Jack was a native Parisian, so he naturally felt a special affection for Paris.

This was also his advantage in the game, because most of the judges were French. s.h.i.+rley, in particular, who was the resident member of the standing committee, was a native of Paris.

The skirt also had some curved lines with liquorice stick juice, which looked like a flower in full bloom.

However, the biggest highlight was that he intended to crush the rock sugar and stick it to the blank s.p.a.ce of the skirt.

After the rock sugar was crushed, the edges and corners would increase, making it look as sparking, bright and beautiful as Swarovski crystals.

He said that the inspiration came from his favorite painted-gla.s.s windows of the Cathedral of G.o.d.

f.a.n.n.y had a special idea. She planned to make an elegant hat out of marshmallows to match the skirt.

Although Long Xi thought that she had an excellent idea, she felt that Jack and f.a.n.n.y's designs would be brilliant if they were successfully completed.

However, Jack said that this was a kind of risky idea, because it completely changed the shape of the candy. He didn't know whether the judges would accept a novel idea like this.

The crus.h.i.+ng of rock sugar was also very tedious and monotonous, because there was no mixer and it was all crushed by hand.

When it was near dusk, Jack and f.a.n.n.y were so busy that they almost forgot their meals. However, they both enjoyed it.

The atmosphere was completely different from Long Xi and Lincoln's group.

Long Xi and Lincoln had their own views from the very beginning, and they both had demanding personalities. Thus, neither of them would bow to the other.

Long Xi undertook most of the work without any complaint. Lincoln, on the other hand, was pa.s.sive and often grouchy.

While Long Xi was sticking candy to her skirt with the hot glue gun, she accidentally scalded her hand.

f.a.n.n.y thoughtfully applied the scald ointment she had prepared to her wound, while Jack insisted on taking care of all the hot glue gun work by himself.

“Just take care of the licorice stick and the remaining rock sugar.” Although Jack was a gay bottom who allegedly had a tall and strong boyfriend, he was a gentleman. He was much better than Lincoln, who was the father of three children.

“Well, it may be improper. We all have limited time, so we should do our own work by ourselves!” Since Long Xi insisted on doing it herself, Jack had to give up.

In contrast, Lincoln, who was Long Xi's teammate, was indifferent. He did not care about her injury at all. The mentor who saw this scene, Punk, felt profound resignation!

In the end, Long Xi's work was outstanding. It was proof of her painstaking efforts.

As Long Xi had predicted, Long Xi and Jack's clothes made the high-score group, which meant that the winner would be chosen between the two groups.

The judges had a very heated debate this time, because the works of the two teams were really well-matched.

In the end, Long Xi's work beat Jack's, achieving a narrow victory.

In other words, the champion would be chosen between Long Xi and Lincoln.

Unlike the American “Bridge Stormy Dress”, the French Stormy Dress usually announced the champion after the current expelled contestants.

Qiu Zi and her partner Daniel were the group with the lowest score.

They had designed a skirt with strips of black licorice sticking to the bottom, which was made of a mouse pad. The outfit looked like black armor.

s.h.i.+rley made sarcastic comments again. Although she was fond of handsome Daniel, her poisonous tongue was still merciless.

She said the model, Black Pearl, looked “large” when she wore the shoulder-padded dress they had designed, which completely covered up the model's good figure.

Black Pearl looked like a rugby player in action, and the licorice candy bars were like cuttlefish angel noodles. Moreover, these noodles were not sticky, so some of them fell to the ground during the show.

Because the idea of this dress had mainly been suggested by Qiu Zi, the judges thought that her concept of beauty was questionable.

However, their work did not get the lowest score. The lowest score belonged to another group, which was a combination of an Indian contestant and a British one.

In fact, their original design was good. It was a leather rock-and-roll black umbilical vest and a mini skirt.

The problem was that the material they had used was black chocolate.

It was a hot summer, so this morning they had discovered that more than half of the skirt had melted.

They had to rush to make the bottom of the skirt by using a handful of black cloth and black leather. Then, they had glued some candy on the skirt as decoration.

Because they had not used a lot of unconventional materials, their outfit was considered irrelevant.

After the judges deliberated, the Indian player was eliminated.

Next, it was time to announce the champion.

Linda asked Long Xi and Lincoln, “Who do you think should be the champion?”

Long Xi, who was not modest, argued reasonably, “I think it's me. He contributed nothing at all. I finished the skirt almost by myself. I chose the material, I made the design, and I created most of the skirt. ”

Lincoln said, “She was so domineering that she wouldn't listen to anyone. I believe that if I had used my design, I could have won too. ”

“Lincoln…” Linda dragged her voice and smiled at him.

Long Xi's heart tensed up violently.

