How far in advance do I have to prepare a fashion show?

If the clothes can keep up, it's better to be as long as a year in advance.

- The director will definitely answer like this, anyway, determining the design drawing, the theme of the fashion show, the budget, the choreography, the lighting, and finally determining the model, it is enough for a team of 50 people to be busy for several months, in the case of the annual Victoria's Secret show, as soon as the lights of the show in November go out, the designer began to prepare for the theme of next year's fashion show. Distribution of invitations, advertising and PR cooperation, fitting rehearsals...... Don't go to dinner with the director for a month before Fashion Week, if he has a show – of course, if you're a good friend, that's a different story, a good friend wouldn't mind being a human punching bag and letting him vent his stress at this time.

This is a fashion show of a regular big brand, and everything is naturally simpler for the personal brand that has just started, but Qiao Yun's brand is also an outlier that Fu Zhan has seen, probably a student like her who went solo after graduating from the fashion college, and in the first few years, she had to wait for the opportunity in the studio of her former store and back factory, and when she could really go to Fashion Week, it was no longer a solo flight. ——Large clothing groups will consider strategically investing in some personal brands, and at that time, less than half of the share of this brand belongs to the designer himself, or worse, the designer just hangs a name, and the whole brand has been bought out by the large group at a very cheap price.

It can't be said that the big groups are bullying people, the platform and funds they can provide, and the connections are also resources that the designer himself cannot access, and the cheapest money for a clothing show is two or three hundred thousand yuan, which is almost half a year's turnover of the general personal brand, how can the owner afford it without the financier? Unless they are all local tyrants like Qiao Yun, take the money earned from Taobao to fill in their own brands, just this autumn hit, Fu Zhan helps her calculate, and the gross estimate is at least five or six million profits, if she is not distracted by her self-created brand and sends a few more popular matches, this girl can really become a walking money printing machine.

If she has money, she is willing to throw it away, and the small booth of Shanghai Fashion Week has to spend money to smash it into style, will she smash millions into the most dreamy fashion show in Beijing Fashion Week? She must be the best in everything, stage choreography, lighting, props, these are as important as models, maybe even more important. - Fu Zhan has some phones in his palm, and now he starts to contact him, he just doesn't know if Qiao Yun will give him this opportunity and owe him this favor.

"Why do you think you're thin?"

Unexpectedly, Qiao Yun didn't recruit an assistant, and even the pattern maker was indebted, it was she who came to open the door, looking at the spacious studio, it was still the same as last time, full of traces of her inspiration - she was indeed preparing for the autumn and winter exhibition, the fake model was already wrapped in fur, Fu Zhan's attention was attracted back and forth between the designer and her design, and both sides wanted to take a closer look, it was simply a pain to choose, and finally returned to Qiao Yun. "-Tired and sick a while ago?"

Miss Qiao is thinner than before, and she looks a little more than before, this 'what' is indescribable, hovering in the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, making her story fuller and more attractive, and also making Fu Zhan secretly frightened: a girl like her, she really can't rest assured if she doesn't keep an eye on it, God knows that the last time they met was only a little more than a month ago, who knew that she would change a little bit in more than a month. There are too many suitors, and it's really not good to be alert.

But how easy is it to keep an eye on it? With Miss Qiao's temper, I am afraid that if you are a little anxious, you will be directly out. Fu Zhan knew that it was really useless to be anxious, at this time, he had to wait - he just felt the pain of waiting more and more, and then he slowly realized that the previous cloud was light and light just because he didn't care so much.

"Is there one?" Qiao Yun touched his face and sloppily with him, "Maybe I'm tired, how can I conclude that I'm sick?"

"Looking a little haggard, I feel like I've been sick. Fu Zhan said.

Qiao Yun looked at him like that, the corners of her mouth hooked up a little sly, as if she knew it, Fu Zhan was looked at by her for a few seconds, and confessed to herself, "Mr. Chen and I talked about it unintentionally." ”

"Chen Indigo's mouth should be tighter. Qiao Yun didn't seem to be smiling, but she didn't get angry, she just stood in front of him, Fu Zhan moved a step, she also moved a step, she stretched out two fists for him to choose, "Do you want to listen to gossip or look at design?"

"Only one or the other?"

