Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn welcome 10 designers to Los Angeles, CA where they arrive with their first assignment already complete -- a two-look collection representative of their brand statement. In a twist, the designers must interview with Vogue Business to promote their brand before hitting the runway. One gets the win while one designer is sent home before they can even unpack.

Heidi and Tim give the designers their next assignment: a two-look, resortwear mini collection for a fashion show that will take place on a floating runway. One designer is redeemed after a weak showing in the first assignment while another designer fails to wow the judges with original prints and is eliminated.

The designers hear wedding bells as they are tasked with creating a three-look modern bridal collection — in teams of two. While some teams work well together, others bicker and fight to have their voices heard, and in the end, an unprecedented decision by the judges leaves everyone in shock.

For the first time ever, two designers face-off against each other in an all or nothing battle. Using their fellow competitors as their design and production team — as well as their models — the competition on the runway comes down to the wire and ends with a result no one sees coming.

The designers will work in collaboration with iconic American brand, Levi's, to create a two-look denim collection, with one look being an Avant-Garde denim showstopper. Many of the designers bring their A-game, giving the judges a tough decision while other designers falter and are forced to fight for their lives to avoid elimination.

The designers must create a two-look collection representative of their brand's journey for a marketing campaign video. One designer struggles with exhaustion from the competition while others struggle with the challenges of the assignment, giving the judges one of their toughest decisions of the season.

The final three can smell the $1 million, but before having the opportunity to create their final collection, they are tasked with designing up to 8 new looks to display in a concept store that represents their brand. All of the designers feel the pressure, not wanting to be sent home only one assignment away from the finals.

In the season finale of Making the Cut, the final designers must present a business pitch to the President of Amazon Fashion and showcase a final ten-look collection. One designer is crowned the winner of Making the Cut, receiving a mentorship, an exclusive line on Amazon, and $1 million to invest into their brand.
