B.O.R.N. to Style

The B.O.R.N. team is ready for action this week, with two clients, New York Metropolitan Opera dancer and lead singer of a band, Alison, and up-and-coming R&B star, Maxine Ashley. Alison is stuck in a sweatpants funk that she really needs to get out of. She puts all of her energy into dancing and singing, and often forgets to take care of herself. Her style icon is Debbie Harry, and the guys have their hands full transforming her into the rock star glamour girl she wants to be. Krucial Keys, the Grammy award winning music producer, enlists B.O.R.N.'s help with his newest prot g , Maxine Ashley. Maxine has just finished her first EP and is starting to really blow up on the music scene. The pressure is on as the photo shoot is only three days away and the B.O.R.N. team won't be able to meet her until the day of the event.

The team has its hands full this week with aspiring comedian, Rachel and the online shopping mini-mogul, Hukkster co-founder, Katie Finnegan. Rachel is need of a total transformation--after battling an eating disorder for many years, she is ready to stop hiding her body and to finally look like the confident and ambitious woman that she really is. Rachel's style icon is Mary Tyler Moore and the guys know just how to apply that simple 60s style with a modern twist to make Rachel look fabulous and ready to showcase her new look on stage. Katie is in desperate need of an outfit to wear to the TriBeCa Ball. Her co-founder won't be able to attend, so it's imperative that Katie's look turns it up a notch and stands out in the crowd. The guys are excited to pull looks, but Katie warns that there's one kink in the plan: she will be out of town until the day of the event.

It's a busy week for B.O.R.N. as they help transform new mom and elementary school teacher, Jessica and Culture Shock CEO, Debra Anderson. Jessica is a new mom who just got her old body back and is ready to be "re-B.O.R.N." Jessica has been wearing oversized t-shirts and hoodies since her pregnancy, but she's ready to up her game to emulate the ultimate cool rocker mom, Gwen Stefani. The guys need to teach Jessica how to be practical AND edgy at the same time while showing her how to embrace that post baby body. Debra is in a rush to find the perfect dress to wear at the TriBeCa Film Festival. She will be representing Culture Shock and she needs something fantastic that will transform easily from a day to night look. The team think they have it covered but a surprise visit from Debra's ultra picky husband, Hugh, at the fitting, threatens to derail their plans.

It's another busy week for B.O.R.N., as they style aspiring actress, Sarah and fashion blogger, Rachel Martino. Sarah is a bartender and aspiring theatre actress who dresses way too young and provocatively for her age. She's recently quit drinking and smoking, and has moved past the party girl stage in her life. Sarah's style icon is Katharine Hepburn, known for making men's wear acceptable for women and wearing elegant silhouettes. The guys throw away Sarah's skimpy dresses and show her how to dress like the serious, sophisticated leading lady that she wants to be. Blogging sensation, Rachel Martino, needs help finding just the right outfit for a Spring Beauty Kick Off Fashion event. A ton of other beauty bloggers will be attending, so Rachel needs a look at that is a cut above the rest. With Brandon out of town, it'll be up to Devin to step up and help JJ and Jonathan pull the perfect look for Rachel's big day.

It's an exciting week for B.O.R.N., as they transform Carmen from basic boredom to boho chic, and style Jackie Cruz star of the hit series Orange is the New Black. Carmen is a professional dancer who is looking to go back to school. Since she's been in a touring dance company, she hasn't had to worry about dressing herself for over 10 years. Carmen enlists the B.O.R.N. team's help in finding something she can wear to class and on job interviews while still maintaining a vintage style. Jackie Cruz, star of Orange is the New Black, enlists the team's help in order to find the perfect dress to wear to the Season 2 premiere. Tension runs high when the guys realize they're missing a key accessory for one of the looks they've pulled for this major TV star.

Never a dull moment for the team: this week, they'll be styling wannabe drag queen, Rachel and up and coming fashion designer, Lucie Haillie. Rachel is a beautiful, charming woman who is hiding her insecurities by overdoing her look and dressing in costumes. Her style icon is Jennifer Lopez, who's known for wearing fun colors and bold prints, but in a sophisticated way. It's up to Jonathan and the team to give her a make-under and show her how to have a wardrobe that's fun and showcases who she is without overdoing it. Lucie Haillie is a Welsh fashion designer who has moved to the US and wants to break out in the NY fashion scene. She has a cool and edgy style and wants Jonathan's help in finding the perfect look for the launch of her line. It's up to the team to find something that is both unique to Lucie, but will also fit in with her own line that she will be presenting.
