>> Previously on Project Runway
All Stars...
Please welcome
Diane Von Furstenberg.
>> You only have six hours to
design a look inspired by gelato
flavors.
>> What the [bleep] am I gonna
make in six hours?
>> This is the fastest challenge
in Project Runway history.
>> I've got six hours to save
the world.
>> The whole entire room is
stressing.
>> You are the envy of every
designer in this room, because
you work so fast.
>> I've just got to deliver.
>> How can you have a fashion
moment if you're staying with
what you're comfortable with?
>> I really just need to get
something done.
>> [Bleep].
I hate this.
I don't know if I'm gonna be
able to pull it off.
>> The back is absolutely to
die for.
>> I think it's a great dress.
>> Michael, you got to call me
after the show.
[Laughter]
>> The winning designer is...
Michael.
>> Oh, my God.
>> I wanted to create
something that was light, like
the taste of the gelato.
>> The back is scary and the
belt is scary.

place.

means you're out.

Clothes off Your Back
Original Air Date on February 2, 2012

>> We walk quite the distance
to see miss Angela waiting for
us in the hot sun.
>> Hi, designers.
>> All: Hi.
>> Welcome to Central Park.
I thought it would be nice for
you to get out of the house, get
some fresh air and sunshine.
>> Thank you.
>> You've all been working so
hard.
>> Correct, ma'am.
>> Are you ready for your next
challenge?
>> All: Yes.
>> All right.
This week's challenge is going
to be about designers and their
muse, and your challenge is to
find a muse to inspire a
fashion-forward look.
It could be anyone--a tourist,
a trendsetter, anyone.
>> I'm looking around and I'm
going, okay, um, how are we
possibly going to make something
interesting out of this, like,
casual park attire?
>> But there is an All Stars
twist.
You have to convince your muse
to give you their clothes off
their back.
>> What?
>> Hold on a second.
A stranger is gonna give us
their clothes?
>> I think that this challenge
is so amazing because I've taken
so many daggers in this
competition for having a
personality, but it will be the
fact that you have a personality
that will allow you to succeed.
>> Now, you have a budget of
$150, and you can use this to
convince your muse to give you
their clothes off their back.
And then the rest of money you
can use to get fabric at Mood.
>> Okay.
This is definitely going to be a
challenge, because, you know,
I'm practically going to walk up
to people and beg them for their
clothes.
We're in New York, so we know
that New Yorkers don't take that
[bleep] very well.
>> Half of your look must come
from your muse's clothing.
>> Okay.
>> But you all have HP cameras
so that you can take a
photograph and remember your
muse's look.
You guys want some good news?
>> Yes.
>> Yes, please.
>> You have two days to do this
challenge.
[Cheering]
I knew you'd be happy about
that.
>> Awesome.
>> Good luck.
I'll see you back on the runway
with your fashion-forward looks.
Off you go.
>> All right, let's go.
>> Oh, I'm gonna slip.
>> You run like a girl.
>> I do!
Beg, borrow, steal, I will do
whatever I have to do to get
what I need to move forward.
Oh, my God, you look amazing.
>> Can I ask you guys a
question?
>> Excuse me, hi.
>> I think you're gorgeous.
I love your style.
>> My name's Austin Scarlett.
I'm a fashion designer.
>> How are you?
>> Good, how are you?
>> Good.
Nice to meet you.
I'm Rami.
>> I love your look.
We're at the mercy of what we
can find, and then, also, it's,
like, can we actually get them
to give us the clothes?
Thank you.
Well, I'm glad.
>> All of a sudden, I've noticed
Mila has gained a personality.
Me having a personality is me
just being Anthony l. Williams.
Hi, how are you?
>> I'm okay.
>> I'm Anthony from Project
Runway, and I am literally
coming to take the clothes right
off your back.
I need your top, and I'm gonna
remake it on the show, and I'm
actually gonna make you my muse.
Will you help me?
>> I guess, but what would I
wear?
>> We have a white T-shirt to
give you in return, and you can
put your apron back on, then you
cinch your waist, and you're all
high-fashion all over again.
>> Okay.
>> You ready?
What's your name?
>> Mave.
>> Mave, thank you.
I'm Anthony.
This woman just caught my eye
when I initially saw her in this
amazing floral print, colorful
top, and I'm like, "I'm gonna
make you my muse."
>> I would have to buy your tank
top off of you.
Out of each ten people you ask,
there's probably gonna be two or
three people that were gonna be
willing to give you something.
>> Buy it off of me?
I don't want to sell this.
I love this tank top.
>> Are you sure?
>> Yeah, I'm sorry.
>> That's okay.
Thank you.
Can I buy your T-shirt off of
you?
>> I really can't.
>> Okay, girl.
It's super cute, though.
Enjoy it.
>> We don't have a lot of money.
>> Okay.
>> I've really got to have this
dress.
>> Um, I don't know.
I like this dress.
>> I like it too.
That's why you've got to work
with me here.
>> I'm sorry, but thank you.
>> Oh, okay.
I hate today's challenge.
I really do.
I don't like it.
It's not fun.
I wish I had more time and more
people to approach in the park.
>> There's a lot of people who
are just like, "get the eff away
from me, I don't want to talk
to you," so I was mortified.
>> Hello. Hi.
I approached this very cool,
young artist girl who had this
very funky, sort of punk glam
look.
>> I finally see this cool girl,
and she's wearing this really
pretty silk black and white
striped top.
I'm a designer, and I would love
for you to be my muse and take
this actual shirt off your back
for something.
I'd love to offer you some
money.
>> How much?
>> I have, like, $50.
Is that enough?
And I have something to give to
you so you're not walking around
with just a bra on.
>> Yeah, let's do it.
>> Oh, thank you so much.
Can I get your picture?
Thanks.
Perfect.
>> Will you be my muse?
>> Yes, I will.
>> All right, thank you.
>> You're welcome.
>> I could already envision sort
of, like, a high-fashion version
of this girl's look.
You, I think, look fabulous.
I love your style.
I love the nails, the gold and
the black.
>> You better make this
fabulous.
>> Well, you're the inspiration,
so it will be fabulous.
You're fabulous.
>> This is fabulous.
What's your name?
>> Grace.
>> Grace, hi, I'm Mondo.
I see this really, really cute
girl.
She has a great sense of style,
and she has this really
psychedelic, beautiful print.
So I was wondering if I could
buy the clothes off your back.
>> Yes.
>> Yes.
Okay, good.
Can I see that coat, please?
>> You can't buy my coat.
>> Let me--can I just look at
it?
Why--why--why are you so
attached to this coat?
>> I don't know.
I just got it.
>> What if I give you $50 for
both of them?
For this and that?
>> I'll do it for $60.
>> Okay, $60.
Okay, good, good, good, good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Thank you. Thank you, thank you.
>> Love your dress, love the
stripes.
I got to get a modern take.
Would you be willing to part
with your shirt?
I can give you $20 for it.
>> $20?
>> $20.
>> Would I get replacement
clothing?
>> I think it's pomegranate or
raspberry or fuchsia or
delicious.
I don't know what you want to
call it.
>> I'd go for delicious.
>> Delicious, so--
>> why don't you say "delicious"
in your accent again?
>> Delicious, delicious,
delicious, delicious.
>> Wow.
>> And I've even got a hula-hoop
dressing room for you and all
that.
>> Okay.
>> Okay, cool, thank you.
>> And it's gonna be with me.
>> Right.
>> If that makes any difference.
>> That--that--that makes a
difference.
>> Here you go, baby.
>> Take it off you, Bill.
Come on.
Whoo!
>> Oh, stop.
>> [Laughs]
>> I'm so appreciative, and--
>> I'll strip for you, big man.
>> That won't be necessary
today, home boy, but thank you
for the offer.
>> $20, $40, $50.
That's yours to keep.
You won't get this back, but I
promise you, it's gonna be
turned into something awesome.
When I saw her, I knew that she
was the one.
I was like...

