For the Fashion Week-inspired mini-challenge,[3] contestants are asked to model two looks (spring and fall) on a runway. Alaska Thunderfuck makes a guest appearance, impersonating Anna Wintour.[4][5]
In addition to RuPaul, Michelle Visage, Carson Kressley, and Ross Mathews are judges. Kathy Griffin serves as a guest judge.[4]
The runway category has contestants wear resort looks that "tear away" to reveal an illusion of nudity. Violet Chachki is declared the winner of the challenge.[6] Kandy Ho and Tempest DuJour place in the bottom two and face off in a lip-sync to "Geronimo" by RuPaul (Born Naked).[6] Tempest DuJour is eliminated from the competition.[4]
Reception[edit]
Oliver Sava of The A.V. Club gave the episode a rating of 'B'.[6] The Guardian's Dominic Rushe said the episode's theme was "age versus beauty" because of Kandy Ho asking Tempest DuJour her age and Griffin accusing Kandy Ho of ageism.[7] Kate Libby of City Magazine said of the runway looks: "Some nipples were askew, some black bras were showing, but for the most part, the ladies brought it."[3] In 2022, the episode tied for a ranking of 9–11, with a score of 7.7, in Pride.com's ranking of the show's premiere episodes to date, according to IMDb.[8]
