Synopsis: Romanian born Danielle (Giulia Nahmany) is living the dream in NYC working at Beguile magazine under urban-diva fashion editor Vivian (Jane Seymour). But when a coworker steals her idea and her boyfriend, Danielle can't help but speak her mind to Vivian and loses her job. Now on the fashion blacklist with no place to go, Danielle heads home to Romania and back to the farm in Transylvania. After the initial culture shock subsides, Danielle begins to find solace with her family and friends. She runs into a charming Brit named Adrian (David Oakes), in town on a business trip, and sparks fly as he helps her discover a passion she left behind; designing her own clothing line.

and they've changed their mind.

- You do realize this

entire town was built

on our father's legacy?

He committed to these people.

- But the China Factor has

completely changed the industry.

We have to adapt.

- Say what you want about China,

but these people are

turning out a product

they actually care about.

High quality can set us apart.

If you give me the time

that we've agreed on--

- You are not helping these

people by dragging this out.

It's better to do

things swift, clean

so they can move on

with their lives.

We can talk about this

when you get home,

but right now, I have

to catch a plane.

- You can't do this

without my signature.

- The board overruled

you, airport please.

(phone buzzing)

- Hello.

- Danielle.

They are closing down the plant.

- Oh no, Sofia, I'm so sorry.

- Remember that woman

we saw Adrian with

at the restaurant?

She's his sister.

And he co-owns the

manufacturing plant with her.

- What?

- Yes, Adrian knew all this time

they were going to shut it down,

and he didn't say a thing.

- I don't believe this.

(door knocking)

- Oh, it's you.

- So you've heard the news?

- Sofia called.

- I realize it must

sound terrible.

- Yes.

- I was here to see if I

could turn the factory around.

- Oh, I guess it didn't work.

- No.

The board pulled the plug on

me, but I'm not giving up.

Look, is Danielle here?

I desperately need

to speak to her.

- She left for New York.

- New York?

- She's showing her clothing

line at Fashion Week.

- You're kidding?

That's fantastic news.

- She's very upset with you.

Why did you keep so

many secrets from her?

- I know this must

sound kind of crazy,

but all my life I've just

been the son of one of

the Forbes 500, Adrian Edwards,

but then I came here and no

one made that connection,

I was just Adrian, and

then I met Danielle,

and then I had this chance

at a real relationship.

- What other kind of

relationship is there?

- You'd be amazed at how

fascinating I suddenly

become to women when they

discover my net worth.

- Then, you don't know Danielle.

- But I do now, I'm sorry.

- You better come in.

(upbeat music)

- [Agent] Yeah, tell them

Danielle is the designer Maloo

and I'm her press agent.

Great, bye, Danielle?

- Yes?

- Okay, so, to recap.

We're gonna do a

quick meet and greet

with the press right

before the show.

- Actually, I prefer to meet

the press after the show.

I want them to see

the collection first,

if that's okay with you.

- All right, sure,

that's your call.

- Now, this is the

mystery collection

from a designer named Maloo.

- Everyone is gonna

show up tonight.

I mean I got Fashion

TV, Beguile, Mode Image,

all the major buyers

have already RSVP'd.

It's gonna be a full house.

Take a look.

- We don't know

who he or she is.

All we know is this

is the show that...

- So could you pull

past the main entrance

and over to the side?

- [Announcer] And now with

us, is fashion editor Drake.

Drake, how are you tonight?

- Pretty cool.

- [Danielle] Wow.

- Big crowd.

Come on, let's go.

(upbeat music)

- Yeah, perfect.

- Excited?

- [Danielle] Yes, very.

- Well you should be.

Oh, wait a minute.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

You'll get all the photos and

interviews after the show.

Ben, are you here?

- Right here, Danielle?

- Hi.

- Great, right this way.

- Yeah.

- All right, I'll be

up front, good luck.

- Thank you so much.

- Welcome to New

York Fashion Week.

- Are all the models here?

- Yes.

- Wow.

You're looking great.

