Challenge 4 ✧ Orange is the New Black
Designers, Orange is the New Black might be a hit show but we judges certainly feel like that isn't the truth when it comes to the rules of fashion. Do you also hate orange? Do you agree it's the most stressful of colors to work with? We judges are challenging you to push past those misgivings and give us a look that embraces orange! It must primarily consist of orange, but beyond that, the only limits are the ones you give yourselves. Make us believe that orange truly is the new black!

Challenge #5: OMG! What is THAT?!
Description: Designers, have you ever been strolling down the
street or flipping through a magazine and had to do a double take
because something was just so...hideous? Maybe you've seen this
hideous thing and thought you could make it work. That is the energy
we want you to channel this week. Below are the items you can choose
from for this challenge. See the swan beyond the ugly duckling designers,
and show us that beauty is all in the eye of the beholder!
FaithEmblem — Luz = 95% (Total Score: 38 pts.)
Style:9 • Creativity:10 • Motif:10 • Description:9
Comments: I enjoy Faith's take on the challenge. Being the first one
to do a fashion reference, and execute it well in such a dynamic setting
is such a joy to see. Faith managed to elevate the tube with her styling
choices. Seeing the tube without sticking out like a sore thumb is a feat
already, but having it as the centerpiece, and accentuating the concept
with the color scheme and combination of items, the entry just screams
pool party but made fashion. I would've preferred a more colorful eye look
to tie better with the bright colors, but that's just me nitpicking. This is a
great entry from Faith.
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven = 83.75%(Total Score: 33.5)
Style:7.5 • Creativity:9 • Motif:8 • Description:9
Comments: I applaud Serena for going back to the drawing board, and
creating such a grunge, punky, and stylish look we've seen yet of Serena.
This is another creative take with the tube, and I'm into the badassery of it.
The colors suit Raven well, but I would've preferred a different colored shorts
or a less red background because I am having a bit of a hard time looking for
Serena's bottom half. But I'm down for more of this type of styling.
excites — Serena = 85% (Total Score: 34)
Style:8 • Creativity:8 • Motif:9 • Description:9
Comments: I like excites' straightforward descriptions, but taking in our
critiques of it just being plain and adding their emotions made their description
all the better. Still straightforward, but I can tell they took just as much time
with writing as they did with their outfit. Having polka dots consistently
throughout the outfit, and with color scheme, the tube blended in well.
What's standing out for me in this entry is the background choices, it helped
elevate what's already a pretty solid clown look. But it would've been nice to
see Serena pose more dynamically and energetically. Having such a fun
concept, and being big and bold about it, I would've liked to see Serena have
a more animated pose to really take it to the next level.
the purple mew — Eunwoo = 88.75% (Total Score: 35.5)
Style:9 • Creativity:7.5 • Motif:10 • Description:9
Comments: Mew did such a great job blending in the tube she chose.
With the B&W, and the clown concept, this reads "Terrifier", but mew made it
fashionable. Some may argue that the ugly item should be upfront and
center, but with the concept and styling choices, I'm impressed the tube fit in
the outfit so well. At first, I thought it looked like a layer of ruffle on the skirt.
The background choice was the cherry on top of the creepy cake that we've
been served. The whole entry reads "Terrifier" meets "The Ring", with the
old TV and statics. Mew outdid herself this challenge, I'm thoroughly
surprised and impressed.
Princess Warfare — Brandie = 86.25% (Total Score: 34.5)
Style:7.5 • Creativity:9 • Motif:9 • Description:9
Comments: IDK if the intention for the entry was fashion ugly, meets
2000's emo, with a touch of clown and decora, but I enjoy Princess' entry.
It's bright, colorful, and fun. There's lots of elements to it that works almost
harmoniously, and the tube fits right in with the beautiful chaos that is the
outfit. I would've loved to see this in a more interesting silhouette, though.
For such a fun idea, I wish the silhouette was just as exciting as the outfit.
But, this is such a fun entry from Princess.
Kr-E — Cheska = 90% (Total Score: 36)
Style:8.5 • Creativity:10 • Motif:9 • Description:8.5
Comments: This is by far the most creative take on this challenge out
of the bunch. This is so left field with what I was expecting, that Kr-E steered
herself into making such a wondrous entry. IDK why but this is giving such
an ethereal feel, maybe it's because it was meant to be "magical realism".
I don't entirely see the "Bauhaus" part of this outfit, but the entry
is exuding so much ethereality that I don't mind. I can't exactly put my finger
on what it's supposed to give, but it's such a well-made entry. I'm intrigued.
Detrimentum — Eryn = 68.75% (Total Score: 27.5)
Style:7 • Creativity:6 • Motif:8 • Description:6.5
Comments: Detri hit the nail on the head with her reference. Eryn's
outfit is giving Moschino tube dress the house down. This shade of purple
works great on Eryn, and the tube blends well with everything. I wouldn't call
this entry "less colorful" though. "Monochrome" might be the better word
for it. The actual reference photo Detri provided, with her take on the
spring collection is passable. The background choice being a runway reads
well. Had this been the only Moschino tube dress reference out in the bunch,
this entry alone is a standout, but next to Faith's, Detri's entry got outshined.
Not a whole lot, but comparing oranges to lemons, this entry does feel less
than. But for what this is, this is a beautiful take for this challenge.
BloodAngel95 — Raine = 73.75% (Total Score: 29.5)
Style:5.5 • Creativity:8 • Motif:8 • Description:8
Comments: The colors read Cruella, but the outfit reads more "cards".
I enjoy it at first glance, but reading through the process and what it was
meant to be, it's conceptually scrambled and all over the place. I get that
it's Halloween and it's meant to be scary, but I find the concept confusing.
