![]() Seeking a vibe that’s both “futuristic and cozy,” Rafael designs his concept store with chrome and mirrors initially, Gunn is concerned that Rafael’s store will look “very bare,” and tells Rafael he either needs to have more in the collection, or re-conceive the space. For Klum, the risk pays off - Yannik’s store is Klum’s favorite of the bunch, and says that she feels like “Yannik is right now.” Jeremy Scott and Nicole Richie love his choice to mix in some color, but Beauchamp worries that only a few of his pieces are truly wearable. It’s a bold move, but one fitting of a designer with an equally bold aesthetic. When Gunn tells the contestants that they can include up to three pieces from their finale collections in their concept stores, Yannik decides against it - he wants to tease the judges. Worried that his all-white designs will alienate buyers, he decides to include pops of blue and green in his accessible clothing collections. Like his mannequins, Yannik’s concept store is all white, with metallic crack detailing across the walls and floor. In designing his concept store, the minimalistic, futuristic Yannik favors “imperfect, broken, but very well-designed stuff.” He imagines mannequins that are aged and cracked to match his favored aesthetic. Plus, Christine Beauchamp, the SVP of Consumer Categories at Amazon, will join the judges in these final two challenges. In addition, they are to create a minimum of four new accessible looks for their stores, but the assignment doesn’t stop there: They’re also tasked with designing a 10-look finale collection representative of their brands - and they only have four weeks to design and execute both their concept stores (which will all be in the same warehouse space) and collection. Making The Cut’s own design team will work with the contestants to bring their ideas to life. The energy is palpable as Georgia, Yannik, Jeanette, and Rafael meet with Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum to learn about their penultimate challenge: Designing their very own concept store.
