Y'all gonna need it.

173
00:05:41,299 --> 00:05:42,967
<i>My advice that I have</i>
<i>for the designers</i>

174
00:05:43,051 --> 00:05:44,135
<i>is just to turn that shit up.</i>

175
00:05:44,218 --> 00:05:45,845
<i>This is y'all last time</i>

176
00:05:45,928 --> 00:05:47,764
<i>to show the cosigners</i>
<i>what you can do.</i>

177
00:05:47,847 --> 00:05:52,810
So you better bring it,
and you cannot fuck up.

178
00:05:52,894 --> 00:05:54,771
<i>- All the looks that we've</i>
<i>been putting together</i>

179
00:05:54,854 --> 00:05:57,231
<i>this season come down</i>
<i>to one lookbook.</i>

180
00:05:57,315 --> 00:05:58,941
And how the collection
comes together,

181
00:05:59,025 --> 00:06:00,860
and how everything
is pieced up,

182
00:06:00,943 --> 00:06:03,321
<i>and how it's walked,</i>
<i>how it's styled, everything,</i>

183
00:06:03,404 --> 00:06:05,490
<i>everything has</i>
<i>to come together like butter</i>

184
00:06:05,573 --> 00:06:07,658
<i>or it's all for naught.</i>

185
00:06:07,742 --> 00:06:09,452
- All right, designers.
Well, the cosigners pulled up

186
00:06:09,535 --> 00:06:12,413
today because they're here
to review your lookbooks.

187
00:06:12,497 --> 00:06:14,874
They wanted to talk
to you guys individually

188
00:06:14,957 --> 00:06:16,751
about the future of your brand,

189
00:06:16,834 --> 00:06:18,961
and I will check in
with you guys later, okay?

190
00:06:19,045 --> 00:06:20,963
- All right.
- All right, y'all.

191
00:06:21,047 --> 00:06:22,507
- Mr. Khanh.

192
00:06:22,590 --> 00:06:24,258
- I'm putting together
my lookbook.

193
00:06:24,342 --> 00:06:25,843
This is the storyboard.

194
00:06:25,927 --> 00:06:28,888
- The lookbook
is the most important thing

195
00:06:28,971 --> 00:06:29,889
to a designer.

196
00:06:29,972 --> 00:06:31,224
It's your story,

197
00:06:31,307 --> 00:06:33,351
<i>and it gives you a road map</i>

198
00:06:33,434 --> 00:06:38,523
<i>for what people plan to see</i>
<i>in your collection.</i>

199
00:06:38,606 --> 00:06:40,817
- Being a immigrant,
I really relate a lot,

200
00:06:40,900 --> 00:06:42,652
living in a blue-collar state,

201
00:06:42,735 --> 00:06:45,404
so a lot of workwear
is definitely involved

202
00:06:45,488 --> 00:06:46,864
into my whole collection.

203
00:06:46,948 --> 00:06:49,659
I started off identifying
where I'm from

204
00:06:49,742 --> 00:06:52,954
and this is the ending
of it all,

205
00:06:53,037 --> 00:06:55,498
and it's just showing
these outfits

206
00:06:55,581 --> 00:06:57,250
that's not saying Ohio.

207
00:06:57,333 --> 00:06:59,293
This is who I really am, N.G.O.

208
00:06:59,377 --> 00:07:00,628
This is me as a designer.

209
00:07:00,711 --> 00:07:02,588
- It's a good development
of your work,

210
00:07:02,672 --> 00:07:06,968
but you really need
to, like, really amp it up.

211
00:07:07,051 --> 00:07:09,220
What is that, like, last...
- Wow.

212
00:07:09,303 --> 00:07:11,472
- Bit that's gonna take me over
the finish line?

213
00:07:11,556 --> 00:07:12,849
- Okay. Understood.
- Right.

214
00:07:12,932 --> 00:07:14,267
It should be--the last picture
should be

215
00:07:14,350 --> 00:07:15,518
how they remember you, my boy.

216
00:07:15,601 --> 00:07:17,186
- I wanted to end it off
with this.

217
00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:18,688
I'm really proud of the look.
- That's his first line.

218
00:07:18,771 --> 00:07:20,022
- You know what I mean?
- This is fire.

219
00:07:20,106 --> 00:07:21,357
And it's me, so why not?
[laughter]

220
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:22,692
- Exactly.
- Gave you some game now.

221
00:07:22,775 --> 00:07:24,026
- Thank you.
I always take care

222
00:07:24,110 --> 00:07:25,027
of your game y'all give me,

223
00:07:25,111 --> 00:07:26,821
so everything is noted.

224
00:07:26,904 --> 00:07:28,531
- Is this, like,
from the top to the bottom?

