The award ceremony was held at the InterContinental Hotel.
Amelia Clarke arrived half an hour early in an evening gown she designed herself, while Owen Moreland mentioned he had some matters to attend to and would arrive later.
In addition to designers, judges, organizers, and investors, there were also numerous reporters from the fashion media and some well-known fashion figures within the circle.
There were ushers responsible for guiding everyone to their seats, and Amelia's seat was next to Jocelyn Griffin.
To Amelia's other side, quite unfortunately, was Lea Nelson.
"Amelia," said Jocelyn Griffin, greeting Amelia Clarke with a full-faced smile.
Amelia Clarke responded with a smile, "Ms. Griffin."
A colder, more distant form of address.
Jocelyn Griffin, however, was not the least bit surprised and continued to smile warmly, her eyes brimming with gentle laughter.
