Congratulations Nick!

Quickie recap: The designers are told that they'll be designing a look for a global star and fashion icon, only to find out that their client is Barbie. The stakes are raised when they're told that the winning look will be used for a limited edition My Scene Barbie.

You can read Tim's take on this episode here and listen to his podcast here.

Girl, that's not just fierce, that is SUPAFIERCE!

Who didn't think this challenge was right up Nick's alley? He's got the Barbiest aesthetic out of anyone there and exactly the right sense of drama and color she needs. This dress was PERFECT.

This one's all about the fabric choices. He made exactly the right choice for the "client" and exactly the right choice for the dress. He knew this would look great in miniature, sitting on a shelf and he was right.

We say that not to take away from the design, which was also perfect. Great proportions and almost flawless execution. Flowy, sassy but not too sexy, girly and above all, fun. This isn't really meant to be a real world dress. It's every inch a fashion doll's dress.

And there isn't a doubt in our minds that he played with a lot of Barbies as a kid (if not as an adult) because only a serious Barbie lover would think of adding the kinds of accessories that every little girl goes apeshit over, like the ribbon shoes...

and the "Rhoda" scarf. We could not agree more with this win. Nick darling? FIERCE!
