FASHION WEEK *Heidi walks out onto the runway* Heidi: Hello everyone! Welcome to the finale of Project Runway! We have three amazing designers who've put together three amazing shows. They've worked very hard for the past four months to create these shows and they've worked even harder prior to that just to get to that point. Let's start the show! *goes and joins her judges* *La Cha walks out and the crowd cheers* La Cha: Oh wow! Hello everybody. I've really put a lot of time and effort into this collection and I really hope you all love it as much as I do. My whole idea behind it was to pair things that are very simplistic with very dramatic pieces. Enjoy! *La Cha exits the stage and the music plays and the first look comes out* OneTwoThreeFourFiveSixSevenEightNineTenElevenTwelve*The models walk again clapping and smiling and La Cha walks holding hands with Anabela* *Lana then comes on stage and the crowd cheers* Lana: Hello everyone! Welcome to my show! I'm really honored to be here in your presence and I'm so happy that I get to show my collection to you all. For me, my collection was all about designing something that is wearable and versatile. I hope you love it as much as I do. *she exits the stage and the collection begins* OneTwoThreeFourFiveSixSevenEightNineTenElevenTwelve*The models do a final round clapping and smiling and Lana walks alongside Vlada* *Effie walks onto the runway* Effie: Hello all. Thank you so much for attending my show here in fashion week. It really means a lot for me to be here because it means that I get to express my love of fashion through this collection. I really wanted to work with dresses and create cool, out of the box designs, but still have them be wearable. I hope you enjoy! *Effie walks off and the collection is shown* OneTwoThreeFourFiveSixSevenEightNineTenElevenTwelve

Eight (For some reason, this link won't open. Can you send it again?) The link has been resent! Not sure how that happened, it was actually outfit number 4 that's missing...something must've gone wrong when I made a last minute change to the lineup.

FINAL JUDGING Heidi: Hello designers! This is it. Someone is about to be named the winner of Project Runway, but first let me remind you of the prizes. he winner of Project Runway will receive an exclusive designer's boutique in select Neiman Marcus Stores and on NeimanMarcus.com, $100,000 in technology and office space to help grow your own business from HP and Intel, $100,000 cash from L'Oreal Paris, a feature spread in Marie Claire as well as a guest editor spot at Marie Claire, and a sewing and embroidery studio provided by Brother International. Those prizes are amazing and one of you will be winning them. Let's start this judging, first up is La Cha. La Cha: First of all, congratulations on making it into the finale and showing a collection at New York Fashion Week. It's such a huge accomplishment. Out of all the designers, I feel like you definitely had the most variety. There were gowns, cocktail dresses, pants, shirts, skirts. It was a lot of variety that could fit a lot of clients. However, with all the variety, I feel like it lost a lot of cohesion. The looks felt like separate looks from different collections. Overall, it felt like four different collections. The first three looks, then the next four, then the next three, and the last one looked separate to me. That doesn't mean that it wasn't beautiful though. My favorite look was definitely the green gown with the embroidered, jeweled top that you put on Jac. The fit was impeccable. She looked gorgeous in it. I also loved the robin-egg-blue gown that you had on Liu. The way that it flowed was just beautiful. I did, however, HATE one of your looks and it was the short, Renaissance looking dress that you had on Bianca. I felt like everything in the collection was very fashion forward and this too me looked like a cheap Halloween costume. Overall, it was a beautiful collection and you should be proud. Lana: Congratulations to you as well for completing the challenge and showing at New York Fashion Week. I thought your collection was beautiful, but in a very simplistic way. You didn't have all this extravagance and you really didn't need it because the collection was beautiful on its own. Overall, it was definitely the most ready-to-wear of the three collections. I feel like all of the looks except for maybe the short, lingerie-looking piece that Maryna had on could be worn right off the runway. My absolute favorite look that you had was the short, white, long sleeve dress with the silver triangles at the bottom that you put on Vlada. It was so simple, sleek, sophisticated, and sexy. It could really work in so many different situations. I also really like the look right after it. The black and white short dress on Zuzanna. The detail on that dress is amazing and I feel like it took so much time and it really paid off. The look on Caroline as well was really nice. I didn't necessarily dislike any of your looks, but if I had to choose a least favorite, it would definitely be the final, pink look on Ashley. I just feel like the whole color scheme of the collection was very neutral with the black, white, and beige and this pop of pink at the end really threw it off for me. Overall, the collection is stunning and you should be proud as well. Effie: Congratulations to you as well, Effie. Can you believe that you just showed a collection at New York Fashion Week?! I thought your collection was amazing Effie. It was so you, it was so beautiful, and it was so elegant. It all worked really well together, but there was still variety that I liked. There were two looks for me that i couldn't decide which one I liked more. The first one was the black, long-sleeve gown that you had on Alana. It was so elegant, but it had an edge that I haven't really seen from you before. The plunging neck line with the high slit added sex appeal and it obviously helped that Alana is amazing on that runway. The other look I loved was the one right after it. The long-sleeved, gray, sequined gown that you put on Sui. It just fit her like a glove. The sleeves are so elegant and she looked like a superstar. I could see Angelina Jolie in that dress any day. I also really liked the looks on Lindsey, Anja, Frida, and Karlie. There was a look that I kind of cringed at though and that was the gold, long-sleeved gown that you had on Liya. I just felt like it wasn't a good fit for her. It looked a little too long. I probably would have switched her and Karlie or her and Marique because they are taller and could really carry that off. Overall, you did amazing like always and you should be super proud.

La Cha, you started off strong, but in the shadows of some other designers like Effie and Tiara, but as of late, you've really been killing it with two challenge wins in a row coming into the finale. You truly have shown that you are a great designer. Lana, you've been the dark horse in this competition. You've consistently done well, but always secretly. Even though you haven't won a challenge, that consistency is admirable and you as well have proved that you can design beautiful clothes. And Effie, you've been dominant throughout this whole competition winning 4 of the 8 challenges that we've had. You have shown your innovative ideas and executed them beautifully. You really are a fabulous designer. But only one of you can win... La Cha... You're out. I'm sorry. *hugs her* Auf weidersen. *La Cha leaves the runway after hugging Lana and Effie* Lana, Effie.

Congratulations to Chacha for winning and placing third and to Funfun for grabbing second. I know that finale was dragged out for a while, but I was super busy. I really enjoyed this game and I loved getting to see what different people made of the fashion industry. I will definitely be doing another cycle, but not right now. It's my last summer before college and I really want to enjoy it. Thanks again to everyone who participated!

Effie: *gasps* Oh my gosh, really?! *hugs Heidi* WOW!!! Wow, just wow! Thanks so much! This is such a dream come true, this is just...incredible! I'm just so awestruck right now. Thanks so much again, Heidi! And special thanks to you too, Alana, get over here! *hugs Alana* I could not have done this without you, thanks for sticking with me throughout all these weeks and making my designs look so amazing.
*final confessional* I'm just...I don't have words! It's unbelievable, I'm a real designer now. I'll have my own studio, my own team, my own label, my own everything! I've wanted this for so long but I've never had the money or connections to start, but here I am. I can't wait to really get started and move on to my next collections and next runway shows and next ads! And you can bet that Alana will be my face for quite some time as well, I really owe a lot to her I think because she was an impeccable model and made all my designs look fabulous.
Me: Great game, bdon! I thoroughly enjoyed this from start to finish and I really liked how different it was from the other games we usually play. I can't wait for the next cycle!
