looks heavy. Summer is all about light and airy, but this looks too heavy. I also think that it looks a little too formal for H&M. Alex: I think it really works for summer, but something about it just looks cheap to me. I'm not a huge fan of the print. For me it looks like a prom dress print that all the hot girls in high school think is pretty, but no one else does. The bikini bottom is very basic and has nothing of interest on it. I just think it's kind of lack luster.

ELIMINATION Heidi: The six of you represent the best and the worst designs this week. One of you will be named the winner and one of you will be out. Effie... You're in. You may leave the runway. And now for the winner of this challenge. Congratulations... Tiara. Congratulations. You are the winner of this challenge and your design will be sold across the nation in H&M stores. Lana, that means you're in as well. Congratulations. Alex... You're in. You may leave the runway. Nicki, Jhencie, one of you will be in and one of you will be out. Nicki, this is your second time in the bottom. Your design wasn't awful this week, it was just boring and uninspiring. Jhencie, your design didn't fit the client and looked much to formal. It also looked too heavy for summer and unflattering to the woman's body. Jhencie... I'm sorry, you're out. That means Nicki, you're in. You may leave the runway. *hugs Jhencie* Auf Weidersen.

WEEK 4 *Heidi walks out onto the runway* Heidi: Hello, designers! Welcome to week 4 in the competition. We have yet another challenge for you all, but before that, we need to choose models. Let's bring them out. *the models come out* Models, as you know, this is a competition for you as well. The model paired with the winning designer in the final challenge will win a $25,000 spread in Elle Magazine. Tiara, you won last week's challenge so you get to choose first. Tiara: Well we've worked so well together in the past so I will choose Jac once again. Heidi: Now we will pick in the order that you were called last week. Next is Lana. Lana: I'd like to stay with Josephine. Effie: I'm surprised no one stole her from me this week. Alana, I'll choose you again. Justin: I'm sorry Karlie, but I've really wanted to have the chance to work with Magdalena. I choose Magdalena. April: I'll stick with Vlada. Cassandra: I'm going to choose Anabela, once again. La Cha: Damn you, Cassandra! I was going to pick Anabela. I'll go with Liu though. Alex: I'm sorry, Anna, but I'm going to switch and choose Natasha. Heidi: Alright, Nicki, you are the last to choose. It is between Karlie and Anna. The girl that you choose will be in and the other will be out. Nicki: I think you are both beautiful girls, but I just have slightly more confidence in Karlie pulling off my designs so I have to go with Karlie. Heidi: I'm sorry, Anna. That means that you are out. Auf wiedersen. *Anna leaves in tears* Alright designers, now that you have your models, I can tell you your next challenge. Many designers focus on the ready-to-wear aspect of fashion, but if you haven't noticed, the major designers like Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, and Versace have all created couture lines as well. That is what you'll be doing this week. I want each of you to create a one-of-a-kind haute couture design. Good luck!

JUDGING Heidi: If I call your name, please step forward... Lana. Effie. April. Cassandra. La Cha. Nicki. If I have not called your name, congratulations. Your scores have qualified you for the next round of competition. You may leave the runway. *they leave the runway* Now you 6 designers represent the best and the worst designs of the week. Let's start with Lana. Lana: I just don't really see anything incredibly interesting about this gown. A couture look should be eye-catching and memorable and this lacks both of those qualities. The sheerness is probably the couture element to this dress, but I still don't think it makes the dress amazing. Effie: You just can't make anything that I don't like can you? This is another fantastic look. I love the colors. The cascading effect of the colors is just beautiful and the detailing on the inside of the train is just beautiful. It isn't the most ridiculously couture look, but it does have those qualities. Well done. April: This is easily your best look to date, April. You've improved so quickly in such a short period of time. From the Jennifer Lawrence week to now is just night and day. The embroidering on the bodice is just beautifully done and I love how light the fanning effect is. It is difficult to get it to fan out like that and keep it light at the same time. This looks like it would be a wedding dress for Lady Gaga or Nicki Minaj. It's beautiful. Cassandra: I'm just not a fan of this look at all. The dress or suit or whatever it is doesn't look very couture at all besides the bold pattern. Then you just took a car rim and put it on Anabela's head and called it couture. The bag is too matchy matchy and I just don't think it's couture. It looks like you forgot the challenge and put the car rim on to make it look unwearable and couture. La Cha: I think this is such a cool look. All the way from the collar to the shoes is just really cool. I love the bottom, horseshoe-shaped detail. The gold detailing and ruffles just look like it took so much tedious time and effort. It looks unique and couture, but not so much that it just looks silly. Well done. Nicki: I was really surprised by you this week. In week one, we told you to show us your personal style and point of view and you were the only one to go extremely couture. It put you in the bottom two, but I was hoping to see a better version of week one. Here I don't see any couture. It's just an evening gown. Maybe the hip flare is slightly couture, but that's it. It's beautiful, but not even close to what I wanted.

Auf weidersen.
