Mary didn't speak anything and waited for her secretary to calm a little and continue speaking.

"I saw 'Midnight blues' worn by Lisa from 'Den and Jane'!!" The secretary cried.

"What??!!" This time it was Mary's turn to shout.

"Yes Ma'am." Her secretary replied..

"Are you sure?" Kizy asked her, trying to compose herself, even though she was shocked as well.

"Yes young Miss. I even captured her photo as proof. Though it's a little blurry, we can definitely recognize 'Midnight blues' from it." She said before passing her phone.

And as she had said, the model called Lisa was actually wearing the same piece as Alison, their 'Midnight blues.'

"What about 'Morning breeze'?" Mary asked quickly.

"I am not sure about that. As you know, we are not allowed to enter another team's room before this competition ends, or else we could be banned." Secretary said.

"Let's go and complain first." Mary said.

"We can't do anything for now. The first brand of Ramp Walk has already started. Plus as we were winners for the previous two years, we would be the last to walk. And people won't care about the truth by then. They would only think we plagiarised 'Den and Jane'." Her secretary said in a panicked voice.

"That shameless pair!! I knew Denver was a shithead since younger days, but how is Jane allowing this!!" Mary exclaimed.

"Mother, don't worry. We will definitely complain about this. But right now, we need to think about our outfits." Kizy said, composing herself quickly.

"Do you have any plans?" Mary asked with hopes.

"I'll ask Markus to secretly check if any other of our dresses have been copied. Only then we can plan for our changes." Kizy said before unlocking her phone and explaining the entire scenario briefly to Markus.

"You'll have all their designs in three minutes. But how much time do you have for making other arrangements?" Markus asked, panic evident in his voice as well.

"You don't worry about that. I'll make sure that only mother will win this competition." Kizy said confidently.

Markus nodded and ended the call.

"Ok, let's start with 'Midnight Blues' first." Mary said.

"Mother, they have only copied our main fabric and its pattern. We can't make many changes to the fabric, but we can surely do that with our pattern." Kizy said.

"I think we can add some more accessories, and give the dress a different cut." Mary said.

'Midnight blues' was a night themed floor length ball gown, clad in shiny shades of blue covered with diamonds. It was sleeveless with deep blue straps holding the dress on shoulder. It had a rectangular neck, decorated with a few pearls and diamonds, highlighting the neck and chest region. Overall 'Midnight blues' was an elegant dress, which presented the cold lonely night sky filled with glittery stars.

"Mother, if I am not wrong, we had a royal blue sheer fabric as extra material. Do we have it today?" Kizy asked.

"Yes Miss Kizy, just give me a sec." The designer said and rushed back to the tunk, returning with the sheer material Kizy had asked.

"Mother, how about adding this to the sleeves in an irregular pattern?" Kizy asked.

"That's a brilliant idea. Team, start with the work." Mary said and instantly all the designers were busy, some cutting out uneven sleeve material on both sides, some ready with the stitching material, some searching for accessories like diamonds and pearls to decorate the sleeves.

The tailor was stitching the sleeves to the dress when Mary suggested.

"Let's cut the bottom of this gown unevenly. And we can stitch this sheer fabric to it, keeping the dress length between knee and ankle." Mary said.

"We can also add the fabric and diamonds near its waist belt." Kizy suggested in between.

"Yeah. Let's do this." Mary said.

"Kizy, I was thinking that if we change 'Midnight blues' so much, it doesn't match with 'Morning breeze' a lot. What should we do about it? Because all of these belong to a single collection. So we need it to have some similarities." Mary said to Kizy, her voice sounding troubled.

"Mother, I was thinking the same, and I just came up with a suggestion. But I am not sure if that would work." Kizy said hesitatingly.

"Go on. If it is good  we can try it." Mary said.

"How about adding flower petals and a few laces to 'Morning breeze'? I mean we are increasing the accessories of 'Midnight blues' therefore 'Morning breeze' looks paler in comparison. But if we were to add more, it would give a different vibe." Kizy asked.

"Yes this can do." Mary said, nodding her head.

"Also mother…" Kizy said but paused.

"What is it?" Mary asked.

"Can we now add 'Midday blaze' to the masterpieces? Previously the other two were having milder vibes than the fierceness of 'Midday blaze'. But now all of them look great on equal footing." Kizy said.

