​Is this an interesting book idea?

I wrote this a few weeks ago and wanted someone’s opinion. It’s written in a nation where fashion and elegance is the backbone of society. Fashion houses are extremely famous and modeling is the most sought after job.

Is this idea interesting enough to write a novel about?

Panache lived in Tonpa her entire life, working as young as 13 for her father’s sewing machine restoration company. Her father, Pin’galla, worked hard but only ever made enough to feed himself and Panache. They lived together in the boiler district (Tonpa) of a major city. Panache always had a tasteful eye. After leaving her fathers company, she signed a job as a security detail for Tonpa’s governing house. She’d watch outside the manor as brilliant noblewomen walked past her and into the manor. Years later, panache had gotten her own apartment on the westside, her father had died, and she met a man. The man worked in the Capitoline borders office. He loved her. She gave birth to Patuarus when she was just 23. Lobelle, her husband, was promoted in the office and sent into the Capitol to work. However, due to the strict border guidelines, Panache and Patuarus were not allowed migration into the Capitol. The rebellious group titled “MOP” was active, making the Capitol anxious and therefore only allowing 50 migrations per year. The office would receive nearly 700k applications that year. Panache raised Patuarus by herself, showing her how to use a sewing machine by the age of 6. Patu grew up in the world of fashion, as Panache was able to curate cheap garments and make them into beautiful gowns that appeared to be luxurious. By the time Patu was 12, Lobelle had admitted Panache and Patu out of the 25 admitted that year. When in the Capitol, Patu watched the show and the elegance of the fashion and grew an immense desire to model. Panache watched her catwalk, critiquing it and training her. Patu signed to a modeling agency at the age of 14. By then, she had become a national treasure. Wearing prices by the highest fashion houses and walking on the most notorious runways. At just 16, she was awarded a spot in the Capitoline Closette, the biggest show in the nation. The critics of the Capitol did not like her because she was not of noble blood.
