This week on The Fashion Show, the teams were given a Mini Challenge to do four different repairs to a garment in a tag-team competition. They had to repair a shoulder pad, a hem, a zipper and a button. None of these is brain surgery, but when the team is trying to do each one faster than the other two teams, it’s not easy. The winning team was Lidia, Merlin, James-Paul & Angel.

For the Elimination Challenge, the teams were told to design outerwear for each of the four seasons. And to add a twist, each garment had to have a way to transform into something else or into performing another function.

James-Paul made a coat that turned into a sleeping bag. Yikes! Reco created a futuristic jumpsuit that had a wrap that could be unfolded. Markus added a jewelry roll in the collar of his coat.

Andrew ripped off the entire idea for his garment from Daniella and there was, of course, resulting drama.

Keith said that he wasn’t a fan of the challenge because he didn’t need his coat to be a refrigerator. LOL!

The designs were fascinating. Some were wonderful and I could see them selling just as they are. Some were complete train wrecks. But the runway show was absolutely fun to watch.

Haven & Markus had the least favorite two designs. Both were awful. After all was done, the judges sent home Markus. My favorite was Anna’s coat, but the judges chose Andrew’s raincoat as the winner.

What did you think of this week’s episode? Do you agree with the judges about the winner and the loser? Let us know!
