Ruby leaves her remote farm for the big city, dreaming of becoming a fashion designer. Yet due to her accent, plain clothes and humble origins, she becomes the laughingstock at an elite fashion academy. Vanessa, the academy’s glamorous star born into the spotlight, looks down on her deeply and treats every competition as her exclusive runway. At first, Ruby is stuck doing menial odd jobs, and even her designs are plagiarized by others. Blessed with an innate sense of color and an intuitive feel for fabric, she creates stunning works time and again against all odds. As the grand competition draws near, she grows into Vanessa’s most feared rival, quietly catching the eye of mysterious investors and top luxury brands. On the final runway, Ruby stuns the audience with a collection inspired by her farm hometown and her mother’s old apron. She publicly presents proof of Vanessa’s long history of stealing others’ creative designs. In that moment, the country girl once mocked as rustic shines with talent and courage, emerging as the brightest new star in the entire city.