And the sun was shining behind
her.
Chickens were hatching.
Jesus came back.
It was wonderful.
>> Hi, hot white guy.
How are you?
I'm Anthony.
What's your name?
>> Diego.
>> Diego?
Nice to meet you.
I need those shorts right off
your back.
I'm doing a show, and I need to
take them and make them--redo
'em altogether.
Take 'em off, honey.
Take 'em off.
Yay!
>> Whoo!
>> Back off, bitches!
This one's mine!
[Gasps]
It's very funny.
Some people are saying no, but
all the men say yes.
Oh!
>> Are you sure?
>> I'm sure!
Take it off!
Yes, honey!
And all I can give you in return
is a smile.
Bye-bye.
>> Whoo!
>> Get the hell away!
>> Oh, my God!
>> No!
No, no, no, no, no, no!
>> Oh, I want him!
>> Whoo!
>> I'll give you something.
You can put the hat over it.
Please, please, please.
I don't know about Anthony and
him, but I got the guy's phone
number.
>> Ladies, that's how you get a
man.
>> Ooh!

>> We have 30 minutes to shop,
and the remainder of our money
to use on whatever you need to
complete your look.
>> And I'll compare 'em all when
I'm done.
Going into Mood, I naturally
have a plan of action.
>> That's pretty.
>> I go straight to the wool
crepes, and I find exactly what
I'm looking for.
>> Ten minutes.
>> Okay.
>> How you doing?
50% of the final outfit has to
be made from things we get from
the park.
I'm using 100%.
I bought no fabric from Mood,
because I think that that is
just kind of sitting your baby
in a bear trap.
Why would you do that?
>> One yard of this.
I was afraid that maybe I'll run
out of money, but I actually had
one penny left.
>> All right, designers, time's
up.
>> I can't.
My budget's $45.
[Sighs]
>> $105.90.
>> And does that include the
thread?
>> No.
>> It seemed like everyone was
really running short on money.
Kara asked if I had any extra
money, if she could use it, but
if I had any money extra, I
absolutely would have given it.
>> Can I give back a yard of
fabric?
It was kept to a minimum.
Our budget was tight.
It was just enough for just a
little.
>> How much do you need?
>> I need $3.00.
>> Coming up on Project Runway
All Stars...
>> How are you gonna show me
this as a designer?
>> Somebody looked like they're
coming to America.
>> I'm not as inspired as I
wanted to be, and I'm screwed.
>> I think Michael's gonna give
you--
>> This one?
>> Yeah.
>> Kara, I have a dollar.
>> That would be amazing.
>> Honey, can you give her
whatever needs to complete her
transaction out of my money?
>> Here is your dollar.
>> I've got three bucks from
three of my fellow competitors,
who I love.
>> You know, I always give back
to the community.
[Laughs]
>> We all help each other where
we can.
>> Does anybody have four cents?
Just kidding.

