Chapter 1778
When the sunset glow was as bright as fire flames at six o'clock in the evening, the eye- catching fashion week officially began.
It was held at the largest arts center in the city. The show was very lively. Since the afternoon, the security guards began to preserve order at the gate.
In the fashion industry, the show was a grand event. In addition, it was a good platform for the brands and designers to broadcast their works. Not just people in this industry, the show also attracted a lot of stars, who liked to watch it. All those famous people together made the event spectacular.
So many brands and designers had joined, which made it challenging to stand out.
At this time, the melodious music sounded in the hall as guests were taking their seats one by one and chatting happily. Participants backstage were busy preparing.
Abby was also among them.
She was the representative of the brand, which decided to release its design products of the latest season on the show.
After the fashion show, the media would interview the outstanding designers, so Abby dressed up today.
She was dressed in a claret backless dress, wearing wine-colored eye-shadow.
Her manners had been strictly trained since she was a child, so her every move was pleasing to the eye, noble and dignified.
Different from other designers, Abby was very calm.
Backstage, there were busy running staff and models in high heels who were preparing for the show. Though everyone was busy, they worked in an organized manner.
At this time, a slender figure came out of the opposite room.
When she passed by Abby, she took the initiative to say hello to her, 'Abby!"
"Selene, why are you here?" Abby was a little surprised to see her. When she saw the night-robe she was wearing, Abby asked in confusion, "You..."
Selene was wearing the uniform robe for models.
It was a rosy silk robe without any buttons, and there was just a waist belt. Thus, it would be convenient for models to change clothes.
Selene replied, "I promised to help Tina and be her model tonight!"
A trace of jealousy flashed across Abby's eyes.
However, she hid her negative emotion very well. Still smiling, she continued, "Miss Hall?!"
"Yes!" Selene nodded and then looked around anxiously. "However, it's bizarre. The show is about to begin, but why haven't I seen her here?" Selene was quite freaked out.
To mend the rift between them, she promised to help Tina with the show. This time, she was sincere enough.
To maintain her excellent figure, she had eaten very little in the past few days. Moreover, she had gone to exercise in a gym early in the morning -she wanted to display Tina's clothes in her best condition, trying to earn more points for her. However, after waiting for Tina for a long time, she had not seen her.
Hearing this, Abby, suddenly being secretive, said, "She may not come!" Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
She knew it: A set of works similar to Tina's designs for the show were in a magazine published a year ago. Any designer would be flustered if the same thing happened to them.
Abby meticulously plotted this matter.
She was very jealous when hearing Lin highly praising Tina for her designs. Meanwhile, she paid particular attention to her and bribed an intern from Susan's studio. The intern then copied Tina's design drawings. By some means, Abby made the magazine.
The magazine was published one year ago before today's show. Without any other evidence, Tina had to accept the truth that she happened to design something similar to someone else's, which was unlucky.
Therefore, Tina should have been in a dilemma.
She would either quit the show or ignore the magazine and participate in it. If she chose to join the show, Abby would ask someone to expose the magazine afterward. Either way, she would end up in a miserable situation.
No matter what, Tina could not win her place in this show.
When Abby thought of this, a vicious glint flashed in the depths of her eyes.
Selene looked confused. "What did you just say?"
Abby put up a kind and bright smile, shaking her head gently and said, "It's okay. I was saying that she must have been delayed by something!"
Selene frowned and stomped her feet in anxiety. "What's more important now than the fashion show? If she doesn't show up, it'll be a big trouble for her as a designer..."
At this point, Selene's eyes suddenly lit up.
She ran two steps forward excitedly. "You finally showed up!"
Tina, who had just come out of the elevator, fixed the loose hair hanging down from her forehead and gasped. "Sorry. I've kept you waiting for a long time. There was a traffic jam on the road. Ahem..."
In the end, she looked a little embarrassed.
It was all Wilson's fault.
Before she went out, he suddenly took her to the big bed...
Tina changed into a beige twinset and a pencil skirt. Her clothes were simple-designed. Except for the simple ink paintings on the sleeves and the hem of the skirt, there were no other extra decorations on her. Every piece of her clothes was neat and tidy, which matched the theme of her designs for the show.
The previous purple dress, which made her a fairy, had been torn into pieces by Wilson.
As Tina thought of it, she blushed.
Fortunately, Wilson still remembered the fashion show and left her enough time to come here.
Selene, no longer feeling alarmed, said, "It's good that you arrived in time before it was too late!"
Tina patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.
Then she nodded politely at Abby and said, "Hello, Miss Amery!"
"Miss Hall!" Abby smiled and looked at the diamond watch on her wrist, saying in a soft voice, "I suppose you're going to display your works in the latter part of the show. You still have time to prepare. I wish you all the best tonight!"
Tina nodded. "Thank you, and I wish you the same!"
Selene pulled Tina and said, "Abby, we should go and get ready first!"
"Bye!" Abby smiled.
Looking at them walking into the opposite room, Abby looked greatly surprised.
She was really surprised by Tina's appearance.
Abby did not expect that she would dare to come.
Then, she realized that Tina came here hoping that no one here had seen the magazine. After all, the fashion show was a good opportunity that she could not afford to lose.
Unfortunately, she would be more miserable after displaying her works in the show. Abby thought to herself with pleasure.
Once a designer's works had been criticized for being imitative, his or her future career as a designer would be completely ruined. Besides, others would despise them afterward.
Abby withdrew her scornful gaze and turned to leave gracefully.
As soon as Tina entered the working area, she became particularly serious.
Every piece of work here had combined with her painstaking efforts. At the thought that she was going to show them to the public, she couldn't help feeling thrilled.
It was a pity that she could not wear the beautiful purple dress Wilson gave her. But the clothes she was wearing now enabled her to work more conveniently.
She checked the clothes on those models over and over again, making sure every elaborately designed detail could be well displayed.
When Tina just changed one of the models' high heels, Susan, who came over with a bundle of clothes, said excitedly, "By the way, I just heard that this year's fashion week was different from the previous ones!"
Tina asked, "Whats the difference?" Susan explained to her, "To make the show more appealing and interesting to the public, a popular vote is added! Every guest will receive a medal when they enter. They will vote for their favorite designer and their works. Unlike the formal competition, there is no ranking for this vote. But in the end, the designer with the highest votes will be announced!"