I thought Raine was meant to be a deck of cards. I like it for what it is, it's
interesting to see, but IDK what it's supposed to be. Is it a bat? Is it Cruella?
Is it a ghost? IDK. It's not ugly, just confusing.
Serafiella — Tessa = 40% (Total Score: 16)
Style:3 • Creativity:1 • Motif:5 • Description:7
Comments: Oof. I think Sera misunderstood the challenge
for this one. With the concept, the tube works to a T. With how it's
styled, it's simple. That's it. This entry, along with everyone else's, this
isn't what I wanted to see at all, let alone from Sera. My only positive
critique is that the background works well with the outfit. For what it is, this
is cute and simple, but knowing the name of the game, this ain't it.

Challenge #5: OMG! What is THAT?!
Description: Designers, have you ever been strolling down the
street or flipping through a magazine and had to do a double take
because something was just so...hideous? Maybe you've seen this
hideous thing and thought you could make it work. That is the energy
we want you to channel this week. Below are the items you can choose
from for this challenge. See the swan beyond the ugly duckling designers,
and show us that beauty is all in the eye of the beholder!
FaithEmblem — Luz: 50%
Style:3 • Motif:3 • Creativity:8 • Description:6
Comments: Not sure why our girl is so incapable of sorting out the uploading of the
pictures. Oh well. Don't like the make up/face, even though it seems like it is becoming
her signature. Um..idk, I don't like it. It's kind of fun, but the inner tube/floatie just doesn't
look like it belongs. The black boots are particularly heavy, and the baubles on the head
are...fish tanks? Description says pool balls. Sure. I see the idea and what the goal was.
I really like the Moschino inspiration. But I just don't like it. Either match things to the
bright yellow of the inner tube or don't, but this like pale imitation is just disappointing. If
she had drawn more from the inspiration and added more pool floats and toys I think it
would have sold the look a lot better.
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven: 87.5%
Style:9 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: First impression is this isn't too bad. I like the way the inner tube looks
like a mix of belt and like...sweatshirt pouch. Don't like the hat being nearly the same
red as her hair. I like the over all balance and the blue splash in the background is a
fun touch. She looks cool on her knees but her feet just kind of disappear. In a bad
way. But since it isn't the main view submission I can life with it. Those few negative
marks aside, I really like this a lot after reading the description. Serena absolutely
nailed what she was going for.
excites — Serena: 90%
Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:9 • Description:9
Comments: This was a better description, kudos to excites! This was also the first
look from her, pun intended, to excite me! This tickled every fancy right out the gate.
Fun inspiration again. At first I thought I hated the fact the polka dot top practically
disappeared into the background, but then it just grew on me so so much. This look
uses the inner tube so well, and love the over all color scheme. This is a complete
entry from corner to corner, I love that. I also think this make up is on point. And the
initial like commercial part of the description? Love those touches!
the purple mew — Eunwoo: 73.75%
Style:7 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:9 • Description:6
Comments: I can't see it. I don't like this filter!! Aside from that...this is pretty great!
I think the inner tube is hidden a little too much and doesn't fit into the look, even if it
was the main inspiration and what lead to clown. This is creepy and clown and is what
mew was aiming for, and I admire that. Appreciate it. Just...can't see enough to give it
higher points. I almost wish there was a submission that didn't include the filter.
Princess Warfare — Brandie: 82.5%
Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:7.5
Comments: Positive feelings. I know exactly what she is describing with the core
memory, and my elder millennial heart is happy with the memory of the good ol' days.
Brandie didn't make me think of that image quite as much as like Y2K Tokyo street
vibes. I feel like there is a disconnect between the description and what we actually
see. But I love it so much. I love that it is still an inner tube, but it isn't like she is at a
pool, nor is she anything to make it make sense. Out of left field it works and I like it.
Good color scheme too. Idk, I really really like this for this challenge.
Kr-E — Cheska: 75%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:6.5
Comments: Not sure the inner tube works/adds anything to the look but I do like the
way this looks over all. It's a little messy, but every individual detail I see is just great.
The eel/snake? Love it with an inner tube. The goal was to be flipping through and to
ask 'is that an inner tube' and Kr-E succeeded in their goal. The white roses/flowers
on the tights to yin-yang the white and black roses above? Great. I like the make up.
Not sure I like the base dress/those other details, but over all? This is a strong look
this week and shows so many smart decisions.
Detrimentum — Eryn: 77.5%
Style:7.5 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7 • Description:8.5
Comments: I don't love this. I want to! I love the purple color over all and think it is
a suuuuper beautiful color for Eryn. But I just don't think I like the inner tube. Doesn't
connect enough or make sense to me. Another Moschino inspired design. This one is
more successful, even if it isn't my favorite. The work put into this is amazing, just like
it always is with Detri. Can never say she doesn't put enough work into her entries. Ok.
The more I look at this and read the description, it is growing on me more. Still not a top
look for me, but I like it.
BloodAngel95 — Raine: 75%
Style:7 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:8 • Description:7.5
Comments: The relief I feel that Angel could still turn out a look after changing up
her model is intense. This is not my favorite look, just a little too busy and I can't keep
my focus. But it does succeed with the inner tube. The dots compliments things and
the volume of the rest of the look balances out the volume of the tube. This look is
just fine over all. Fine! But it is just hard to see all the details.
Serafiella — Tessa: 50%
Style:6 • Motif:6 • Creativity:0 • Description:8
Comments: This 50% is me being generous. Kind. Because you're given an inner
tube and told to use it, and you give us a freaking bonfire beach scene? This could
not be a lazier entry. I am SO underwhelmed. Like it looks fine for what it is? Don't
get the extra cute bag? Color scheme is cute. I just..this is so basic! So easy! There
was quite literally no creativity. Nothing special. Sorry Sera.

