Shopping Trip

cw: fingering, praise, Gojo

word count:1.8k

Author’s Note: I have no idea why this took so long to finish...I don’t think I even like how it turned out😭

You loved shopping with Gojo, the guy has way too much money that he doesn’t know what to do with it. But you do. There are special times when he gives you his black card to do whatever you want for a day, whenever you are sad, or if it's a celebration he just hands it to you. You and Gojo have known each other since childhood. Yes, he's annoying but he grows on you. There are times when you're not sure what your relationship with him is. Friends, who flirt? Childhood friends with sexual tension? Who knows but you enjoy each other's company…most times.

“Gojo…come on walk faster,” you yelled over your shoulders. There was a new luxury clothing store in the mall you've been wanting to visit and now is your chance to go crazy. You saw a few of their clothing items online before and you were interested. Gojo groans behind you.

“Try carrying around a shit ton of shopping bags. I’m hungry” he whined. Entering the store you roll your eyes at him.

“Stop complaining, you big baby…I'll buy you some sweets after this. Aren't you supposed to be the strongest sorcerer….and you're complaining about 10 bags.” You scoff walking away, and you laugh to yourself about Gojo being dramatic as usual. He should be used to this by now.

Gojo drops himself and the shopping bags on a couch in a changing room while you run off to collect some clothes to try on.

You walked into the changing room with a rack of clothes dropping them where Gojo sat, idly scrolling through his phone.

"Okay, Goj pay attention you gotta help me pick out some items."

He nods, not even looking up from typing on his phone.

"Who are you even texting?"

He smirks at you, " The many women I entertain"

You scoffed at him "Oh please, the only woman that can tolerate you is me…barely. Now help me"

"Ugh fine" He rolled his eyes, dropping his head against the couch. "Go on do your little runway" He shakes his hand shooing you away.

"Thank you." You say sarcastically walking into the tiny room.

You walk out wearing one of the outfits you picked

"Thoughts?"

Gojo looks up at you. His finger swirled, indicating he wants you to spin, which you obeyed.

"Hmmm… it's a great colour for you but it does nothing for your curves. Next."

"Yea…I agree."

You go back in to try on another item. You slide the curtain open to reveal the sundress you picked out.

“I like this one. The colour is cute and I look amazing.” You swirl for Gojo to see the entire dress.

“Hmmm,” he hummed looking at you weirdly. This fuzzy feeling is growing in your stomach, Gojo is overtly checking you out.

“It’s beautiful on you but short…that swirl was very close to revealing parts of you I haven't seen” You laughed. “I’m obviously gonna wear shorts under it because I don't want any pervs checking me out.” You gave him the ‘I’m talking about you’ look.

“Shut up. Put on something else.” You laughed heading back into the changing room for your new outfit.

This time you chose a bodycon dress, it's black with a small cut-out to show off some cleavage.

You walk out to show Gojo.

"I love this one, it fits perfectly and my ass and tits look great" you spin to show him everything.

Gojo whispers fuck as he sits up to look at you. He's scanning every inch of your body in that dress.

"Perfect. You look gorgeous. I’ll have to fight men off of you" He looks at you, both so heated and longingly that you're stuck in place. You stand there looking at each other for a while which felt like an eternity.

"Um, I'm gonna take this off…I'm suddenly so hungry." You cleared your throat breaking the spell, scampering off into the room.

Gojo finally snaps out of your trance after you left. What the fuck just happened….he thought.

You were taking longer than usual to come out of the room. Gojo walks up to the curtain hesitantly. "Uh, are you okay in there? Do you need help?"

"Um yes, please thank you Goj"

He slowly pulls the curtain to see you struggling with the zip of your dress.

“The zip got stuck.” you pouted making eye contact with Gojo in the mirror. He walks up behind you to help you unzip the dress. Gojo’s cold hands touch the nape of your neck causing goosebumps to erupt all over your skin, you gasp softly surprised by the feeling it awakens in you. He grunts as he tugged at the zipper, your mind racing at the thought of your relationship with Satoru. You guys never really moved past friends yet there is so much tension between you. He was a known womanizer and you were scared of sharing that part of yourself with him but you trusted him with your life. Wrapped up in your own thoughts you forgot where you were and who you were with.

You heard Gojo clear his throat. “Um… the dress is undone…”

“Shit!!!” you looked down forgetting that you didn’t wear a bra today. Your tits were on display for Gojo to see. You held the top of your dress turning to face him.

“You didn’t see anything. I don't want to hear a word of this.”

Gojo displayed his signature smug smirk.

“Oh but I did…Your tits are beautiful by the way,” he said, staring at you intensely.

Your face heats up looking at Gojo, it's the same look as before. You love it. You want him to only look at you like this. You just stood there staring at him again. After a long pause, you spoke.

“Touch me” you whispered under your breath. Again he responds with that dumb smirk. Satoru walks up to you cradling your jaw in his hands, and his thumb rubs your bottom lip.

“If you want me to do something sweetheart, you gotta beg more than that.”

You wanted to scoff, roll your eyes, just do anything to not give in to him so easily but you did.

“Please Toru, I’d do anything just please touch me. I need to feel you.” You plead to him, aching for his smallest touch. Your desperation and neediness roll off of you as you lick and suck on his thumb. Gojo moans at the sight of you.

“You’re such a pretty girl when you beg.” He takes his thumb, pushing it in and out of your mouth before releasing it. His lips met yours in an assertive kiss. Your warm lips melt into each other, molded in a heated dance of pent-up passion. His pale lean arm wraps around your waist as the other slides down to grip your ass cheek. You instantly moan into the kiss. You feel his smirk against your lips, loving your response to his touch. You pull away slowly, so caught up in the kiss you forgot to breathe.

“God-” peck,” I’ve been thinking-” peck, “about doing this forever” Gojo continues to leave small kisses all over your face. Your body is on fire, you can’t think or breathe, and all you can do is take Satoru in. His smell, his touch, and his beautiful azure eyes. Gojo stares at you so deeply that you feel it in your soul. While holding his gaze, you strip out of the bodycon dress, leaving you in your underwear. You feel his stare grow more heated, his eyes so dilated they turn dark blue. He holds you by your waist and turns you roughly to face the dressing room mirror, his hand ventures down to the waistline of your underwear.

“I want you to look at yourself while I touch you, you’ll see how bewitching you will look when you come.” Gojo’s sweet words pour out of his mouth like honey, making you feel so wanted. Holding eye contact through the mirror, you nod at him.

“I need words love.”

“Yes, Toru.”

Gojo kisses your neck as his fingers spread you open playing with your slit spreading your slick and wetness around your lips and clit. You let out a small whimper as he puts pressure on your aroused clit.

