The one who can make the judges swoon over their streamline dresses, immaculately tailored jackets, or ripped denim jeans will win up to $200,000. But don't feel too bad for the two runner-ups. They'll receive $50,000 each to keep churning out their fresh designs.
We have our money on Alexander Wang. He's tattered pantyhose and blazers are too cool to be denied the top honor.
