coruscate

Each sequin is hand sewn with intricate care and detail. He stares at the glittery creation that has already taken weeks of his life. This dress is the one. As he thoughtfully runs his thin, nimble fingers through the plush silk, he takes heed of how the fabric drapes on the model's body. She's grown bored and is looking out the window wishing to be at the restaurant across the street so she can give up her dietary restrictions. But the temptation is too great. The popularity contest, the free gifts, the beautiful clothes. His beautiful clothes and craftsmanship. This is how she affords his price, his innovation. As she looks down at the dress, its sparkle twinkles in her eyes.
