Ep 2. Clothes Off Your Back

In Project Runway season 2 episode 2, titled "Clothes Off Your Back," the stakes are higher as the remaining designers face a new challenge. The episode begins with the designers receiving a surprise visit from Tim Gunn, who informs them that they will be creating resort wear looks inspired by the clothes off their own backs. Each designer is asked to choose one of their own outfits to deconstruct and reconstruct into a completely new look.

The designers are given a $150 budget and two days to complete their looks. As soon as the challenge is announced, the designers rush to grab their favorite pieces from their closets, hoping to create something fresh and exciting.

Throughout the episode, tensions rise as some of the designers struggle to transform their existing clothing items into something new and innovative. Some designers focus on creating cohesive looks, while others put all their energy into creating a single standout piece.

One of the standout moments of the episode is when designer Andrae creates a stunning halter top and flowing skirt from a single pair of pants. The transformation is so impressive that Tim Gunn tells Andrae he's "never seen anything like it before."

As the clock ticks down, the designers rush to finish their looks, with some struggling to complete their garments on time. With only moments to spare before the runway show, the designers anxiously wait for the judges' critiques.

During the runway show, the designers showcase their resort wear looks for the judges, including fashion icons Heidi Klum, Michael Kors, and guest judge Diane von Furstenberg. Some designers receive high praise for their innovative designs, while others are criticized for not being cohesive or taking enough risks.

In the end, one designer is crowned the winner of the challenge, while another is sent home. The episode ends with the remaining designers still facing many challenges as they continue to compete for the title of Project Runway champion.

Overall, "Clothes Off Your Back" is a thrilling episode that showcases the creativity and innovation of the Project Runway designers. With unexpected challenges and high stakes, the episode offers plenty of excitement and drama for viewers to enjoy.