Cute.
[Overlapping chatter]
>> I think this is a really
great challenge.
We have to use somebody in New
York City as a muse, but there's
a twist.
We need to use their clothes
straight off of their back.
>> I don't want to know where
some of these stains came from.
My first order of business is to
attack these jeans.
I need to basically make a guy's
size 34 jean into a model size
2/4.
>> My background is totally
playing into this challenge.
That's how I started designing
and learning how to make
patterns.
I would go to thrift stores and
buy a bunch of crap and, you
know, take it home and rip it
apart and see how it was
constructed, and then turn it
into something new for myself.
>> Let's see here.
I'm definitely excited about
this whole challenge.
I think it's really fun.
I'm in love with my muse.
She really is a muse in the true
sense of the word.
>> There she is.
>> Are you making, uh, hot
pants?
>> Yeah, I thought it'd be
fashion-forward, with a little
cage jacket with the belt.
I'm just getting started, but I
know that I'm going to do
separates.
>> There's more fabric in those
shorts.
This is random fabric.
>> No, it's a top going up under
there as well.
>> Oh, okay.
>> No, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
If I know how to do this, I know
how to meet the requirements of
the challenge.
The challenge requires us to use
50% of the materials that we
recovered from the street in our
design.
I have not completely chosen all
of the fabrics.
I don't know exactly how much
other people got, but I got a
lot of garments on the street.
>> In the workroom, I'm totally
stressed out.
I've been playing with this
crochet fabric, and I really
can't get anywhere with it.
I really want to use it, because
I think it has some beautiful
elements.
I have to think about it.
I just feel like I'm in a bad
spot right now, 'cause I'm not
as inspired as I wanted to be.
>> Oh, that's pretty,
Rami Kashou.
>> You like?
>> Love.
>> All right, you guys, it's
11:00.
Time to go.
>> Actually, yeah, I'm starting
to sew, but I haven't cut out
all the pattern pieces yet.
Thank you, Mondo.
>> So this morning, we wake up.
It's our second day of our sort
of street-wear, muse of a city
challenge, and we're all
anxious to really sort of get
started and--and create.
>> So are you still doing, like,
the belt and the chiffon and the
crochet?
>> Mm-hmm.
I'm gonna do--I love--that's the
idea that I like, the crocheted,
little capped sleeve.
>> Yeah, the cap.
>> Yesterday, Michael was
definitely feeling the pressure.
I mean, coming off of two wins,
he definitely has to keep up the
momentum, and I think the
pressures could be getting to
him.
>> So let's make passion.
>> Do it.
[Upbeat music]
♪ ♪
>> You know how you have, like,
a brainstorm...
>> First.
>> Well, yeah.
I want one happening now.
I don't know what I'm doing at
this point.
I'm not good with putting scraps
together to come up with beauty.
>> Okay, so you're getting
ideas.
>> Yeah, but if I don't like
that little jacket, I can still
use it as a top, as a top a
little bit.
I've moved from shorts
to now I have pants.
My jacket has gone from being a
top to now a blouse, and
possibly I have a cardigan.
>> I made this top, and today
is, like, a totally 180 for me.
I just feel so much better.
>> This time, I am going to be
working on separates, 'cause I
just think it would be cool to
show the judges something
different.
>> Let 'em have it, honey.
>> And let 'em have it.
Being in the park yesterday, I
saw a lot of exposed skin, so if
you've got a great body, show it
off in a way that, of course, is
not slutty.
>> Good morning, designers.
>> Hi.
>> Good morning.
>> I cannot wait to find out how
you got on on the streets of new
York yesterday.
It's my favorite place to look
for inspiration, and I'm gonna
come around and interrogate you
all.
Mondo.
>> Hi there.
>> I hate to interrupt you.
>> It's okay. How you doing?
>> Now, you have great street
style.
Tell me about this.
Do you have photos of it?
>> Uh, well, this is my muse.
Her name's Grace.
And so my fantasy for her is,
like, Tokyo street-wear.
>> Is this a challenge you could
win?
Because you haven't actually got
a challenge under your belt
yet, have you?
And yet I think of street style
as in your ballpark.
>> I'm feeling good.
It's just about getting this
jacket done.
I'm making priorities in what I
need to finish first, and then
just keep on knocking them out
until it's done.
>> Good.
>> Cool, thank you.
>> Okay, good luck.
>> Bye-bye.
>> Peek-a-boo.
>> Hello.
>> Hi, Jerell.
>> My muse is actually this
woman here.
>> Okay.
How are you gonna take that and
show me this as a designer?
>> Definitely in the shape.
Like, I made this neckpiece here
that's gonna be very
interesting.
It's bold, it's confident.
>> What--did you get these from
Mood?
>> No, no, no.
Actually, I got that from the
Neiman Marcus accessory wall.
>> There's some really good
stuff in there.
>> Beautiful pieces.
>> All right, so I am feeling a
little anxious about this mix.
>> When you see it all together,
it's just the right amount of
this, a little bit of that.
>> You say.
>> Yes, yes.
>> Right.
>> Jerell, hmm.
Not exactly sure what's going
on with that.
Somebody look like they're
coming to America.
>> First of all, tell me who on
earth gave up their clothes to
you?
>> She was this really cool
girl.
I wanted to just take her look
and just sort of give it a chic
glamour to it.
Um, what do you think of the
epaulets?
Are they, like, too much?
>> They're a little too
exaggerated at the moment, but I
think when they go down--
>> Right.
>> It's a pretty nice detail, I
think, especially for the belt.
>> Austin's look is a little bit
overworked.
To me, it can come across a
little cheap.
>> Hello.
>> How is it going?
>> Speaking with Joanna and
seeing Joanna is always
wonderful.
However, I have no clue what I'm
doing.
This is Mave.
>> Right.
You got this dress from Mave.
>> I got this dress from Mave.
>> What are the other things you
got?
>> I've got T-shirts from the
people who work there.
I've got shirts from boys.
I don't know if I was more
interested in the shirt or the
boy, but--
>> Well, that's not gonna help
you with your design.
>> Inspiration can come from
anywhere.
>> Well, that's true.
>> [Laughs] Uh...
>> Talk to me about the look
that you're pulling together.
>> This is gonna be, like, a
jacket, just a little, cropped
jacket.
I'm not exactly sure about the
top.
I'm trying to finish the jacket,
because I feel like because of
the busyness of the print, it's
gonna guide me in exactly where
I want to go with everything
else.
>> Okay.
I'm surprised that you're doing
this, because I still think of
you as sort of Anthony the gown
maker, but this sounds like it's
gonna come together.
>> I know Anthony's having a
really hard time with the items
that he got from Union Square.
He got a very trippy polyester
print, and, I mean, that doesn't
sound like Anthony at all.
>> Hi, Michael.
>> Hi, Joanna.
>> How's it going?
>> Um, okay.
I'm in a better place today.
>> Why?
What happened to you yesterday?
>> Well, during the last few
hours of last night, I came up
with this concept, and was able
to try and get this sort of
thing done.
>> These slightly remind me of
sort of doilies.
>> No!
"Doily" was not the word I was
wanting to hear.
>> All right, well, throw
yourself at it.
No--no playing safe, okay?
>> Michael's design looks very
amateur.
He had this lace that is not a
good look.
>> All right, guys, I'm off.
Remember, keep it edgy and have
a great runway show.
>> Thank you.
>> Okay, bye.
>> Bye.

