Han Yuzhi, you say obsession

Who is Karl Lagerfeld?

The art director of Chanel, the "Caesar in the fashion industry" who occupies the commanding heights of the fashion circle, or the old man with white hair and long braids who is always named "representative of the contemporary Renaissance" by the media...

But to An Xiuen, he is not just the "Lafayette" deified by the outside world.

In Paris, self-proclaimed fashion abounds, of which roughly 50% want to be fashion designers.As a matter of course, there are countless so-called fashion design competitions here every year, and each one is more powerful than the other, and it seems that each big name is better than the other.From the time when An Xiuen started studying fashion design in Paris to when she actually entered university, she has already participated in more than 20 competitions, and the awards she got, big and small, filled a closet at home.

But in fact, if she did it again, she would never spend so much time on these messy games.

In the current fashion circle, it is no longer possible to be like the 60s and [-]s of last century, when gifted teenagers met experienced and prestigious teachers by chance and were accepted as assistants or apprentices by them, and then they developed into a regular fashion step by step. For the world's top designers, this is probably a scene that can only appear in the longing minds of young people who have just stepped into this circle.

In the current situation, old brands, such as Chanel, LouisVuitton, Dior, etc. firmly occupy the top position, and there is no tendency to make concessions.The small brands below are fighting fiercely, and the people on the top of the fashion week change batch after batch every year.These shallow brands do not have enough talents and works to support them, so it is normal to develop outward.

In this way, setting up a fashion design competition to attract fresh blood is the best way.

And those designers who are really proud will not try to choose their future successors in a simple competition.Otherwise, even if it is a world-class fashion design competition, it never says which designer the winner can become a disciple of. At most, it is just a one-year internship in a certain brand. As for whether to enter to study design or do odd jobs, who cares? ?

After participating in the competition, An Xiuen received invitations from more than one designer to be his disciples.But she only chose one, and she withdrew after three months and never accepted any invitation again.It's not that she has great ambitions, dreaming of those top fashion brands, but that An Xiuen's goal has been very clear from the very beginning, she wants to become a designer that people all over the world can name, what she has to learn It is the deep reason why top fashion brands can stand still.

Some people don't like old brands, thinking they rely on the old to sell the old, and they are too old-fashioned and domineering, but it is undeniable that these brands have been able to gallop in the fashion industry for so long, and they definitely have their own characteristics. have a preference.

At that time, An Xiuen, who was only 20 years old, took a fancy to not only Givenchy, but also Chanel.

Givenchy: simplicity, elegance, pleasure.

Chanel: Elegant, refined and comfortable.

There may be countless differences between them, but the only thing in common is what An Xiuen yearns for and is good at - low-key luxury.

At that time, An Xiuen was just a student who had not yet graduated. How could she have so many opportunities to meet designers of top brands? The reason why she was accepted as a disciple by Ricardo Tisci was because she spent three months wandering around the door of Givenchy. Every day I bring the works I designed, as long as I see him and actively come to recommend myself, I will be successful.You know, during that time she knew Ricardo's schedule better than he himself.

As for Karl Lagerfeld, it does sound a bit dramatic, but in fact, she had seen him before she saw Ricardo Tisci, and of course it didn't mean that she was blocking the door every day like Givenchy.At the end of her freshman year, just in time for the centennial anniversary of their school, as one of the best fashion design universities in the world, they invited Karl Lagerfeld as their two-hour professional lecturer. Only a few lucky ones are selected in each grade, and An Xiuen is one of them.

She will always remember what Karl Lagerfeld said when he saw the design of her final assignment:

"I think I should like your work more after ten years."

"why?"

"Your design is indeed very suitable for the part that the public desires and likes. In fact, their color matching and angle selection design are brilliant enough, but..." Karl Lagerfeld took off his sunglasses, and he discussed them on an equal footing Although her face is still serious, she said, "Why do designers cater to the public? Indeed, the clothes we design are for everyone to like, but this is not the most important thing you should pay attention to." on the one hand."

"In my opinion, the name of the designer is the creator of fashion, not the exhibition. We can start from the basis of people's aesthetics, but that is the basis, which is hidden deep underground. What others can see We have to use our own understanding and methods to make the word 'fashion' conform to its true meaning, and always walk ahead of people's desires and in the middle of the development of the times."

From his words, she could hear the idea that this old man who can be called a miracle adheres to: Chanel is pursuing a mature design goal that can control fashion in the palm of his hand. Obviously, after all these years, he will This kind of persistence is carried out very well.

