True to herself, the moment she appeared at the height of the boarding steps of the majestic 707 that had carried top model Victoire Roux back to the Big Apple, the press went wild. Who was she wearing today? Why had she returned from Paris? Which magazine cover would feature her next? And (of course), was it true that she was in love?

The questions bored Victoire to death, but she knew she had to play the fame game, even as she longed to escape to the studio and learn more about the intriguing new Metamorphosis Ball she had been chosen to star in as a muse. Still, as she pushed her way through the most persistent reporters, something caught her eye.

There, waiting on the tarmac, stood her friend Laird Drake beside one of the most beautiful town cars she had ever seen. She took it as a sign.

She would be swept directly into the next chapter of this adventure, and the thought made her smile. Couture, after all, was her mistress, and there was no point in keeping the fashion world waiting. It was high time for her to discover the work of fashion art that would make her sparkle, if only for a moment destined to live in our collective memory for decades to come.