♪ ♪
>> Do you see this?
After Joanna critiqued it and
said, "it reads off as a bit
doily," I made this top.
I really had to piece it
together.
I've never done something like
that before, and now it's
architecturally really cool.
I will piece it together until
it can't be pieced no more.

most tasteless things I've ever

challenge, I have questioned
myself so much to where that, at
this point, and it's in the

modern and chic as you were in
my head?
I am most definitely struggling
in this challenge, and I keep,
in my mind, trying to make
it work, and it keeps telling
me, "bitch, stop."
In my heart, I want to do a
straight-legged pant that is

after all.
It's so insane how she's, like,
in everybody's business this
morning, like, walking around
like a teacher.
>> They're very appropriate for
what you're doing.
Oh, my gosh, these are perfect.
Oh, what a cute hat.
No, no, no, no, cut it more.
>> Why are you trying to give
advice?
Don't you want to win?
Unbelievable.
>> I don't want to take it too
high 'cause--
>> No, no, no, not high.
>> Did you want me to finish
this for you?
>> No.
>> [Laughs]

New York to find a muse.
We asked you to persuade
people to give you the clothes
off their back to create a
fashion-forward version of
that look.
So, let's meet the judges.
First, we have designer and

Georgina Chapman.

most famous names in fashion,
Isaac Mizrahi.

