Rebirth of a Fashionista: This Life Is Soo Last Season

Chapter 61 - Semifinals

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

The backstage area was filled with shouts and yells.

The models all hurried to change their clothes and line up as the makeup artists darted between them, fixing their makeup.

The music soon started, and the first model walked down the runway.

Zhuo Yiyan and the sharp tongued judge, Mike, were standing backstage, watching the fashion show live from the backstage TV with the designer.

One after another, foreign models with strong facial features and long legs walked the runway, imposingly striding forward in beat with the music. Their hair was styled in high ponytails, and their faces were painted in heavy makeup with smokey eyes and purple lips as if poisoned. However, even the striking makeup couldn't conceal the splendour of the clothing.

The unique tailoring, the variety of materials used, and the fashionable trends it rocked made every piece of the collection coveted by everybody. They all wanted to buy it on the spot.

The audience's eyes lit up when a black haired, black eyed model walked on the T Fashion Runway. Although there were quite a few Chinese models that had made an international debut, they were still rare on a fashion show abroad.

"Xiao Yang's stage presence is getting better and better," Zhuo Yiyan said as he took a step forward.

"Right now, she's already enough to become a supermodel." Mike nodded in response.

"She has a very distinguishable face that's well suited for international shows. I think everybody will like her," the Chinese designer commented.

Because the designer was Chinese, she was more considerate of the contestants who'd come to interview for her show. Earlier, 5 out of the 6 contestants had passed her interview, so the remaining 4 were all eligible to walk on the same runway.

The second contestant to make the stage was Luo Yi. She'd never walked in a big fashion show before, but she had no lack of experience in small shows like this. However, she was too afraid of failure, so her walk was slightly stiff.

"Luo Yi has experience, but she can't handle that 'do or die' feeling for this show," Zhuo Yiyan commented.

"My first impression of this contestant was that she was very pretty, but she didn't really give me the feeling that I wanted. If it wasn't for the desperation I saw in her eyes, I wouldn't have given her this chance," the designer also added.

Sharp tongued Mike nodded. "Luo Yi is a bit disappointing since throughout the whole competition, she's never been able to break through her own limitations."

"Right!" Zhuo Yiyan agreed.

After another foreign model, the third contestant, Yin Meiling, appeared.

"Mike, what do you think of Yin Meiling?" Zhuo Yiyan didn't have the right word in mind and immediately passed the question to Mike.

Mike had no worries about being blunt. "Apart from having a nice figure, everything else is bad, especially her brain!"

"She's actually very photogenic. I decided to keep her in the show last night because even when she's wearing normal clothes, it seems enough to do a photo shoot," the designer said.

"But today, it doesn't seem like she's grasped the essence of the clothes very well."

The last one to go on stage was Sheng Jiaoyang. She was arranged to come out second last, a position that would act as a foil for the last model. The model in this position would usually be very forgettable since everybody was looking forward to seeing the grand finale model.