Challenge #6: Model Makeover
Designers, we have some terrible news! Your models are
all having a bad hair day, and they have a photoshoot in five minutes! What's
a girl to do? Hide the bad hair beneath a wig of course! This challenge you
are allowed to switch out your model's hair for any hair of your choosing.
Only the hair. But remember, this shouldn't look like a dollar wig fresh out the
bag. Every model should be able to convince us that "tHiS iS mUh ReAyL hAiYR"
FaithEmblem — Luz: 72.5%
Style:7 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:7
Comments: Yes! This is a fantastic choice of different hair for Luz, really embracing the
spirit of the challenge. It is dynamic and bold, atta girl Faith! And thank god the uploading
of pictures has been resolved! It really makes such a good difference. Not sure how I feel
about the freckles, are they make up, are they a mod, idk. Also not sure they really add to
the look. This is simple, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. It is well composed, as well
as balanced. But at the same time there could be so much more. I'm distracted by the
rounded flower things under her elbows. Are they pillows? Weird.
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven: 62.5%
Style:8 • Motif:7 • Creativity:7 • Description:3
Comments: First thought is the wig could have been more creative, this kind of feels
like an obvious choice. Is part of the skirt the color or her skin, or are those her legs?
Either way I find it distracting. Over all this is lovely though, simple. Description does
almost nothing for me. It kind of comes across as whiny, and I want to know why you
made a decision. Why this hair? Why this design/photoshoot? No one knows because
the description didn't tell us.
excites — Serena: 88.75%
Style:9.5 • Motif:10 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
Comments: Again, not sure how I feel about the freckles and where they land on the mod
to make up spectrum, but I think they really suit Serena and do add something to this look,
so I'm feeling much more positively about these than I did the ones on Luz. This is a strong
look from excites, and I love the buns. The whole composition makes sense, I see a complete
story and am not left questioning things. The bench thing looks like one leg is on a flower which
is a little odd, but that's really it visually. The description was decent.
the purple mew — Eunwoo: 90%
Style:9 • Motif:9 • Creativity:10 • Description:8
Comments: I this is is my favorite look of the week. It is just beautiful, and a damn near
perfect hair for Eunwoo. The color isn't too varied from her standard hair, but the cut and
style of it is so different it makes a big impact. Not thrilled about the way it layers behind
the sheer skirts, but that is just being nitpicky. Could have used more how in the description.
But this is a great look, and it is one that I keep thinking about.
Princess Warfare — Brandie: 77.5%
Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
Comments: Great, dynamic, different wig for Brandie! Nailed that part of the challenge
without a doubt for me. Parts of the look are really nice, I certainly like it over all, but
there are some decisions that drag it down. The white sleeves seem almost garishly
white and bold, and the dark framing around the look only heightens how white they
are, and just kind of weighs down the entire look. The description is great though.
Kr-E — Cheska: 67.5%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:5 • Description:6
Comments: This hair is not the most creative, but it is flattering on Cheska. I also
like the over all color scheme of the look, I like the look being sexy and cute at the
same time. Honestly this might be the best her face has ever looked though. I am
again disappointed by the description, it's just meh. Didn't give me enough, I want
more thoughts on the design as a whole.
Detrimentum — Eryn: 95%
Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:9 • Description:10
Comments: This is what I want from a wig challenge! Bold choice, different from her
normal hair, and yet still entirely suits the model and really draws from her other base
features. I don't think any of the other designers quite paid that attention to their wig
choice. And using that to also guide the entire look and form the story is excellent.
I like the pops of color, and adding in the extra earring was smart. Might have liked
a different background, maybe just a slightly different shade/color scheme so it wasn't
quite so blended. But this is a great look.
BloodAngel95 — Raine: 82.5%
Style:7 • Motif:8 • Creativity:9 • Description:9
Comments: This hair really suits Raine, and while it isn't the MOST unexpected, or all
that different from her usual hair, I'm okay with that. Love the thought put into it and the
reasons given for different decisions. Colors are good together, and while I like the design
of the jacket, but the color of the jacket is a little light compared to everything else. Angel
is right that the fall leaves suit the season, but I can't ignore trees on the roof. That type of
roof view and style especially.

Challenge #7: Night of 1000 Icons
Designers, we thought it was time to pay tribute to those
that entertain us. We want to see your models dressed up like their favorite
pop icon! Now we know that pop icon is a broad definition, so we would like
you to pick a pop icon from this list. This should be fun! Can't wait to see all
these stars on the same red carpet.
FaithEmblem — Luz: 72.5%
Style:7 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:7 • Description:7.5
Comments: I'm not a huge fan of Courtney Love, but I do think she was a smart choice
for Luz, and I see her in this design. This look is simple but smartly done. The heart may
be a little on the nose, but I like it. I just wish we could have seen more of the outfit, wish
she was a little more disheveled. The idea of just starting the set makes sense, but I think
Luz's features would have also worked with the exhaustion at the end of the performance,
and I think that level of dishevelment would have been better.
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven: 72.5%
Style:6 • Motif:6 • Creativity:7 • Description:10
Comments: This is messy. I wish she has added the reference picture. I do get Cyndi
Lauper from the look though. The outfit, colors, all a good ode to Cyndi. Don't think
Raven would win any lookalike contests, but I knew who she was and that's great in
this challenge. Either the fireworks or confetti is too much. This description is much
better than the first. Over all, I feel perfectly neutral.
excites — Serena: 91.25%
Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:8.5 • Description:9
Comments: It was clear this was Rihanna from a mile away, and I love that. This is a
better use of the fishnet leg item too. While this absolutely nails the icon challenge in
it being clear this is Rihanna, it is still a tad simple and borders on lazy in some ways?
