On this week's episode of The Fashion Show: The Ultimate Collection, the designers meet up with Iman at a vintage accessory shop, and her first order of business is to even out the two houses. Since Jeffrey came up with the house name "Emerald," he will be rejoining Cesar, who is the only house member left. The designers have the privilege of meeting Simon Doonan, the creative director of Barney's, who chooses two accessories for each designer to work off of. They must create TWO