>> If I call your name, please
step forward.
Kenley, Mila, Kara.
Congratulations, ladies.
You're safe.
Your designs will keep you in
the competition.
You can relax and leave the
runway.
Gentlemen, let's bring out your
models.
We'll start with you, Rami.
>> I was inspired by the
menswear take, and I wanted to
take that and sort of use it in
a womenswear type of look.
>> I like the way you put the
trim on the shorts.
They look very well made.
I can see who your woman is.
I can see the pairing, and I
think it's well-done.
>> I really like the look.
Congratulations, 'cause that's
not easy to do shorts, and her
legs look great.
>> Thank you.
>> I would love to see women in
business suits with this kind of
style, as opposed to just the
boring, conservative look.
Great.
Thank you, Rami.
Michael, you're next.
>> My muse was this bohemian
girl.
She was really cute.
And I used the shorts that I
took from one lady and
constructed this top, and used
the top that I got from one lady
and made shorts.
>> I have to say, if my daughter
ever walked out in New York in
shorts that short, she would be
put straight back through the
front door.
I don't see many women walking
around New York like that.
Maybe on the beach.
>> I thought it was a swimsuit
when I saw it come out.
>> The sagginess of the top,
that really is bothersome.
When you're talking about, like,
burning your bra, that's fine,
but don't look like that, do you
know what I mean?
>> Yeah, it needs a little more
structure.
>> I think that if it was paired
with something, maybe a jacket
or something that she just
wasn't so bare.
>> Jerell.
>> I saw this, um, mother and
son walking.
They seemed really happy.
And I love my, like, kind of
ethnic prints, and I love to mix
things.
That was kind of my inspiration.
>> She looks like someone that
should be in, like,
The Lion King or something.
>> It looks like a costume
from--from, like, stage.
>> Initially, what I wrote down
was, "Lady Gaga and Gwen
Stefani at Burning Man on acid."
[Laughter]
>> I could see that.
>> Yeah.
>> I absolutely love what you've
done on the top, and I'm torn
because of that.
See, you've got so many good
elements there, I think it,
visually, that it's just--it's
too confusing.
>> Something about that big
stomach right now, it just--it
doesn't look sexy.
It looks the opposite of sexy.
>> You should never refer to a
woman's stomach as big.
>> Sorry.
>> [Laughs]
>> Mondo.
>> Hi.
My muse was this young woman
named Grace, and the black jeans
are from a guy named Pedro.
And then, this piece of patent
was the piece I bought from
Mood.
>> I would die for this outfit.
I love it.
>> Thank you.
>> I think that, um, Grace would
be so proud.
And I love her hair.
I love her whole look.
>> Can we see the back as well?
You see a neat little detailing
in the back, and the way the
little "v" comes down with the
stripes in the shorts, and so
flattering.
>> I love how bare it is and how
covered it is and how in control
that girl is.
Everything about her, I really,
really like.
>> I could picture a lot of
girls walking around the
streets, whether you were Uptown
or Downtown or in Midtown,
wearing that.
>> Thank you, Mondo.
>> Thank you.
>> Anthony.
>> I had a lot of T-shirts, for
some reason, bright colored
T-shirts, and I had that as the
foundation, which is actually
the print in the bag.
>> So how much of this look was
actually used from fabric of the
streets?
>> Um, everything above the
waist, as well as the bag.
>> She looks beautiful.
>> I like it.
I would do a double-back on a
woman that walked by me wearing
that.
Would you?
>> Don't ask him that.
[Laughter]
>> I love the look, but part of
the judging criteria has to be
50% of the fabric, and part of
being a designer is to design
within the parameters that
you're given.
>> It's lovely, but I don't
think it really answers the
challenge.
>> Thank you, Anthony.
>> Thank you.
>> Okay, Austin, how did you get
along on the streets of New
York?
>> I found this amazing girl to
be my muse.
Her name was Jamie, and she just
had this really awesome sort of
punk rock, a little glam, sort
of girly look that I really
responded to.
>> I love the proportion.
I think it's really nice.
You really nipped her waist in.
It's very sweet, yet it has a
toughness to it too.
>> It might be a little bit too
much on the left shoulder.
>> The minute I see those kind
of details on her lapel and the
rip in her stocking, I go, "ooh,
no," because it's--she's out of
control, do you know what I
mean?
>> Yes.
>> And yet, it's fabulous.
Congratulations.
I mean, it's divine.
>> I think that your muse would
be really happy to wear this.
>> Thank you.
>> Thank you, boys.
You may leave the runway.
Let's discuss the high scorers.
Rami.
>> I have to say, I like that
somebody focused on tailoring,
but adding that hat to it...
>> As soon as she came out with
the hat, that was it for me.
It just felt too forced.
>> I do like the--the ruffled
shirt.
I like that as a business shirt.
>> I think it was very smart,
the way he used the trouser, and
I thought the construction of
the shirt was good.
I wasn't sure about the print of
the shirt.
>> Drama.
It lacks drama.
>> But it's very well made.
>> Shall we move on to Austin?
>> What I love is the way the
jacket comes right to the waist
