Prajje): As much as I appreciate the creativity of Prajje’s design, I think Bishme’s is the clear winner here. I think the concept is fun, but the construction is a bit lacking-there are threads hanging out, and some pieces look haphazardly stuck-on rather than intentionally placed. Bishme): I love the textile Prajje has created with interlocking belt loops on his sleeveless jumpsuit it takes what would be a classic, flattering but ultimately ordinary design into an entirely new dimension. Bless her.) A few thoughts on the week’s line-up: This episode’s guest judges are fashion designer Willy Chavarria and actress and model Julia Fox. Thankfully, all the models are clothed by the time the runway opens.

Kara Saun gets first choice of whom to fight, and she picks Anna-a strategic move, considering the latter has never worked with denim.

To make matters even more exciting, the designers will be facing off in head-t0-head battles, with the losers up for elimination and the winners carried through safely to the next round. When our (by this point, thoroughly exhausted) cohort arrive in Westport, Connecticut, to tour Christian’s latest outpost, he informs them that “every major designer”-himself included-is “doing denim.” Naturally, then, episode 8’s one-day challenge is to craft a head-to-toe look using only recycled jeans.