"Of course, you can only choose one supermodel. Qiao Yun squeezed her eyes at him and made an insatiable expression.

Fu Zhan was amused by her, "As long as the supermodel, do you want the lighting, what about the choreographer?"

"You don't know who my teacher is?" Qiao Yun's eyes flashed, and she smiled shallowly and reservedly. "Didn't you investigate me, Mr. Fu?"

Of course this is impossible, even if he doesn't, Mandy has to do a tracking file, Fu Zhan was slightly stunned: I really forgot, people are famous, Professor Gu Jie is the first batch of designers in the country to open a fashion show, and more times on behalf of Chinese clothing to go abroad for exhibitions, not to mention the top level in China, even large foreign companies may not have been in contact.

"Then you still want me to pull the strings?" he simply gave up and went back to sort out the album he brought, looking discouraged.

He was about to retreat, so she really came over and gave a sweet date, "Hey, you can't use the teacher's connections for everything—you have to give the young man a chance!"

After saying that, he laughed again, Qiao Yun was dressed plainly in private, wearing high-waisted skinny jeans today, a plain black T pierced into it, and a little thread was glued to it, her hair was casually curled, and some broken hair was brushed behind her ears. In the autumn sunshine, Fu Zhan almost couldn't take his eyes off when he smiled, "I won't look at the design first, I'm still making the first batch of samples, and my ideas are not fixed. ”

Many designers have quirks, and Qiao Yun doesn't seem to welcome criticism of her designs from outsiders - Fu Zhan realizes that he is indeed an outsider with unprecedented anxiety, his fingertips are itching, and he wants to flip through the sketches and discuss with her the ideas contained in the design, the inspiration and themes of the series -

He mobilized what little patience he had left, and suppressed the gradual commotion, "Are you using Chen Indi's pattern maker or do you play the board yourself?" I know that designers like perfection, and pattern making is not your weak point, but you don't have to do it yourself if you can outsource—you usually have to take care of Taobao, and even make the pattern by yourself, can you be busy? How about introducing you as a pattern maker for free? It's not a favor." ”

Generally speaking, a good designer is also a good pattern maker, because a bad pattern can completely ruin a good design - but most good designers rarely make patterns themselves, and they are more inclined to hire a good pattern maker when they have money. Fu Zhan was really worried that she did it herself because Chen Indigo didn't have a good patternmaker - he even suspected that the clothes they made were Qiao Yun's own version, and he was really afraid that Qiao Yun would be tired and sick, a fashion show had at least thirty or forty clothes, and the designer who held the show for the first time would inevitably have a dead line problem in the end, and if he still had to personally control the fashion show, the candles burned at both ends, it was really possible that he couldn't support it.

As always, Qiao Yun was noncommittal about his kindness, this woman was really a bit fox and suspicious. "Taobao, what else is there to take care of?

Speaking of Taobao, she rushed to the computer to Nunu, and Fu Zhan's eyes instinctively followed: the computer had not yet entered the screensaver, and the excel sheet was lit up on the screen, and the word i could be vaguely seen. "You're doing sales forms?"

"Looking at the sales cousin. Qiao Yun corrected him, "I'll ask Chen Di to make a table of the daily sales changes for me." ”

"How's it going?

"No, the growth rate has become faster, and these two knitwear together, should be able to match the amount of pants, more than T. Qiao Yun was very wary of design, and she kept her promise on Taobao, and told him that she didn't cover it up, "After all, it's autumn, and the number of T-shirts purchased here in the north is significantly less than in the south." ”

"In terms of unit price, knitwear can be on par with pants, which is a good performance. Fu Zhan was surprised: a pair of pants is only more than 100, of course, the amount is large, and the knitwear is close to 300 for a single piece, and it can also go to this amount, which shows the success of these two items. "Is this a deliberate attempt to stir up a topic to increase sales?"

"Have you ever seen such a sacrifice of the ego to achieve the sales of a single product?" Qiao Yun scolded with a smile, giving a white eye, Fu Zhan ate the white eye as if he was eating an olive, and the aftertaste was endless. "I didn't arrange the people who hacked me - those two knitwear were indeed not i, they were my own design, and I was going to find someone to scold them, but the person I was looking for hadn't done it yet, but someone took the lead. ”

Her eyes narrowed, as if she was sneering at the enemy in the dark, her ink-like eyebrows pressed down, the slightest coldness, and the tail of her eyebrows raised arrogantly. "In terms of tearing, who can compare to me?—— he better not let me find out who he is......"

