Abigail had just finished organizing the clothes when she promptly listed them on the shopping app and claimed they were discounted costumes from a particular historical era.
As soon as word got out, screenshots began circulating on Instagram.
'Is Alana really this cutthroat? Selling off all those leftover costumes from the set at rock-bottom prices! I'm definitely snagging one to see if they're really as shoddy as the production team says.'
'Weren't L.Moon's designs always top-notch? Remember those costumes they did for that chaotic era drama a few years back? They were borrowed by tons of other productions and still looked fresh. This production team is clearly trying to tarnish L.Moon's reputation, aren't they?'
'Let's see if there's any truth to it once we get our hands on them.'
Within an hour, a local fashion influencer had purchased some of the clothes and started a live stream.
Abigail also tuned in. She recognized the influencer as a loyal supporter of Fairy Meadow, who was known for recommending affordable outfits from the brand that were popular among the working class.
"Even though these aren't historical costumes since Fairy Meadow has always had my back, I grabbed a piece from the same delivery today to see if L.Moon is up to something shady or if the 'Red Beauty' production team is just being clueless," the influencer announced to her audience.
The incident quickly gained momentum, and she was the first to provide a review. Thus, attracting a flood of viewers.
Word spread like wildfire, and in less than ten minutes, the livestream had already attracted hundreds of thousands of viewers.
This live streamer was quite talented. She had a background in the fashion industry, having worked as a fashion assistant, operated sewing machines, conducted quality inspections, managed warehouses, and more. Later, with the rise of online influence, she seized the opportunity to transition from running an online store to becoming a fashion influencer. Her journey was truly astounding.
"This costume is a common maidservant's attire. The outer layer is made of silk cotton, which you might not be familiar with, but it's different from regular cotton. It's soft and smooth, has good moisture absorption, and feels exceptionally comfortable. As for the price per unit, you can look it up," she explained slowly.
She even brought the clothes closer to the camera to give everyone a better look.
'Even maidservant costumes are made with such high-quality fabric. The protagonist probably doesn't even know what good fabric feels like. This is considered subpar? Are other production crews scavenging clothes from dumpsters?'
'I always felt like "Red Beauty" was overhyped. Sure, L.Moon went off the rails a bit without Alana, but apart from some delays, I haven't heard about clothing quality issues, have you?'
'The drama crew of 'Red Beauty' is just disgusting. I'm done with their shows. If they dare to release anything else, I'll boycott it. I don't care how good it is, I'll give it a one-star rating. That team is just too vile.'
The next day, more live streamers arrived to evaluate.
