“Wow, isn’t that Xylon?” Niamh suddenly gasped.

Xylon was a famous model who had risen from obscurity. Before his fame, he would create his own high-fashion outfits from tree branches, plastic sheets, and other found materials, film himself walking runways in hallways and fields, and upload the videos online. He had become a viral sensation, famous not just nationally but internationally.

Niamh had seen his shows; he could flawlessly model both menswear and womenswear with no sense of incongruity.