There isn't a special twist or brilliant insight that pushes this to the next level. This is
still one of the best icon looks.
the purple mew — Eunwoo: 90%
Style:9 • Motif:10 • Creativity:10 • Description:7
Comments: I was not familiar with Siouxie Sioux's appearance off the top of my head,
but this is a very good design for her. A lot of good details and things, I am particularly
impressed with how Mew managed to make Eunwoo's face look different in the two
entries this week. Very impressed with the creativity this week. I do not think the chosen
fishnet item is the best one for the look though, especially with the full composition and
how Eunwoo seems to just lose her feet. One of the fishnet options on the sight paired
with boots would have been nicer. But this is a good look!
Princess Warfare — Brandie: 82.5%
Style:9 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:9 • Description:7.5
Comments: I am in love with this look. My only real complaint is that I did not immediately
see Stevie Nicks. I see her a little more after reading the description, but not enough. Don't
really feel her either over all. But there are so many details that draw from her and her songs
that I respect, and I really appreciate that Princess opted for Stevie, who isn't an obvious
choice for Brandie. The cage stands out a little bit. This look is great, just not Stevie.
Kr-E — Cheska: 58.75%
Style:5 • Motif:7.5 • Creativity:5 • Description:6
Comments: This is purple and gold. Description is again underwhelming, I just need more
from these. I want to hear more about what was done, why items were chosen. I don't think
I like this look though. I get what she was going for, and I see Aretha...vaguely. The stars in
the hair are terrible. Striped legs are also bad, just the strangest of colors, and I don't get the
pop of teal on the hip. Just so wildly underwhelmed.
Detrimentum — Eryn: 82.5%
Style:8 • Motif:8 • Creativity:8 • Description:9
Comments: I did not know which icon this was supposed to be, though to be fair, my
only real picture in my head of Björk is her weird duck/goose dress thing, and other
equally weird or puzzling looks. But thankfully Detri included the reference pictures
and dang, she did an amazing job! The mask and lace collar blend together a bit
more than I would like, creating a kind of caged look that doesn't quite make sense.
The sleeves seem like they are just the wrong shade. I like the little details though,
and the added microphone sells the story.
BloodAngel95 — Raine: 73.75%
Style:6.5 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
Comments: Did not know this was supposed to be Shakira until I read the description.
That said, once I saw that, I could pick up on various details from music videos and looks
that Angel drew from. The description was good, provided a lot of the information I like to
see, but unfortunately the description also weakens the over all look. She says that Shakira
is known for her minimal make up looks, and then talked about all the make up she put on
Raine. Said Shakira is known for her crop tops but the top is not cropped enough to really
read as crop top. Maybe it is the added belts that lead to that, maybe it is the color. Either
way, it doesn't read crop top. More like a shirt just riding up a little. Talk about barefeet
but then went for a design where we can't see them.

FaithEmblem — Luz: 80%
S:7 • M:10 • C:8 • D:9 • Extra:-2
Comments: I appreciate this simple background (questionable colour), as it lets us really zero
in on the outfit itself, which is creative and cute. The colours are perfect to fit Luz's new hair colour,
and Faith managed to keep the wig interesting, by having it make a BIG statement. The description
would have been perfect, if a couple sentences had been knocked off. I DID remove a couple of
mark for adding freckles, and for colouring their text with a cycle colour. That's Myth's colour!!
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven: 75%
S:8 • M:9 • C:7 • D:6
Comments: Alright, so right off the bat, I must say that I love this bold, ultra-hued colour
scheme going on, and the themes incorporated into it. Raven looks like absolute royalty in purple
and gold, against the pops of teal. However, I can't say that I'm a fan of the hair choice here. Sorry,
but brown is boring ... What would have been more to theme, and more diverse is a black wig.
excites — Serena: 75%
S:8 • M:10 • C:5 • D:8 • Extra:-1
Comments: It's simply and elegantly cute, I must say. Firstly, the wig was a nice
choice — though not much different in colour, the style change was enough for me to give
full marks on motif. The dress is just darling, and fits with the background nicely, as well, the
accessories are a perfect compliment to the dress itself. However, as nice as it is, it doesn't
appear as though much was equipped, either ... except freckles, which I removed a mark for.
the purple mew — Eunwoo: 73%
S:6 • M:10 • C:8 • D:5
Comments: I'm not a fan of the wig, though I will give Mew full marks in theme, as it IS
very different from Eunwoo's natural hair. As well, the overall image doesn't really fit my
personal style, though I can appreciate the efforts that were made, and I can understand
where they were coming from when they designed it. Though what would have helped
immensely is a better description, going into the item choices and thought process behind it.
Princess Warfare — Brandie: 73%
S:7 • M:9 • C:5 • D:8
Comments: So, my initial thoughts on this are that ... it's nice, but I'm not WOWED by anything in
particular. I guess I'm just a little underwhelmed by the entry, when comparing it to everything else I've
seen Princess turn out this cycle. It seems safe, and therefore, a bit boring, unfortunately. Though I will
say that I appreciated her description, as it made things sound a bit more exciting than what I was seeing.
Kr-E — Cheska: 63%
S:6 • M:9 • C:5 • D:5
Comments: This is cute ... The theme is clear, and the challenge was met, but I don't have a lot of positives
besides that — And I'm shocked! Had there not been audition shenanigans in PC4, Kr-E would have made the
cut because their entries were beautiful. This particular entry seems to me as though it were phoned in. It's as
simple as can be, with a skirt that doesn't flatter the leg pose in any way. I dunno ... this just confuses me.
