Designers,

by the end of tonight a final three will be decided. The three that are declared as "in" will continue under LBM's roof to DeviantArt Fashion Week. They will need to create a nine-piece collection that will be graded by LBM judges, who will then declare LBM's second winner.

But first,

tonight's challenge results.




Oipanda, please step forward.
















F0xr0x, please step forward.
















Enigmamoshi16 please step forward.


















Bluecranberries please step forward.































If I have called your name, please leave the runway for a moment. You have not won the challenge.



*APPLAUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* Congratulations, Kar-tastic. You will be traveling to DeviantArt Fashion week as a LBM contestant. Best of luck formulating the collection.

As for the other designers, you may return onto the runway.

Kar-tastic: You didn't state a theme of your collection... but it was cohesive anyway. To pin down what the judges think... we felt would be describing it to be country clubbish and Gatsbyesque. It had your chic-yet-positive looking uptown-Kari beat that the judges love. what your peers may have not fully developed is a strong yet intangible style that you, amongst other great designers in the world, possess without having to say a word.

As per the rest of you, well, let me first say that ALL OF YOU DID A GREAT JOB. The judges never had a more difficult judge-chat in the history of this season's competition, so you can pat yourselves on the back. The judges will be critical of you, but it doesn't mean that we're not proud of your progress. This week truly is picking out "the best" submissions, as opposed to other weeks where we simply had to choose "the worst".

Oipanda: It was very girly and positive... You were close to pulling off an overall intangible cohesiveness, yet what seems quarrelsome is the varying degree of sexy femininity versus demure femininity in the silhouettes. The near-knee sleeved dress on the right seems to jump away from its sexy sister look in the middle. And the one on the left seems just frothy and feminine. But in end... an unapologetic girliness to the collection bound everything together.
F0xr0x: The collection is cohesive.. that doesn't really even need discussion. The issue is the messiness in the pieces... take the leftmost dress perhaps. Is that slit really going all the way up the side of her thigh? And the swimsuit... lots of strips dots and colors, and paired with a pouffed tulle shawl. Indeed this was a united collection, but at such a critical time of dawn, the judges feel you didn't restrain yourself.
Enigmamoshi13: The gown... it's gorgeous. Vogue would melt all over it. The judges' queries lie within the other outfits... well the tops of them. The tops look pretty and colors are nice, but that's the only silhouette innovation you're putting into it? Everyone has seen the twist-bubble top and cross-strap top in their local easy-chic magazine. The judges are looking for the high fashion ready-to-wear and not the silhouettes that seem inexpensive. we're looking for the fashion you expressed in those pretty palazzo pants... and that gorgeous gown.
Bluecranberries: Unlike a lot of your peers, you did state the theme of the collection. The problem we found in yours is that each look didn't exactly have a binding essence. They look like clothing for different woman, not for a single woman that just shares the taste your circus inspired collection conveys. And whilst the mistakes, your talent does shine through (that pretty, sexy forties-esque swimsuit). But the gown... the gray-applied-to-nude color you chose and the fact that her belly-button is sticking out... for us it wasn't an Emmy winner.

The next one I will call to move onto fashion week...
















































Oipanda! *APPLAUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* Congratulations and good luck in the finals!

And the final one to move onto the finals...
