Making a Model with Yolanda Hadid

The very first challenge for five young models is to take a photo at Times Square. Will they be able to take the best shot that convinces Yolanda within the 30-minute time limit?

Fresh off her win from last week's assignment Mikayla is focused and on fire. Yolanda brings in Victoria Secret Model Devon Windsor and social media expert Olivia Perez to give the girls a lesson in the importance of social media for today's top models. The models' second assignment gives them the chance to put everything they learned about social media into practice when the girls compete for the chance to be the new fresh face for H&M's social media.

The young models are pushed out of their comfort zone and must conquer their fears as they navigate a difficult circus apparatus for a shoot for Guess Bags. Makenzie's insecurities rear their head, just as the circus shoot warms up. The girls must put everything they've learned from their circus assignment into practice on their first big swimwear shoot with celebrity photographer Jim Jordan.

Its makeover day for the models and Lilyan freaks out when she discovers Yolanda has big plans for her hair. The pressure is on for the girls as Yolanda surprises them with their first big meeting with IMG Models. Will the girls and their moms impress? And Yolanda has one last surprise for the girls with a new addition to the model house.

Yolanda takes the girls to see Broadway show Kinky Boots hoping that the message of the show: ‘to be confident in who you are', rubs off on the girls ahead of this week's challenge, which is walking the runway for Dutch designer Georgine. The guys from Kinky Boots give the models a masterclass on how to walk, and Yolanda brings in Top Supermodel Alek Wek to give the models one last confidence boost before their big day. And the model moms begin to feel the pressure as they question whether Yolanda is playing favorites.

The models must shoot a 15 second commercial for Makeup icon Charlotte Tilbury's new lipstick line, as Yolanda tries to stress to the girls the importance of being more than just a pretty face. Makenzie's insecurities threaten to ruin her chances, and Lilyan is confident her acting background will push her to the top after weeks of being in the bottom. Yolanda has come to Jesus moment with the model moms about their cattiness towards Karen and Mikayla.

It's the last week before the finale and Yolanda brings the girls to Gigi and Bella's favorite boxing gym to bring the fighting spirit out of the girls ahead of their biggest challenge yet. A photoshoot for Americas biggest brands Tommy Hilfiger, for the new Gigi x Tommy collection. The girls are directed on set by Gigi, and must pull out all the stops as IMG keeps a watchful eye over the girls. Tommy Hilfiger and Gigi help Yolanda decide who will win the campaign as the new Tommy Girl.

It's the final week before Yolanda must decide who she will choose to be represented by her and IMG. This week there are no more lessons! Instead the girls are tested on how well they survive a "Typical day of a real life model." The girls are cast out into the streets of NYC as they head to Go Sees with 17 magazine and Showroom 7. Then a casting with celeb designer Nicole Miller, before seeing how well they fair at a fashion networking event. The stakes are high as the girls compete for their final chance to win a management contract with Yolanda and the opportunity to be represented by IMG Models.