"That truly won't be a problem Kizy. But you see, we lack models to wear highlight pieces." Mary said seriously.

"Oh I forgot. Let it be. We can go with the other two." Kizy said and went back to the two masterpieces, observing its designing process.

But suddenly Mary had a fabulous idea.

"Kizy!!" She exclaimed.

"Yes mother." Kizy said before coming back to Mary.

"How about you try 'Midday blaze'?" Mary said excitedly.

Kizy was truly shocked at this suggestion.

"Mother, I am not a model. I don't even know how to walk properly. Not to mention this is an International ramp where all people would be watching. I am afraid that I'll be an embarrassment to our team." Kizy said sincerely, not minding to accept that she wasn't good at modelling.

"Kizy, you don't have to care about how you walk or stand. Just wear this dress as a gift from me and go walk on the ramp like you usually do. You don't have to learn anything new. Just walk on the ramp, flaunt this dress and stand there in the limelight." Mary said.

"No mother I can't-" Kizy said but…

"Come on Kizy. Please help me out this one time." Mary said in an almost pleading voice and Kizy could no longer bear that.

"Mother, I can wear it, but I seriously don't want us to lose because of me." Kizy said honestly.

"I don't care about winning the competition anymore Kizy. A famous well established brand plagiarizing our design was my biggest achievement. I don't need a title to prove that." Mary said confidently.

Kizy was still hesitant, but after being convinced by Mary and her entire team, she agreed to wear 'Midday blaze'.

*HALF HOUR LATER, RAMP, INTERNATIONAL FASHION WEEK FINALE, COUNTRY A*

"Ladies and gentlemen!! Now we welcome the queen of the fashion world, one who has the record of being the only brand to have two consecutive wins to its name, and would be the highlight of today's finale - PURPLE!!" The anchor shouted, exciting all the big shots, reporters and fans present at the venue.

All of them gave a round of applause, screaming cheerfully for their favourite brand.

The music changed from that of rock to gentle soothing one, welcoming Irene, the first to walk from 'Purple', wearing 'Morning breeze'. 

The audience gasped at the flawless creation, clapping all the way till Irene went back.

This way all of their works were presented one by one, each of them receiving a positive response from the audience.

After the seventh dress was presented, the music turned from rock to mysterious tone, as if welcoming something unexpected. 

And there entered Alison, wearing 'Midnight blues' taking all the audience with surprise. Many of them were able to see that this dress was a little similar to a piece from 'Den and Jane' but this dress was a notch higher, reaching the peak of perfection. 

All of them clapped enthusiastically at the outfit, some professionals understanding that there was something wrong and 'Den and Jane' must have had some underhanded means.

Backstage, the team from 'Den and Jane' was shocked, not understanding how their masterpiece, which was supposed to be similar to that of 'Purple' had faded in its comparison. 

"How is this possible??!!" Denver roared at its staff, not understanding how 'Purple' came up with a new design last minute.

"But people will definitely notice that both of us have the same fabrics. So there is bound to be a controversy. I don't think 'Purple' can secure its spot with the two masterpieces." Jane, standing next to him, spoke.

"Yeah that's right. 'Purple' can not win with this controversy." Denver said 

"Boss, 'Purple' has another masterpiece!!" Someone shouted from the staff and Denver and Jane literally ran to the audience area, just to watch what happened.

"What is happening?"

"Isn't Alison the one who always ends the show?" 

"The music had turned to a fierce one."

"What is 'Purple' trying this time?"

"Wait. Wasn't the original supposed to consist of nine dresses. But only eight of them were presented. I think their masterpiece is yet to arrive." 

"But who is going to wear their masterpiece? Both Irene and Alison are done and are already standing here on stage."

Audience was now restless, unable to remain calm after knowing that the masterpiece of tonight was yet to arrive.

All of their attention was now on the ramp, waiting to see what was about to appear. 

And finally the most awaited moment arrived, with all the lights turned off and only the spotlight remaining, highlighting the person entering.

But that one moment was enough to shut everyone down and make the entire venue turn silent. 

People were shocked speechless at the outfit presented, which would be remembered for the coming years as 'Masterpiece of the century'.
