The winning look will be recreated by Simplicity as a pattern.
Team 1960s talk about a lot of different things, and theyre a bit all over the place.

Theres a lot of talking, but the only thing they all really agree on is no prints.
Theres a bit of a twist for fabric this challenge.
Zachary and Jaxson are very careful about grabbing the right colors while FaceTiming with their teammates.
Peytie and Samantha, instead, go rogue.
Life lesson for this team: Communication is key.
1940s Team is not having those same issues.
Theyre just breezing through their looks and LOLing that the other team is struggling.
If they mess up, that means we win!
He wants everything to be elevated because the not-Twiggy-looking designs are making him sleepy.
Tims ambivalent about Bridgets red dress, but she isnt deterred.
Life lesson for Team 1940s: Climb over your competitors to get to the top.
Even on an adult season that would be a challenge for most.
It clearly wasnt the best of the two collections, but it was much better than I was expecting.
Hannah is a fan of the black and blue color palette (who isnt?
), but she didnt think Jaxsons top was constructed well.
Christian praises the fit of Zachs pants, but the judges really only have eyes for Bridgets gown.
The only look the judges like is Mayas dress, which uses a fun color and has nice detailing.
(I still cant get over the fact this girl is 13!)
The judges have a hard choice ahead of them.
Winner:Bridget
Out:No one!
Hannah tells Samantha shes in.
And then she tells Matt hes also in.
However, that means well have adoubleelimination down the road.
But dont count out #MattTheCat just yet hes got nine lives in this competition, you know.