Qiao Yun's self has long been sharp in the design, Fu Zhan has admitted that he is good at this - he suppressed the higher eagerness, he wanted to bully him to steal a kiss, starting from his fingertips, every inch of skin was burning with an itch that needed to be appeased, a hug was the best antidote - but he couldn't, he had to hold back, and he couldn't take this step yet.

"I kind of don't get it. So he indulged his delusions, not worrying about whether he would appear too stupid in front of her. "You're doing this to ......"

"No one will understand. Fortunately, Qiao Yun didn't care, she first answered simply, and then explained after a pause, "I want to test my ability to drive popularity." ”

"Huh?" Fu Zhan felt that he had a stupid look on his face: This still needs to be doubted?

Daise bags, ACNE, Alexander Wang, and even Balenciaga's classic bags, Roman shoes...... Which of these items or brands is not unknown in China, but is all due to the pandemic brought by her alone? Alexander Wang's sales in the Asia-Pacific region have increased eightfold this year, and they have set aside a corner for it, and Fu Zhan's colleagues are now talking to them about the introduction of agents...... Will she doubt her ability to drive the epidemic?

"So if you don't understand, no one will understand. Qiao Yun seemed to be pleased by his blankness, looked at him a few times, and suddenly couldn't help laughing.

- It was a mockery, a bit of a faux pas, so she quickly covered her mouth, but she could not help but snort from her throat, and her eyes were crooked and filled with a merry smile, glancing at him and quickly drifting away. After a while, I controlled myself, quickly put down my hands and sat upright, coughed a few times and pretended to be fine. "In short, everything is under control, thank you Mr. Fu for your concern. ”

Fu Zhan blinked, blinked, and gradually came back to his senses, but there was still some ptsd—he felt a great danger, like a pair of hands reaching out from behind the curtain of the sky, trying to grab him, peel off every disguise on his body, and present all his desires naked. Of course, it was extremely rude, and it would scare his target away, but he just- couldn't resist, couldn't disguise, lost control just between the trembling of his fingertips-

“…… That's good. He said weakly, biting the inside of his cheek to keep him awake with the help of the pain. “…… By the way, here are a few styles I picked, Miss Qiao, you think about it - if you can see it, just call me...... Forget about the payment or something, with your contribution to sales, this is what the company should give. ”

This is the truth, Dai Fei Bao's sales in the Asia-Pacific region this year are outstanding, and now the cherry blossom powder is out of stock, and the reservation order is scheduled for next year, this star item makes the sales director beaming, and his forehead is shining. Such live advertisements are willing to memorize designated money, and it is natural to give gifts.

Qiao Yun didn't refuse, looked down at the album, Fu Zhan made marks on several key paragraphs - he took advantage of the situation to get up and say goodbye, and wanted to stay any longer, but he couldn't help but go.

Before leaving, I knew that I shouldn't, but I couldn't help it, "Can I borrow the bathroom?"

Miss Qiao had already entered the working state, burying her head in the circle of single products, nodding her head casually when she heard the words, as if she did not expect that when she went to the bathroom from here, she would inevitably pass by the workbench blocked by the whiteboard. - But Fu Zhan intensified his control of himself, when he went with his back to Qiao Yun, the angle was not appropriate, he didn't look at it much, and when he came out, he saw that she was not paying attention, so he was careful and indulged his gaze.

There are several movable whiteboards, almost blocking all sides, and his angle is not much, just a small piece, you can see the workbench inside, and the raised cushion table behind the workbench, the fake mold on the cushion table, the dress on the fake mold-

Fu Zhan was only about to take one look and leave, but he looked at it three times, no, more than three eyes, he looked at it for an incalculable period of time, the self-control he had been working so hard to maintain was wiped out in that instant, and the world began to destroy in absolute silence, he shouldn't have looked, he should have thought that this moment was like fate, he tried his best to avoid it, but in the end it was still difficult to avoid, messing up everything-

He suddenly came back to his senses - Qiao Yun was still reading the album, and thankfully, she didn't notice that she was still peeping at her design.