225
00:07:28,614 --> 00:07:29,824
I like this one.
- This is top to bottom.

226
00:07:29,907 --> 00:07:30,908
This is the color story

227
00:07:30,992 --> 00:07:32,118
from left to right.

228
00:07:32,201 --> 00:07:34,036
- I see so much growth.

229
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:35,746
And I see the progression...
- So much.

230
00:07:35,830 --> 00:07:38,291
- But when I look
at the individual pictures,

231
00:07:38,374 --> 00:07:40,710
there's so much noise
in the background

232
00:07:40,793 --> 00:07:42,753
that it's hard to see.
- That it's confusing you.

233
00:07:42,837 --> 00:07:44,589
- Basically, everything
that we've been telling you

234
00:07:44,672 --> 00:07:46,632
to do with your clothing...
- Get that with the images.

235
00:07:46,716 --> 00:07:50,094
- You need to do that here,
yeah.

236
00:07:50,178 --> 00:07:51,804
Hey, Knoxx.
- Hey, what's up, you guys?

237
00:07:51,888 --> 00:07:53,890
I kinda wanna go from, like,
dark to light

238
00:07:53,973 --> 00:07:56,684
just by using, like,
the photos and the lighting,

239
00:07:56,767 --> 00:07:58,728
- So check this out, right?
Since you had this,

240
00:07:58,811 --> 00:08:00,563
like, action photo right here,
which I love--

241
00:08:00,646 --> 00:08:02,148
it ain't really showing
the piece.

242
00:08:02,231 --> 00:08:04,066
You should try to incorporate
this into there.

243
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:06,068
- You have one action.
- One up close.

244
00:08:06,152 --> 00:08:07,486
- And then one up close.

245
00:08:07,570 --> 00:08:09,238
And then I would do,
like, a whole, like--

246
00:08:09,322 --> 00:08:11,073
this is the only one
that's kind of the full fit

247
00:08:11,157 --> 00:08:13,951
'cause we see the jacket
in pretty much all the shots.

248
00:08:14,035 --> 00:08:17,205
What besides the darkness
to light--

249
00:08:17,288 --> 00:08:18,915
is there any other
deeper meaning?

250
00:08:18,998 --> 00:08:21,250
- To me, when I got a chance
to actually look at it,

251
00:08:21,334 --> 00:08:22,627
like, patchwork here.

252
00:08:22,710 --> 00:08:25,254
You see the patchwork here,
here, even here.

253
00:08:25,338 --> 00:08:26,756
It's kinda, like, constant.

254
00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:28,549
That's how I started,
going to the thrift store,

255
00:08:28,633 --> 00:08:30,259
cutting shit up,
patching it together.

256
00:08:30,343 --> 00:08:31,761
Puttin' it on the back
of jackets.

257
00:08:31,844 --> 00:08:35,306
Like, that's a real part
of my history of design.

258
00:08:35,389 --> 00:08:37,683
- Well...
both: All right, Knoxx.

259
00:08:37,767 --> 00:08:39,810
- Good luck.
<i>- It's make it or break it.</i>

260
00:08:39,894 --> 00:08:42,271

264
00:08:49,862 --> 00:08:51,697

Barth in the finale.

266

00:17:44,938 --> 00:17:46,815
- I got
the most popular question.

507
00:17:46,899 --> 00:17:49,151
What does it take for someone
to get verified?

508
00:17:49,234 --> 00:17:50,360
- I knew that's what--
- Know what I'm saying?

509
00:17:50,444 --> 00:17:51,820
That's the question.

510
00:17:51,904 --> 00:17:53,280
- I knew he wasn't getting
outta this room

511
00:17:53,363 --> 00:17:55,282
without somebody
asking about verification.

512
00:17:55,365 --> 00:17:58,660
- So accounts are verified
based on notability.

513
00:17:58,744 --> 00:18:00,162
You need to be a public figure.

514
00:18:00,245 --> 00:18:03,624
The best way that I would
recommend going about that

515
00:18:03,707 --> 00:18:08,670
is by being on a famous TV show
on HBO Max.

516
00:18:08,754 --> 00:18:10,130
- Lemme get him outta here
before more

00:23:25,654 --> 00:23:26,905
Actually, can you guys--

678
00:23:26,988 --> 00:23:28,448
all everyone in the black
go to the end?

679
00:23:28,532 --> 00:23:30,492
And then you guys come
and fill in this way.

680
00:23:30,575 --> 00:23:31,952
- And then I'll close it
with the end.

681
00:23:32,035 --> 00:23:33,370
- Yeah, you come stand
where I'm standing

682
00:23:33,453 --> 00:23:34,496
and look at it now.