However, it doesn't mean she agrees.

Chanel's success is indeed coveted, but An Xiuen feels that if she is dedicated to pursuing the first step, it will be difficult to grasp her original intention and style.She is not like Karl Lagerfeld, he is bold, proud, talented, he can balance the past, present, and future well, but she can't.

Ivaie Ann is not a genius, not now, and it is naturally impossible for her to understand the meaning of life and evolve in the future, no matter how much the outside world praises her, from the beginning to the end, she has been clearly aware of this fact in her heart.

Therefore, the young woman did not hesitate to choose Givenchy, a brand that is not as good as Chanel but has the slightest potential for development.

Up to now, she can also say that she has never regretted it.However, after seeing this signature, An Xiuen still couldn't help feeling emotional. Although she didn't agree with what Karl Lagerfeld said to her at the beginning, that statement was the realm that every designer dreams of. If you don't, it must be a lie.

Perhaps, she looked at the invitation card in her hand, and the signature on the bottom was exactly the same as the signature on the design book she still kept. Her performance this time was enough for this legendary senior to experience her answer five years in advance. ? ?

-------------------

On October 10st, the day before Chanel's Paris Fashion Week, a piece of news shocked the entire fashion industry. Chanel, which always distributes invitation cards and admission tickets a week in advance, unexpectedly sent out the last A VIP invitation card is still in the name of Karl Lagerfeld, the fashion emperor, and the surprising invitee is the talented girl who just shocked the world three days ago-IvaieAnn.

People can't help but guess what secrets there are. Today's Paris Fashion Week show is destined to have more looking and anticipating eyes than ever before.

At the same time, Quan Zhilong, who had just arrived in Bangkok, saw the text message sent by Ahn Soo Eun, and immediately put on a big smile on his expressionless face hidden under the large black sunglasses, which made fans around to pick him up I couldn't help but see red stars, and my screams became louder than once, and I was taken aback by Shengli, who was going to say hello to this rare group of fans in Southeast Asia.

"Wow~" Shengli took a few steps back and sighed softly, "Fans really are, it's a pity that this high-pitched voice doesn't sing."

The sun next to Quan Zhilong smiled helplessly, leaned close to Quan Zhilong, glanced at his rippling smile under the sunglasses, and poked him secretly.

"Zhilong, is it Xiu Enxi?"

They don't quite know what's going on between the two of them. Compared to the past when Quan Zhilong was in love and had a meal, everyone would know about it. Now he is so low-key and unlike him.

"Enen." Quan Zhilong stroked his eyes, raised his head and showed him a bright smile,

Hearing another burst of screams around him, Sun turned his head and covered his face with a helpless smile: Yaxi, I was wrong, this is not low-key, it is obvious that it has grown up and used a more defenseless method to show off. Love it.

On the other hand, Dacheng, who watched the whole scene silently, waved his hands at the loudest fans on both sides: Poor VIPs, if they knew the real reason why Brother Zhilong laughed, they would definitely cry. . .

As soon as the five of them walked out of the airport and got into the nanny car, Quan Zhilong couldn't wait to press An Xiuen's number. Because of the signal problem of international calls, he had to call three times before getting through.

"Hello~" An Xiuen's familiar and clear voice came from the phone, Quan Zhilong turned around holding the phone and moved to the back of the eyes of everyone sneaking over, and then said softly: "Xiuen, I really want to you."

Cut, do you think we can't hear you like this!The four members plus the driver in front, and the manager's assistant, a total of seven people complained from the bottom of their hearts.Seungri, who had been sitting at the back from the beginning, tilted his head indistinctly, and made a "shh" gesture to TOP, who was also glancing this way with great interest.

"Ah, I'm in Thailand now, Bangkok, I just got off the plane, so tired~" Quan Zhilong said coquettishly.

An Xiuen couldn't help laughing over there, originally because of Karl Lagerfeld's distracted thoughts, she also came back, and put the invitation card aside: "I thought our G-Dragon would enjoy the stage very much." , still feel tired?"

Quan Zhilong pursed his mouth: "I'm so tired if I can't see Xiu En."

"Pfft," An Xiuen laughed out loud, "Yeah, we Zhilong are really masters. How about it? Do you need me to help you book a ticket to Paris?"

"Why doesn't Xiu En come to my concert? Come on, come on, the fashion show is over, isn't it?" Quan Zhilong said plaintively while flipping his bangs on his head.

