LOVE BLOSSOMS AMONG TWO MAKERS IN THE MIDST OF A DIFFICULT FASHION-ORIENTED CHALLENGE,
IN THE ALL-NEW EPISODE OF GSN'S DESIGN COMPETITION SHOW 'STEAMPUNK'D,' AIRING WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9 AT 8:00 P.M. ET/PT,
WITH SPECIAL GUEST JUDGE, ACTRESS KIRSTEN VANGSNESS ("CRIMINAL MINDS")
On Wednesday, September 9th at 9pm ET/PT GSN's new skill-based design competition series "Steampunk'd" enlists actress Kirsten Vangsness ("Criminal Minds") to serve as a special guest judge in a fashion-oriented challenge for the makers. In the all-new episode "Brave New Wardrobe," the makers are tasked with Steampunking the manor's closet, complete with designing and creating five retro-futuristic outfits. While the challenge forces some of the makers to delve into unfamiliar territory, a relationship appears to be blooming between two of the contestants.
Inspired by 19th century industrial steam-powered machinery, Steampunk is a retro-futuristic design movement seen in everything from fashion, to technology, to pop culture. In "Steampunk'd" the contestants (also known as "Makers") work in teams and compete in a series of pressure-filled challenges designed to test their unique abilities to transform ordinary objects and fashion into creative masterpieces. Each week one of the 10 Makers will be eliminated and the last one standing will take home the $100,000 grand prize.
As each project is completed, the Makers will unveil their work for the judges, including the leading authority on Steampunk, Thomas Willeford; Matt King, creator, writer and director of the series "The World of Steam," and Kate "Kato" Lambert, the British entrepreneur and founder of the world's first steampunk clothing company, Steampunk Couture. "Steampunk'd" is executive produced by Kimberly and John Ehrhard ("Hogan Knows Best," "Miami Social") of Pink Sneakers Productions and Jennifer J. Duncan.