“Fuck baby you’re so wet for me. All this for someone you think is so annoying.” Satoru chuckles, teasing you. His two fingers massage and rub your slick clit, and your knees buckle as pleasure takes over your body. Gojo holds you firmly by the waist keeping you upright.

“Shut….up.” you moaned softly.

He laughs in your ear. “Look at you. You’re a sopping mess,” he says, holding your face firmly, looking at you in the mirror. His fingers slowly penetrate your warmth. You moan out fuck stretching the words out.

“My pretty girl has such a dirty mouth.” Gojo thrusts his fingers slowly, relishing in the feel of your tight cunt and the beautiful sounds you make. He curls and spreads his fingers inside you as his palm presses down on your clit. Your pussy soaks his hands filling the tiny room with wet noises. You look down from the embarrassing noise your pussy makes as Gojo pleases you.

You feel his hand wrap around your throat. “ ah, ah, ahh. Look up. Keep your eyes on the mirror. Don’t be embarrassed, baby. These sounds are music to my ears.”

“I-”

You cry out as Satoru quickens the pace of his fingers. He curls them again, reaching the best place ever, causing you to moan loudly. Your hips jerk wildly chasing the source of pleasure.

“Yes baby, give it to me. Please cum for me? I need to see it.” Gojo continues to pump his fingers into your tight hole, adding another finger inside you. The feeling of Satoru’s breath against your ears begging you to cum for him and his third finger stretching you out, you feel close to climaxing.

“M’ gonna cum. Mmh…fuck Toru I’m close” you whine out craving more of Satoru.

“Ooh look at you, baby. You look so perfect. Give it to me, give me your cum. Go on darling, come for the greatest sorcerer to exist.” More of your wetness drips down Gojo’s hand as the built-up pleasure inside you bursts, releasing all over him. You whimper as your intense orgasm washes over your body. You watch yourself cum on Gojo’s fingers, your face flushed, your body glistening with perspiration but you can’t look away. His pace slows down as he lets you ride out the waves of your climax.

“See that baby. Bewitching. An absolute goddess” He kisses and smiles against your flushed neck.

Exhausted from cumming you lean your full weight against the font of Gojo. You can feel his hard warm cock pressing against your ass. Watching him through the mirror, you slowly move your hand to grope his cock before he grabs your wrist.

“Not here. We’ll continue this elsewhere before the store clerks interrupt us. Get dressed so we can leave.” Satoru pecks your cheek before picking up the items you chose to purchase.

You’re left in the changing room realizing the weight of what you just did with Gojo Satoru.

“Fuck.”

All about your crush 😻 👀

Pick a pile/pick a group PAC

Pick one of the boys: What does your crush think about you?👀

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

I was inspired by the cast of the show Revenge which debuted on ABC when I was surprised to learn that the main character Emily Thorne (blonde lady pictured below) is actually married in real life to another character on the show, Daniel Greyson, who I actually did not use in this reading.. NO SPOILERS

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

✨Nolan✨

• dresses preppy or formal • wealthy • clean shaven / clean cut • Burberry • Tom Ford • Lacosté • Ralph Lauren • designer, luxe, luxury, • jewelry like watches or cuff links • suit and tie • corporate • first or business class • fresh food never frozen

• this person can be found at social gatherings a lot or you may have met them at some type of event, probably formal or having to do with work. If not, then you may have known this person for a long time thru family. Or this person could have grown up in the same neighborhood as you, may have went to a school of other mutual friend’s but not your school. This could be a family friend/associate who you’ve always known but you all may not have had your own personal or intimate relationship.

• this person gives off air sign energy or mutable enrgy mainly gemini, but could be any of the mutable signs. This person likes to stay busy bc they have to. They’ll begin to overthink or get anxiety if they’re too still or not busy being involved in some type of gathering. This person knows how to socialize and party but that doesn’t mean they’re a party animal. They network for the sake of their reputation or business, but they are in no ways a clout chaser. They have a very androgynous energy so they may have both genders pining after them which gives them many options to choose from except they’re very picky with their dealings. They’re very sought after for their work, reputation, and wealth and you two may come from completely diff words. For that reason you all may have not connected or hung out previously bc of fear.

• either you or this person didn’t initially approach the other bc he didn’t want to come off as chauvinistic or as if he can get whatever he wants due to his status. This person is very humble and down to earth but has been burned by betrayal. This person wants to be seen as normal, but not regular, meaning that they want to be noted for their hard work not just for their finances or donations.

✨This person will like to make you laugh and watch you from afar just to study you for example if you show up to the same place (or event) they’ll pay attention to your look and style bc they’re into that. They admire fashion specially runway and couture bc that’s what they can afford.

✨ this is not your typical rich boy troupe, for they have worked very hard to be where they are and it is deserving. This person could have good aspects to their Jupiter or 2nd house.

✨ they noticed you bc of who they’ve seen you conversing and interacting with and they’re intrigued bc most women who remind him of you are gold diggers or manipulators and he can peep 👀 game from a mile away (this is what he does for a living in the business world)

What do they like about you?

• Regardless of the romantic feelings between the two of you, you all will find long lasting friendship in one another first and last. This could be a friend turned lover or a romantic connection that ends in forever friendship with no love lost. This person has respect for you and sees the class you have, whether one of you or neither of you are wealthy neither of you care about that, but they see how valuable you are. They see you as very talented and well connected and since they’ve been introduced to so many rooms and tables they’ve seen it all from people who are superficial, users with ulterior motives, or people who bring nothing to the table except for what they can take from others. This person feels like you are deserving of everything great that comes your way and they see you as someone they can trust and even come to for advice. They hope that n the future you all will be able to put your heads together and work together. There could be initial attraction between you all, but you two happen to both be very focused individuals more so determined to build wealth. This person sees you as easy going and tbh I feel like the both of you see yourselves in each other but you’re not the type of people to outwardly discuss that at first. A lot of air sign energy; they don’t want to get hurt, but they know how to take a game or risk when it comes to new opportunities. They see you as an opportunity to grow and not a liability; not saying that they want you for what you can do but more so they see how the two of you together as wolves of Wall Street lol xoxo

✨✨

✨Aiden✨

• stoic, observant, calm • casual, quiet, under the radar, off the grid • traveler, multi-faceted, exclusive • elusive, sleeper build, trustworthy • high class, foreign, mysterious • limited edition

• most likely you’ve met this person at work or some type of community event or religious banquet.. wherever it was it’s similar to group 1 (Nolan) where the event could have been more formal or you needed to dress up to attend. Lol my readers are classy individuals so plz check out the Nolan group if you’re here <3 ANYWAYS , this person may not have felt it was appropriate to approach you bc maybe they’re older than you (meaning you’re well over 21 and so are they. If you aren’t 18 you shouldn’t be talking to anyone over 18 now if they just turned 19 or you’re about to that’s diff but I ain’t ya mama I’m just letting you know.. again , ANYWAYS) this person maybe knows your dad lol so if they felt it wasn’t appropriate it’s bc they’re very respectable and this could be the reason why I’m feeling it was a religious event like something for church bc n their head they’re like “ this isn’t speed dating” lol. RESPECT.