"Who said that?" An Xiuen shifted her gaze to the cards on the table, and said with a chuckle, "It's not over yet."

"Anymore?"

"Well, Chanel tomorrow," she raised her eyebrows at the phone, "but our King of Fashion personally invited you? Are you jealous of me? A loyal fan of Chanel?"

Anyway, she is also the designer of Givenchy. Mr. Quan, who bears the name of her boyfriend, actually showed off ChromeHearts and Chanel in the MV. I feel uncomfortable after thinking about it~

"Ah~ In fact, I'm more jealous of Karl Lagerfeld." Quan Zhilong's voice with a smile didn't sound like the soft feeling just now, but with a bit of temptation: "I also want to walk with the beautiful Miss Ivaie Ann." It’s a pity that they don’t invite me, so what should I do?” At the end, he couldn’t help showing a little jealousy, he still remembered Sidney and IvaieAnn who made a stunning appearance at the fashion show, really, how could that kid compare He is cool and domineering.

"No way ~ Ms. IvaieAnn said that she won't accept invitations without sincerity." An Xiuen raised her head and said, sitting on the seat and stretching herself, thinking that she finally got some free time and then went to prepare for tomorrow I couldn't help but feel a sense of irritability. After all, this time she is not a designer, but a guest. If she is simply changed from the limelight, where will Givenchy lose face?It doesn't matter if it's too bright, she's not the master... Yaxi, just thinking about it gives me a headache.

"When will your tour end?"

Quan Zhilong felt the exhaustion in her words, and couldn't help but slow down his tone: "I'm afraid it will take until next year to talk about everything. Xiuen, are you tired?"

An Xiuen rubbed her brows: "It's okay, it will be fine in a while." She hesitated for a moment: "I sent you something, and my address is YG, take a look and check carefully." After finishing speaking, she covered up He casually laughed a few words and hung up the phone.

"Hey, hey!" Quan Zhilong was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise and doubt: "Eh? Wait a minute, Xiuen, what is it? Don't whet your appetite, it's really..."

But Chanel?Ah~ Why is his woman so good~ Speaking of which, what exactly did Xiuen send him?Quan Zhilong looked at the time on his phone and seriously considered the possibility of flying back to South Korea now and back again.

Hearing his team captain's unique milk voice and obviously bright and rippling smile, Shengli shrugged his shoulders and shrank his head back, covering his mouth and snickering, suddenly his hands stopped, and when he turned his head, big brother TOP abducted him , asked: "Victory, what are you laughing at?"

Seeing his handsome brother with blinking eyes and an expression of "I'm so curious", Shengli rushed forward and covered his mouth, and looked anxiously at the captain who was looking at the phone behind him, seeing that he didn't seem to When he found out, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother TOP, keep your voice down, I will die a miserable death if Brother Zhilong finds out!" Victory Cat whispered in his ear.

"Oh," TOP patted him on the shoulder calmly and reliably: "You don't have to worry about that."

"Eh?" Shengli was stunned, blinked his eyes and asked expectantly: "Brother TOP, do you mean to cover me?"

Although this brother usually doesn't seem to be very lethal, but once he gets serious, he is really something that even Brother Zhilong should avoid.

"No," TOP replied with a smile, and the smile on his face "what are you talking about, silly boy" made him excited again, why did he suddenly feel the cold on the back of his neck?

"Zhilong has already discovered it." The eldest brother calmly pointed behind him.

"MO?!!" Shengli screamed and turned his head. Sure enough, his baby-faced captain smiled very kindly, and stared straight at him with cold brown eyes.

"Victory~" Quan Zhilong said softly.

"Nei...brother." With a dry smile, Shengli moved back again and again.

"Our youngest's FanService has always been doing a good job. This time I will entrust you with the task of mobilizing the atmosphere in Bangkok. Don't let the hyungs down, you know." He stretched out a hand to caress the victorious trembling seemingly tenderly With Weiwei's head, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Yes, yes." Shengli immediately agreed, with a full face in his heart.

Brother Zhilong, this is not Japan, not Korea, not China, and not the United States. In a country like this where he can’t speak the local language, and people who speak English may not understand it, and don’t even know a little about the customs, what are you doing? Forcing him to show off his rhythm~

Heh heh, I guarantee that you will definitely occupy the headlines in the fan circle after this concert, don’t thank me too much, Shengli~

A certain team leader silently outlined a plan called "Let the youngest deeply understand the deep meaning of NOZUONODIE" in his heart.
