When Mill walked out of the Bulgari workshop, the last rays of the setting sun had sunk below the horizon. Because of the remote location, apart from the faint singing of cicadas, the only thing that accompanied it was the extinction of stars in the dark sky.

Mir let out a breath and relaxed her body. Now she needs to catch the last high-speed train back to the Milan apartment. There are other trips tomorrow. It is a pity that she will continue to miss dinner after missing lunch.

In the interview just now, Mir felt that it was not optimistic. Although the designer named Ben was very eager, Mir could see that the one who really made the decision was the one who had been invisibly grasping the direction of the chat and wearing an unpredictable smile. Director of Operations Peter.

She saw scrutiny and hesitation in the eyes of this humane director.

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

Peter Panson flipped through the photo collection left by Mir, and the first group of photos in a retro tone immediately caught his eye.

In the photo, Mir is wearing a dark green silk blouse and a smoothly draped sequined mermaid skirt, lying on a leather sofa in a lazy posture, her body stretches naturally to form a graceful curve, and the mermaid skirt hangs down like an umbrella On a wool rug.The light casts flickering light and shadows on the part above the collarbone in a dim yellow tone, and the slender hands with well-defined joints are slightly raised to block half of the face, and the blurred and cold gaze penetrates through the fingers and penetrates the lens.

The photographer recorded this moment from a bird's-eye view, but Mir's eyes looked like she was the queen overlooking the world from a high position, noble and arrogant.

Peter narrowed his eyes, born noble.

Ben Ridfern locked the necklace carefully, turned around and said to Peter excitedly: "Hey, did you see that Miss Meade just now is the perfect presentation of this theme, if I didn't design this time The main person in charge, I suspect that this 'Roman Source' was specially built for her!"

Peter smiled and said, "Allow me to remind you that Miss Mir is not Meade, but you are right, she is indeed a good candidate, with outstanding temperament and eye-catching color."

Ben fell silent. Although he focused on design and was not keen on interpersonal communication, he was able to analyze his general thoughts from the expression and words of this partner who worked together.Although Peter praised Mir, there was a hint of reservation in his smile, obviously because of other considerations: "You think she is inappropriate?"

Peter ran his fingers over Mir's eyes in the photo: "No, there is no doubt that this girl was born for Bulgari."

Ben was even more puzzled: "Since we have the same opinion, why are you still hesitating?"

"The essence of Bulgari is the fusion of Greek and Roman classicism. For the cover of the homepage of each issue of our website, we use models with Italian and Greek origins, because this can make Bulgari's style more vividly conveyed." Peter pushed the photobook toward Ben, nodding at Mill's face, "But she's an Eastern face."

Ben stretched his hands on his hips to indicate that he could not receive his radio waves: "When did Sowhat Bulgari start to have blood worship? Because she is oriental? This reason is ridiculous."

Peter folded his hands on his chest, still speaking in a calm tone: "Oh... my friend, who do you think I am, you think you misunderstood me."

"I don't have any doubts about her oriental origin, but I have to estimate from an operational point of view how many risks and risks it will bring to use an oriental face as a cover piece on Bulgari's global website. Return. Bulgari has never invited oriental models to display high-end jewelry series before, because the core concept of the brand has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and we cannot guarantee the repercussions of rash reforms.”

Ben was so anxious that he turned around twice: "But it would be a pity to miss her. It would be a pity to have a soul match with jewelry, which is hard to come by."

Peter pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "It's really a pity."

Ben frowned: "What do you mean?"

Peter: "Global pages are too risky, but regional specialization can be considered."

Ben seemed to understand, his eyes lit up: "You mean..."

A meaningful smile appeared on Peter's face: "I think Bulgari's Asian region has a breakthrough."

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

Mir knows nothing about the dispute between the two. She has always believed in doing everything according to fate, and knows that in addition to hard work, some things depend largely on luck. If you don't go, it's a chance to see and even try on the sky-high priced treasures up close, and it's enough to make the girls here envious for a while.

It's up to God, she just needs to wait patiently for the result, it's useless to think too much.

The itinerary for the next few days will be more intensive. Tomorrow morning, she will go to the Amica headquarters to audition and take sample photos. After that, she will need to fly to Paris to participate in the interview for the autumn and winter advanced ready-to-wear show of Elle Saab, a brand famous for its dresses in Lebanon.The four major fashion weeks end with Paris Fashion Week. Each fashion week lasts for a week. Now New York, London and Milan have come to an end, and some high-end fashion shows of Paris have also closed.

Ellie Saab's high-end ready-to-wear show was arranged on the last day of fashion week, and Mir had time to participate in the interview. For a newcomer like her, it is still difficult to set foot in the four major high-end brands, but ready-to-wear is a show experience that can be tried.Rex only chose this one, presumably hoping to use this opportunity to let her practice her skills. Models are worth a lot from various shows. Rex grabbed the tail of Paris Fashion Week with the aim of creating a Prepare for the following spring and summer fashion week.

