Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 125 Family Members (seeking determination)

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xiaoli suddenly felt her heart congested.

As the saying goes, 'If you don't raise a child, you don't know the parents' heart.' It's true, but she had no intention of letting her daughter raise a child so early!

"Sissi, don't fool around! I will never agree to this kind of thing!"

Within a moment, Liu Qianqian got the answer from her mother's mouth.

"Don't forget, the apartment you rented there is still vacant!" Liu Xiaoli continued.

"Mom..." Liu Qianqian frowned, "That apartment is too small, Xiangyang's apartment is also too small, Fantuan and the others can't live there."

When Liu Qianqian took the initiative to mention her troubles, Liu Xiaoli became furious and scolded her: "Then don't take them with you and let them continue to live here."

"That's not okay, the rice balls are my babies." Liu Qianqian's eyelashes trembled slightly.

She had already thought about it. She wanted to buy a bigger house, one in the suburbs. It didn’t have to have a yard as big as JCE’s house, nor was it as luxurious as Anna Wintour’s house. It just needed a lawn. It would be best. There can be a fence.

In this case, the dogs can take a walk in front of the house every day, and they can also plant flowers by themselves.

Then you can hold Xiangyang’s hand and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Paris at night while walking the dog.

Feel the tranquility between the two of you.

"You...Sissi, you..."

Looking at her daughter's bright and bright eyes, Liu Xiaoli guessed what she was thinking in her mind.

For a moment, it was hard to say anything.

"Mom, I have thought about it. After I finish filming this movie, I will go to school." Liu Qianqian, who had already made a plan in her heart, put the documents in her hand into her pocket and then said:

"Xiang Yang is right, you can't make enough money, and you can't spend all the money you have. I also asked Damien, the director who has a good relationship with us, and he also supported me to study more and improve myself. "

"He also said that many really good actors, in order to improve their acting skills..."

Liu Qianqian's serious words sounded like a hum to Liu Xiaoli's ears.

At this moment, the words lingering in her mind were, "My dearest... my dearest..."

……

Xiang Yang, who returned to Paris, was not idle either.

There were too many 'debts' before, and he finally understood why Lafayette had to put in 16 hours at work every day.

A 'sports series' kept him so busy at work that he had no time to do anything else.

He really couldn't figure out how this old man could be so energetic. He was definitely a master of time management.

Why can no one shake Karl Lagerfeld’s status in the fashion industry?

At most, he is in charge of the design of four top brands at the same time, which is unprecedented in the history of fashion.

Even now, he is the busiest designer in the fashion industry, holding 17 fashion shows and designing 24 series for Fendi, Chanel and personal brands every year.In addition to these, he also has a lot of hobbies and interests, including bookstores, newspapers, publishing houses, and photography exhibitions... and occasionally cross-border collaborations.

And the vast majority of top designers basically produce four series a year...

"Damn it, next time I see him, I'm going to learn from him."

After discussing the matter with the Italian fabrics, Xiang Yang trotted back to his office and directly picked up a glass of mineral water from the table, opened it and drank it while muttering.

"Xiang, what did you say?" Little John walked in behind him and asked curiously.

"I said that the coating of this Italian fabric manufacturer was too poor to achieve the effect I wanted." After complaining to Xiang Yang, he threw the empty glass bottle directly into the trash can, "And there's me. When will the damn goose down you want arrive?"

"Tomorrow, I asked today." Little John said as he handed the report in his hand to Xiang Yang: "Here, the ratio of 78.9% nylon + 21.1% spandex is the best cost-effective ratio for ductility and sweat absorption. , In addition, they said that they are now contacting the sports laboratory, and experimental reports on key sports muscle groups will be produced as soon as possible."

Nylon, also called nylon, polyamide fiber.

It plays an irreplaceable role in many sports-related clothing materials. Its most important feature is moisture absorption and perspiration.

How to make nylon have a more significant moisture conduction effect is to add grooves on its surface to make it have very good quick-drying properties.And its strong and durable characteristics also perfectly play a better role in sportswear.

Spandex is added to make the fabric more elastic. It can be stretched 5 to 8 times, with a recovery rate as high as 98%.

So the combination of the two creates a perfect balance for the fabrics used in yoga pants.