• this person understands that there’s a time and place for everything which gives me a more mature vibe from this person, OR if they felt it wasn’t appropriate to approach you it’s bc they’re traditional and want to ask your parents or whoever raised you like aunts, uncles, grandparents or whoever for their persmission first 🥹 AWWWWWNN 🥹🥹 das so sweeeeeet ahaha nah fr I’m jeally lowkey bc I love traditional romance not this hookup culture talking stage bull crap pew 🤢

• this person is very formal and doesn’t like to be the center of attention, but they’ve noticed you for a while actually which I love bc I’ve gotten in all my groups that the feeling is mutual between the crushes teehee .. they’re very imaginative, but they like to make sure they’re making the right decisions before they make one.. that’s important to them. And everything they do with intention, so tbh they’ve been plotting for while now how to approach you bc even tho they’re not the show-offy type, don’t be fooled bc this person would go allllll out for you. They’ve haven’t been n too many commitments bc they don’t believe n casual dating, but that doesn’t make them inexperienced. They’ve had great examples of leading men and women figures n their life so they come from a great background and they take commitment serious once involved. Your value is NOT measured by how others see you, but tbh they’re aren’t too many men out there like him and you should be flattered fr fr..

How do they feel about you?

✨ what you see isn’t always what you get with this person bc they’re very deep and definitely more than what meets the eye. They may look like your typical playboy or seem like a ladies man bc I’m ngl they can’t get a break.. LITERALLY.. he’s always being approached by stunning women and the occasional pick-me, but he attracts women with alpha energy lol and he hopes that doesn’t make you think less of him

✨ he feels like you are royalty and should be treated as such which is why he doesn’t approach you so casually.. he wants you to understand him and his approach. He feels like you deserve grandeur even tho he may not always be the best at expressing his feelings and he actually sees you as someone who is very knowledgeable and educated so he has been actively trying to better himself in learning about his family history and maybe he’s into astrology and would love to take a look at YOUR natal chart 👀 OOOOOH where is he atttttt doeeeeee bc dis my man right here ahaha 🤣 ugh I’m a sucker for this kind of stuff

✨ bc of how you look of look or dress he may assume you’re wealthy so doesn’t wanna come off cheap even tho he doesn’t think you’re a snob and even if you aren’t wealthy you look regal 100% of the time OKURR. He knows that you’re a group leader and organizer and that you like to help out (esp n the community) which makes him think you’d be an amazing wife and mother to someone one day if not to him, whoever it is would be lucky… he feels like if he asks you out of tried to talk to you you’d reject him and you probably would 🤣 bc you think he’s an F boy but he’s not.. he can tell tha you’ve been betrayed n the past and that’s mainly bc you probably had a very public breakup or falling out with someone or a group. But he knows they did wrong by you and you’d be best off without those people anyways bc they’re not on your level. He feels honored to be n your presence whenever you’ll are at the same places honestly. He may be tall or very built; extremely masculine physique and he sees you as so dainty and fragile tbh he feels like you’d be better off not knowing him cuz he isn’t sure if he’d know how to love you properly bc to him you are the personification of love… xoxo

✨✨

✨Jack✨

• familiar, nostalgic, past lives, spiritual • expressive, passionate, loving, energetic • caring, wise, maternal/paternal/fatherly • chemistry, attraction • physically active, athletic • focused, determined • loner • alpha, manly, muscular, hairy • nice cologne, fireside chat, night visits, rocks thrown at the window kinda vibe, let’s cuddle, staycation together

• strong water energy mainly piscerian. This guy has a burning fire inside of him for you and majority of the time won’t show it (in a larger crowd lol like a Scorpio) this guy thinks you’re really pretty and he hasn’t seen anyone like you before. It’s something about you that takes his breath away and he wants to know what you look like with different types of hair styles and looks LOL what.. he wants to take you out on a dinner date or maybe something romantic like a boat ride. He’s very sweet and creative and will find fun ways to woo you like words made of rose petals

• he puts his heart before his head bc his head may convince him otherwise so he’s a just go for it kind of guy bc he’s very passionate. I feel like you guys could live or work close together or n the same area maybe you go to the same school but you live n diff buildings (duh bc do colleges even do coed LOL) but if he sees you on campus he ONLY sees you at certain times and places but sometimes he doesn’t see you and he’s like dam.. he’s hoping he sees you talking to someone he knows so he can ask more about you.. NOT IN A STALKERY WAY just a mutual crush 😏 so if you were wondering… confirmation.

• YOU could have seen him and you all have similar thoughts about hoping they know a mutual so you can ask more about them. But I feel like you’re too shy and he’s honestly not too mixy or involved .. he could either play a sport or be in some type of frat or organization bc there’s some reason besides class that forces him to be on campus or else he’d prob just hideaway in his room (no pun intended 😜 iykyk 🤭)

✨ If you were wondering if your crush notices you yes they do! I feel like you should shoot your shot and make the first move lol it doesn’t have to be too forth coming or aggressive but you could introduce yourself and say hey I’ve seen you around and you seem pretty cool. Go from there lol he’s kind of a shy guy and he may not approach you AT FIRST bc you’re so pretty and he doesn’t wanna come off too strong but since he has Alpha energy he isn’t gonna let too many encounters go by before you slip away PLUS there’re a few gals (maybe guys too lowkey LOL) with their eye on him bc everyone kinda has a crush on him bc he’s mysterious and not n everyone’s face like most of these guys r esp on campus or n school

✨ he’s seen you around other pretty girls or the Misses of your school if your school does the royal court thing and that kind of intimiades him bc he doesn’t really understand it all and doesn’t wanna be rude or weird lmao he’s very respectful and well mannered. BUT I see y’all passing each other alone and you guys catch each others eye maybe you’ll both start blushing and can’t stop awwww PLZ LMK IF THIS HAPPENS

Future of this connection / what happens next?

• if you get ahold of their birth chart you’ll be VERY surprised to see how your synastry parallels/aligns but if your moon signs are opposite that may not be your guy esp if you haven’t reached your Saturn return yet BUT just know that any opposing energies is room for OPPORTUNITY that could be good OR bad depending on how you perceive it but either way it may cause a challenge more than a conflict so don’t be discouraged just be wise..