After the interview, she needs to participate in Givenchy's fitting model selection in Paris. If she arrives in time, she will also have a makeup audition for the French brand L'Oreal on the same day.

Mill knows that this level of busyness is just an appetizer. The real fashion has more than 300 shows in one month. In order to catch up with the show, the models may not be able to sleep for a few hours a day, and they must still maintain a good state under high pressure and overload. , body and mind must be made of steel.

Mill put the confirmed itinerary back into the bag, and this was just the beginning.

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

After returning to the Milan apartment, he took a hasty wash and rested for three hours, then packed up and rushed to the Amica headquarters.

The company is located in a high-rise office building in the center of Milan. There are editors and assistants in fashionable clothes in a hurry. After confirming her information, the front desk leads her to the studio. Her task is to cooperate with the photographer to complete a photo. Still photos that can show the main elements of the season, and finally the fashion editors will judge whether the photos can appear on the inside pages of the magazine.

The photographer is a man with curly shoulder-length black hair, deep-set eye sockets, and a somewhat decadent face. His cheeks are thin and his cheekbones are high, and his complexion is fair but bloodless. It should be caused by working in a studio all year round. His pupils are dark. Brown, reddish under the dim light of the studio, the eyes that fell on Mir's body were light and unreal, no different from looking at a weed by the roadside, with a kind of inorganic indifference.

Mill blinked. Do fashion magazine photographers have to look like models?He looked like a vampire from the local legend in the dark and cold underground of Rome, with a high-level world-weary face that HF ​​is especially fond of.

The photographer sat sideways on the desk beside him, put down the lens he was wiping, and asked slowly, "Where are you from?"

Mir had goosebumps all over his body. He spoke in a very low volume, and his voice was unexpectedly smooth and clear like a violin over the strings. Coupled with his slow speaking speed and indifferent tone, he looked more like a proud blood nobleman.

"My name is Mir, sir, I belong to the Elite company, and I am from country Z."

The photographer lingered on her hair for a while, then nodded: "You have beautiful straight black hair, Mir. Elite... Well, I have taken photos of quite a few Elite female models, and you are the first People from country Z." Then he looked away as if he was not interested, and turned his neck with one hand on the back of his neck: "My name is Ryan Leiner, just call me Ryan... um... come here..."

He waved to Mir, motioning her to follow, and Mir noticed that Ryan was tall, 6-foot-3 by visual inspection, but with a thin physique.

Ryan took her to the clothing area on the side, and said to the fashion assistant on the side: "Find her a suit that fits, choose a dark color, so that she doesn't look so much like a junior high school student."

Mill:?

The assistant smiled: "Oriental people do look small, but your proportions are very good. You are born with a hanger, and you look good in anything."

She picked from the hanger: "Let's see... How about this set? McQueen's new matte black suit can be matched with this MD's blue silk shirt!"

Ryan glanced at it and thought there was nothing wrong with it, so he nodded.

Mir went to the dressing room and changed his clothes in a proper manner. When he walked out, the female assistant saw that she had buttoned the shirt inside to the second-to-last button, and the suit jacket was tightly closed, and burst out laughing.

Mir blinked in confusion, then lowered his head to check, the button was right or wrong.

The female assistant held back her smile, and came over to help her unbutton her coat, and unbuttoned the top three buttons of the bottoming shirt inside, revealing her delicate collarbone and a large expanse of fair skin: "Oh dear, you You’re not going to a business meeting, you’re going for a fashion shoot, and it’s going to make you look like a stiff office worker instead of a sexy model!”

The corner of Mir's mouth twitched, feeling the cool wind in front of his chest. He really wanted to tighten the neckline, moved his fingers, but he held back, sighed to comfort himself, it's okay, this is art, justwork...

The assistant helped her roll up the cuffs of the suit jacket twice, exposing her fair and tight forearms. The lining of the suit was made of dark blue light-sensitive satin material, which echoed the inner shirt, making a pure and A black suit doesn't look so dull.Mir looked at the adjusted new look in the mirror with some surprise. If he felt something, he just unbuttoned a few buttons and rolled up the cuffs, which caused a huge change in the overall dressing style.

In this line of work, she does have a lot to learn.

The stylist fluffed her straight hair with a strong wind, sprayed mousse on the top of the head to create a messy fried hair effect, and used a curling iron to make a few large curls at the end of the hair.Mir's facial features are relatively three-dimensional, with deep eyebrows and eyes, so there is no need for too much modification, so after applying the base makeup, he simply applied contouring on the sides of the cheeks and the root of the mountain, and applied gold-pink highlights on the triangle area under the eyes and cheekbones.

Mill's eyes are shaped like almonds, full and clear, and they look very sincere and innocent when looking at someone steadily. With her clear and pure eyes, the stylist thought, no wonder Ryan said she looked like a junior high school student.Mir has her own earth-colored eyeshadow, which makes her eye sockets deep and not like the flat facial features common to Asians. The stylist only uses coffee brown to slightly smudge the back of her upper eyelid and the end of her lower eyelid, visually pulling The corners of the eyes have grown, making the eyes look slender and blurred, with a decadent aura.In order not to make the makeup look too heavy, the lips are only primed with a nude beige lipstick.

