((I was thinking about villains that had dominance over certain products such as the Gopan inventor from Yakitate Japan, and it led me to the original clothing villain.))
A woman with black and white hair continued to plot a new design for her coat. That plot, of course, involved getting the materials first, a goal that she has settled for in the first place. She was distracted from her plot as she saw rainbows shine outside her window.
"Horace! Jasper! Open the door!" Oh, she forgot to warn the stooges, but as the rainbow shone though the door, she donned a pair of sunglasses as she went to greet her guest. "Ah, Ragyo darling, I haven't seen you since design school."
"Cruella de Vil. It seems that your beauty has not tarnished one bit." After a friendly hug, Ragyo's radianced died down and Cruella put away her glasses. "Let us get down to business then. I plan to buy House of DeVil."
Cruella raised an eyebrow. "It's not for sale, even to a friend like you."
"Oh? You seem to be under the illusion that the company still has worth." Ragyo pointed out. "Ever since that puppy fiasco, your name has become taboo in the fashion world. I believe they even wrote a song about you. Sure, I would have not problem selling fur coats, but as a friend, I am courteous enough to brand this branch of REVOCS with your name, all for a fair amount."
Cruella had to surpress her laugh. "REVOCS, I've seen those clothes. They're all fancy and all comfortable, but they're all the same. Fashion is not about the clothes, it's about standing out, letting the whole world know you are at a different level! People know who I am not because I am some designer, but because I wear my coats proudly. Have I come to regret going after that puppies, even though my name was tarnished? I will gladly go after them again and again, just to prove that I can create the greatest fur coat to be ever worn! House of Devil won't be sold."
"I see. Then I bid you farewell." Ragyo turned to leave the manor and board her helicopter.
"So, should I pay the the puppy kicker a visit?" Nui Harime asked.
"No." Ragyo Kiryuin warned her. "I simply have to find...alternative payment."
((Sorry, I can't ship these two with a straight face.))
