Very much like Nana, only this series revolves around fashion and modeling. It's nice to see that each character is given their own distinct personalities and stories to understand them. I would have liked it better if Caroline was developed more. I kind of felt like she was lacking in character more than the others. True, (in my opinion) her climax point was when she broke free from feeling obligated to her mother but that was pretty much it. Dialogues were bland at some point of the series making it a bit slow-paced and a struggle to watch. Otherwise, this genre is a good break from the usual action-packed animes. :)