and then the skirt goes out.
>> The construction of the
neckline bothered me slightly,
but I think the overall effect
was great.
>> And he loves a woman.
He loves making a girl look
girly in that way.
Mondo thinks about the big look
and the micro details, and he
has a great eye.
>> It was so fresh and modern,
and I think it was very much
what people are doing right
now, yet a new interpretation.
>> If I have one criticism for
Mondo, it's that it's a little
too stylish, do you know?
Like, it gives the woman
absolutely nowhere to go with it
to make it her own.
>> And then it's hard to wear
the outfit any other way.
>> And then it's hard to wear
the outfit--
>> It's like just wearing it
straight off the runway.
So let's talk about our three
lowest scores.
>> Jerell's look here is
exciting.
I see a thought process that I
like.
>> It is sort of over the top,
but there's an artistry to the
way the pieces are mixed
together, the prints, but still,
all of that stomach is not
something a girl would ever want
to show on the street.
I don't care how far downtown
she is, you know?
>> Jerell, he just put his head
down and went for it.
>> He got this part right, but
totally missed the concept of
taking it into a dress, and I
want to see him grow as a
designer.
>> When Michael's look came out,
I thought, really?
>> It was collapsing.
>> Why wouldn't he put a backing
behind those shorts?
>> He's such a good craftsman
too.
I couldn't understand why that
happened.
>> I felt bad for his model too,
'cause you could just see she
didn't feel comfortable.
I just didn't feel confidence
from either of them once they
both came out and stood in front
of us.
>> Anthony comes across to me,
especially in today's challenge,
as a bit lazy.
>> The fit was very nice on the
top, and it was clean and it was
understandable in that sense.
It's just a question of whether
we can judge him on the fact
that he didn't use fabric from
the street.
>> Well, I guess he made a purse
and a turban and a belt, so is
that 50%?
>> That's my issue.
>> That's where I am.
>> And it's got nothing to do
with his muse.
>> Look, I like that after all
these weeks from doing nothing
but dresses, suddenly he did
pants.
That's a good thing.
And I love jumpsuits.
Nobody loves a jumpsuit more
than me.
>> Oh, I love a jumpsuit.
I find them so chic.
>> [Gasps] No, I love them.
>> [Laughs]
>> So are we all agreed?
>> Agreed.
>> All right, well, let's bring
the guys out.
Designers, one of you will be
named the winner, and one of you
will be going home.
>> Designers, it's clear you had
a great time with this
challenge, but one of you will
be named the winner, and one of
you will be going home.
Rami, you are safe.
You can leave the runway.
>> Thank you.
>> Mondo, Austin, one of you
will win this week's challenge.
And that designer is...
Mondo.
>> Oh, thank you so much.
>> Congratulations.
>> Thank you.
[Applause]
Thank you.
>> Well, done, Mondo.
You're through to next week and
one step closer to that grand
prize.
You can leave the runway.
>> Bye.
I have been waiting for this,
and it feels so, so good.
>> Austin, we loved your
design.
It was a really cool look.
You can also leave the runway.
>> Thank you.
>> Jerell...
You're safe.
You can leave the runway.
>> Thank you very much.
>> Michael, Anthony, one of you
will be in, and one of you will
be out.
Michael, it's clear that you had
a tough time with this
challenge.
You had serious construction
issues, and if you're gonna show
us something that bold, it has
to be perfect.
Anthony, we saw very little
inspiration from your muse in
your design.
It was a nice outfit, but you
played it too safe, and you
didn't embrace the spirit of the
challenge.
Anthony...
I'm sorry to say you're out.
Michael, you're safe.
>> [Exhales]
I am so sorry.
>> No, don't be sorry.
>> I'm sorry.
>> Honey, I'm smiling, so you
shouldn't--don't, no.
And I have cute shoes.
>> You have cute shoes, okay.
>> You can leave the runway,
Michael.
>> Okay, thank you.
>> Anthony, thank you for being
part of All Stars.
>> Thank you.
>> You are an all star.
>> I am.
>> Mwah.
>> Thank you.
It has been my pleasure.
I wanted to push myself in this
process to be the absolute best
that I could be for Anthony, and
I have superseded my
expectations.
Hi.
I will miss the designers.
Hi.
I've met some beautiful people.
I want you to dry those tears
and fight harder.
It has truly been an amazing
experience.
I'm gonna miss the competition,
but I don't think that I had to
stay here till the end to do
what I needed to do.
I have no regrets.
I have absolutely no
disappointments this time
around.
I'm good.
>> Next on Project Runway All
Stars...
Let's make this a fashion
faceoff.
>> Oh.
>> Okay.
>> This is like Wrestlemania.
Well, fashionmania.
>> I'm glad you're doing that,
'cause I know I'll win.
>> Where'd you get the
inspiration for that shape,
Michael?
Michael is cutting the same
jacket as me.
>> Like, it's [bleep].
I got to be accused of
plagiarism?
>> There's a cozy spot for him
in the bottom.
>> I'm gonna wipe my [bleep]
with the vest.
If the gloves need to come off,
then it's about time for them to
come off.
>> I wish I had never seen that.
>> She looks like a bore.
>> This look didn't push any
creative boundaries.
>> These two looks are so
similar.