• this type of connection feels like the one that is very passionate n the beginning then dwindles out like a flame (maybe you could be twin flames). This could piss you off if you’re more and more attracted to this guy bc of his nice guy persona which is genuine, but he may struggle with his confidence and it can make him jealous or clingy but he’ll prob grow out of that. You’re prob really sought after also except you’re a bit more outgoing than he is so you’ll be seen amongst larger crowds which can raise his judgement. It’s not that he doesn’t trust YOU, but he doesn’t trust the company you keep sometimes.. and he may be right. I see this guy being very intuitive, but sometimes for a man it’s hard to decipher intuition if they’re not actively doing shadow work or healing. They’ll just chalk it up to their being too emotional. Xoxo

✨✨

Thank you for reading and feel free to pick more than one group

Society of Protection (Yandere Bungo Stray Dogs x reader x original characters) (normalized yandere au)

Chapter Five

The Truth Comes Out

Prologue and oc intro

Chapter one

Chapter two

Chapter three

Chapter four

You awoke the next day in Miss Jane Austen’s luxury apartment, you felt like you just had the best sleep of your life and you dreaded going back to your cramped apartment and that pile of bricks you call a bed. You sat up in bed with a long yawn before turning you head and looking to the table and chair that sat beside the window and you saw a whole breakfast spread, eggs, fried tomato, fried mushrooms, toast, bacon, strawberries, yogurt, apples, blueberries, oranges, and so on. You stood up and walked over to it and saw a note from Miss Jane.

Please excuse my absence this morning, I have a meeting to tend to. Victor will be here at 8:30 to escort you to the Armed Detective Agency. I would advise you to be on your guard, I would be lying if I said I trusted them, because I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them which is not far at all. Do not give them information besides what you need to and even be careful what you share then. I have Gaston looking into something specifically, he may not seem it but Gaston is highly intelligent, if anyone is able to solve this certain mystery I sent him on, it’s him. Speaking of mysteries, I have one to share with you tonight.

Your host,

Jane Austen

Some points in the letter made you question some things but you didn’t have time to wonder to much on things, it was 7:50 now so you had little over a half an hour to eat and get ready. You quickly scarfed down a few things set aside for you on the table, a few strawberries, eggs, and tomatoes. You quickly ran off to shower and change and by the time you were dressed you heard a knock on the bedroom door, it was Joan the maid.

“Miss (Name), Mr. Hugo is here to escort you to the Armed Detective Agency.”

“Yes one moment, I need to grab my purse.” You said making your way out of the bathroom and into the bedroom proper, you grabbed the purse next your bed and headed out into the hallway and into the front entry where Victor stood along side Joan who held your coat. Victor looked shaken up to a degree, like he didn’t sleep well the night prior. As you took your jacket and slipped it on you asked. “How did your meeting go last night, Victor?”

“Huh?” Victor jumped at you question, almost as if he was scared of it, but then he quickly calmed himself down with deep breaths before answering. “F-fine, it went fine… perfectly fine.”

You raised an eyebrow but decided not to press any further. You two began the walk to the Armed Detective Agency in silence. Victor’s head facing up to the sky, seeming to be watching the clouds as you two walk. Then he quietly speaks, almost meekly. “I know you aren’t well off on money to hire private detectives. I’ll pay for it.” You glanced at him in pure shock as soon as he said this and you were about to speak up but he cut you off. “No buts, I am paying. It won’t even make a dent in my bank account, don’t worry, and please don’t pay me back.”

“I-I… thank you Victor… I may not be able to pay you back in cash but is there something else I can do to pay you back?”

He thought about it for a long second before looking back down at you and smiling. “Don’t give up, no matter what happens.” He reaches over to your hand and intertwines his with your own as the two of you walk and his voice is tender and soft, not meek anymore. “Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.”

—————————

Meanwhile on the other end of Yokohama two women stand on a private airport, in a small parking lot not too far off from the runways and a plane that had just landed, two cars behind them, each with a private chauffeur. One of the woman is a familiar sight, Miss Jane Austen, only now she is dressed in more outdoor clothing, still fitting for the Regency period, only now it was a green dress with frills on the skirt and she wore it with a matching shell and white hat with a green ribbon. Next to her was an unfamiliar woman with black hair tightly pulled back in a bun and silver glasses that rested on her nose, she herself wore more simple clothes but they still had a formality about them, a long black skirt that went to the knees, a tight vest, a white button up, and a green tie. The two woman stood there waiting before the unfamiliar woman spoke up. “Jane, are you sure about all this. Making this big of a move may upset Fitzgerald.”

Jane sighed and shook her head. “That man will be upset at me no matter what I do, as long as it’s away from him he’ll always be upset. Besides I know Francis and he doesn’t give his word lightly, he is going to do something,” Jane adjusted herself slightly to stand up taller, but she never broke her gaze from straight ahead, right at the door of the plane. “This will simply make sure Francis knows this isn’t some little game I’m playing to get his attention and that I’m serious about what I do. Trust me, Robbie.”

“Fine Jane, just don’t call me that around the others when they get here.” Robbie glanced down at the shorter woman as she said this to Jane. Jane had a large smile on her face and nudged Robbie with her elbow.

“Why not? We’re friends after all, and it’s just like when we were little girls back in England.” Jane giggled, covering her mouth with her gloved hand.

“It’s alright when we’re alone, but please just call me Dr. Stevenson in front of the others.”

“Alright, Dr. Stevenson .” Jane’s tone was teasing and full of giggles that only made the doctor smile and roll her eyes. At that same time the airplane door opened as soon at the ramp down was placed in front of it by the ground crew. Out stepped in a line four people, three men and a woman.

“Oh Lady Austen, how wonderful tis to see you again and in good health.” It was a young man who called out, brown hair, golden glasses, covered in freckles and a blue jacket that went down to his knees. He was an energetic young man, this voice full of life.

“Mr. Shakespeare, I see you are full of energy perusal.” Jane said as they reached the solid ground. Jane looked to the woman in the arriving ground and gave a curtsy and smile. “Baroness Orczy, you look as beautiful as ever.”

Emma Orczy was a stunning woman, she wore a long scarlet dress that went down to her feet and it was covered in frills and flowering details,on her head was a white hat with a red bow on the back. She gave Miss Jane a nod but not showing much emotion. “Lady Jane, it is nice to work with you once more.”

The Doctor was approached by the two young men, a blond dressed simply in a white button up, black pants, and a red ribbon tied around his collar. Along him stood a brunette with his hair of slicked back and dressed up with a red scarf, and red ruby earrings. The doctor smiled at the two of them. “Mr. Ibsen, Mr. Carroll. Thank you for coming all this way on such notice.”

The blond, Henrik Ibsen only nodded, not speaking a work. The brunette, Lewis Carroll reached out and shook the doctor’s hand with much enthusiasm. “It was no problem what so ever, doc. This is a good opportunity to test a few ideas I have brewing in my head.” Lewis giggled at that, almost madly and that sent shivers down the doctor’s spine.

“I-I see, that’s well and good, I-I suppose.” The doctor wasn’t a nervous woman but Lewis wasn’t the most sane and that was painfully obvious and his ability wasn’t a pleasant thing to witness. At that Miss Jane clapped her hands together and everyone fell silent and looked at the lady.

