I don't think its "supposed to" I think it's their winnings and it's to help get them started. Actually mentoring under Michael Kors would be a very smart business move in that industry. Most of today's top designers used to work for yesterday's top design names. Mondo and Andy would do well to mentor under a designer too. The judges commented for all three that they had grown but still needed more growth.
