The Happy Life of a Duchess

Mrs. Daumier is really talented. This quality has not been discovered before, but now it is like uncovering gold and silver from the dust, and the essence of pearls is revealed.

After listening to her narration for nearly an hour, Adele had to admit that she had already been amazed by her amazing creativity.

After Adele gave an introduction, she had already grasped the essence.

When other people were still making clothes called "good-looking" and "fashionable", she had learned to express her own artistic concept through her works without any teacher and fit the clothes of the wearer. idea concept.

In a way, she has been ahead of many, many others.

And I have learned to learn as much as possible by using the few resources at hand, and to achieve a higher level of expression as much as possible.

Her clothes are more like an expression of a concept, her understanding and deepest narration of fashion.

This is the essential quality and ability of a top and excellent designer.

And this wife who was still worried about her son and her own life not long ago, and could only stop some cars and horses on the street to seek opportunities, has undergone an amazing transformation in a very short period of time.

She became a better independent designer.

And not just a tailor, just someone who copied popular, mass-produced cheap embroidered hats and handkerchiefs.

Madame Daumier's eyes seemed to light up as she spoke of her designs and showed her certain constructions and arrangements of dresses.

Adele is deeply impressed by this seriousness and professionalism. She doesn't know how to make clothes, and she can only judge whether the clothes are excellent or whether they have the potential to be popular. What she is best at is to consider a certain dress Is it suitable for you.

But she is also happy for this wife who was once struggling on the poverty line. She firmly used her talent, hard work and strength to grasp the opportunity she was able to seize when Adele gave her a chance. everything of.

"you are excellent."

Adele took her hand seriously.

Madame Daumier was taken aback at first, but then she couldn't help the tears in her eyes.

As the person involved, only she knows in her heart how much effort and difficulty it took to be able to have the freedom and ability she has today.

She was not born with such excellent embroidery skills, nor could she design a set of clothes casually. It was a practice she had practiced in the boudoir for a long time before she got married. In the difficult predicament of taking care of his son, he still pursues beauty and keeps practicing hard.

Keep watching, keep practicing, keep studying... After countless hardships and struggles, she has laid a solid foundation and foundation, but if there is no first time to make everything from scratch, there is no Adai Maybe she will never have such an opportunity in her life, and she will only waste or even delay her son's future.

After all, whether or not one can survive is a question, not to mention jobs and promotions after having enough food and clothing.

"No, without you..."

Mrs. Daumier quietly wiped the corners of her eyes, and Adele looked as usual with a peaceful smile, as if she didn't see it.

After Mrs. Daumier calmed down, Adele smiled and continued talking to her.

"You are really talented. I feel a kind of... aura from your design? Your work has the kind of deep connotation that other designers have not shown. It is different from simple good-looking, and the comfort you pursue Ideas such as speed, conceptual expression, and sophistication fit me very well.”

"After seeing these today, I am more sure of my thoughts."

"It's like this," Adele explained with a smile, "I hope to establish a brand after the cloth shop is successful. I will provide you with funds, and I am willing to name this store after you."

Madame Daumier was stunned, and she did not speak for a long time.

"..."

In the silence, Adele always maintained a decent smile.

Afterwards, Madame Daumier seemed to finally come to her senses, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Is it like the Suss store?"

she asked tentatively.

"If you think that having a storefront is more enough to build up the brand's reputation, then I solemnly tell you that it is so."

Adele also responded with a smile, already having a plan in mind.

She didn't come up with the idea suddenly. Since she planned to make high-tech fabrics, she wanted to create a finishing fashion production line covering from raw materials to finished clothes.

But this didn't happen overnight, and she only made some plans in her heart at first.

But seeing Mrs. Daumier's performance, she thought she shouldn't miss such a good opportunity.

Mrs. Daumier's growth is faster than she imagined. She is the person she can find that best meets her goals. She also knows how powerful women's purchasing power is. This is a huge piece of land that is not too much Cake touched by people—

So why can't she do it?

"You mean, do you want to invest in me?" Madame Daumier smiled.

"However, this is what you have always done, and I am very happy to be recognized by you again."

"What I want to tell you is, of course, I would very much like to."