“Alright, Lewis and Henrik, you are going to go to base with the doctor and get settled. William and Emma you are to come with me, I have a package to deliver and could need some muscle.” Jane spoke, her smile never fading then… when she spoke again, it did, leaving her face with a more serious expression than anyone here has seen her with. “This is war, and we must not forget that. We must’n be toppled by the enemy, we must stand with our feet firmly in the ground and push back.”

—————————

You and Victor arrived at the agency and you were let in by a young girl in a school uniform, odd. You pushed that thought aside as you were sat down at a couch and soon an older man dressed in traditional clothes sat across you along with a younger man with black hair, and the man from the cafe, Dazai was it? Victor’s hand reminded wrapped around your own and the older man speaks not much emotion coming through with his voice. “How may we help you two today?”

“Um… well last night my apartment was broken into last night and earlier that day I had a minor run in with the Port Mafia where I work at, a flower shop. One of them bought roses from there and I think the person who broke into my apartment framed it to look like the mafia.” You paused and thought on your words, not confident to look anyone in the eyes. “My friend, Gaston, said I should come here… I don’t know what to do.”

The older man pressed his lips together as he thought before speaking after a long moment of silence. “I’m afraid we cannot do anything to help you at the present moment, if it was a harmless situation. Young lady, you are probably over thinking things.” Then he turned to Victor. “And you, are you responsible for her, is she yours?”

A shocked expression came across Victor’s face that soon turned into one of anger. “No, she’s my friend. A break in sir, that isn’t harmless. To hell with what is acceptable now day, that behavior shouldn’t be excus-“

“Young man, please watch your-“

“Tone?” Victor cut him off with a mocking voice and she should his head. “No I don’t think I will. I don’t know what I expected from this place, just thought you would be better. You disgust me, excusing behavior like this.”

“Victor, calm down please.” You squeezed Victor’s hand, trying to calm down the usual timid man. He sighed and squeezed back. You looked at the three detectives and gave an apologetic smile. “We’ll be taking our leave now, I apologize for my friend’s behavior.”

“I’m not sorry though, (Name).” Victor muttered as the two of you stood up. You lead him out with his hand still connected to yours. “Gaston will figure this mess out, I don’t know why we came here in the first place.”

Now with the two of you gone it left the three detectives alone. Dazai’s eyes were still on the door, narrowed as he spoke. “Something isn’t right with that girl. It’s the second time I have seen her with foreigners, specifically from Europe.”

The older man looked at Dazai with the same stern expression. “Do you think she is connected to The Guild?”

“Not quite, but I believe this conflict has much more players involved than we thought.” He hummed as he thought for a moment before speaking up again. “Rampo, can you look into European organizations, societies, groups, so on. Or even just the name, Gaston Leroux… something is off here.”

The detective nodded. “I am already aware that’s a European composer, never listened to his music, but I believe he is quite well know in France specifically.”

“Yes he is, and something tells me he’s much more than just his music.”

“Dazai, do you think he is an ability user?” The older name asked, a slight curiosity showing in his voice.

“Think? No, I know he has an ability.”

—————————

Miss Jane sat in the back of the car, Emma and William sitting across from her. Jane stared out the window, a blank expression on her face. They sat in silence for most of the drive, William reading a novel that be found in an archive in Verona, Emma touching up her nails. Then Emma broke the silence. “Permission to ask a question, Miss Austen?”

“Yes, Baroness.”

“What exactly happened between you and Fitzgerald?”

Jane didn’t turn head to look at Emma, she just hummed and thought for a long moment before turning to look at Jane, a blank expression on her face. “He’s stuck in the past, wanting the life we once had, but nothing can bring back the dead.”

William looked around the car and took a breath in. “What's gone, and what's past help, should be past grief.”

Emma looked at William with a confused expression. “What are you on about now, poet?”

William smiled and closed his eyes with an almost sleepy expression. “Oh nothing that your noble mind would understand. And also, I’m a thespian, not a poet.”

“Just shut up.” Emma rolled her eyes and smirked, resting her gloved hand against her cheek. “I can’t believe I married you.”

“See how she leans her cheek upon her hand. O, that I were a glove upon that hand that I might touch that cheek!” William smiles, opening his eyes to stare at his wife. “But my rose, we not legally married for the world would not allow our love. We are together only in our hearts, for even god has turned his face from us.”

“One day that will change my friends.” Jane said, looking out the window once more. “I promise it.” Then the car stopped and Jane smiled and turn to her two companions. “Seems like we have arrived to the drop off.”

There was a flash of light and sounds of screams and blood and then silence, but everyone in the car were perfectly calm. Then the driver stepped out and walked around to open the door for the passengers. “M’lady seems like things are a tad rough, are you sure?”

Jane smiled and waved him off. “It’s alright, my good sir. I will be quite alright.” She glanced over at William and Emma and waved to the two of them. “Come along now, no time like the present.”

The three stepped out, a park, but in the center of the park plaza were bodies laying unconscious, members of the Armed Detective Agency, the Port Mafia. Then in front of the unconscious bodies were a group people, walking off away from the bodies. Jane began walking toward them and called out, interrupting their conversation. “Please wait a moment.”

The six of them turned to look at the three society members. If looks could kill, the annoyed look from the southern belle woman and preacher would have murdered the three of them. The red haired man of the group, who was showing too much skin in Jane’s opinion, sighed. “So much for an easy job, looks like we left three of ‘em.”

Jane giggled and shook her head. “No, no, not at all, I’m not with the Armed Detective Agency of the Port Mafia. I have a letter to give to you all, well Fitzgerald specifically.” Jane reached into her hand bag and pulled out an envelope, and handed it off to the preacher fellow who looked it over without opening it.

“And who might you be?” The preacher said, his voice sharp. “And why should I give this to him?”

“Oh well… call me the one who got away. Trust me when I say, Fitzgerald will be wanting to reach it, call it… a declaration.” This sudden statement made the southern belle’s eye twitch and it seemed like she was ready to explode.

“Why you little! I should just turn you into ashes for that.” As she spoke a golden glow began to circle the three of them but before anything happened the blond man with the overalls, who you know as John, grabbed her hand, a panicked expression on his face. “Why did you stop me? They are poking around in places they shouldn’t.”

“Margaret! She’s the woman in the portrait that the boss keeps!” John turns to face Jane. “You’re his wife, Zeld-“

“ That is not my name anymore! ” Jane shouted out at the young man. Her face turned into a scowl, an expression of pure anger, not normal for the beautiful woman. “ My name is Jane Austen, you will do well to remember that. For I do not belong to Francis and I never will! ”

“You do not get to speak such words!” The southern belle raised her hand, raising it down to attempt to strike Jane across the face. Jane snapped her fingers and Emma took out a dagger and cut her own arm with it, from the blood emerged a red fog that engulfed the Guild members. They coughed and wheeze, but by the time the fogged cleared, Jane, Emma, and William were gone, the car t hat brought the three of them as well. The Guild members looked around in confusion but there were no society members in sight. They all looked down at the simple envelope that was given to them.