683
00:23:34,579 --> 00:23:36,123
Now just imagine it at the end

684
00:23:36,206 --> 00:23:37,624
or the beginning.
See this,

685
00:23:37,707 --> 00:23:39,084
this is a story.
- I see it now.

686
00:23:39,167 --> 00:23:41,586
Everything
just made so much sense after

687
00:23:41,670 --> 00:23:43,463
Law gave me his critiques.

688
00:23:43,547 --> 00:23:45,841
- This feels like
a strong collection.

689
00:23:45,924 --> 00:23:47,175
I like it a lot.
- Thank you.

690
00:23:47,259 --> 00:23:48,760
Man, Speedy, my brother.
- I like it a lot.

691
00:23:48,844 --> 00:23:49,886
- Thank you so much.
- Yeah, you're welcome.

692
00:23:49,970 --> 00:23:51,346
And I love this jacket.

693
00:23:51,429 --> 00:23:52,472
Good luck, everybody.
- Thank you so much.

694
00:23:52,556 --> 00:23:54,349
- You're very welcome.

695
00:23:54,432 --> 00:23:56,434
When I knew I was coming back,
I was--you know, at my house,

696
00:23:56,518 --> 00:23:58,103
like, "I wonder if dude
with the bees is still there."

697
00:23:58,186 --> 00:23:59,604
[laughter]
You know what I mean, like,

698
00:23:59,688 --> 00:24:01,439
so you definitely left
an impression.

699
00:24:01,523 --> 00:24:03,108
<i>- It's weeks later</i>
<i>and it feels good</i>

700
00:24:03,191 --> 00:24:05,527
to have someone of that caliber
remember you

701
00:24:05,610 --> 00:24:07,487
for that long,
and you've only met him

702
00:24:07,571 --> 00:24:09,156
for that short
of a period of time.

703
00:24:09,239 --> 00:24:10,407
- I'm still kinda obsessed

704
00:24:10,490 --> 00:24:11,700
with your first look, right?
- Right.

705
00:24:11,783 --> 00:24:12,826
- You send that out first

706
00:24:12,909 --> 00:24:14,161
and everything else is gonna be

707
00:24:14,244 --> 00:24:16,079
slightly a disappointment.
- Really?

708
00:24:16,163 --> 00:24:18,248
- I don't think
this is your closer.

709
00:24:18,331 --> 00:24:21,501
- Mm, better to let him close
since he's the strongest look.

710
00:24:21,585 --> 00:24:23,086
- I think so.
- He's letting me know

711
00:24:23,170 --> 00:24:26,715
my strongest look probably
shouldn't be first.

712
00:24:26,798 --> 00:24:28,550
<i>You know,</i>
<i>you should build up to that,</i>

713
00:24:28,633 --> 00:24:30,218
and that is an amazing jewel

714
00:24:30,302 --> 00:24:32,095
'cause I need to figure
something out quickly.

715
00:24:32,179 --> 00:24:34,014
- If I was working on your team
and I had to advise you,

716
00:24:34,097 --> 00:24:35,932
I would kill these two looks
altogether.

717
00:24:36,016 --> 00:24:38,476
This is a whole entirely
different collection to me.

718
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,103
These kids
are playing together.

719
00:24:40,187 --> 00:24:41,313
If I was your customer,
I'd be like,

720
00:24:41,396 --> 00:24:42,522
"What the fuck is he thinking?"

721
00:24:42,606 --> 00:24:44,274
- Damn!
- It's almost time

722
00:24:44,357 --> 00:24:46,234
for the challenge, so make sure
you come with it, Barth.

723
00:24:46,318 --> 00:24:47,319
- Okay, good luck.
- Thank you.

724
00:24:47,402 --> 00:24:48,445
- And congratulations.

725
00:24:48,528 --> 00:24:49,696
- All right.
- Bye, guys.

726
00:24:49,779 --> 00:24:50,864
- Maybe
we just kill the jacket.

727
00:24:50,947 --> 00:24:52,449
Now you streetwear.

728
00:24:52,532 --> 00:24:54,951
- You turn around.
Turn around, Isaac.

729
00:24:55,035 --> 00:24:57,871
- Knoxxy, how we feeling?
- What's up?

730
00:24:57,954 --> 00:24:59,497
- This is
the legendary Law Roach.

731
00:24:59,581 --> 00:25:01,041
- I need a hug, man.
both: Good to see you again.

732
00:25:01,124 --> 00:25:02,834
- She was excited
when I called your name.

733
00:25:02,918 --> 00:25:05,212
She started going crazy.
- Yeah.

734
00:25:05,295 --> 00:25:06,504
- Why don't you start
by telling us a little bit

735
00:25:06,588 --> 00:25:07,589
about your collection?

