Ep 8. Race To The Finale

In Project Runway Junior season 2 episode 8 titled "Race To The Finale," the young designers are tasked with creating an eight-piece collection that showcases their design aesthetic and tells a story. The designers are given a $500 budget and four days to create their collections.

Creative director Tim Gunn mentors the designers throughout the process, providing guidance and feedback as they work through their designs. The judges for this episode include designer Rebecca Minkoff and fashion journalist Elaine Welteroth.

As the designers work on their collections, they face challenges and setbacks, including fabric shortages and design changes. One designer struggles with time management, while another has difficulty translating their ideas into a cohesive collection.

The judges provide feedback on the designer's work, with some praising their creativity and execution, while others express concerns about their designs. Ultimately, the designers must present their collections on the runway in front of a live audience.

The episode culminates in an emotional runway show, as the young designers showcase their collections for the judges. The judges deliberate on the designers' work and make their final decisions on who will move on to the finale and who will be eliminated.

As the competition heats up, tensions rise, and the designers must push themselves to create the best work of their lives. Only a few will make it to the finale, but all will leave with a greater sense of their creative potential and a deeper understanding of the fashion industry.