The preacher turned the envelope over in his hands, but still not opening it. “It seems we have met Mrs. Fitzgerald.”

—————————

After that meeting with the agency you were escorted to work by Victor before he ran off to tend to something, Ms. Haruka was there today. She was in the back while you were busy pruning the plants. You hummed along with a song that played on the radio while you works, it was a catchy song that played almost everyday with how popular it was.

“M’lady, good to see you again.” You heard a voice call out behind you and turned to see the blond farmer boy from a few days ago, John, you think. He coughs as he walks over to you, almost like he had just been walking through smoke. “Thought I would stop by and pick up something, more seeds and what not.”

“Oh sure, I think we have some more on the shelves.” You said smiling at him, then he started to cough again which made you worry. “Are you alright John, I can get you some water if you need it.”

“No, no, don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine, I just had a run in with some interesting folks. My boss’s wife actually.” He said waving your worry off. “Zelda Fitzgerald I think.” Your eyes widened, Fitzgerald? As in the the leader of the Guild?

“Fitzgerald? Wait does that mean you work for-“

“The Guild? I do, it’s not the most ideal work but it pays well.” John cuts you off, answering your question before you could finish it. “Anyway, I feel pretty bad for her she has these delusions that she isn’t his wife anymore, even calls herself a different name and everything. I’m trying to remember what it was…” he thinks for a moment before snapping his fingers as he remembers. “Jane Austen, that’s it.”

Your stomach sank in shock, they person your staying with was the wife of the leader of The Guild. You swallowed down the gasp you were about to let out and smile, keeping your shaking hands folded against the other. “Well that’s just silly isn’t it? Well anyway we do have some seeds restocked in the shop proper.”

“Silly, yes that’s right.” You couldn’t stop your hands from shaking and this didn’t go unnoticed by John, his eyes went from yours down to you hands and then back up you your eyes. “Do you mind showing me where the seeds are, I can’t quite remember?”

You nodded and turned to lead John into the shop, but as you did he grabbed onto your wrist and leaned over to your ear and whispered. “Your hands are shaking. You’re hiding something and I know it, trust me the truth always comes out.” You gasped and spun around and John released your hand and looked at you like nothing was wrong. “The seeds?”

“Y-yes, follow me.”

—————————

At closing, Ms. Haruka walked you to the Europeans’ apartment building and you rushed upstairs to Miss Jane’s apartment. You slammed open the door, ignoring Joan as she tried to take your coat. You rushed into the living room and saw Jane, Gaston, Victor, along with (while you didn’t know them yet), Alexandre, Dr. Stevenson, William, Emma, Henrik, and Lewis, all sitting down on the couches or standing nearby. Miss Jane stood up from her chair and walked over to you. “Miss (Name), is there something wrong.”

“T-the Guild, John, he showed up at my work.” You breathed out. “I think he knows I know you. You’re Fitzgerald’s darling, aren’t you?”

A gasp was heard all around the room and everyone stood in stunned silence. Miss Jane sighed and nodded. “I was once, yes. But that was a lifetime ago, and sometimes the past is best left forgotten and dead. I am no longer Zelda Fitzgerald.” She took your hand in her gloved hand and gave it a soft squeeze. “My name is Jane Austen, leader and founder of the Society of Protection and I think it’s about time you were told the truth to the mystery of why we are here in Yokohama.”

Refresh your wardrobe with Heaven clothing store in Trivandrum

Introduction:

As we search in the ever-changing landscape of fashion,it is easy to get lost in the sea of trends and fast-fashion. But at Heaven Clothing Store in Trivandrum,we believe that style and sustainability go hand in hand. Our mission is to provide high-quality,fashionable clothing that not only makes you look and feel great but also supports a more environmentally friendly future. As we support more sustainable future fashion clothing

Indian fashion culture

Indian fashion culture is a vibrant tapestry woven with threads of tradition, innovation, and storytelling. At the heart of Indian fashion lies the timeless art of handloom weaving. Across the length and breadth of the country, skilled artisans ply their craft, creating fabrics that are as rich in history as they are in texture. From the luxurious Banarasi silks to the earthy elegance of Khadi, each handloom creation is a testament to India's artisanal heritage, passed down through generations with love and reverence. We cannot talk about Indian fashion without mentioning legendary sarees. The sari, a beautiful piece of clothing, represents grace, tradition, and feminine charm. It comes in many different styles across India, showing the country's diverse culture. Despite changing fashion trends, the sari remains a timeless symbol.

So Heaven Clothing and the saree boutique in Trivandrum know the importance of sarees. We are passionate about sarees and dedicated to providing our customers with the finest handcrafted designs that celebrate India’s rich textile heritage. We provide a huge collection of traditional and special sarees for our customers.

Indian ethnic wear includes lots of different kinds of clothes that people wear for special occasions or just every day. For example, there's the saree, which is a long piece of cloth that women drape around themselves in different styles. Then there's the salwar kameez, which is like a long shirt paired with loose pants and a scarf. It's comfy and can be fancy too. For big celebrations like weddings, women often wear lehenga cholis, which are fancy skirts with matching tops and scarves. Men have their own traditional outfits too, like the sherwani, which is a fancy coat worn with pants, or the kurta pyjama, which is a long shirt with loose pants. These clothes come in lots of different styles and colors, showing off India's rich cultural diversity.

Indian fashion culture extends far beyond the glitz and glamor of the runway, permeating every aspect of daily life. From the ornate bridal ensembles worn during lavish weddings to the everyday attire of bustling markets and bazaars, fashion is an integral part of Indian society. It's not just about looking good; it's about self-expression, cultural identity, and storytelling through attire. In this way, Indian fashion becomes a language of its own, speaking volumes about tradition, status, and personal style.

In Kerala, people wear a mix of old and new styles. Women often wear traditional Kerala sarees, and men wear Mundus, especially for special events. They look very classy, especially when paired with fancy gold jewelry. But nowadays, Western clothes are also getting popular, especially among young people. Even with these new trends, people still love and value Kerala's cultural traditions. You can see this in the colorful and stylish clothes they wear, which show off both old and new influences. Kerala's fashion is like a mirror, showing its rich history and changing identity.

Heaven clothing store really looking forward to Kerala fashion culture; it becomes heaven as the leading Trivandrum dress shop. We set up a special collection of a mix of traditional wear and western clothing for you. However, as fashion changes, Heaven's clothing also changes.

Traditional wears of India.

