Chloe woke up, threw a few essentials into a small suitcase, and made her way to the Grand Palace. Today was the big day-the official start of the design contest.
After signing up for the Paris Fashion Design Contest, participants had to pass the organizing committee's meticulous selection process. In the end, only 100 fashion designers from around the globe would be chosen to compete.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe contest rules were simple. The host would announce the thon the spot, and each contestant had 48 hours to design and create a piece based on that theme. On the third day, their creations would be showcased, and a panel of 48 judges would score them. The scores would then be tallied to select ten outstanding pieces.
There were ten awards up for grabs, including Best Design, Best Art, Best Fashion, and Best Market, among others. These category awards were each prestigious in their own right, with no specific ranking among them.
But the most coveted prize was the Luminous Creation Award. This unique award could overlap with the category awards, but no one had ever won both in the syear. Chloe was now in her seventh year of competing and had won the Luminous Creation Award once before. All her other wins had been category awards.
Chloe and Lisa had a bet riding on this contest: whoever won even one category award would be considered the winner. It would be a draw if both of them won an award or went hwith nothing.

Meanwhile, Chloe stood among a group of designers, relaxed andm smiling, chatting effortlessly in fluent French. It was clear she was in her element.
Lisa's fingers tightened unconsciously. If their fates hadn't been swapped as children, she believed it would be her standing there, shining bright and celebrated.
Soon, the designers took their seats. The host appeared, went through the formalities and then announced the Enn thof the contest. |||| "The thof our design contest is 'Time." X