"I believe that it is the expectation of all tailors to have a store like the Suss store. Compared with tailors, as a designer, I have some new expectations."

"Of course I'd be too happy to sleep if my brand was successful."

Mrs. Daumier originally signed the Juradi family, so that there is no concept of serving others or even creating her own brand.

But right now, Adele offered to use the method of "investment", which means that she acquiesced in taking on other orders. Although she also used the name of Duke Juradi's residence, Mrs. Daumier thought that there is nothing more important than this. ok.

Madame Daumier was herself a widow with a teenage son.

She knows too well that no matter where such a woman is, it is not easy to live a good life. She didn't see that even in her hometown, with her husband's relatives, her life was still miserable, and her relatives gave her some ideas. Stolen the house.

Unlike other men's and women's designers, Madame Daumier has little roots in Paris.

It is very difficult for her to become famous in a short time and make herself a brand.

But if he could be under the protection of Juradi, everything would be very different, at least to a certain extent, it would be much easier.

Ms. Adele also expressed that she can support her and invest in her.

Since the two parties have related interests, Miss Adele will surely not be stingy in promoting her reputation.

Madame Daumier now wished very much to have a studio-like place of her own, a suitable little dress-making house, two or three loyal apprentices and assistants, and then she could make clothes as much as she wanted.

But I still have my own son, but now that I have sent him to boarding school, the pressure of raising children, especially in daily life, has really eased a lot.

Mrs. Daumier was a little unaccustomed at the beginning, but her son was very sensible, and she quickly threw herself into the work and tasks assigned by Adele, busy with fabrics, designing and making clothes. There is no time to think about the messy stuff.

Moreover, the sense of accomplishment is extraordinary to be able to complete a certain job by yourself and be able to engage in a career you love.

Mrs. Daumier herself felt that the smiles on her face had increased a lot, and her state of mind had also changed. She had changed to a more open side, and she no longer had to worry about a bit of full bread all day long.

"I see, thank you for your generosity."

Adele talked to Mrs. Daumier for a while, but because this matter was not in a hurry, she just made a sudden decision to put the burden on her. The plan was not yet formed, so naturally It's not good to say too much, it's not good to write a bad check.

Adele finally took care of the affairs of the manor, as well as the affairs of the cloth workshop and newspapers. The beginning of such a busy summer was finally over.

The next day, Adele went to the club where she met at the invitation of her friend Morgana, who was actually her fiancé, Mr. Duval.

It was an elegant unisex club.

Originally, she also wanted to make an appointment at the coffee shop, but after thinking about it, Morgana simply put forward a new request because she was curious about the club.

For his daughter, Mr. Duval is still very tolerant.

When Adele arrived, Mr. Duval and Morgana were already waiting in the box.

The two sides chatted for a while, knowing that she was anxious, Mr. Duval didn't hesitate, and took it directly, planning to go to the first manor to have a look.

Morgana and Adele said with a smile that there was not much room for Mr. Duval to intervene, but seeing his gentle smile, one could tell that he was in a good mood right now.

Although some people saw it as a bit of a joke, everyone knows that Adele and Morgana have a good relationship. Adele is a very popular noble lady. Miss Fay Barry, Adele was probably the kind of celebrity anyone could talk to, and everyone would love to hang out with.

However, her two most famous friends were Morgana and Leopoldina, especially Leopoldina Hugo.Counting the others, they are probably with friends of the same status like Mrs. Costa and others.

"Hey, have you heard?" Morgana tugged on Adele's cuff.

"What's wrong?" Adele opened the fan, covered her mouth slightly, and fanned again.

Today's weather is much better than before.

I don’t know if Mr. Duval chose it on purpose, or God is more generous. He knew that Adele was going to go out, so he gave a relatively less hot and sunny day. Ever since Adele saw the weather, the smile on her face has never been less Pass.

Looking up, the sky is a beautiful and soothing blue, a few white clouds like silk cloth are clustered together, floating lazily, and occasionally there is a breeze, which is really comfortable.

"Mr. Leo and Fitch!"

Morgana winked at her.

The author has something to say:

Leo: Who cue me?