"Let them increase the proportion of spandex. We are not a sports brand." Xiang Yang glanced at the report and said.

In the future, the spandex content of better yoga pants on the market is basically around 20%. This is mainly because the spandex is too low, which will cause a tight feeling when stretching, while if it is too high, it will only increase the cost.The price of good spandex on the market is generally four times that of nylon, so it is impossible for sports brands not to consider this.

But Xiang Yang, there is no need to worry so much.

Moreover, the materials he uses are higher-end.

Although fabrics such as nylon and spandex are common, they are also divided into grades.

Using the best fabrics, combined with ergonomics, using high-waist design, complex splicing, and arc design to create space for the hips, while using a special triangular structure to avoid the appearance of a 'camel's hump', allowing the overall design to lead directly Other brands of yoga pants at the same time are more than 10 years old.

Coupled with the unique contrasting color design, it not only has good sports attributes, but also has fashionability.

Such a simple yet complex pair of pants, in a sense, defines what yoga pants should be like.

Perhaps this would not be unusual in 2023, but this is 2009.

Even though Lululemon has been launched in the United States, they are still in the exploratory stage, while Xiangyang has already come up with their later classic designs.

And it's not just copying, there are many improvements.

For example, there is no quilting line design on the inner thighs, M smile line design on the buttocks, etc...

At the same time, in another office at the Hermès Fubao Avenue headquarters, global creative directors Pierre and Patrick were also having a heated discussion.

Otherwise, they were a little confused after seeing the finished yoga pants.

After the conversation that day, they had actually been waiting for Xiangyang to come up with this series of products. They couldn't say they were all counting on Xiangyang, but they were more or less looking forward to Xiangyang's creativity.

But Xiang Yang's creativity really shocked the two of them.

Luxury brand designers have actually done what sports brand designers can’t do? !

This was their first reaction when they saw the physical product of the 'Sports Series', and then they tried to understand and digest it.

And then... After listening to Xiangyang's explanation of the design of these simple pants, the two of them reacted with excitement!

What is this design?

In luxury goods, it is bullshit, but in sports brands, it is money!

You know, the marketing revenue of sports brands is much more than that of luxury goods!

Although Hermès' revenue still maintained a 10% growth under the influence of the financial crisis, what is its net income?

Just over 2.5 million euros.

"This little guy has posed a difficult problem for us."

<divclass="contentadv">"Yes, to be honest, I am looking forward to other design products in this series. I also asked Le Maire specifically today, and he said that Xiang often gives him some wonderful ideas, but He also didn’t expect that this little guy would study ergonomics when he was free.”

"What do you think about this?"

Hearing the doubts in Patrick's tone, Pierre, the global creative director of Hermès, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

After thinking about it for a while, and carefully looking at Xiang Yang's written design idea report, he finally said:

"You should ask your research department to come up with the market forecast data, and then we draw conclusions. From my point of view, Xiang is a very good designer. He can notice things that others ignore, or he can put them into perspective." Do what others are thinking and do to the extreme.

This is a good design, even if it does not belong to Hermès, it is still a very valuable design. "

"I think the same as you." Patrick nodded, "Pierre, you know the current situation of the company. To be honest, the changes in the stock market make me a little worried, and the other is the new revenue point. You take over the company, The establishment of a new jewelry design department is also to better bring revenue to the company in terms of art.

Oriental design, too.

Fashion never goes out of style, but a company must innovate.

I think if Xiangyang comes up with the next design, it can really bring the 'sports series' to a professional level.

We should think about it carefully. "

"Yes." Pierre, who had been listening to Patrick's speech, nodded with a smile, "I'm afraid that after the other designs included in this series are made, if we don't consider it carefully, he will also consider us."

"Yeah, haha." Patrick smiled, "Xiang Yang still has pursuits. He may just be interested in sports."

"I hope so. When I met JCE two days ago, I heard him say that this little guy is helping design costumes for a movie and is also interested in perfume." Pierre's mouth also moved.

"Perfume?" Patrick frowned. He could understand if Xiangyang repeatedly jumped around in clothing-related matters.

After all, most designers are like this, but Xiangyang's beating is more professional.

But there is a connection between perfume and clothing...well, there is a connection.