The stylist held Mir's face and looked at the overall effect. He gave himself a thumbs up and made a joke: "Now you don't look like a junior high school student."

Mir was still curiously looking at the newly made shape in the mirror, but when he heard this, he immediately turned indifferent, as long as you are happy.

While she was doing modeling, Ryan had already set up the studio with the prop artist, and was communicating with the lighting engineer about the lighting requirements for the meeting.The background arrangement is very simple, only a white wooden piano and a four-corner chair.After Mir walked into the shooting range, Ryan adjusted the focal length of the lens, raised the camera and entered the working state: "Mir, give me a comfortable and natural posture to show your suit."

Mill blinked, needing to be comfortable in a restrictive suit, okay.

She takes off her shoes and puts them out of the camera. She sits on two-thirds of the chair, leans her upper body back on the chair back, steps on the floor with her right leg and stretches forward naturally, showing excellent leg lines, and steps on the heel of her left foot. Standing on the edge of the chair with the left leg, the straight trousers are cut upwards, exposing the skinny and slender ankle. The left forearm is naturally resting on the cover of the piano behind him, and the head is slightly tilted to look at the camera, with deepened eyes. The tail looks bewildered and alluring.

Ryan lowered his body and adjusted the camera angle: "Good! Good pose! Gaffer, just add a layer of light to her face and upper body, and keep the rest in shadow."

After adding some lighting, it creates an effect that the sun outside the window is dappled into the room, and people are the only bright color in the photo.The satin shirt Mir wore inside showed a soft and silky texture under the light. The combination of dark blue and thick black complemented the already fair skin as delicate as milk, and the slender legs perfectly showed the straight-through trousers Excellent fabric and excellent tailoring.

The urban beauty in a serious dark suit under the bright light, and the white, pure and elegant wooden piano in the shadows, the interweaving of light and shadow and the contrast of tones make the picture very layered.

Ryan suddenly frowned, Mir saw his expression was different, his heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "What's wrong?"

Ryan took a step forward to look at the set, then stepped back and turned around in a circle, his tone a little annoyed: "There are still some shortcomings, the composition of the set is fine, but the overall... a bit boring, it's just good-looking, I Can you understand if you want a sense of conflict?"

Mir seemed to understand but didn't understand. She was wearing a mature suit and wearing makeup with a sense of desolation. If you want a sense of conflict, then it's okay to do the opposite, so he tentatively suggested: " Maybe you can give me a lollipop?" She remembers the little sweets being loved by the children here.

"Lollipop?" Ryan muttered, thoughtfully, his eyes lit up suddenly, and his voice raised, "That's right! That's it! Oh, you're a genius!" Immediately turned to the corner, In the snacks and desserts area for the staff, I found a blueberry-flavored spherical lollipop and gave it to Mir.

Mir returned to the previous posture, holding the lollipop in his mouth, but no longer looking directly at the camera, but in the direction of the lighting.

The girl’s facial skeleton in the camera is still immature, and her messy and fluffy black hair makes her look a little smart and playful. She puts on a strict and formal suit, perms her curly hair, and puts on delicate makeup, which seems to force her to grow up A few years old, the white piano behind him represents the elegance and restraint of a mature woman, but the lid is not even opened, and the hand is slightly propped on the piano lid to imply a body language of resistance. The tightness of the pants returned to the stretched position.The ends of her eyes smudged with coffee-colored eyeshadow looked decadent and cold, but her eyes were clear and bright when she looked at the bright place outside the window. The lollipop in her mouth instantly collapsed the adult image she was trying to portray, revealing a youthful look. The innocence and sweetness unique to people.

Light and darkness, pure white and dark blue, innocence and maturity.

Ryan held his breath and pressed the shutter.



When Mir walked out of Amica after removing her makeup, she couldn't help but rubbed her face, she was really not used to putting all kinds of powder on her face.

She took a look at the hard photo samples just now. Although she doesn't know photography, she has to admit that the photos taken by Ryan are alive, and the use of colors and angles is superb. Compared with what she saw when she looked in the mirror Afterwards, this hard photo will be sent to the editors' desks after being trimmed, and they will decide whether to use it or not.

Mill thought that just now Ryan changed his previous sense of decadence and encouraged her to give up being a model and come to Amica as his photography assistant like a chicken blood, and felt powerless for a while.Forgive her, she can't eat this bowl of rice.

Just as he was about to go to the subway station, the mobile phone suddenly sounded software prompts one after another.

Mir took out his phone strangely and found that it was a message bubble popping up on kkt. He thought it was Jin Nanjun who wanted to find her for something. After all, she only added him on kkt.

After clicking on it, a series of request information popped up.
