Because that was amazing.
The gorgeous coats and winter wonderland on the runway were just a nice side perk.

And to sketch, theyre going to the coldest place in Manhattan.
They show up at Minus5 Ice Bar, and Margarita is legitimately worried she will freeze to death.
Anyway, they head back to Mood and shop for fabrics.

Margarita buys rabbit hides because she wants to create a luxurious look.

Back in the workroom … nothing really happens on day 1.
He tells Kenya that she should stop overthinking and give the judges something that will take the prize.
Yep, Margarita is off on a bad foot.

She introduces Katie Holmes as the guest judge.
Zac says he loves how Brandon played with layering and dimension.
Heidi says the look is impactful but stops short of calling it great from head to toe.

(She dings him for using open-toe heels for a winter challenge.)
Margarita says she wanted to create surprise with her fur dress and wrap coat.
Heidi says a full-on fur dress could have gone wrong, but this works.

She thinks it looks good on Liris and the coat is beautiful, too.
Nina loves the wrap coat and the dress reveal.
Ayana says the fur at Minus5 made her think of rebel, and she thought outlaw.
However, Heidi isnt a fan of the jumper underneath.
Its costume-y and childish, she says.
Zac says its overstyled and theme-y but he does think there is a freshness to it.
Katie likes that the coat is a two-in-one with the ability to make it a shorter coat.
Kenya stuck to her guns with this challenge: presenting a classic, well-tailored look.
But was it a prize look like Tim asked for?
Zac likes that Kenyas coat has attitude but says that she needed to go more high fashion.
He says each piece is great, but all three together dont work.
She thinks its all nice, but shes not into it as a total look.
Ninaalsoagrees, saying that the coat is very downtown while the pants and blouse are more uptown.
Nina says he did a great job, that it is modern and sculptural.
Heidi says its heaven from head to toe.
Zac says its the chicest snow woman hes ever seen, and Katie says each piece is perfect.