736
00:25:07,672 --> 00:25:08,632
- I'm gonna start the show

737
00:25:08,715 --> 00:25:09,758
and it's kinda just gonna go

738
00:25:09,841 --> 00:25:10,926
from, like, dark to light,

739
00:25:11,009 --> 00:25:12,010
but it's pieces.

740
00:25:12,093 --> 00:25:13,136
Like, you see a lot of patches

741
00:25:13,220 --> 00:25:14,221
so it's called "Pieces of Me"

742
00:25:14,304 --> 00:25:15,513
and it's all patchwork.

743
00:25:15,597 --> 00:25:16,973
This is my collection
right here.

744
00:25:17,057 --> 00:25:19,434
- Well, Law, what do you think?

745
00:25:19,517 --> 00:25:21,311
[softly]
- Um...

746
00:25:21,394 --> 00:25:22,938
I think it's fucking great.

747
00:25:23,021 --> 00:25:25,774
First of all, it feels like
a real collection, right?

748
00:25:25,857 --> 00:25:30,487
This feels like you about
to show in Milan or Paris.

749
00:25:30,570 --> 00:25:32,113
I'm super fucking impressed.

750
00:25:32,197 --> 00:25:33,949
Like, I would place at least
about five of these...

751
00:25:34,032 --> 00:25:36,409
- Whoo.
- On one of my clients.

752
00:25:36,493 --> 00:25:39,204
<i>- He's big in the game,</i>
<i>so for me to leave an imprint</i>

753
00:25:39,287 --> 00:25:40,247
<i>on his mind...</i>

754
00:25:40,330 --> 00:25:41,623
come on, man. It's lit.

755
00:25:41,706 --> 00:25:43,667
- You made
really fucking cool clothes.

756
00:25:43,750 --> 00:25:46,336
I can see walking into a store

757
00:25:46,419 --> 00:25:48,797
and buying any of these looks.

758
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,508
- Law's feedback is putting
a little gas in the tank,

759
00:25:51,591 --> 00:25:53,593
but then again,
I know it's not up to Law,

760
00:25:53,677 --> 00:25:55,637
but it's still making me
feel good,

761
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,013
like I hit the mark.

762
00:25:57,097 --> 00:25:59,057
- Very close
to being a perfect collection.

763
00:25:59,140 --> 00:26:00,809
- Oh, man. Come on.
- Yeah.

764
00:26:00,892 --> 00:26:02,644
- In my opinion.
- And I'ma drop in your DMs.

765
00:26:02,727 --> 00:26:04,688
Remember me, man.
[laughter]

766
00:26:04,771 --> 00:26:06,856
- I'm blessed being able
to use the platform

767
00:26:06,940 --> 00:26:09,818
that I built to help elevate
and shine light

768

<i>on other people,</i>
<i>especially young designers,</i>

769
00:26:12,404 --> 00:26:13,989
has always been important
to me.

770
00:26:14,072 --> 00:26:15,407
- Law, thank you so much
for pulling up.

771
00:26:15,490 --> 00:26:16,992
- Of course.
<i>That person could become</i>

772
00:26:17,075 --> 00:26:19,160

American designer,

773

that's beautiful.

I really always say it,

it really matters,

Vietnam was the seed.

everything you seeing,

What do you think?

- Knoxx?

1088
00:36:35,192 --> 00:36:36,152

1092
00:36:41,032 --> 00:36:42,783
you could create a brand
out of that.

1093
00:36:42,867 --> 00:36:44,660
You know?
But then Barth's hoodie

1094
00:36:44,744 --> 00:36:48,039
could easily be
a cultural shifter.

1095
00:36:48,122 --> 00:36:51,375
He understood that there's
a real serious thing happening,

with a real fashion show.

1100

Like Paris.
- Knoxx did, yeah.

1101

- But was it streetwear?
- It was streetwear.

1102
00:37:03,054 --> 00:37:05,973
I feel like Knoxx is
very streetwear, not fashion.

1104

- I mean, yes, you're right.

You're right.

I mean, she's had
some cool pieces,

1145

1150
00:38:35,354 --> 00:38:37,023
And his pieces were
always strong,

1151
00:38:37,106 --> 00:38:39,942
but he cleaned up all the--
the extra-ness of the hoodie

1152
00:38:40,026 --> 00:38:41,318

I ain't gonna lie,
he did not show it either--

1170
00:39:19,190 --> 00:39:20,441
his model should have took
it off--

1171
00:39:20,524 --> 00:39:22,234

- I don't know.
Khanh has a great language.

1175
00:39:28,616 --> 00:39:30,117
He could use that
to his advantage