India's traditional attire is a vibrant tapestry reflecting the country's diverse cultures, regions, and historical influences. The sari stands as an iconic symbol of Indian femininity, with its graceful draping styles and intricate designs varying from region to region. Meanwhile, the salwar kameez, with its combination of a long tunic, loose trousers, and scarf, holds sway in North India, offering both elegance and comfort. For festive occasions and weddings, the lehenga choli steals the spotlight, blending ornate skirts, fitted blouses, and flowing dupattas into dazzling ensembles, particularly popular in the northern states.

In the world of men's clothing, different outfits have their own special place. The sherwani is the go-to choice for fancy events, with its fancy designs and classic look. On the other hand, the kurta pajama is more relaxed but still stylish, making it good for everyday wear or less formal gatherings. In the southern parts of India, the dhoti is popular. It's simple and traditional, worn by wrapping it around the waist and legs gracefully. In Gujarat and Rajasthan, during celebrations, you'll often see women wearing the colorful ghagra choli. It has vibrant skirts, fancy tops, and flowing scarves, reflecting the festive mood.

India's clothing also varies by region. In Kerala, men wear the mundu. In Kashmir, the pheran is common. And across India, the bandhgala, or Nehru jacket, is loved for its classy look. Each outfit has a story behind it, reflecting the culture and history of its region. Together, they create a rich tapestry of colors, fabrics, and traditions that represent India's diverse people.

Heaven Clothing Store in Trivandrum has special collections of traditional wear, not just Kerala's traditional wear. All over India, traditional wear is in our collection. We also have special wedding collections for the bride and groom. You can select any Indian traditional wear from our store.

Office Outfits.

An office outfit refers to the clothes people wear to work in a professional setting. It typically includes formal or semi-formal attire such as dress shirts, trousers or skirts, blouses, suits, dresses, and appropriate footwear like dress shoes. The specific dress code may vary depending on the workplace culture and industry norms. The aim of an office outfit is to look polished, presentable, and suitable for the work environment while also reflecting personal style within professional boundaries. It's all about looking professional and appropriate for your job. For guys, this usually means shirts, pants, and maybe a tie or a suit. For ladies, it could be a blouse and skirt or pants, a dress, or even a professional-looking top with trousers. The key is to choose clothes that are neat, clean, and not too casual. You want to make a good impression and feel confident while you work.

Women's fashion is currently experiencing a dynamic shift towards sustainability, with a notable emphasis on eco-friendly materials and ethical production practices. This trend reflects a growing awareness of environmental issues and a desire for clothing choices that align with values of responsibility and stewardship. Additionally, the athleisure trend remains popular, seamlessly integrating athletic wear into everyday outfits for a comfortable yet stylish look. Oversized silhouettes are also making a statement, offering a relaxed and effortless aesthetic that prioritizes comfort without sacrificing style. Another emerging trend is romanticized cottagecore fashion, characterized by soft, feminine silhouettes, floral prints, and vintage-inspired pieces that evoke a sense of nostalgia and simplicity. Furthermore, there's a noticeable shift towards gender-neutral fashion, with styles and silhouettes designed to be inclusive and accommodating, shaped by factors such as social media, cultural influences, and sustainability concerns, providing women with a diverse range of options to express their individuality and style preferences. to individuals of all genders.

Men's fashion is currently embracing a blend of classic styles with modern twists, catering to a diverse range of tastes and preferences. Sustainable fashion is gaining traction, with an increasing number of brands offering eco-friendly materials and ethical production practices. Athleisure continues to be a prominent trend, seamlessly blending athletic wear with casual and formal attire for a versatile and comfortable look. Tailoring is also making a comeback, with a focus on well-fitted suits, jackets, and trousers that exude sophistication and style. Additionally, streetwear-inspired looks remain popular, characterized by bold graphics, oversized silhouettes, and urban influences. Men's fashion is evolving to embrace individuality and self-expression, with a focus on quality craftsmanship, versatility, and sustainability.

The "dark side" of fashion refers to the less visible but deeply concerning aspects of the industry, characterized by unethical practices and environmental harm. One prominent issue is the exploitation of workers, particularly in developing countries, where labor regulations are often lax. Garment workers endure long hours, low wages, and unsafe working conditions in factories, contributing to social injustices and human rights violations. Moreover, the fashion industry's rapid production and consumption cycle, known as fast fashion, fuels overproduction, excessive waste, and environmental degradation. Processes like dyeing fabrics and chemical treatments contribute to pollution and resource depletion, further exacerbating the industry's environmental footprint. Additionally, a lack of transparency in supply chains makes it challenging to trace the origins of materials and ensure ethical and sustainable practices throughout production. Addressing these issues requires collective action from industry stakeholders, consumers, and policymakers to promote ethical labor standards, environmental sustainability, and transparency in the fashion supply chain.

Solution for this is sustainable fashion Sustainable fashion refers to clothing, accessories, and footwear that are designed, produced, and used in ways that are environmentally friendly and socially responsible. This involves considering the environmental impact of materials and production processes, as well as promoting fair labor practices throughout the supply chain. Sustainable fashion encompasses various practices, including using organic or recycled materials, reducing waste through efficient design and production methods, and supporting ethical labor standards. Additionally, sustainable fashion encourages consumers to make mindful purchasing decisions, such as investing in high-quality, long-lasting pieces and supporting brands that prioritize sustainability. By promoting environmental stewardship and social equity, sustainable fashion aims to create a more ethical and resilient fashion industry.

MileApo in the Associated Press article on Dior's collection!! They were one of the few stars highlighted in the article.

(courtesy of AP Photo/Rafiq Maqbool)

In case you aren't familiar with how AP works, it's one of the oldest English press syndicates in the world. The stories are distributed to members, U.S. newspapers and broadcasters with the exact same text and content so dozens of press junkets run the same story with the same photos!!

What is fashion? On Dior Fall 2023's Gateway to India collection

I also wanted to take a moment to share some of the pieces from the show, which once Elle India shared them, I was like ...oh... this is actually a good collection. (Kim Jones needs to stop being allowed to dress MA)

First of all, some important context from the AP article:

Dior has had a long association with India through the Mumbai-based atelier Chanakya, which works with artisans and underprivileged women.

“I personally wanted to celebrate and showcase the incredible knowledge India offers to the international world of fashion in the field of embroidery, the mastery of the artisans who continue to work on this craft, and the commitment of Chanakya’s founders to preserving India’s history and culture, portrayed by each embroidery technique,” [Dior women's creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri] said in an Instagram post.

