Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 176 ‘Family Identity’ Look at Haute Couture (please order more!)

The day of the big show.

In the morning, Gaultier's assistant delivered the dress.

I also brought a makeup assistant over.

In that show in 07, apart from the clothes, what was the most outstanding thing?

Of course it’s the “teardrop makeup” on the face!

Youji's colorful, gorgeous and stunning teardrop makeup makes people look back with pity for a moment.All subsequent uses of religious style are more or less influenced by Gaultier's 07 show.

And teardrop makeup

Young Mustang in the Korean girl group often shows off this look on stage.

After blending the upper and lower eyelids, draw or paste some sequins on the inverted triangle area of ​​the eyelids, which not only creates a big eye effect but also makes the eyes look dewy. Her fans once praised her to the sky.

But few people know that 'tear makeup' has a long history in China and the West.

The way of interpretation is also different.

In China, tear makeup specifically refers to makeup with white powder on the corners of the eyes that looks like tears. It has the same effect as high-gloss silkworms. It appeared in the Tang and Five Dynasties. This makeup looks like tears, making it look sad and sad. The meaning of simplicity.

It was one of the most important makeup styles in the Song Dynasty.

During the sacrificial ceremony, some qualified women often wear this makeup to worship their ancestors.In the Song Dynasty, the words "tears are more important than thin rouge" and "when the moon falls in the west building, the tears are spread evenly" are used to refer to this kind of makeup.

Of course, women from wealthy families also often wear similar makeup in their usual elegant outfits.

According to historical records, this makeup was invented by Yang Guifei’s sister, Mrs. Guo Guo.

In the West, the display form of 'tear makeup' is more intuitive, or it is more in line with the fashionable tear makeup.Because it often appears in early European classical art statues, it is often found in Virgin sculptures.

Images of weeping Madonnas are rare, and even in Michelangelo’s Pietà, the Madonna’s sadness is subdued.

But in Spain it's different.

Every year in the week before Easter, Spain holds a grand Holy Week festival to commemorate the Passion of Jesus.Legend has it that during a Holy Week gathering centuries ago, people shed tears when they saw the statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and they marveled.

The statue of the Virgin raised her head and smiled.

Since then, the image of the Weeping Virgin has been called the "Icon of Madonna Magalina". As an important branch of Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows, it is regarded as a national treasure by Spain.

This kind of image of the Virgin with tears can often be seen in many Baroque churches in Spain.

In addition, teardrop makeup also appears in the paintings of painters, the most famous of which is Picasso's "Crying Woman".

Ever since Gaultier used the 'teardrop makeup' in his personal brand Haute Couture show in 07, and then promoted it through METGALA's celebrity promotions, this makeup has been deeply loved by celebrities.

Fan Xiaopang, Jennifer Lopez, Wang Fei, etc. have all tried it on different occasions.

And every time I try it, it gives people a stunning visual sense.

As for who is the perfect interpreter, every celebrity fan has his own preference, but tying it to a certain star's face is really laughable.

After all, in the fashion industry, the one who takes it to the extreme is Jessica Stein, a model who can show different styles and has the ultimate baby face.

In addition to shining in the HC (haute couture) fashion show, she also conquered commercial shows like Victoria's Secret.

Whether she was in the opening scene or wearing angel wings, she made people exclaim, but her results in Victoria's Secret gave people more of a sigh.

The makeup is set very well and the clothes are true to size.

Except for some slight adjustments on Liu Qianqian's chest, the overall effect is very satisfactory to Liu Qianqian herself, the makeup artist and Xiang Yang.

"Xiang, do you want me to design a hairstyle for you?"

"Me? I don't need it."

Xiang Yang waved his hand and refused, "I'm just here to join in the fun for you."

"Xiang, listen to me, let's design one. Your foundation is very good, just mess with your hair a little."

"That's fine."

Unlike Chanel who chose the Grand Palais, and Dior who chose the Château de Chantilly, Gaultier’s personal haute couture show is located in the Rodin Museum.

Rodin is one of the greatest sculptors after Michelangelo.

The famous 'Thinker' is his masterpiece.

