Posted by: Danielle Hines-Graham at September 18, 2008 9:49 AM

All right everyone, gather round. I'd like to say that I have viewed Kenley's work, and it's the same shtick she's been giving us every week. I have tried over and over again to give her advice and she totally ignores me. When she makes it to Bryant Park as all of you will, well except Joe here because his work is so boring I could die, and I take over because Ms. Lopez came up with some lame excuse of a sore foot, I will pay her back as guest judge. Make that work Kenley.

Alright, the outfits you are making right now are going to be switched with the person working immediately to the table next to you. Then, you're going to rework the garment to meet your style. But then, you're going to need to make a small version to put on a teddy bear and incorporate that into the runway while your model rides a donkey. I know this is a curve ball, but I have faith in all of you. Make it work!
