Material Girl - Season 1

Drama about dreams, love, clothes and how we all use them to run away from who we are and towards who we should be. It's about passion, friendships, sex and shoes. It's Paris Fashion Week and Ali Redcliffe has a huge flare-up with her boss, leading fashion designer, Davina Bailey. Back in London, the renowned Marco Keriliak offers Ali the chance of a lifetime: to set up her own label. But her friends all tell her he's a nightmare. Probably not the ideal time to take a chance on love with new man Chris.

Will Ali ever be able to trust the two men in her life? Chris, who has been receiving mysterious texts in the middle of the night? Or Marco, who has agreed a deal with a new backer, testing Ali's creative integrity to the max? As for Davina, she is on a mission to close them down...

Ali's model friend Lydia is having a mid-life crisis a decade early, but how much time has Ali got for her friend with the first mass dress order in and Fashion Week round the corner? Especially when she is having to keep an eye on both Marco's shady dealings and boyfriend Chris's new-found interest in modelling...

Ali and Alex fall out when she discovers he's responsible for her collection going missing. How could he do it - especially when Jed, the man who broke her heart, is back in town? Without Alex to guide her, Ali's in danger of making a fool of herself, and losing Chris in the process.

It's Ali's big day, as she has her first show at Fashion Week. The whole team's on hand to get the collection onto the catwalk, but then Ali's estranged mum turns up, Davina tries to sabotage the show and Ali goes into meltdown. Marco saves the day, bringing them closer together. That is until Ali sees Marco in a clinch with another woman.

With Davina having the London press eating out of her hand, Marco whisks Ali off to Paris to sell the collection, and maybe some romance. But with Chris's engagement ring on Ali's finger, Marco's plans are thwarted and the trip ends in disaster. Will Marco make the ultimate sacrifice and sell out to Davina? And which man does Ali really want?
