Chapter 258

Hearing the announcement, the people in Rest Area A waited nervously.

The male host in a suit walked onto the spacious stage.

“Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, contestants, and judges, welcome to the annual Solterra Cup Garment Design Contest.”

“Over the past few years, this competition has produced many excellent designers. They have spread our culture to several countries through their designs.”

“Today, we’re lucky enough to have some big names in the industry. We have Flora, president of the Fashion Designers Association of Solterra, Sherry, editor–in–chief of a fashion magazine, Tess, president of the Women’s Wear Association, Maylin, president of Fashion Times, and Hans, CEO of Collins Corporation. Let’s give them a round of applause”

The audience broke into fervent applause.

“Also, among the two hundred spectators below, we have the cream of the crop in the industry. Famous designers, seasoned fashion scholars, fashion experts, fashion gurus, etc. They will be voting on site to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the competition.”

“Arabella, I’m kind of nervous,” Molly said, looking at the stage from the back of the crowd, her body slightly trembling.
