Kayla's POV
Kayla went to the boardroom to make sure that everything was in order. She greated her creative and technical team who were already in the boardroom making sure the equipment and everything ready for the meeting. After ensuring that everything was perfect she went ot her office.
She pulled out her hand mirror to make sure that her make up was still fresh. The shreak ringing of her phone caused her to drop the mirror. She cursed to herself and picked the phone up. It was the receptionist informing her that Mrs De Punt and her team had arrived. She rose up from the chair and straighten her already wrinkleless dress.
With a smile plastered on her face she made her way to the elevator to meet her potential big client. After a few minutes of waiting the elevator signalled its arrival and it opened to show the woman she had was about to impress. Mrs De Punt looked even more beautiful in person. She was wearing a chic military green suit with a silk top and some silver stilettos. It was a simple look that but the woman looked elegant and classy.
Mrs De Punt
" Good morning Mrs De Punt. Welcome to AGLAEA DESIGNS AND COUTURE ." Kayla greeted shaking the woman's hand.
"Miss King, I would like to say I am pretty impressed with your establishment here. Thank you for the warm welcome. May I say your dress is absolutely stunning on you my dear." Mrs De Punt gushed as she took notice of the unique style of the dress.
" Oh please you are the one who looks exquisite." Kayla commented back. She knew that Mrs De Punt was a woman of elegant poise and flair.
"Is it one of your collection?" Mrs De Punt enquired, still captivated by the dress.
" Yes. Well I worked on this dress a few months back when I went to my home village. Thank you for recognising it." She was ecstatic that the woman recognised her unique style.
"You have unique style Miss King."
" So do you Mrs De Punt. Now if you would come with me, my team is waiting for us in the boardroom." Kayla guided them to the boardroom. Everyone stood as they entered and after they all sat down. Introductions were made and some technicalities were touched.
When it was finally time for the presentation, Kayla stood up and turned on the projector. Several designs and dresses filled the big screen.
"Here in AGLAEA DESIGNS AND COUTURE we strive to provide unique styles to our clients. Our new line of dresses are a collection close to my heart. The theme, colour, pattern and designs were uniquely inspired by local girls in a small village called Moremi. As you can see in our screens we design dresses for woman of all races, age and shape. We design dresses that make a woman feel special. We make a dress that gives the boast and confidence to every woman who wears it. We want the dress to make the woman wearing it feel like a princess. To feel like the dress was designed for her" Kayla said proudly.
The presentation went on as members of her team stood up one by one to impress Mrs De Punt. After presentations Kayla and her team took Mrs De Punt and her team down to the middle floor. It was transformed into a showcase room.
" Now we are going to give you a visual presentation of what we just said. We want you to see some of the dresses for yourself. We want to show you the type of beauty we create here. We want to show you how a piece of fabric can be manipulated and scrutinised to once liking.
One by one the models came a room to present dresses as Kayla spoke. Kayla was satisfied when she saw the sparkle in Mrs De Punt's eyes as she greedily googled at the dresses.
Mrs De Punt couldn't help but feel impressed. She couldn't take her eyes off the dresses as the model came into the room one by one. It was amazing how a peace of cloth could be manipulated and transformed to make something so elegant. When the show was over she couldn't contain her excitement.
" Miss King I have to say I'm impressed. The dresses were to die for, I mean the colour scheme, the embroidery, the design and everything. If you are ready I would like to discuss signing a deal with you."
Kayla felt like the universe was finally smiling upon her. She never thought it was going to be easy to win the woman over. They went to her office where they discussed and signed the contract. When Mrs De Punt left, Kayla gathered her staff to tell them the good news. Their office was in a whole different mood. When the team gathered to go celebrate she decided to go home and celebrate with her daughter.
This are some of the dresses presented to Mrs De Punt.
