Chapter 255: Inside and Out

Haute Couture's clientele is the rarest, but designers are the busiest.

In addition to the design itself, there is also a lot of time that needs to be spent on communication.

Not every customer can manage their body like Audrey Hepburn like a textbook.

Audrey Hepburn's desk has not been modified since it was finished.

The desks for haute couture customers are specially customized according to the size of each person.

Yan Yun, who has the ultimate requirements for the version, will naturally strive for excellence when tailoring it for customers.

However, the complex process of high-end determines that the "delivery" time of clothes is extremely long.

If you place an order today and the dress will be ready tomorrow, it will definitely not be called haute couture.

Not to mention that it can't be done at all, and even if it can be done, it can't be done like this.

The process of waiting and tailoring is also extremely important for high-end customers, without which the clothes will appear "cheap".

Not half a year, at least three months to make the customer wait.

Those more complex special custom models can easily wait for three years and five years.

In this process, many people's figures will change.

If it gets better, and you tell people that you want to change someone's desk, it will naturally be a happy thing.

But if the figure is a little out of shape and needs to change the desk, it is definitely a very difficult communication task.

Every time such a time comes, it must be Yan Yun who personally communicates.

Few people are willing to admit that they are not as good as they used to be.

This is also why, even if many girls squeeze, they must squeeze into their original pants and skirts.

Haute couture has also had such a time, palatial and beautiful.

A garment is worn on the body, as if it were worn in a palace.

I don't know how to walk, I don't even know how to breathe.

Make the people who wear clothes look like they are back in the Victorian era.

Since the middle of the last century, when the era of Haute Couture has passed, many people have begun to feel that Haute Couture is dead, including many Haute Couture designers with official titles.

But far from dying, haute couture bucked the trend and grew after the subprime mortgage crisis and the financial tsunami.

Haute couture is just a different development model.

Today's haute couture will no longer take "magnificent" as its only appeal.

Using the most comfortable fabrics and making the most slim cuts is an idea that Yan Yun has had since he was a designer.

Whether it is clothes or shoes, Yan Yun doesn't want to let the overly gorgeous appearance cover up, the clothes are used for people to wear, not put in the cloakroom for exhibition.

Chanel is at the forefront of haute couture comfort.

Galeries Lafayette, who has enough capital to waste, has always been the most capricious.

When Yan Yun showed at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week last year (2014), he also went to see the Chanel press conference.

Galeries Lafayette ingeniously made the models wear sneakers and even knee pads.

This season's haute couture, Chanel focuses on the kind of corset, sparkling crop tops, ultra-slim waists, and sweet and agile skirts of the same color.

Then, under these elegant and sparkling dresses, a combination of sneakers and knee pads is directly used!

Galeries Lafayette's idea for the Haute Couture show has led the way to the major fashion weeks since January 2014.

After Chanel's haute couture, Chanel's ready-to-wear continued the same style.

Countless designers are competing to imitate it.

However, even if it is the creativity of Galeries Lafayette, as a designer, Yan Yun has times when he does not buy it.

Chinese costumes with sneakers, such a creativity, Yan Yun will not have, and he is not interested in imitating it.

Even the sneakers produced by Chanel's Massaro haute couture atelier, even if the shoes and clothes are the same color, even if the pearls, python textures, and coarse flowers on the clothes are carried over to the shoes, even if the lace of the shoes is lace, but the sneakers are sneakers.

If you have the ultimate figure, that is, the one with legs below the chest, wearing a dress with sneakers, in addition to being weird, the figure can still be reflected.

But if the average person wears it like this, it will be a disaster.

Yan Yun's design style is simple and elegant, with low-key luxury inside.

But in all her style genes, there is no DNA to put sneakers into the dress.

When it comes to shoes, Maison Yan II has always had its own insistence – only making leather shoes.

Yan Yun really hopes that the leather shoes he can put are designed to be as comfortable as sneakers.

But directly for the sake of comfort, Yan Yun has no way to accept such a thing as letting the model wear sneakers on the catwalk.

This season, the exploding head of the Chanel model is also a bit scary.

Although, the so-called annual fashion trends, popular colors, and popular styles are all formed by the accumulation of some relatively similar designs from different brands.

Yan Yun knew that Chanel's haute couture would be a big hit this season, because people who bought haute couture must not have bought sneakers and knee pads, Chanel has so many iron fans, and they will buy whatever Lafayette does.

But designers still have to have their own insistence.

…………………………

In addition to these "in-part" busyness.

A fastidious designer like Yan Yun will do some "extraordinary" things when he has a little free time.

Yan Yun once helped the first girl to customize a wedding dress at Maison Yan II, designing an entire wedding set and plan.

It's like designing your own launch.

Yan Yunyi said solemnly that she was designing the most perfect "catwalk" for her wedding dress.

Yan Yun is not the first, the Haute Couture designer who designed a wedding dress for himself and "matched" a whole wedding will not be the last.

Giving a bride-to-be who has come to her own brand of haute couture salon to customize a wedding dress is not the norm, but it is not too uncommon.

This kind of "service" is not Yan Yun's initiative.

It's just that other designers usually give some creativity and don't design the whole wedding by hand.

After the wedding dress was made, it was in a state of "unclaimed" for two years.

Yan Yun spent a lot of time, and there was nowhere to "put it" after thinking of good ideas.

Far from being angry, Yan Yun drew the realization of the entire creative process by hand two years later, after the completion of the high-end ready-to-wear show in Melbourne.

Not only that, Yan Yun also picked up his basic skills in the Mechanical System major at the University of Melbourne, and designed all the mechanical devices that needed to be used in the creative plan.
