Design genius

Call the fashion doctors, it's an emergency. These new designers are about to partake in an exhilarating challenge to make an accessory made from a first aid kit, an undergarment made from IV bags and a wardrobe apparel piece made from surgical gloves. It's going to be a tough start for the contestants especially when a barn owl is thrown in as the day's inspiration. Who will be able to survive and fly away with colors?

Inspired by the iconic grandfather clock, designers can be as outlandish and abstract as they'd like with their creations. Challenges include making an accessory from wood cut offs and shavings, an undergarment from a blow up beach ball and finally a garment from banana and nipa leaves. This day at the beach is going to be make or break for these designer hopefuls.

Life's no party for the Designers. Taking inspiration from a classical guitar, which must be used as inspiration throughout the competition, the designers create an accessories from hard candy, an undergarment from balloons and to top it all off, a wardrobe piece made from mini birthday cake candles.

Not just another day at the office. Stripped of their regularly supplied fabrics, the designers will have nowhere to hide. First up, an accessory made from wires and cables, an undergarment made from various rolls of tape and a wardrobe piece created with desktop calendars. A Mexican fighting fish is on hand to provide some much needed inspiration.

If you can't stand the heat then get out of the kitchen. Designers are pushed to their creative limits as tempers flare throughout the challenges. Using plastic cutlery to create an accessory, cupcake patties for an undergarment, and a finger cutting steel wool for the wardrobe piece. The inspiration? A crossbow of course. Only two will survive and enter the final round to compete for the title of Design Genius.

Junkyard fashion is anything but trashy. In this series finale, the designers will be creating high fashion garments using items found in a landfill. The designers will need to be ingenious and maintain their composure to get through these challenges. An accessory will be made from used bicycles (of which they must take apart themselves), an undergarment using discarded broken chairs and a wardrobe apparel piece using old umbrellas. But that's not all as Indashio injects a bit of drama and chaos by introducing a few of his own surprises along the way.
