This time it's about proving your sense of style: skirt or jeans, blouse or top? At Munich Airport, the girls had to face the jury and spectators. She also expects a strenuous photo shoot on a suitcase treadmill.

“Germany’s Next Top Model” juror Kristian Schuller is planning the first big photo shoot on Derdesteen Beach in Cape Town. In oversized dresses, the models are supposed to hang on rings or balance on swings and look really elegant.

This time the girls are spared nothing from the shopping trip into the mud. However, it's time to close your eyes and keep going, because the season finale is getting closer and even the smallest mistakes can make the difference between a modeling career or a trip home.

As a model you have to be prepared for anything. You also have to skillfully avoid nasty questions from journalists, and some girls would have made a real embarrassment of themselves. But preparing for the fashion world out there is now more necessary than ever, because now it's all about making it to the final! Of course, every job you get helps you score points with the jury, and the greater the resentment becomes.

The jury around top model Heidi Klum sends the girls to the track, now the questions are being asked like at school! Commercials, commercial shoots, photo shoots and a running job in Milan: the judges want to see what the girls have achieved so far. Because this is their last week together in the model villa, after that only three of the girls go to the finals and saying goodbye is very difficult!