Detrimentum — Eryn: 85%
S:8 • M:10 • C:8 • D:8
Comments: I had high expectations from our PC4 alum, and I was not disappointed here. The 2-tone hair
was a stroke of brilliance, as it added a new dynamic, without removing any of Eryn's Asian characteristics.
And, giving her a punk edge to match the hair design was the right way to go. My only big qualm is with the
background, which Eryn kinda fades into ... Have I ever mentioned my hatred for backgrounds?
BloodAngel95 — Raine: 76%
S:7 • M:9 • C:7 • D:8
Comments: It appears as though Angel has improved greatly since PC4, and I
couldn't be happier about it. For the positives, I must say that I'm digging the style,
and hair choice that they decided to go with. But the overall appeal of the final product
is clearly greater than its parts. The glasses are a miss for me, the beanie (while
aesthetically pleasing) covers a lot of the hair, those blue [bags] it looks like she's
holding are a bit distracting, and finally, the description is good, but much too long.

Challenge #7: Night of 1000 Icons
FaithEmblem — Luz: 75%
S:8 • M:8 • C:7 • D:8 • Extra:-1
Comments: Overall, I am very pleased with both the aesthetic, and the depiction of Courtney Love. I think it was a
good choice for Faith. From the little I've seen out of this Designer, they seem to have a good grasp on what works for
their Model, which I'm always happy to see. I don't even mind the background in this one! However, those stiff legs just
aren't doing the portrait justice. Also, I removed a mark for using a cycle colour again. b***h stole MY colour this time!!
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven: 60%
S:3 • M:6 • C:6 • D:9
Comments: I'm just not loving this look at all ... Sorry, not sorry, babe. Honestly, it's just messy looking,
from the awkwardly layered items, to the total lack of a cohesive colour pallet. Like yeah, I know Cyndi's style
was a bit outrageous back in the 80's, but she still always managed to look charming — Raven looks like a
slob ... On the bright side, at least it's not too simple. And Serena's description was actually very nice.
excites — Serena: 76%
S:8 • M:10 • C:6 • D:9 • Extra:-2
Comments: It hurt me to have to remove marks from this submission, because it's one of only two entries
this challenge, where the Motif was clear at a glance. But even without reading the description, I picked up on the
hair and lip change immediately. Bummer ... Meh, oh well. This is seriously well done, to the point where Serena
and Rihanna could be twins. It was also explained very well. Creativity suffered a bit, though, as I feel it's pretty
plain. What I would have done is ditched the backdrop, and built something from layered background decor.
the purple mew — Eunwoo: 60%
S:7 • M:6 • C:5 • D:6
Comments: Quite frankly, I don't mind this on a stylistic level. The framing of the image has
good bones. But ... it's elementary. I feel as though Mew did steps 1 through 5, and then bypassed
steps 6 through 10. The idea is there, it just leaves a lot to be desired. As for Eunwoo's portrayal of
Siouxsie Sioux, it's not exactly bad — I just feel like it's somewhat on the safe side. As for the
description, it was also underwhelming, as we didn't really get any insight into their thought process.
Princess Warfare — Brandie: 85%
S:8 • M:9 • C:8 • D:9
Comments: This fits into my aesthetic perfectly, and I love that Princess chose Stevie Nicks for this look.
While not a complete ringer for the real deal, you can still pick out the similarities. I love how Princess used the
various shades of black to separate Brandie from the background, and I'm totally digging the hat. I might have
liked to see different arms, and touches of silver/white represented in the bottom half of the image a bit more.
Kr-E — Cheska: 65%
S:7 • M:8 • C:6 • D:5
Comments: Alright, so it's clear that Kr-E is missing a huge opportunity to boost their scores with easy description
points. It's evident they know how to write well, they're just skimping us on any personal anecdotes. Like seriously, Aretha
was pivotal in POC & women's rights back in the day, and she was known for that just as much as she was known for
being a singer, but that wasn't even touched on, let alone elaborated. Kr-E isn't letting me get to know them! Anyway,
regarding the outfit, it's cute, and I can see some likeness happening, though this also comes across as a bit simplistic.
More could have been done with the background to tie in the golds, rather than using that distracting magenta one.
Detrimentum — Eryn: 76%
S:7 • M:10 • C:7 • D:7
Comments: Wow!! Now THIS is a crystal clear likeness, people! And it's so weird that even without having ever seen the
reference photos before, when I looked at Eryn's outfit, I immediately got Bjork vibes. I mean, unfortunately it's not really my style,
but I can appreciate the effort put into the outfit. I do wish that Detri had shared a bit more of their feelings in the description though.
BloodAngel95 — Raine: 65%
S:6 • M:5 • C:7 • D:8
Comments: Ugh. I let this slide in Angel's other entry, but I can't do it twice — they need to be told in the feedback, that
uploading variations of a look is prohibited. It's not fair to show us alternatives, that could subconsciously influence our original
opinions on the submitted design (which both of their entries did for me). Nobody gets a mulligan. At any rate, the style isn't so bad
(apart from that nasty red skirt), and the description is okay (though lacking sentiment). Where it falls short is in the resemblance
to Shakira. Whether factoring in Raine's base traits or not, I'm not getting a strong connection to the Latina Pop Princess.

Challenge #6: Model Makeover
Designers, we have some terrible news! Your models are
all having a bad hair day, and they have a photoshoot in five minutes! What's
a girl to do? Hide the bad hair beneath a wig of course! This challenge you
are allowed to switch out your model's hair for any hair of your choosing.
