Assignment 4- Promotional Party
Delilah
When I first heard about the promotional party, I was of course excited but also really nervous. I had no doubt that word of my dress fiasco from before was big news; especially because it happened to someone as famous and well-liked as Jenny Goodwin.
Now, I was going to be in front of even more famous and beautiful models at a big promotional party. I knew I couldn't mess up this time.
Before I got ready, I had a chance to call my family. They reassured me that I'd do fine, and they still were so proud of me.
Their love and encouragement calmed my nerves slightly, but my nerves returned over makeup what to wear. I had to stand out, and my usual pink and girly wardrobe wasn't really going to cut it. For a few moments I watched the other girls as they showed off their dresses, and moved about in a hurry. They all looked so confident, and beautiful. I noticed Lachlan definitely was going all out in his attire, he looked like a male model you'd find front and center on a magazine cover.
I took a deep breath before looking through my closet. None of the clothes I owned suited a high fashion glamorous party. I was feeling frustrated, but continued to rummage through my wardrobe. Looking for something...anything at this point.
Then...I saw it. A long purple dress almost seemed to be hiding in the back of my closet. It was beautiful...I'd never seen it before. A piece of paper was taped to the hanger, with a small note. It said, ''Hope you find this useful. Mom picked it out, said to wear it for something special. Enjoy~ From: Your sister Aria, and Mom." I wanted to cry. The dress was so amazing, and looked expensive. Knowing my mom got it for me made me so happy and it's like I could feel my family's love within the dress. I knew this was the one.
The party was being held in one of the biggest and most fancy hotels I've ever seen. Everything just seemed to shine and glow; including all of the big stars and celebrities! Our group of beginner models went their separate ways, and I was on my own again. I took another deep breath, and began making my way through the huge crowd.
People were staring at me. Some smiled, others simply glanced at me and turned away. I felt my cheeks get hot; thinking about how I ruined Ms. Goodwin's dress before. I wasn't going to let that happen again tonight!
I lifted my head up higher, and continued walking. Suddenly, there was a tap on my shoulder. It startled me slightly, and I jumped. I turned, and gasped at who I saw in front of me.
The woman was Tiffany Isaac. Young, beautiful, and a break out star/model. She had her own clothing line, and I always saw her on TV, and in the magazines. She looked even more stunning in person.
She laughed lightly. "Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to startle you.'' She smiled widely, and I blushed again in embarrassment.
''It's okay, Miss Isaac...''
''Please, call me Tiffany,'' she said.''Hey, let's talk some place quieter.'' She touched my elbow lightly, and lead me away from the huge crowd over to a less crowded area. She sighed, and took a seat. ''These parties can get a little wild. I just wanted to have a chat with you, Delilah.''
I was shocked. ''How do you know my name..? I'm practically nobody.''
Again, Tiffany smiled brightly while shaking her head. ''I saw you on TV recently...something about ruining a designer dress?''
I looked away, my cheeks fully red. ''Oh no...''
''It isn't something to be ashamed of, Delilah. You're making a name for yourself, and sometimes things don't quite work out as we'd like.'' She placed a hand on mine in reassurance. ''I understand how hard it can in the fashion and modelling industry. People often didn't think I could make it. They thought I wasn't good enough to be a model. Yet, here I am.''
I met Tiffany's gaze. ''I just get so nervous and scared...That moment was so embarrassing! And now that everyone in the world knows about it...''
''Don't worry,'' she said. ''I don't care about that. Actually I wanted to talk to you and ask if you'd like to do a photoshoot with me sometime.''
My eyes widened. ''Are..Are you serious?! I mean...thank you! But, are you sure? I'm not exactly well-liked in the fashion world right now...''
Tiffany nodded. ''I know you can be a star. You just have to keep going, and believe in your dreams.''
I was so happy and overwhelmed. Someone like me being in a photo with a professional like Tiffany? I couldn't believe it. I was still in shock when Tiffany pulled me up from my seat, and stood in the center of the room. No one was around but us two....and a photographer.
''Smile!'' the photographer said, and picked up his camera.
Tiffany was beside me, and held my arm to keep me steady. I'd been noticed by a star! I had talked to her, and gotten the chance to do a photo shoot with her! I couldn't have been happier.
So, I posed and smiled. I smiled long after the photo was taken, after Tiffany gave me her number and walked away. I was still smiling when I went to sleep that night. I was soaring on cloud nine...I couldn't have been happier.