>> You only have six hours to
design a look inspired by gelato
flavors.
>> What the [bleep] am I gonna
make in six hours?
>> This is the fastest challenge
in Project Runway history.
>> I've got six hours to save
the world.
>> The whole entire room is
stressing.
>> You are the envy of every
designer in this room, because
you work so fast.
>> I've just got to deliver.
>> How can you have a fashion
moment if you're staying with
what you're comfortable with?
>> I really just need to get
something done.
>> [Bleep].
I hate this.
I don't know if I'm gonna be
able to pull it off.
>> The back is absolutely to
die for.
>> I think it's a great dress.
>> Michael, you got to call me
after the show.
[Laughter]
>> The winning designer is...
Michael.
>> Oh, my God.
>> I wanted to create
something that was light, like
the taste of the gelato.
>> The back is scary and the
belt is scary.
>> And it's just all over the
place.
>> I'm sorry, April, that
means you're out.

Original Air Date on February 2, 2012

>> We walk quite the distance
to see miss Angela waiting for
us in the hot sun.
>> Hi, designers.
>> All: Hi.
>> Welcome to Central Park.
I thought it would be nice for
you to get out of the house, get
some fresh air and sunshine.
>> Thank you.
>> You've all been working so
hard.
>> Correct, ma'am.
>> Are you ready for your next
challenge?
>> All: Yes.
>> All right.
This week's challenge is going
to be about designers and their
muse, and your challenge is to
find a muse to inspire a
fashion-forward look.
It could be anyone--a tourist,
a trendsetter, anyone.
>> I'm looking around and I'm
going, okay, um, how are we
possibly going to make something
interesting out of this, like,
casual park attire?
>> But there is an All Stars
twist.
You have to convince your muse
to give you their clothes off
their back.
>> What?
>> Hold on a second.
A stranger is gonna give us
their clothes?
>> I think that this challenge
is so amazing because I've taken
so many daggers in this
competition for having a
personality, but it will be the
fact that you have a personality
that will allow you to succeed.
>> Now, you have a budget of
$150, and you can use this to
convince your muse to give you
their clothes off their back.
And then the rest of money you
can use to get fabric at Mood.
>> Okay.
This is definitely going to be a
challenge, because, you know,
I'm practically going to walk up
to people and beg them for their
clothes.
We're in New York, so we know
that New Yorkers don't take that
[bleep] very well.
>> Half of your look must come
from your muse's clothing.
>> Okay.
>> But you all have HP cameras
so that you can take a
photograph and remember your
muse's look.
You guys want some good news?
>> Yes.
>> Yes, please.
>> You have two days to do this
challenge.
[Cheering]
I knew you'd be happy about
that.
>> Awesome.
>> Good luck.
I'll see you back on the runway
with your fashion-forward looks.
Off you go.
>> All right, let's go.
>> Oh, I'm gonna slip.
>> You run like a girl.
>> I do!
Beg, borrow, steal, I will do
whatever I have to do to get
what I need to move forward.
Oh, my God, you look amazing.
>> Can I ask you guys a
question?
>> Excuse me, hi.
>> I think you're gorgeous.
I love your style.
>> My name's Austin Scarlett.
I'm a fashion designer.
>> How are you?
>> Good, how are you?
>> Good.
Nice to meet you.
I'm Rami.
>> I love your look.
We're at the mercy of what we
can find, and then, also, it's,
like, can we actually get them
to give us the clothes?
Thank you.
Well, I'm glad.
>> All of a sudden, I've noticed
Mila has gained a personality.
Me having a personality is me
just being Anthony l. Williams.
Hi, how are you?
>> I'm okay.
>> I'm Anthony from Project
Runway, and I am literally
coming to take the clothes right
off your back.
I need your top, and I'm gonna
remake it on the show, and I'm
actually gonna make you my muse.
Will you help me?
>> I guess, but what would I
wear?
>> We have a white T-shirt to
give you in return, and you can
put your apron back on, then you
cinch your waist, and you're all
high-fashion all over again.
>> Okay.
>> You ready?
What's your name?
>> Mave.
>> Mave, thank you.
I'm Anthony.
This woman just caught my eye
when I initially saw her in this
amazing floral print, colorful
top, and I'm like, "I'm gonna
make you my muse."
>> I would have to buy your tank
top off of you.
Out of each ten people you ask,
there's probably gonna be two or
three people that were gonna be
willing to give you something.
>> Buy it off of me?
I don't want to sell this.
I love this tank top.
>> Are you sure?
>> Yeah, I'm sorry.
>> That's okay.
Thank you.
Can I buy your T-shirt off of
you?
>> I really can't.
>> Okay, girl.
It's super cute, though.
Enjoy it.
>> We don't have a lot of money.
>> Okay.
>> I've really got to have this
dress.
>> Um, I don't know.
I like this dress.
>> I like it too.
That's why you've got to work
with me here.
>> I'm sorry, but thank you.
>> Oh, okay.
I hate today's challenge.
I really do.
I don't like it.
It's not fun.
I wish I had more time and more
people to approach in the park.
>> There's a lot of people who
are just like, "get the eff away
from me, I don't want to talk
to you," so I was mortified.
>> Hello. Hi.
I approached this very cool,
young artist girl who had this
very funky, sort of punk glam
look.
>> I finally see this cool girl,
and she's wearing this really
pretty silk black and white
striped top.
I'm a designer, and I would love
for you to be my muse and take
this actual shirt off your back
for something.
I'd love to offer you some
money.
>> How much?
>> I have, like, $50.
Is that enough?
And I have something to give to
you so you're not walking around
with just a bra on.
>> Yeah, let's do it.
>> Oh, thank you so much.
Can I get your picture?
Thanks.
Perfect.
>> Will you be my muse?
>> Yes, I will.
>> All right, thank you.
>> You're welcome.
>> I could already envision sort
of, like, a high-fashion version
of this girl's look.
You, I think, look fabulous.
I love your style.
I love the nails, the gold and
the black.
>> You better make this
fabulous.
>> Well, you're the inspiration,
so it will be fabulous.
You're fabulous.
>> This is fabulous.
What's your name?
>> Grace.
>> Grace, hi, I'm Mondo.
I see this really, really cute
girl.
She has a great sense of style,
and she has this really
psychedelic, beautiful print.
So I was wondering if I could
buy the clothes off your back.
>> Yes.
>> Yes.
Okay, good.
Can I see that coat, please?
>> You can't buy my coat.
>> Let me--can I just look at
it?
Why--why--why are you so
attached to this coat?
>> I don't know.
I just got it.
>> What if I give you $50 for
both of them?
For this and that?
>> I'll do it for $60.
>> Okay, $60.
Okay, good, good, good, good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Thank you. Thank you, thank you.
>> Love your dress, love the
stripes.
I got to get a modern take.
Would you be willing to part
with your shirt?
I can give you $20 for it.
>> $20?
>> $20.
>> Would I get replacement
clothing?
>> I think it's pomegranate or
raspberry or fuchsia or
delicious.
I don't know what you want to
call it.
>> I'd go for delicious.
>> Delicious, so--
>> why don't you say "delicious"
in your accent again?
>> Delicious, delicious,
delicious, delicious.
>> Wow.
>> And I've even got a hula-hoop
dressing room for you and all
that.
>> Okay.
>> Okay, cool, thank you.
>> And it's gonna be with me.
>> Right.
>> If that makes any difference.
>> That--that--that makes a
difference.
>> Here you go, baby.
>> Take it off you, Bill.
Come on.
Whoo!
>> Oh, stop.
>> [Laughs]
>> I'm so appreciative, and--
>> I'll strip for you, big man.
>> That won't be necessary
today, home boy, but thank you
for the offer.
>> $20, $40, $50.
That's yours to keep.
You won't get this back, but I
promise you, it's gonna be
turned into something awesome.
When I saw her, I knew that she
was the one.
I was like...

And the sun was shining behind
her.
Chickens were hatching.
Jesus came back.
It was wonderful.
>> Hi, hot white guy.

She was really cute.
And I used the shorts that I
took from one lady and
constructed this top, and used
the top that I got from one lady
and made shorts.
>> I have to say, if my daughter
ever walked out in New York in
shorts that short, she would be

I don't see many women walking
around New York like that.
Maybe on the beach.

