Zoe Made It Work

On last night’s episode of Project Runway, the designers went for an outing to Governor’s Island in seek of inspiration for their catwalk designs. After taking in the surroundings and gathering their fabrics the designers were informed it would be a team challenge and previously eliminated contestants were brought back to assist. The designers were on pins and needles wondering who would make it to the final four, and more importantly who would get the opportunity to show their collection in Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.

 

As the panel of judges entered the room they introduced none other than Zoë as this week’s guest judge! Zoë’s experience in walking countless red carpets paired with her knowledge of fashion (hello MyFDB!) made for great commentary, providing the contestants with honest feedback. Zoë sported a red hot jumpsuit designed by fellow judge, Michael Kors. In the end, Anya, Viktor, Kimberly, and Josh were in; leaving poor Laura and her circle designs out. What did you think of the episode? Do you agree with the judges on sending Laura home?
