As part of this week's challenge, the designers went on a field trip to the New York Botanical Garden to find inspiration for an evening gown. For this elegant episode, Marchesa designer Georgina Chapman was the perfect choice for the guest judge, as her line embodies pretty eveningwear that offers delicacy and detail.

As the models started heading down to the salon, I instantly fell in love with Kenley's fuchsia, black, and purple snake print dress for model Topacio! The sleeveless dress had a mock turtleneck and was very form-fitting. My favorite part of the dress was the explosion of petals at the hem. Her silhouette reminded me of a mermaid. To make the dress modern and fashion-forward, Kenley cinched Topacio's waist with a 1" black leather belt. Kenley came to us confident in her design, describing her dress as "really high fashion, very edge-y." To show off the unique neckline, we put Topacio's hair in a glamorous up-do.
