A Look Back at the Classic Episode
At the time, Eric (John McCook) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) were ready to send their designs down the runway. The air was tense in the Forrester Creations showroom. Each of the designs looked beautiful.
Esther (Kate Lender) had a difficult time choosing the winning dress. Meanwhile, Countess Von Frankfurt (Marie Osmond) was annoyed by her. Lauren (Tracey Bregman) tried her best to help her friend out.
Esther was blown away by the designs. She also caught Charlie’s (Dick Christie) eye. The two couldn’t help but flirt during the fashion show. Meanwhile, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) noticed Donna (Jennifer Gareis) and Katie (Heather Tom) speaking in hushed tones in the corner.

She interjected herself into their conversation to see what they were talking about. She noticed Eric’s coughing fit. Brooke asked her sisters to explain what was going on. He suffered a secret health crisis at that time.
Blast From The Past
Eric nervously looked behind the curtain at the designs. Then, he gushed over RJ (Joshua Hoffman) and Luna’s (Lisa Yamada) adorable relationship. They seemed like such a cute couple then. Remember when Luna was such a good girl? She came a long way and was left for dead.
Eric was confident he was going to win this fashion war. He was finally going to get back at Ridge for relegating him and his team to the design office. As for Ridge, he was ready to teach his dad a lesson. He also thought he had this competition in the bag.
What’s To Come
B&B is supposed to usher in the return of the fashion wars. However, Forrester Creations is reeling from Luna’s death, which sparked a major PR crisis. Since Katie’s taking time out of work, Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) had to hire a crisis team.
Who could usher back the return of the fashion wars? Will Eric and Ridge have another fashion showdown? Or will it be Hope (Annika Noelle), who’s planning a big return for Hope for the Future? She wants to have her brother, Deke (Harrison Cone), by her side.
This could make Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) so jealous that she starts her own line. Out of pettiness, she could rehire Thomas (Matthew Atkinson) to work with her. We’re excited to see where this soap is headed next.
