The designers met Tim on Rodeo Drive in Michael Kors's shop! They were given 7 different locations that have inspired Michael Kors in the past and their challenge was to create a look inspired by that look.
Carol Hannah chose first since she won the last challenge and she chose Palm Beach. Nicolas chose Greece, Althea chose St. Tropez, Gordana chose New York, Irina chose Aspen, Christopher chose Santa Fe, which left Logan with Hollywood.
Irina is thinking that her $150 budget is not enough to make a winter outfit. Well, then why did you choose Aspen!? Ugh, I hate her guts. And she is not the only one feeling the pressure. All of the other designers know how important this one is with Michael Kors being the main critic and judge on this one. And with only one day to complete the challenge, this is only adding to the pressure of it all!!
In a not good showing, Tim didn't have anything really positive to say about any of the outfits. And then Nicolas started freaking out about his top because it was too Grecian goddess. Um, hello! Your inspiration is Greece! As long as you're not too literal with it, having your top be a little Grecian looking is okay!
Milla Jovovich served as this week's guest judge!! And staples Michael Kors and Nina Garcia were both back so it felt like a regular Project Runway show.
After the runway, Althea was called out as being safe, leaving all of the other designers on the runway as the best and the worst designers this week. I'm not really sure how much the judges liked Irina's design. They had some good things to say about it, but at the same time called it 80's and a fantasy. Christopher hoped that this week would be his redeeming week, but that did not happen for him. He should have listened to Tim's advice that the rest of the garment needed to be as interesting as the belt because it definitely wasn't. The accents on Carol Hannah's dress really sold the judges and they loved the simplicity of it but also praised the choice of her print. Nicolas's version of Greece did not translate to the judges. New York worked well for Gordana and her dress and necklace worked really well. Poor Logan didn't push the envelope this week though his outfit was well made. Like Michael Kors said, it's clothing but not fashion.
Ugh, stupid Irina won this challenge. This is going to cause her already inflated ego to get even bigger. So, the three remaining men in the competition all risked elimination! Looks more and more like a woman is going to win this season. And with that, Nicolas was sent home.
Seriously, Christopher must be on his last life in this competition because he was saved yet again! Not that I wanted him to go him over Nicolas, but he is just way too lucky. So, off goes the crazy little costume designer that could (or couldn't). And his exit got Milla emotional and that just caused me to love her more than I already did!
