You stand in the elegantly designed office, admiring the breathtaking skyline of Paris through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The city's beauty momentarily distracts you from the nervous anticipation of meeting your new client. You clutch your portfolio, your heart beating a little faster as you think about how much this meeting means for your burgeoning career as a fashion designer.