There was no obvious tell between Linda's first and second announcement, which meant that Lincoln, whose name was mentioned first, may be the first or second contestant.

“Congratulations.” Linda smiled while Lincoln widened his eyes. “You are the current runner-up!”

“Oh…” It was unexpected that Linda would mess with him like this. He felt like a monkey!

At the moment, Lincoln really wanted to beat Linda and asked G.o.d how to attack the host.

“You can leave the catwalk,” Linda said coldly to Lincoln, who was somewhat absent-minded.

Lincoln left the show with a dark face. He didn't even congratulate Long Xi. He spared this superficial effort.

Long Xi, who won the champions.h.i.+p for the first time, danced happily on the spot.

Soon after, the supermodel was on the cover of a fas.h.i.+on magazine, wearing the clothes designed by Long Xi. This attracted a great deal of praise from the fas.h.i.+on world, but this is a story for another time.

The theme of the fourth phase of the compet.i.tion focused on one's hometown and couple outfits. The contestants were required to complete two sets of home-style clothes in four days. The two sets had to be couple clothes.

First of all, the contestants had to purchase the required fabrics at the fabric supermarket with limited funds, and the time limit was half an hour.

Long Xi bought a light lilac fluorescent cloth, which was relatively rare. She only found this one. What an unexpected harvest!

However, this fabric was expensive, so it cost two-thirds of Long Xi's funds. Long Xi was really determined to buy it.

Long Xi's hometown was a water town in the south of the Yangtze River with very picturesque scenery.

If Long Xi had to choose a color that symbolized her hometown, it would be a dreamy lilac color. Moreover, the world-famous double-sided embroidery was also one of the symbols of her hometown.

There was also a sweet-scented osmanthus yellow cloth with brocade-like l.u.s.ter and a pattern of peach petals flying in the sky.

That yellow cloth reminded Long Xi of sweet-scented osmanthus, which was the city flower of X City.

The peach blossom petals reminded people of the beautiful and famous Peach Blossom Dock in X City, which was like a paradise in the works for writers and poets.

The talented romantic scholar, Tang Bohu, had written, “There is a Peach Blossom Temple in Peach Blossom Dock where a Peach Blossom Immortal lives.” This described the Peach Blossom Dock in her hometown perfectly.

She also picked a piece of khaki fabric with an exquisite embroidered pattern of a river in Suzhou.

X City had many rivers, so it was known as Oriental Venice.

There was also a piece of black cloth for men's trousers.

While drawing the design draft, Long Xi thought of the beautiful autumn in X City and inspiration filled her.

This time, Jack and his female model came on the stage first.

Jack's hometown was on the coast of Nice, so the clothes he had designed were beach-related.

He was wearing a long sky-blue s.h.i.+rt with brown dyed beach trousers.

The beach trousers had been designed, dyed and sewed by him. The printed dyed patterns, which were really unique, showed his exquisite workmans.h.i.+p. They were brilliant and definitely worth showing.

However, compared to Long Xi's clothes, his outfit seemed too ordinary.

Jack's female model was wearing a seblue long knit blouse with half-sleeves and a flat collar. A white printed bikini could be seen dimly beneath. The highlights of the outfit were a pair of angel wings on the back of the blouse that represented the Angel Bay of Nice.

Long Xi's lilac windbreaker couple outfit was presented last. This time, the models were a little special, since the contestants had been asked to show the clothes on their own.

Long Xi looked like a fas.h.i.+onable girl walking along the river of X City when she walked slowly from the backstage in a light purple sleeveless windbreaker with light fluorescence.

As she walked, she untied the tie around the waist of her windbreaker. When she reached the front of the T-stage, the sweet-scented osmanthus-yellow plastered skirt with the peach blossoms and the two layers of black-lace flounces showed up, looking extremely elegant and stylish.

Linda was so absorbed that her eyes were reluctant to move away.

Byron kept a record of his feelings on the cards from time to time.

Guest judge Manna seemed to be imagining what she would look like in this outfit.

As Long Xi was walking back, the specially invited male model came from the other end of the T-stage, wearing the clothes she had designed.

His windbreaker was unraveled right from the beginning, revealing a beige T-s.h.i.+rt with an embroidered river pattern and tight black trousers.

The pair of trousers fit him perfectly, and the styling was so special that s.h.i.+rley, who was a pant addict, couldn't take her eyes off them.

When they were about to meet face to face, the heel of Long Xi's right foot was suddenly twisted.

She lost her balance and almost fell down.

All the judges said, “Wow!”

Fortunately, the male model reacted quickly and grabbed Long Xi in time.

Long Xi had no time to feel embarra.s.sed. She immediately thought about how to make up for this accident in her mind.

She could not let the show she had devoted so much on be ruined by the heels of her shoes!