Only the hair. But remember, this shouldn't look like a dollar wig fresh out the
bag. Every model should be able to convince us that "tHiS iS mUh ReAyL hAiYR"
FaithEmblem — Luz = 85% (Total Score: 34)
Style:9 • Creativity:7 • Motif:9 • Description:9
Comments: First thing that comes to mind seeing Faith's entry is
fall cottagecore. Luz looks adorable. Having Faith exhibiting her style
in this outfit just adds so much to the look. I enjoy this entry, the
more I look at it. That color scheme with that hair is just stunning to
look at. That with the green background is the cherry on top. This
is on the simpler side, in terms of concept, but this is so well-done
and executed flawlessly. Simple but effective, one might say. This
entry just gave me joy.
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven = 70% (Total Score: 28 pts.)
Style:7 • Creativity:7 • Motif:7.5 • Description:6.5
Comments: I'm not normally one to question length and contents
of a description, but I wish there was more to the story of how the wig
came to be. The story felt too short for me. That aside, I love this almost
Middle Eastern garb Raven is on. The color scheme of the outfit looks
so good on Raven's skin. However, that hair looks suspicious. Reason
being that Raven's forehead doesn't go that high, but the hair color looks
gorgeous. I love that this entry's giving me a scene in a Bollywood movie.
It's not blowing my mind per se, but it's a solid entry.
excites — Serena = 82.5% (Total Score: 33)
Style:8 • Creativity:7 • Motif:10 • Description:8
Comments: This hair exudes a youthfulness to Serena that I
didn't think she had. Knowing excites' model, Serena looks mature,
but with this outfit, the colors, and the hair, Serena looks absolutely
soft and young. Conceptually, not the most exciting, but given the
challenge, I absolutely can't clock that that's a wig. Serena looks
so adorable, I'm at awe. Knowing this type of hair is excites' go-to
just adds that extra personal touch that I enjoy seeing in entries.
the purple mew — Eunwoo = 62.5% (Total Score: 25)
Style:6.5 • Creativity:6.5 • Motif:6 • Description:6
Comments: This take is leading a tad astray towards the
challenge description, personally. The goal was to have hair that
looked natural on your model. While I do enjoy the chosen hair on
Eunwoo, I can indeed tell it's not Eunwoo's real hair. That aside, I
like this Moon goddess look Eunwoo is on. It's not the most intricate
design we've seen out of the bunch, but it's not bad by any means.
I would want to know more as to why mew went with this concept,
though.
Princess Warfare — Brandie = 82.5% (Total Score: 33)
Style:8 • Creativity:7 • Motif:9 • Description:9
Comments: So many styling choices Princess made, and they
paid off. That hair color looks so stunning with that color scheme,
and the hairstyle itself adds to that flower fairy vibe that I'm getting
with this entry. This type of aesthetic is so up my alley, and I'm in love!
I like the consistency of the flowers around the entry and the touches
of green with the red is so stunning. Love the thought process behind
it too. Granted, in terms of concept, it's nothing new that we've seen,
but it is definitely an ethereal look that I enjoy and see myself making.
Obsessed.
Kr-E — Cheska = 57.5% (Total Score: 23)
Style:5 • Creativity:7 • Motif:7 • Description:4
Comments: Oh my... This is the third time I'll be giving critiques
on the description. This is too short. Not enough basis to cover the
"hows" and "whys". Going for elegant in that little of clothing and that
see-through fabric showing off what should be covered ain't it for me.
I only like this outfit on Cheska from the waist up. The hair horns are
suspicious to be Cheska's "real hair". Remove the horns, and I'd like
the hair better on her I do like that the legpose works well, given that
Cheska's on a chair. and having her read a book in a library setting
makes sense, but I wanna know the story behind this look, and
the process behind it.
Detrimentum — Eryn = 78.75% (Total Score: 31.5)
Style:8.5 • Creativity:8 • Motif:8 • Description:7
Comments: Eryn in this cool, casual and chic biker outfit is such
a departure from what the other designers have given us this challenge.
This is simple, yet effective. I am into this entry. Though, I do wish there
was more going on in the background to add a pop of life to the entry.
I get that it's in a nighttime setting, but I'd imagine Eryn be in a more
crowded spot in the night waiting for someone.
BloodAngel95 — Raine = 72.5% (Total Score: 29)
Style:6 • Creativity:7 • Motif:8 • Description:8
Comments: Description-wise, it needs a bit of editing to
summarize Angel's thoughts better, but this is far better than
the other descriptions we've read. Style-wise, love that hair on
Raine. Loving the casual approach to this challenge, but seeing
the version without the glasses, I prefer the look without the glasses.
It doesn't make sense with the nighttime background. And I don't see
a rooftop setting. The beams look like bridge railings, and the leaves
don't contribute much to the rooftop illusion. I see the vision, so-so
execution.

Challenge #7: Night of 1000 Icons
Designers, we thought it was time to pay tribute to those
that entertain us. We want to see your models dressed up like their favorite
pop icon! Now we know that pop icon is a broad definition, so we would like
you to pick a pop icon from this list. This should be fun! Can't wait to see all
these stars on the same red carpet.
FaithEmblem — Luz = 80% (Total Score: 32)
Style:8 • Creativity:8 • Motif:8 • Description:8
Comments: I like the video recording frame that Faith used to
make it seem like someone was recording Luz. That's cute. I like
the icon that Faith chose for Luz. From what I can see, Faith
channeled Courtney Love well. The styling choices, I adore. Seeing
the back of the outfit makes me appreciate this entry's details more,
and the heart as a finishing touch is lovely. Not the most exciting entry
we've seen in this challenge, but given the chosen icon, I can't fault
Faith for it. All in all, this is a solid week for Faith.
