Chapter 51 More Than Qualified to Be a Judge It was out of Silas‘s expectations. However, he found that it made sense too–

with her abilities, she was more than qualified to be a judge. There were a total of five judges, and Gian na sat right in the middle. After sitting down, she playfully smiled at him when she noticed that he was s till watching her. In response, the corners of his lips naturally lifted too.

Xavier nearly cried tears of joy upon seeing the smile on the president‘s face. Recently, Silas rarely smiled. Occasionally, he even became distracted and lost focus

during work. I was right to ask him to come and watch the finals of the competition.

At that moment, the host on the stage began his opening speech. “Good morning, ladies and gentleme n, distinguished leaders, and esteemed guests. Thank you all for taking the time to attend the 2019 Gla mor Vogue Grand Fashion Design Competition! I am the host for today, Seth White.” As soon as those words sounded, a round of applaus e rang out.

Then, the host smiled and continued, “This competition has lasted for three months, from the day we started accepting registrations to the day of th e semi–

finals. Among the thousands of works that we received, only the top ten works that were rated the most popular and the best–looking were selected! Today, those designs have been transformed into ready–

to–wear outfits! And, we are going to showcase each and every outfit today! Now, allow me to explain the scoring rules: the judges hold a total of 8 points, including 3 points for design originality a nd creativity, 3 points for the presentation and showmanship, and another 3 points for attention to detail and craftsmanship. Last but not least, we have 2 points for popularity, which will be decided by our aud ience. Take a look at the voting device in your hands; you can vote for any of your favorite designs by t he designers! With this, I officially announce the start of the 2019 Glamor Vogue Grand Fashion Design Competition! Let us welcome the first of our designers on stage! Welcome, Jasmine Thomson!” After t he host got off the stage, the surrounding lights dimmed suddenly, leaving only the U–

shaped stage lights on. Then, four girls walked out, one after the other, as soothing music played softly

in the background. They didn‘t walk as quickly as they normally would on the runway. Instead, they too k their time–almost as if they had to think before taking the next step.

Jasmine Thomson‘s designs were bold and bright. Her four designs utilized four colors and portrayed a good sense of depth. Gianna studied the models on stage without blinking, feeling somewhat pleased.

Although the design had some flaws which interrupted the flow of the works, the overall creativity was g ood. The presentation of the four outfits took around ten minutes. After that, the host invited Jasmine onstage. When Jasmine ca me onto the stage, she went through the routine of bowing, greeting the judges, expressing her gratitud e, and introducing herself. During this entire spiel, she didn‘t even dare to lift her head to look at the judges.

It wasn‘t until she heard Gianna‘s voice, “Tell me about the concept behind your four designs.” Then, sh e raised her head in confusion. When she saw Gianna, she was so shocked that she froze in place. Isn ‘t that Kaylee‘s sister? Isn‘t she participating in the competition? Why is she a judge?

Upon seeing her standing there in a daze, the host kindly reminded her, “Miss Thomson, please tell us

about the concept behind your designs.”

At that moment, Jasmine panicked as she began to explain, “I–

I‘m from the north. In the north, the four seasons are very distinct, and that became the inspiration for

my designs. I used light green to signify spring, hoping to make people slow down their pace in life, eas e up on the pressure of competition, and pay more attention to the essence of life…” Gianna nodded while listening to her introduction. “Okay, that‘s good. Your ideas and concepts are good. Still, your designs are a little rough on the edges. There is room for improvement in your desi gns.”

Chapter 51 More Than Qualified to Be a Judge Jasmine bowed. “Thank you.”

Following that, the host said, “Judges, please score her!” Jasmine clenched her fists nervously, secretly

but only I blabbered the most. Will this judge give me grief out of spite? Thus, she waited anxiously with a bitter expression. of the five judg Next Chapter