When you're talking about, like,
burning your bra, that's fine,
but don't look like that, do you
know what I mean?
>> Yeah, it needs a little more
structure.

or something that she just
wasn't so bare.

son walking.

some reason, bright colored

actually used from fabric of the

waist, as well as the bag.
>> She looks beautiful.
>> I like it.
I would do a double-back on a
woman that walked by me wearing
that.
Would you?
>> Don't ask him that.
[Laughter]
>> I love the look, but part of
the judging criteria has to be
50% of the fabric, and part of
being a designer is to design
within the parameters that
you're given.

think it really answers the
challenge.
>> Thank you, Anthony.
>> Thank you.
>> Okay, Austin, how did you get
along on the streets of New
York?

be my muse.
Her name was Jamie, and she just
had this really awesome sort of
punk rock, a little glam, sort
of girly look that I really
responded to.
>> I love the proportion.
I think it's really nice.
You really nipped her waist in.
It's very sweet, yet it has a
toughness to it too.
>> It might be a little bit too
much on the left shoulder.

rip in her stocking, I go, "ooh,

shirt.
I like that as a business shirt.

the way he used the trouser, and
I thought the construction of
the shirt was good.
I wasn't sure about the print of

neckline bothered me slightly,
but I think the overall effect
was great.
>> And he loves a woman.
He loves making a girl look
girly in that way.
Mondo thinks about the big look
and the micro details, and he
has a great eye.
>> It was so fresh and modern,
and I think it was very much
what people are doing right
now, yet a new interpretation.
>> If I have one criticism for
Mondo, it's that it's a little
too stylish, do you know?
Like, it gives the woman
absolutely nowhere to go with it
to make it her own.
>> And then it's hard to wear
the outfit any other way.
>> And then it's hard to wear
the outfit--
>> It's like just wearing it
straight off the runway.
So let's talk about our three
lowest scores.
>> Jerell's look here is
exciting.
I see a thought process that I
like.
>> It is sort of over the top,
but there's an artistry to the
way the pieces are mixed
together, the prints, but still,
all of that stomach is not
something a girl would ever want
to show on the street.
I don't care how far downtown
she is, you know?
>> Jerell, he just put his head
down and went for it.
>> He got this part right, but
totally missed the concept of
taking it into a dress, and I
want to see him grow as a
designer.
>> When Michael's look came out,
I thought, really?
>> It was collapsing.
>> Why wouldn't he put a backing
behind those shorts?
>> He's such a good craftsman
too.
I couldn't understand why that
happened.
>> I felt bad for his model too,
'cause you could just see she
didn't feel comfortable.
I just didn't feel confidence
from either of them once they
both came out and stood in front
of us.
>> Anthony comes across to me,
especially in today's challenge,
as a bit lazy.
>> The fit was very nice on the
top, and it was clean and it was
understandable in that sense.
It's just a question of whether
we can judge him on the fact
that he didn't use fabric from
the street.
>> Well, I guess he made a purse
and a turban and a belt, so is
that 50%?
>> That's my issue.
>> That's where I am.
>> And it's got nothing to do
with his muse.
>> Look, I like that after all
these weeks from doing nothing
but dresses, suddenly he did
pants.
That's a good thing.
And I love jumpsuits.
Nobody loves a jumpsuit more
than me.
>> Oh, I love a jumpsuit.
I find them so chic.
>> [Gasps] No, I love them.
>> [Laughs]
>> So are we all agreed?
>> Agreed.
>> All right, well, let's bring
the guys out.
Designers, one of you will be
named the winner, and one of you
will be going home.
>> Designers, it's clear you had
a great time with this
challenge, but one of you will
be named the winner, and one of
you will be going home.
Rami, you are safe.
You can leave the runway.
>> Thank you.
>> Mondo, Austin, one of you
will win this week's challenge.
And that designer is...
Mondo.
>> Oh, thank you so much.
>> Congratulations.
>> Thank you.
[Applause]
Thank you.
>> Well, done, Mondo.
You're through to next week and
one step closer to that grand
prize.
You can leave the runway.
>> Bye.
I have been waiting for this,
and it feels so, so good.
>> Austin, we loved your
design.
It was a really cool look.
You can also leave the runway.
>> Thank you.
>> Jerell...
You're safe.
You can leave the runway.
>> Thank you very much.
>> Michael, Anthony, one of you
will be in, and one of you will
be out.
Michael, it's clear that you had
a tough time with this
challenge.
You had serious construction
issues, and if you're gonna show
us something that bold, it has
to be perfect.
Anthony, we saw very little
inspiration from your muse in
your design.
It was a nice outfit, but you
played it too safe, and you
didn't embrace the spirit of the
challenge.
Anthony...
I'm sorry to say you're out.
Michael, you're safe.
>> [Exhales]
I am so sorry.
>> No, don't be sorry.
>> I'm sorry.
>> Honey, I'm smiling, so you
shouldn't--don't, no.
And I have cute shoes.
>> You have cute shoes, okay.
>> You can leave the runway,
Michael.
>> Okay, thank you.
>> Anthony, thank you for being
part of All Stars.
>> Thank you.
>> You are an all star.
>> I am.
>> Mwah.
>> Thank you.
It has been my pleasure.
I wanted to push myself in this
process to be the absolute best
that I could be for Anthony, and
I have superseded my
expectations.
Hi.
I will miss the designers.
Hi.
I've met some beautiful people.
I want you to dry those tears
and fight harder.
It has truly been an amazing
experience.
I'm gonna miss the competition,
but I don't think that I had to
stay here till the end to do
what I needed to do.
I have no regrets.
I have absolutely no
disappointments this time
around.
I'm good.
>> Next on Project Runway All
Stars...
Let's make this a fashion
faceoff.
>> Oh.
>> Okay.
>> This is like Wrestlemania.
Well, fashionmania.
>> I'm glad you're doing that,
'cause I know I'll win.
>> Where'd you get the
inspiration for that shape,
Michael?
Michael is cutting the same
jacket as me.
>> Like, it's [bleep].
I got to be accused of
plagiarism?
>> There's a cozy spot for him
in the bottom.
>> I'm gonna wipe my [bleep]
with the vest.
If the gloves need to come off,
then it's about time for them to
come off.
>> I wish I had never seen that.
>> She looks like a bore.
>> This look didn't push any
creative boundaries.
>> These two looks are so
similar.