Serena-of-Limonium — Raven = 82.5% (Total Score: 33)
Style:7.5 • Creativity:8.5 • Motif:9 • Description:8
Comments: Serena definitely captured Cyndi Lauper to a T. Love
that every single detail signifies her chosen icon. And I admire Serena's
layering. I get what she was going for with the outfit, and I love how
many layers of skirts I see. It's giving peak 1980's fashion, and I live.
It is so chaotic in the best way possible. Raven is showing us that girls
just wanna have fun. Though, Serena can lose the fireworks. I can
still get Cyndi without it. Overall, I enjoyed this entry.
excites — Serena = 91.25% (Total Score: 36.5)
Style:8.5 • Creativity:9 • Motif:10 • Description:9
Comments: Dare I say this is one of the more successful
entries out of the bunch in this challenge. I didn't even need to look at
the description, the look Serena is on just screams Rihanna down to
the last detail. It also helped excites that she chose a more well-known
icon, so I got who they were emulating with their entry. This is a rare
moment where I can't find a fault in an entry. If we go through rules,
excites is treading that silver lining in the make-up mod rule. It does
still read Serena, even under all the mods used to achieve the Rihanna
illusion, but only by a smidge.
the purple mew — Eunwoo = 65% (Total Score: 26)
Style:6.5 • Creativity:6 • Motif:7 • Description:6.5
Comments: From what I can see, Siouxsie Six is a leader of a
rock band. Comparing their looks to what mew brought, they got her
down well. It reads well as Siouxsie. But, similar notes to her hair
look, this isn't the most extravagant look out of the bunch, which does
lean towards being dull, having it next to the other designers coming
in with fashion references of their chosen icons. I'm sure Siouxsie Sioux
has worn more fashion-forward outfits in her career, and I wished mew
chose to reference her looks as opposed to just embody Siouxsie.
But that's not to say mew didn't hit her goal, moreso wishing mew
aimed higher.
Princess Warfare — Brandie = 80% (Total Score: 32)
Style:8 • Creativity:8 • Motif:8 • Description:8
Comments: I love Princess's music video reference. I didn't
think of having Brandie as Stevie Nicks, but Lighthouse has such
a significant message that I see why Princess chose Stevie as her icon.
As she should. Style-wise, gorgeous. Giving me goth meets steampunk.
I see the intent of the hat and the illusion the entire entry is meant to give.
Very clever. However, I do wish the outfit wasn't blending in with the
background that much, just so I could appreciate the outfit more. But
seeing the reference, I can't really fault Princess for having to create
a black outfit on a dark setting.
Kr-E — Cheska = 72.5% (Total Score: 29)
Style:8 • Creativity:9 • Motif:8 • Description:4
Comments: The Queen of Soul, modernized. The outfit itself isn't
something that we've seen Aretha wear before, but I still get Aretha from
it. I can definitely sense that Kr-E was super excited to do Cheska
as Aretha Franklin, but I just wish the description was longer to give
justice to how successful Kr-E was in modernizing Aretha. I feel the
essence, the outfit is gorgeous, and it reads Aretha Frankin, but
please give just as much time on your description the same way
you did with your outfit.
Detrimentum — Eryn = 87.5% (Total Score: 35)
Style:10 • Creativity:10 • Motif:10 • Description:5
Comments: This is the second time I feel the need to give
feedback to descriptions, but this is one case where Detri's missed
to give us the "why". Aside from the fact that Björk is an icon, and she
has been in so many iconic looks, I'm curious to know what made Detri
decide to honor her? That aside, this recreation is pure perfection.
Detri captured Björk the house down boots. I legitimately cannot find
any faults in the outfit. Just stunningly gorgeous. Such an amazing
recreation from Detri.
BloodAngel95 — Raine = 83.75% (Total Score: 33.5)
Style:7.5 • Creativity:9 • Motif:8 • Description:0+8
Comments: From the head down, I see Shakira 100%. The
references shown read well in the outfit. The background
adds to the Shakira fantasy Raine is giving. Angel did her research,
and it shows. From the head up, it's not giving. Beautiful makeup,
but it's not screaming Shakira. I don't remember her donning that
type of makeup before with that much eyeliner (correct me if I'm wrong).
Makeup aside, this is a solid homage to Shakira.

Challenge 6 ✧ Model Makeover
Designers, we have some terrible news! Your models are
all having a bad hair day, and they have a photoshoot in five minutes! What's

are allowed to switch out your model's hair for any hair of your choosing.
Only the hair. But remember, this shouldn't look like a dollar wig fresh out the
bag. Every model should be able to convince us that "tHiS iS mUh ReAyL hAiYR".
FaithEmblem ✧ Luz ✧ 61.25%
Style:6 • Motif:6.5 • Creativity:7 • Description:5
Comments: I'm not sold on the hair choice. I don't really get Luz vibes from it at all, and I'm seeing nothing in the description to back up its use. I do appreciate the modifications made to the hair though, rather than just using a singular item. The colors are...okay, but the feel a little drab and I would have really liked something brighter to break up the monotony of it. I would also have liked to see a more developed background.
Serena-of-Limonium ✧ Raven ✧ 45%
Style:4 • Motif:6 • Creativity:7 • Description:1
Comments: Not really a fan of the color scheme used here, especially with how much Raven blends into the background. The description is sorely lacking. I didn't get a single "how" or "why" out of it. I do like the theme idea, but the execution reads a little too messy for me. I'm also not sold on the hair choice, especially with how large it makes Raven's forehead look.
excites ✧ Serena ✧ 83.75%
Style:8 • Motif:8.5 • Creativity:8 • Description:9
Comments: This is an absolutely stunning look! It's also nice to see some reasoning given for the hair choice. I like the contrast of the pastels with Serena's dark skin and hair. The only thing that I'm not vibing with in this look, is the sitting pose paired with a skirt that doesn't fold with her posture.
the purple mew ✧ Eunwoo ✧ 45%
Style:2 • Motif:5 • Creativity:5 • Description:6
Comments: Love the moon princess idea, but I really wish the look was more traditional as I don't think this more creative approach to the outfit really reads moon princess, especially with the glasses--though I do think the idea of a moon princess having glasses is cute. I like the choice of color, but the balance of colors overall feels way too blocky and not spread out enough. Eunwoo's hair also feels really jarring, though I love the move to give her really long hair. Lastly, I would have liked to see a more intricate background, which might have helped the hair from standing out so much.
