The young, pretty Annie Becker works as a seamstress in the Salon Charles in Vienna. Your boss, Charles Fürst, is a well-known womanizer . Nevertheless, Anni is hopelessly in love with her boss. Because of the crush on her boss, she ignores the wooing of trumpeter Axel Enders, who lives in the neighboring apartment.
Annie accidentally receives an invitation to dinner with her boss in Barock Bar . He makes no move to clear up this mistake, since he really likes Annie. Shortly afterwards, Fürst took her to a fashion show in Paris.
Annie believes she has reached the goal of her dreams. The night before the fashion show, she was given 2000 francs by a man she did not know so that she could destroy the model clothes. After the stranger has disappeared, she wants to report the matter to her boss immediately. But when she discovers her beloved in the arms of another woman in his hotel room, she ruins his entire collection, furious with jealousy.
The next day, Fürst was able to repair the clothes just in time for the mannequins to appear and earned a lot of applause from the audience.
In the end, it turns out that the destruction of the clothes was only meant to get media attention. Annie's mysterious client was the father of Charles Fürst's French business partner. Axel and Annie get married and the wedding bells ring for Charles Fürst too.
