"If I continue to feel like this, it's not going to be a good day." Back at the workspace, the three meet up with the former contestants who have been brought back to help. The work begins as soon as cutie Logan is done giving cutie Carol a hug.
But while Irina and Althea work, Carol begins to weep. "There's so much to do," she cries. "This isn't how it's supposed to go." This time, Christopher is there to comfort his temporary teammate. The contestants then head off to hair and makeup for some major product placement, before a fitting with their models. Althea is especially worried about the fit of her creations, which hug her models like Logan hugs Carol.
Tim enters to access the damage, or lack thereof. "Frankly, I think it's beautiful," he says of Irina's 13th outfit, a sleek, black dress. Althea, in the meantime, shows off her last look, which features exaggerated jacket shoulders and pants. She then explains her "messy" makeup plan for the models. "That sounds like what Irina was telling me," Tim comments. Uh oh. Irina, of course, already suspects Althea of ripping her off. "That's Althea!" Irina snaps. MEE-OW! Next is Carol, who explains that she is feeling "OKish." Tim urges Carol to take advantage of Christopher's extra hands.
The next morning, the sewing and clipping kicks into overdrive as the contestants literally run from outfit to outfit. Luckily, Carol feels much better. Tim enters for a "last little gather around." After he offers a few words of encouragement, Irina starts barking orders. "I'm nervous," she says. "I don't want any last-minute surprises." Says Carol: "If you forget one thing, it can be disastrous." The work ends and the ladies head to bed for a few hours. The alarm clock goes off at 3 a.m. Time to get back to work. "Today is basically what this whole thing is about," Irina tells the camera.
The three walk into the big tent at Bryant Park. Soon enough, the models enter. Hair! Makeup! Crowds! Judges! Celebrities! But it's all progressing too slow for a certain mentor. "Designers, I am about to lose it!" Tim yells. "We should be lining up right now!" We've never seen Tim so emotional -- and neither have the contestants. FINALLY, all the models are dressed. And who walks out onto the runway? It's Heidi! "Allo, everybody!" she squeaks. "Today is our season six fee-nal-ee." She then introduces the judges, Michael, Nina and Suzy Menkes. Let the show begin!
Althea is up first. "I honestly feel like I'm about to show you a piece of my soul," she tells the crowd. "I was inspired by sci-fi movies from the 50s and 60s and how they saw the future." The lights dim and the cat-walking starts! And guess what? Althea loves her stuff! "I'm 100 percent happy with it," she says. "I would wear every single piece." But would the judges? Lots of leather and high boots later, the crowd shows its appreciation.
Next up is Carol. "This collection is very near and dear to my heart," she says. "So enjoy." The models strut and Carol is moved by her own creativity. "It feels amazing to send all this work out," she says. "Every thing looks exactly how I want it to." Lots of flowing fabric and ruffles later, the crowd applauds wildly. Cutie Carol takes a bow.
Finally, here comes the Irina. "My collection is really about New York," she says. "It's really about what it takes to survive in this city as a woman." The designer is pleased. "It's always feminine and sexy, but this time around it's a lot tougher," she says. Indeed, some of the women dressed in all black and wearing couture party hats look downright badass. The crowd goes nuts! It's going to be another close one, folks.
Time for the judges' comments. The designers emerge from backstage to face the proverbial music. First up is Irina. "Quite honestly, we've seen a lot of the warrior woman," Michael says. "She's not a new character on the scene." Suzy and Heidi don't have a bad word to say. Nina especially liked the hand-designed t-shirts, but wonders why Irina used so much black. "Imagine the effect when you shoot it for a magazine," she says. "We talked about this." Not enough, apparently.
Second is Carol, who gets high marks from Nina on her draping. Heidi absolutely LOVES the Grecian goddess dress. That said, she had a hard time seeing it as a 13-piece collection. Michael agrees. The "cohesion" isn't as strong as it might have been. Finally, Althea steps forward. "I have to say bravo for seeing sports wear," Michael says. Nina loves the dashes of color in a knit-green dress. Heidi loves the skirt/shiny top look. Suzy appreciates all the knitting, but wonders how it fits in with the futuristic theme.
One judges' confab later, the designers reemerge. "One of you will be the winner of 'Project Runway,'" Heidi explains.
Carol is ... OUT!
So it all comes down to Irina vs. Althea. How appropriate. "Congratulations, Irina," Heidi says. "You are the winner!" Irina begins to weep. Tim enters! Irina's family enters! Many congrats are thrown out. Even Irina's father cries. "I think he is finally going to take me seriously about this whole fashion adventure that I'm on," Irina tells the camera.
Until next season, planet Earth.