- [Model] Hi, Danielle.

- Hey, hi.

Martina, how you feeling?

- Fine, and you?

- [Voiceover] I need the

hairspray, hairspray please.

- Hi.

- Hi Mia, that's perfect.

Hi Dixie.

- Hi Danielle.

- How are you?

- Oh, I'm fine.

- Good.

Zane.

- Okay I know, I'm going,

but, I brought her flowers.

- All right, come on, come on.

- See you later, Dix.

- Okay, bye Zane.

- [Zane] Good luck, good luck.

- Thank you, thank you.

- [Ben] All right,

we're on in 15!

(frolicking music)

- Hello darling, call me.

- Vivien.

You look amazing.

As always.

- Thank you, Drake.

- I can't believe they

sat Vivien next to

Drake of Mode Image.

- Right.

- Okay, can I have a

little bit of burst here?

And, Mia, I need a little

bit of black powder.

- Okay.

- Hmm-mm.

- This should be interesting.

- Hmm.

- Okay, I can't find this

designer anywhere in here.

- No one has seen her.

It's got to be a marketing thing

- Did Maloo preview

the collection for you?

- No.

To you?

- No.

- Ready, Danielle?

- Good luck, you look perfect.

(upbeat music)

- Okay, Maloo, let's

see what you've got.

- [Danielle] Perfect.

- [Ben] She's fine, she's fine?

- [Danielle] Yeah.

- Good, good.

And go.

(upbeat music)

- Ssshht, ssshht!

- [Ben] Go.

- [Dixie] It's broken.

- What's wrong, the belt?

- [Dixie] Yeah.

(upbeat music)

- [Ben] Come on, darling.

(upbeat music)

- I like that.

- [Dixie] It's hanging down.

- Yeah, that's fine,

that's fine, just go,

yeah, yeah, just go.

- [Ben] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Okay, go, go, go.

(upbeat music)

- Oh Danielle is a genius!

- Wow.

- This is my dress,

this is my dress!

(speaking foreign language)

(chattering)

- And go, go.

- [Dixie] Oh my God,

Danielle, the skirt!

- Don't panic, I will fix it.

- [Dixie] Ah, it's stuck.

- [Ben] Come on,

come on, come on.

- [Dixie] Oh my

God, I have to go!

- Dixie, is she coming?

- Yeah, she's

ready, she's ready.

- [Ben] Come on Dixie.

- That one.

(upbeat music)

(applauding)

(serene music)

(applauding)

- Danielle is Maloo?

- Yeah.

- I think I'm gonna be sick.

(serene music)

(applauding)

- [Drake] Wow Vivien, she

is wonderful isn't she?

(cheering)

(serene music)

(applauding)

(bottle popping)

(cheering)

- [Back Model] Cheers!

(applauding)

(chattering)

- Cheers.

- Oh my God!

That was so awesome!

(cheering)

- I have you to thank.

You were the one

that made it happen.

- No!

You did!

Look, I know you're busy,

I'll see you out there okay?

- Absolutely.

(cheering)

- Claire.

- You were great.

Beautiful, thank you.

- Look at you.

The toast of the town.

- Hi, Lance.

- Congratulations.

You did it.

And you should have seen

the look on Vivien's face.

I mean, it was priceless.

So, how is the sweet

taste of revenge?

- That wasn't my intention.

- Doesn't matter.

You stunned her and the

entire fashion world.

And I'm proud of you, kiddo.

- Thanks.

- I missed you.

- Was that before or

after the show was a hit?

- Okay, I deserve that.

Let's get a quiet

dinner somewhere.

Somewhere nice and romantic.

I can eat crow and

apologize properly.

- Apology accepted,

but I'm afraid

I'm not available tonight.

- Excuse me, Danielle.

I need you for the

step and repeat.

The press is going

through the roof,

they loved your show.

You're gonna change?

- Oh, of course.

- [Agent] Okay.

- Yes.

- So, tomorrow night maybe?

- Sorry Lance, bye.

(cheerful music)
