Chapter 297: A Dazzling Entrance
After he modified the dress according to Su Chen's requests, its quality immediately skyrocketed to an extremely high level.
If the original dress could only get a nomination award,
Now, it might even win a silver award!
Of course, there's still some distance from the gold award.
"I need another favor from you…" Su Chen said to Dilasi.
"My dear Su, what's this talk of favors, just command me as you wish," Dilasi, who had always been infatuated with Su Chen, was now even more smitten.
...
The fashion show was still ongoing, but for Yimena and her colleagues,
It was actually a torment.
Because they knew that they were doomed not to place.
Many exceptional works had emerged one after another.
Even Lin Xi's design, "The Dress by the Luo Shen River," seemed to be at risk of losing its top position.
It seemed that Paris Fashion Week, as the world's grandest fashion exhibition,
Truly boasted an endless stream of talent.
At this point, Lin Xi had already accepted her fate.
She actually hoped that Yiyang Group could win an award.
Even though she wouldn't gain the honor, at least it would be a recognition and acknowledgement of her work.
The fashion show, lasting over four hours, finally neared its conclusion.
Zhang Biao's face revealed a smug expression.
Even though many strong competitors had emerged,
He had bribed the judges, so the chances of winning remained high.
With the exit of the model from the 100th fashion company, it signified the end of the fashion show.
However, just when everyone thought the show was over,
The host suddenly appeared on stage with a mysterious expression: "Everyone, please don't look away, because there's still a special show waiting for you."
"Special show?"
Many people showed puzzled looks.
Haven't all the fashion companies already finished their presentations?
Could it be that the organizers have prepared a special show themselves?
Finally, amidst the anticipation of the audience, a model slowly walked out.
She was wearing a long dress with an interplay of green and blue.
What was unexpected was that the dress's material, besides the commonly used fabric and silk, also incorporated some living green plants.
This made it look even more lifelike.
Since there was only one model, coupled with what the host had said, everyone's eyes, including the judges', turned in that direction.
In an instant, the judges showed a look of astonishment.
This was definitely one of the best designs they had seen.
Even if it couldn't win the gold, a silver award should be secured.
Nobody expected such an overlooked gem.
"Eh? Haven't I seen this dress before?"
After a brief shock, someone suddenly spoke out.
Indeed, while the dress was stunning, it seemed to have already made an appearance.
Though there had been some changes, the general style and color had not altered much.
"I remember, isn't it the product from Company No. 29?"
"That's right, I have a distinct memory of it."
"This is an act of plagiarism!"
The emergence of this dress immediately sparked various controversies.
There were praises and criticisms alike.
Although all the major fashion companies take inspiration from each other,
This was, after all, a world-class stage.
To borrow someone else's design this way, especially as the finale, was indeed a bit much.
Moreover, once the judging began, if this dress could win an award, then the previous one would naturally lose its chance.
After all, the two dresses were not very different.
Lin Xi was also stunned.
Of course, she knew that this last dress to appear was her design.
Because the model was the one she had invited.
What shocked her the most was the change in the dress.
Although minor, it directly made the dress even more perfect.
She had always felt that her design had flaws, yet she couldn't pinpoint them.
But this dress had compensated for her shortcomings.
Although she didn't know why this dress appeared as the finale, it seemed that its transformation into something more perfect was visible.
Suddenly, Lin Xi felt that winning or losing was no longer important.
Zhang Biao's brow furrowed slightly.
What was this situation?
He could naturally tell that this dress was very similar to his.
Was this Lin Xi's revision that was re-presented?
But isn't that plagiarism as well?
Wasn't she afraid of being reviled for it?
Su Chen, of course, saw everyone's reactions.
Jokingly, with Dilasi personally handcrafting the transformation, how could it be anything but improved?
Of course, the most important thing was his own idea.
Because all Dilasi did was to beautifully realize his concept.
But did you think it was over?
Just as the model reached the center of the runway, a light rain suddenly began to fall from above.
Of course, it wasn't real rain, but artificially sprayed water.
As those delicate droplets descended from the sky, the dress underwent another transformation.
The droplets flowed through the folds, resembling little rivers moving across the dress.
The model's body became wet, and her hair turned damp.
Yet she continued to walk earnestly, showcasing her best side.
The tall and glamorous model, wearing a long dress that seemed to have rivers flowing on it, looked like a nymph emerging from the rain.
Everyone was captivated by this scene,
Including Lin Xi.
This was beyond perfect,
She didn't even know how to describe this piece of art.
Beautiful was an understatement.
And the model's temperament perfectly matched the dress.
The harmony between the two added significantly to the presentation.
"This is just too perfect, my God, who would've thought we'd see such a design, the entire dress seems to have come to life!" exclaimed an influential judge.
Clearly, after its modification, the dress shone with a brilliance that eclipsed its previous form.
Even after the model exited, everyone remained engrossed in that magnificent silhouette amidst the rain.
This piece, without a doubt, was a strong contender for the gold award!
Before, there were doubts that this was a copy of Company No. 29's work.
But now, that was no longer a consideration.
If one were to speak of plagiarism, it was probably Company No. 29 that copied someone else.
After all, in every aspect, this dress far surpassed the original design.
Lin Xi's eyes were moist with emotion.
It was truly too beautiful.
Even she didn't realize that a dress she designed could be so stunning.
And it perfectly matched the vision she had designed it for.
Inspired by "The River God's Wedding," it was her imagined scene come to life by the Luo Shen River,
Only she lacked the ability to achieve this effect.
After all, who would make it rain artificially during a show?
Even if you wanted to, the organizers wouldn't agree.
"I believe everyone is very curious to know who the designer of this dress is, right?" the host once again mysteriously announced.
