Episode 5, Designer Emilio Sosa
Top 3 Design
"I like the fact that he had his scissors in his pocket and was quite willing to chop [the dress straps] off. Honestly, when you're doing a cover, you need a designer who'll do that." -Joanna Coles, referring to Sosa's tailoring of the dress during judging.
"Once you got rid of those silly ties on the shoulder, I think cleavage, color, a nice line — all of those things were great." –Michael Kors

"The color of this dress is the color of hospital food." –Joanna Coles
