* GenreBlindness: During the penultimate challenge the designers were tasked in making an outfit based on their visit to the history museum. Despite being flat out ''told'' by the judges to stop showing them draping, Rami took inspiration from the Greek exhibit, specifically the Grecian draping, rationalizing that how could he not make a draped design when that was placed in front of him. The judges are dumbfounded when his dress walks the runway, and very nearly eliminate him for it.
