Chapter 100: Dior Men
After styling, for the model, it's a change of dress.
For Lin Yu, it is no exception.
In the previous life, Dior's men's collection was renamed Dior Homme in 2001, so Lin Zhengrong had never experienced Dior's men's and women's haute couture fashion show on the same stage in his previous life.
Because the Dior haute couture show in the usual sense is actually the Christian Dior haute couture show, which is the so-called women's haute couture show.
In this respect, the development of fashion in the two time and space is more than ten or twenty years apart.
The current creative director of Dior menswear is still Eddie Sliman, not his successor, Chris Wanaith.
Naturally, Lin Zhengrong attended the Dior men's and women's haute couture fashion show, and the works he wore were from Eddie's hands, not John Weville, because the Dior designed by this guy is Dior women's clothing.
Lin Zhengrong even guessed that it would not take long for Dior men's clothing to be split independently to form Dior-Homme, but this is Dior's business, not the focus that Lin Zhengrong should focus on.
It was this time that he attended the Dior haute couture show, which gave him a feeling of traveling through time and space.
Eddie Sleeman's designs emphasize perfect lines, but also stand out for her ultra-small sizes and the use of thinner young models for her campaigns.
This guy's preference for beauty has the same aesthetic style as the Lafayette Karl Lagerfeld in his previous life, and Karl Lagerfeld in his previous life was a very famous dieter in the fashion circle. Carl Lagerfeld, who was originally a fat man, lost 42 kilograms in 13 months because he wanted to wear the vampire-style Dior-Homme men's clothing!
This is a well-known anecdote in the fashion industry from a previous life.
This is an aesthetic that takes thinness as beauty, but it is somewhat morbid.
But it has always been popular, but in the past life or in the real world.
In contrast, Lin Zhengrong admires Reece Wanaisi, the successor of Eddie in his previous life, after all, the Dior man in charge of the other party has completely stepped out of the beauty of that narrow fashion, and has replaced it with a more body-appropriate tailoring and changeable design style.
In this way, the Dior man is more suitable for the masses.
But it's a pity that Lin Zhengrong is very slender now, and the proportions and lines of his body are in line with Eddie's design concept, so the clothes designed by the other party are not abrupt on his body.
The real sense of haute couture, that must get the body data of the guest room before the handicraft workshop will start customizing, but unfortunately, Lin Zhengrong belongs to the temporary queue, and the designer of Dior men's clothing cannot design clothes for him in just one day, and the same is true for chestnut.
Fortunately, the two of them are just a topic of publicity for the high-end show, and they are not heavyweight guests, so the clothes worn by other models on the catwalk will not look very abrupt on their bodies, after all, they also belong to the standard model figure.
However, Lin Zhengrong is learning design after all, but it is a past life or reality, and it is not men's or women's clothing, so Lin Zhengrong is also observing the dress he wears.
Generally speaking, Eddie Sleeman reinforces the focus with reverse pleats and piping at the cuffs, and the fitted upper body is paired with low-waisted, loose trousers;
Therefore, Eddie's design style is slim, and the pursuit is a kind of slim fashion, so the male models on the Dior men's fashion show are notoriously tall and thin, just like the female models on Chanel's runway.
Fashion Week is generally divided into spring and summer in February and March and autumn and winter in September and October, however, February and March are more and more held in autumn and winter, while September and October are spring and summer fashion shows, and the fashion shows of the current season are actually the opposite of the month.
Actually, it's all very understandable.
Because fashion is a concept in advance.
So it's already March, so Dior's debut in China is actually autumn and winter haute couture.
Because of a high definition, preparation is half a year.
Haute couture is a tedious process, with an average haute couture dress taking 100 to 400 hours to complete. Precise three-dimensional cutting, beautiful craftsmanship, and every stitch does not deviate from the theme. The production of a haute couture dress for an evening dress generally requires the collaboration of about 50 people to complete by hand, and the final product must not deviate from the original design by more than 5 mm.
This kind of design requirement that is a bit perverted to the extreme is only the pursuit that this kind of big-name designer can have.
If it were in the country, such a phenomenon would simply not exist.
Of course, haute couture is different after all.
It's not just women's clothing that has haute couture, but men's clothing is also haute couture.
After all, women have dresses, men also have dresses, and there are many types of dresses, and for women's dresses, there are evening dresses, small dresses, skirt dresses, and wedding dresses.
The same is true for men, and the types of men's dresses include tuxedos, boxer dresses, morning dresses, suit dresses, Yingqiao dresses, Korean dresses, etc.
Needless to say, Westerners wear tuxedos when they attend important occasions.
And Lin Zhengrong wears a tuxedo, and it is the most common style, the back hem is very long, which more and more sets off Lin Zhengrong's slender legs, and there is also a waist seal, so it has a good effect of shrinking the waist.
A tuxedo is a type of formal dress that is worn after 6 p.m., and in addition to a vest, a tuxedo style dress can also be worn with a chest and scarf to add a sense of formal glamour.
Anyway, it's just trying to get closer to the gorgeous direction of the palace, who made this thing high-end.
Because he was wearing a tuxedo, it was impossible for Lin Zhengrong to finish wearing it alone, after all, in addition to pants, there was also a waist seal, and there was no way to wear a waist seal.
Similarly, a dress shirt with it is not an ordinary shirt, but a dress shirt.
Dress shirts are meant to be worn with dresses, and they are divided into different collar shapes and designs. The chest can be in a solid color, with a piece of coarse cloth or a folded detail, and the color and fabric can be chosen according to the wearer's preferences and needs.
The buttons on the chest need to be equipped with 4 additional buttons, instead of the buttons of ordinary clothes, and there are also designs that hide the buttons.
However, Lin Zhengrong is indeed wearing a pure white silk shirt now.
I don't know if it was selected to match tonight's women's dress, anyway, he is just a model, how to dress and match, in fact, has little to do with him, it is something that designers need to think about.
But no matter what, when he appeared in a straight tuxedo in everyone's sight, he still won a burst of praise from everyone.
Especially when I was waiting backstage, I suddenly met Zhou Xin, an acquaintance.
Then this senior sister did not hesitate to praise herself, "So handsome!"
