Due to the little party, Chiyo and Jelma never modelled
the second dress. They saved the unveiling for a low key event in a small dress
shop in Tokyo. Their stock mirrored freedom of expression and the breeziness of
flight. Kazuki's dresses fitted right in there. The shop sold many of Jelma's
work.
Jelma had had her hair specially done for it. My hair looks good. It just shows that the
small businesses are the most original and innovative. And best. Like our
Kazuki. A labour of love. Zenna did a great job on my hair. Stunning! Jelma
looked at herself in the mirror in the little changing room while she got
changed. There was only room for one. Chiyo had already got changed.
"Must be careful with this," Jelma whispered,
taking the dress, her dress, off its hangar. She knew that a fine dress only
looked good on a person, the right person.
A size 16 dress would look silly on someone who was a 10. When she was changed,
she looked in the floor to ceiling mirror. For five minutes. You'll do! Nothing's out of order.
Chiyo waited patiently for her boss. When Jelma emerged
from the changing room, both women looked one another up and down. There was a
pause; Jelma broke it. "Oh my God! Chiyo, you look fantastic. You really
do."