"JCE said that when the roof garden above was open to the young man from his house, we were smoking and talking about an encounter." Pierre explained with a smile. When he met JCE, this royal tune was The perfumer was pacing in the garden thinking.

He was still curious at the time, so he walked over and asked.

This garden is not open to the public on weekdays, and only a few people can rest in it.

JCE happens to have this privilege.

"Encounter? Sweet taste? Romantic taste?" Patrick wrinkled his nose. He didn't really like the sweet and cloying feeling.

"No, it's said to be the sweetness of green apple, the astringency of lime, the stability of pine, and the tranquility of musk." Pierre shrugged, "JCE said it's the smell of the rooftop garden."

"It looks like we are going to release a new perfume."

"Maybe."

In the evening, after leaving Hermès, Xiang Yang drove directly to the airport.

After finishing his work and being in private time, he had no time to rest.

After buying a bouquet of pink and white roses, and sitting at the airport for about 2 hours, Xiang Yang, who was still hungry, received the returning Liu Qianqian as he wished.

There are also two dogs and a cat...

"Qianxi, where's Auntie?" As soon as he handed the flowers to Liu Qianqian, Xiangyang looked around and didn't see Liu Xiaoli.

"She said she didn't care about me, and then I came back on my own, hehe." Liu Qianqian said, smelling the fragrance of the roses, she hugged Xiang Yang and said, "It's time to eat, I'm so hungry."

"No, I've been waiting for you." Xiang Yang scratched the hair on Liu Qianqian's cheek, kissed her, then looked at Liu Qianqian's pets and said, "Can you just take them away?"

"Hehe~" Liu Qianqian's eyes looked cheerful, and she asked, "I haven't asked yet, will you let them live in it?"

As she finished speaking, her clear eyes flashed with hope.

"Of course, but it will be a bit troublesome to walk them, and there are a lot of legal regulations when it comes to raising them." Xiangyang said in a gentle tone. After speaking, he looked at the muzzle and looked at his two dogs with "oooo" eyes. The dog smiled and asked, "What breed are they?"

"Hehe~ I'll tell you when I get back." Seeing that Xiang Yang didn't object, Liu Qianqian pushed Xiang Yang and told them to go home together.

"Oh, okay." Xiang Yang agreed hurriedly, pushed up the luggage cart and quickly led the other party to the parking lot.

By the time he put the luggage in the trunk, Liu Qianxi had already put the cat and dog cages in the back seat of the car, and comforted them by telling them that they would be going home soon, and that she would let them out as soon as they got home.

One can imagine the reverie that such a scene brings to Xiang Yang.

He felt his eyes froze.

"Why, you won't be jealous of them, right?" Liu Qianqian closed the door, saw Xiang Yang's dull face, and came to him in two steps. She tilted her head and asked curiously, while blinking her moving eyes. .

"No, I just want to go home early." Xiang Yang smiled and pursed his lips in embarrassment.

"I also want to go home and cook for me." Liu Qianqian was very happy, because in the home he mentioned, not only would she be there in the future, but there would also be rice balls and stuff...

However, both of them thought things were too simple.

As soon as they arrived at Xiangyang's home, the dogs, who were frustrated, began their investigation work, with Fantuan and Laifu running around.

When Liu Qianqian was anxious, Dongdong (the cat) ran into the bedroom and got under the bed while she was not paying attention. Then he couldn't scream no matter how hard he screamed.

"Sissi, is this thing stressed?"

After cleaning up the carpet messed up by the dog, Xiangyang asked worriedly when he saw the black cat still hiding under the bed.

Liu Qianqian, who was using a cat teasing stick to try to get it out, shushed and said to Xiang Yang, "It will be in trouble if it doesn't come out. It's all your fault for not closing the bedroom door."

"Why are you in trouble?" Xiang Yang looked at Liu Qianqian blankly.

Could it be...that's indeed a bit troublesome.

Thinking of something, the corners of Xiangyang's mouth raised slightly.

After all, a little separation is better than a newlywed~

"You don't know, its daddy stinks..." Liu Qianqian explained, and suddenly found that Xiangyang walked in and closed the bedroom door.

When she saw him approaching and leaning down with a wicked smile on his face, she immediately realized something.

"Xiang Yang! I haven't eaten yet!"

"Not urgent……"

Please don’t skip booking, thank you
