Summary
COI synopsis: Maggie Palmer finds the largest school of fashion in the world frantically preparing for the moment of truth - the few seconds on the catwalk that is all the graduating students have to get across their image to a demanding press and prospective employers. Maggie comes back to watch the show - will these fashions be prophetic or just fantasy, it’s up to the world to decide now.