(courtesy of AP Photo/Rafiq Maqbool)

There's this brilliant post detailing one of the dresses, the Peacock Dress, from colonial Britain that had thousands of detailed sequins and embroidery made by expert dressmakers in India who were never given credit for their work. The style and couture expertise of these Indian dressmakers who were subjugated to colonialism was stolen and claimed as British culture.

recently [Cathy Hay] been more outspoken of the fact that British colonisation really enables these wealthy western Europeans to wear gowns that almost look impossibly beautiful, but rightful credit was of course never given to the people who made it [...] I always wonder about the craftsmen behind so much of history's most beautiful art. They're never named because the one who commissions the work, the patron, is usually given all the undue credit.

I think it's obvious I don't love (Kim Jones') Dior, but what collaborations like these do is elevate Indian fashion and couture expertise beyond the level of cultural fashion to high fashion, as something worth celebrating for its luxury and specific vision and a rightful label that was stolen from them by British colonialism.

And by using Indian models -- of a variety of skintones that reflect the diverse population of India -- and also naming and openly celebrating the atelier Chanakya and its dress makers, it gives an opportunity for Indian fashion and dressmakers to share their specific vision of fashion as ART with the world.

Is it still branded under Dior? Sure, but Dior is the vehicle that facilitates this publicity. It's so important that Chiuri highlighted Chanakya as a collaborator driving this collection with their vision. And it gives this atelier and other Indian designers an opportunity carve out names for themselves that might mean eventually their own brand is the highlight. Don't forget that Marc Jacobs led Louis Vuitton and Tom Ford led YSL and Gucci before their own brands became big enough.

This isn't a restorative justice, it doesn't right any wrongs, but a way to create opportunities for people who were always a driving force of fashion. It's economic opportunity. And it's art. So there is still a place for fashion in the world.

Check out the entire runway collection on HypeBeast here.

Now back to our regular MileApo programming.

Jessica Minh Anh reimagines Paris as the runway

The legendary fashion show producer combined runways, presentations, and campaigns into one unique production at iconic locations during Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture.

Erase any preconceived notions of conventional catwalk presentations from your mind. The eminent fashion show producer, Jessica Minh Anh, has astutely redefined the contemporary fashion showcase. She has seamlessly amalgamated traditional runways, presentations, and campaigns into an unparalleled production, and it unfolded simultaneously at multiple iconic locations throughout Paris during Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture.

Renowned for her historic fashion events at the world's most iconic monuments and sustainable energy sites, Jessica transformed Paris' landmarks on the 25th of January, 2024, into a grand fusion of fashion, architecture, culture, and artistic expression. The event followed Jessica’s Sky-High Ocean Catwalk in Rio de Janeiro just a month earlier.

This remarkable production featured models elegantly striding against the backdrop of cinematic masterpieces, including the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Pont Alexandre III, Seine River, and Place Vendome, all on a single day. This strategic feat aimed to showcase creative designs from diverse continents while offering a fresh perspective on the beloved City of Lights.

Romane Ouisse, Event & PR Manager of KEVIN.MURPHY France, enthused, "This event injected unprecedented vibrancy into the fashion industry, and we are immensely proud to have been a part of it. Jessica Minh Anh is not only a visionary with extraordinary concepts but also a masterful executor, turning the seemingly impossible into reality. She makes this collaboration even more challenging and exciting for KEVIN.MURPHY!"

The J Winter Fashion Show 2024 seamlessly blended transparent rooftop buses and iconic locations to unveil a diverse array of collections from Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. With innovative transitions reminiscent of popular social media platforms, Jessica expertly connected with the younger generation. The spectacle featured classic catwalk photography, captivating fashion films, and digital trends, engaging millions of fashion enthusiasts globally.

Vincent Durand, CEO of Bus Toqué Paris, admired the logistical precision required to orchestrate this extraordinary event, stating, "Coordinating such a multifaceted production could have been a logistical challenge, given its complexity. We were thoroughly impressed with Jessica Minh Anh's efficient execution, which brought it all to life within just six hours. We provided two luxury buses to support her production, and we found that Jessica's energy, creativity, and message perfectly aligned with our company's vision to deliver an unforgettable Parisian experience."

The fashion extravaganza showcased the enchanting creations of Chotronette, a Romanian powerhouse renowned for conjuring an imaginative universe inspired by "la vie en rose." Each ensemble was a breathtaking rendition of twentieth-century ball gowns, artfully combining tulle, florals, and vibrant color palettes to create a tapestry of art and cinematic allure.

OTKUTYR Fashion House from Saudi Arabia, a long-time collaborator in Jessica Minh Anh's Catwalk-On-Water series in Paris, captivated the audience with an exceptional pret-a-couture collection. More than a fashion brand, OTKUTYR serves as a collaborative hub committed to eco-friendly techniques such as upcycling, setting a global example for sustainable fashion practices.

The collection harmoniously merged timeless elegance with a contemporary Arab twist, challenging conventional gender norms with tailored men's style suits for women adorned with statement bows. Jessica herself graced the catwalk in a signature maroon body-hugging dress, meticulously hand-embroidered with 100 roses, accentuating the intricacies of the female form.

Making their debut in Jessica's production, Melissia brand from Kuwait presented luxurious abaya designs crafted with premium fabrics and impeccable tailoring. These designs seamlessly blended tradition with contemporary styles, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region while catering to modern tastes.

Last but certainly not least, Vietnamese luxury fashion house, Tracy Studio, unveiled a collection named "The Silk Road: From East to West." Tracy Studio's designs epitomized a captivating fusion of craftsmanship and tailoring, portraying confident and elegant women with timeless beauty transcending generations. The collection included strapless dresses, capes, unique necklines, and shoulder pairings, encapsulating the essence of femininity.

Jessica Minh Anh expressed her love for Tracy Studio, saying, "Tracy Studio's unwavering commitment to craftsmanship excellence impressed me. The brand masterfully incorporated embroidery, rhinestones, and beading to create a harmonious fashion symphony." Their modernized rendition of the Vietnamese famous Ao Dai, a sparkling blue structured dress worn by Jessica Minh Anh, not only accentuated her stunning silhouette but also embodied the spirit of cultural exchange and beauty.

Reviving the big frizzy curly fever from the 90s, KEVIN.MURPHY's artistic team was responsible for Jessica Minh Anh's charismatic coiffure. As a hair brand with a strong fashion DNA, this marked the second collaboration between KEVIN.MURPHY and Jessica Minh Anh, following the phenomenal success of J Spring Fashion Show 2022 on the Liquefied Natural Gas cruise ship Costa Toscana in Portofino, Italy.

J Winter Fashion Show 2024 received invaluable support from Paris J'Adore Hotel and IWG group's Spaces Opéra Garnier, where Jessica's dedicated team worked tirelessly around the clock to bring this unique production to life.

Jessica Minh Anh's Winter Fashion Show 2024 transcended the realm of fashion; it was a testament to creativity, diversity, and inclusivity, featuring models and designs from different ethnicities. This milestone event marked Jessica's 30th innovative production since her history-making catwalk on England's iconic London Tower Bridge in 2011.