Unlike the [-]-meter red carpet, there is a lot of rush before entering the big show.

The open area in front of the Rodin Museum was crowded with people, and the media were strictly required to stay in the interview area. Security personnel tried their best to control the smooth flow of passages to avoid crowding caused by too many people staying.

There were also some passers-by who came to join in the fun, eagerly waiting in the quarantine area to see the stars of this year's Gaultier show.

“I’ll park the car in front, and you take Laura and Liu Xian in.”

"Okay, I'll wait for you inside then."

Little John, who was driving the car, found that there was still some distance to go before reaching the entrance of the Rodin Museum, and turned his head and said to Xiang Yang.

In the car, apart from the two ladies’ meticulous dress and makeup, neither Xiangyang nor Little John looked like they were coming to see a show, either from their expressions or their tone of voice.

Except for their slightly spruced up attire, they looked like they were going shopping together.

While the two were joking, Laura smiled at Liu Qianqian. Their clothes were very similar, both were blue skirts from the 07 show.

Just because of the difference in fabrics, the styles are very different.

Laura's is a silk evening dress, and Liu Qianqian's is

Before, Laura always felt that colors with relatively low saturation were suitable for Liu Qianqian, and now it seems that it is indeed the case.

Different from the Asian faces that are mixed up in the fashion circle, the contours of Liu Qianqian’s face are more distinct under the exquisite makeup. The slightly tilted nose tip, lips decorated with elegant lipstick, and teardrop makeup make her clear eyes mesmerizing. There is a hint of emptiness.

And her figure is not like the skinny HC supermodel.

Her thick black hair fell on her snow-white skin, and her delicate round shoulders revealed a healthy and carefree look, which she praised.

"It's coming."

Xiang Yang said.

The car slowly slowed down and drove into the approaching convoy.

Each invited guest waited for the car to stop at the door, and quickly got out of the car. After scanning the entrance, they quickly walked into the show venue at the invitation of the staff.

Some will cooperate with reporters to take photos, but leave their names.

Sorry, this is the 09 haute couture show, so this is not the way to go.

After Little John stopped the car, Xiang Yang got out of the passenger seat. He was in a good mood and patted Little John on the shoulder to express his gratitude before getting off the car.

After all, it was not easy for him to borrow a Bentley from JCE.

<divclass="contentadv">But as soon as he got off the car, Xiangyang immediately noticed something was wrong. There seemed to be a lot of reporters at the entrance of the passage, and the crowd surrounding him also immediately took out their mobile phones.

"It's strange, it's not Chanel or Dior here, why are there so many reporters."

After muttering something, Xiang Yang opened the door and invited Liu Qianqian and Laura to get out of the car one after another.

During this period, he also helped the two pretty ladies tidy up their skirts like a gentleman, no different from a celebrity assistant.

When Laura and Liu Qianqian got off the station, flash lights lit up in the media interview area not far away.

The onlookers who joined in the fun also made sounds of exclamation, and their mobile phones kept clicking.

"Come on, let's go first."

After closing the car door, Xiang Yang smiled at the two of them and said.

"Okay." Liu Qianqian smiled and nodded, holding Laura's arm, while Xiang Yang walked beside him and asked, "Are you going to be interviewed?"

"Haha, no way." Laura smiled and shook her head.

"I'm not going either, hehe." Liu Qianqian's eyes stayed for a few seconds, then she immediately withdrew her eyes and winked at Xiang Yang and Laura.

She is a star.

But she is here today as a designer's 'family member'.

Just by her smile, the surrounding eyes were immediately attracted. The "tragic" muse also had a moment of brilliance. Those who recognized the dress Liu Qianqian was wearing couldn't help but admire her.

After quickly arriving at the door and showing the invitation letter, the usher took the three of them to the visiting area.

While leading the way, he was communicating with the people inside through the headset.

Soon, someone familiar to Xiang Yang appeared in front of him.

"Why do you come here when you are free?"

Facing Gaultier's special assistant, Xiang Yang was stunned for a moment.