Princess Warfare ✧ Brandie ✧ 85%
Style:8.5 • Motif:9 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:9
Comments: This is stunning! The colors work great together and although the description talks about wanting Brandie to look completely different with the hair choice, what was chosen still feels very Brandie to me, which I love. I do wish there had been less of a focus on making this based off the one color scheme and I'm not a fan of the chosen leg mod.
Kr-E ✧ Cheska ✧ 56.25%
Style:6.5 • Motif:6.5/color] • Creativity:6.5 • Description:3
Comments: I'm not sold on the hair choice, though I do want to mention that I love the illusion of horns the buns give with the wings covering them. It looks super cute! I love that blue with Cheska's hair and skin but there's too much of it that it becomes a little overwhelming to look at. Also, like I said to excites, the sitting leg pose with a skirt that doesn't conform to her posture bothers me. Lastly, I wish she hadn't been dressed so revealing because I feel it takes away from the idea of it being her mind that's sexy.
Detrimentum ✧ Eryn ✧ 86.25%
Style:8.5 • Motif:10 • Creativity:8 • Description:8
Comments: THIS is what I've been looking for in this theme. The hair chosen here SCREAMS Eryn and I love it! Her outfit is cute but I wish it were easier to see. That's really my only criticism.
BloodAngel95 ✧ Raine ✧ 73.75%
Style:7.5 • Motif:5 • Creativity:7 • Description:10
Comments: I think this is a really cute look with a great description. I like the blues and blacks and the contrast of the leaves. I am, however, not sold on the hair for Raine. I also think this would have looked a little better without the headphones.

FaithEmblem ✧ Luz ✧ 85%
Style:7 • Motif:9 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: I really like this look. It's simple but effective and I love a good black and red color scheme. The idea to add the heart was cute!
Serena-of-Limonium ✧ Raven ✧ 72.5%
Style:4 • Motif:7 • Creativity:8 • Description:10
Comments: I wish there had been more cohesiveness with the outfit, more red at the bottom, some purple at the top, get rid of the headband because it doesn't fit the dress style or colors at all. The fireworks are also killing it for me. Maybe on a different background? But mostly it's t he headband.
excites ✧ Serena ✧ 82.5%
Style:7.5 • Motif:10 • Creativity:7.5 • Description:8
Comments: This really gives off Rihanna vibes. I think excites did a great job replicating the chosen music video. I do wish, however, that there was a little more something to it but it does follow the refs really well, so...
the purple mew ✧ Eunwoo ✧ 55%
Style:5.5 • Motif:5.5 • Creativity:4 • Description:7
Comments: I love this style on Eunwoo! I do wish mew had fully committed to the black and white look because the color on the bike is distracting. I also think black fishnets might have been better. This is also a really simple look that I would have liked to see spruced up a little more, background included.
Princess Warfare ✧ Brandie ✧ 83.75%
Style:7 • Motif:10 • Creativity:9 • Description:7.5
Comments: I really love this look and wish there was something to break up the black of the background so I could see it more clearly. I think maybe if Princess had chosen a different color for the pile of bones, it would have helped. Overall, though, I'm really vibing with this.
Kr-E ✧ Cheska ✧ 65%
Style:6 • Motif:8 • Creativity:7 • Description:5
Comments: I think the yellow looks absolutely gorgeous on Cheska, especially with the contest of the purple background! I wish her legs were bare, however, to help balance out her head and hair. I also don't really like the blue shorts, they stand out a little too much in my opinion. Lastly, the headpiece layers strarngely with her hair and I think it would have been better left off.
Detrimentum ✧ Eryn ✧ 85%
Style:7 • Motif:10 • Creativity:8.5 • Description:8.5
Comments: I'm really digging this look, except for how there's nothing to balance out the white around her head area. But on the other hand that's what the refs look like so I don't know if I should really complain about that... I really like the use of the sparkles for the pearls, very clever. I do wish there had been more done with the background, however, as it feels very lackluster. Also, I really hate the shoes.
BloodAngel95 ✧ Raine ✧ 87.5%
Style:9 • Motif:8 • Creativity:9 • Description:9
Comments: Raine looks absolutely stunning here! These colors are all gorgeous together and the background really helps bring it together. I'm glad Angel chose a red skirt, rather than going with black, because it really brings the look together.

bag. Every model should be able to convince us that “tHiS iS mUh ReAyL hAiYR”

Comments: I love the overall theme and execution of this!!
Though not the most unique idea, I can't help but adore flower themes!
The pose, chosen hair, atmosphere, and colors all play together extremely
well, it's genuinely a very nice entry! : D The only negatives I have, is that
I wish Princess would have talked a bit more about the other items in the
description, for example the dress.

Challenge #7: Night of 1000 Icons (Unfinished WIP bc Gaia broke)
Designers, we thought it was time to pay tribute to those
that entertain us. We want to see your models dressed up like their favorite
pop icon! Now we know that pop icon is a broad definition, so we would like
you to pick a pop icon from this list. This should be fun! Can't wait to see all
these stars on the same red carpet.
