CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

The competition was a group competition with unique regulations. The organizer called in a few models with unusual body shapes, and they would be allocated to each team. The teams were supposed to custom design clothes for their respective model, with the aim of downplaying their shortcomings and showcasing their strengths.

So, that effectively removed all the designers' models, including Sally, from the competition for that round.

Sally went up to Natalie and pouted, “This competition is too tough, Nat!”

Natalie nodded in agreement, saying, “Indeed. They don't set a theme but instead request we design according to our model's strengths and weaknesses. That means the creations will be so varied in style and difficult to compare. Also, if the style does not suit that particular model, no matter how brilliant the design is, that creation would end up losing points and lowering the team's average score.”

Designers prided themselves on their sense of style, and when they conceptualized a design, it was not meant for people with imperfect body shapes or proportions. In fact, they often did not want such people to wear their clothes so as not to ruin their designs.

More importantly, they felt having imperfect people wear their clothes would degrade their image and brand.