To be honest, this should be his busiest time. After all, Gaultier has several personal brand responsibilities. He is busy backstage and has no time to sit with the stars in the show and provide them with pre-show photos. Chance.

The person with him was Axel Dumas, the future head of Hermès, whom Xiang Yang was going to introduce to Liu Qianqian.

"Hey, Xiang, why don't you introduce the two muses to me?"

Axel, who came to Gaultier's personal haute couture show as a special representative of Hermès, smiled and stretched out his hand before Gaultier's special assistant could answer. After shaking hands with Xiang Yang, he looked at Laura and Liu Qianqian. He nodded slightly.

"I was about to say something." Xiang Yang smiled, "This is from Hermès."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Xiang Yang's words were interrupted by bursts of exclamations from outside the door not far away.

Everyone's attention at the entrance of the show was immediately attracted.

Just when Xiang Yang was confused, Gaultier's special assistant couldn't help but smile. He gently pulled Xiang Yang, leaned into Xiang Yang's ear and said:

"This is a surprise prepared by Gaultier for you, take your time and enjoy it, haha."

Xiang Yang: "???"

Little John parked the car. Not knowing what happened at the show, he spent a long time before walking in.

He felt that the entire media outside the show was like crazy!

What are these people talking about when they get together?Each one of them looked like they had never seen the world before.

"Xiang, why are you going?"

Walking into the show, he bumped into his friend who suddenly walked out. After asking curiously, Little John looked inside casually and exclaimed: "Oh, Xiang, how come Liu and Laura are so different from Lafayette and Lafayette?" Miko sit together!”

Xiang Yang turned around, said "Oh", and while holding his friend's shoulder and walking out, asked, "Have you brought a cigarette?"

Little John nodded blankly. He was still confused. His wife was smiling and chatting with Lafayette, while Lafayette was still nodding with a smile, as if in agreement.

This picture immediately made his head dizzy.

"If Laura says something wrong, she will never be able to go on the Chanel and Fendi runways in her life."

wrong!Why are Liu and Anna Wintour also chatting?

What the hell is this!

Wasn't she always afraid of that old woman? !

Why is she covering her mouth and laughing?damn it!Don’t laugh at the teardrop makeup, okay!

Laura, you idiot!What are you and Lafayette laughing at? Could you please lower the corners of your lips?

Are those photographers from Vogue Legal?They took photos of my wife without my consent!

"Although I won't wear them, I will give these stockings to Todd Thomas (Victoria's Secret Creative Director), and he should get more inspiration from them."

Carrying the gift bag from Gaultier's show, Anna Wintour said with a smile after the show.

"No, I will keep it for collection." Lafayette standing next to her said: "This is the best gift I received this year. I really like the highlights it shows in fashion."

As the host of the show, Gaultier, who was also interviewed, just smiled slightly when asked, "Oh, you said those black stockings, they were designed by Thomas Xiang, they are just his fashion I really like that he has such a breakthrough."

"Who is Thomas Xiang!"

Looking at the French newspaper delivered early in the morning, Mr. Xun frowned, but soon showed an expression of surprise.

Isn’t this young man taking photos with Gaultier, The Devil Wears Prada, and Lafayette the same designer I saw at the Chanel Haute Couture show that day?

How could he stand with them?Also appeared in the headlines of the media? !

Unlike Mr. Xun, the domestic media is focusing on another group photo.

"Dong dong dong!" There was a knock on the door. The confused Mr. Xun took the newspaper and read it as he came to the door of his room. The moment he opened the door, the anxious agent Huang Ge said hurriedly:

"Brother Xun, this is bad! Chanel's endorsement may be ruined!"

As he spoke, he raised his phone, and a domestic media report was displayed in front of Mr. Xun.

And this photo is going viral in China

In the photo, from left to right, the group photo of Lafayette, The Devil Wears Prada, Liu Qianqian, and passerby (Laura) once again triggered a discussion among domestic fashion-conscious people.

In the photo, Liu Qianqian, who is wearing a light skirt and slim figure, has a joyful expression on her face. Although Lafayette and the Devil Wear are wearing sunglasses, they both look happy.