Fu Zhan didn't know how he said goodbye to her, he seemed to be drowning all the time, and his ears were buzzing, all the sound of water. He returned to the office in despair, stared at the computer for a long time, and suddenly jumped up to get the phone as if he had been pricked by a needle.

"Mr. Huang. He struggled to regain his usual ease, but the greetings were still shorter than before. "Aren't you acting as an agent for the brand [Yun]?...... Last time at Fashion Week, I saw you, and you're around the corner—"

Mr. Huang was a little afraid of him, although it was a trade secret, but he still revealed some information: yes, the first batch of orders for [Yun] has arrived, and it is a leather jacket, in order to catch up with the late autumn and early winter...... Sales ......

A few minutes later, Fu Zhan hung up the phone, his hands on his chin in a tower, his eyes unfocused, wandering ablankly on the gray wall.

It was a fresh feeling - he hadn't had many similar experiences in his twenty-plus years of life, but the fact was so stark that he couldn't ignore it:

1. Qiao Yun is a talented designer;

2 He wanted to be involved in her design, and of course there were many more to follow;

3 But she didn't want to include him—she had everything she needed to succeed, connections, money, the positive reaction of the market, she was on her way to success, and it didn't seem to matter if she had him or not;

4 His intentions are likely to end in failure.

Fu Zhan has never dealt with similar situations, really, generally speaking, he has a way to get what he wants, his troubles are mainly focused on how to get rid of those things he doesn't want, too many people want to leave a little trace in his life, how to clarify the attitude without being polite has always been a problem. But the other way around?

It may have been a joke, but at this moment, he had never wanted it so eagerly, but he had never been so soberly aware that there was a great possibility that he would not get it—Miss Qiao might have a little affection for him, but that favor was written on a piece of paper, and it was gone as soon as the wind blew, and he needed time to etch this emotion little by little, but the least thing now was time. For the first time, he knew that people could be so anxious that they couldn't care about their manners, but he-

Fu Zhan took a deep breath, he closed his eyes tightly, trying to squeeze his eyeballs into his brain, "Calm, calm......"

Miss Joe doesn't need him right now, that's a fact—but that's okay, facts can be changed, all you need is a little patience, and—

Here's their motto: When reality doesn't go your way, take a deep breath, keep your heart rate level, then pull out a pen and start planning to change reality.

Fu Zhan did the same, he took a deep breath, waited until his heartbeat was stable, and then began to think.

#

Everyone has their own world, and Qiao Yun didn't know that she had inadvertently made Fu David almost develop a psychic ability - she saw his voyeurism, but she didn't care, it was nothing to take a look, just don't point fingers at the unfinished products, maybe she was angry in the past, and now she has a kind of monopoly on her work, and she doesn't like to be interfered with in the creative process.

I didn't care about his hasty departure, she was seriously studying the key models in his circle, and seeing how to match it with the outfit later: Fu Zhan was quite sincere, he didn't take the unsalable money to inventory, and the circles were the main items of various brands, but most of the brands were a little unpopular. This makes Qiao Yun also look up to him - compared with the classic model of Tui LV, this is the most win-win way to cooperate with Internet celebrities, in Internet celebrities, introduce more unpopular big names, so that fans feel that they are also learning fashion knowledge when they read posts, and increase trust and worship, in the brand, save tens of millions of advertising costs, and accurately put advertisements to fashion-sensitive people without effort, isn't it more effective than carrying a well-known verfull?

BV's woven bag appeared in the key recommendation again this time, but it was changed to a low-key color, it seems that Fu Zhan is very optimistic about this brand, the corners of Qiao Yun's mouth twitched, think about it or make a mark, give him a face - maybe, the knitwear has proved that her current appeal is enough to lead the trend, that is, pink woven bags can actually give a face - forced to at least support the consumption of a strange item.

Thinking of i knitwear, her thoughts turned again, she moved back to the computer, opened q.q, looked at a long list of contacts and muttered one by one: pushing these two knitwear, and the subsequent development, all parties are puzzled, and they also have their own guesses, Qiao Yun only communicated with Chen Indigo in advance - in fact, he didn't understand very much, just blindly trusted her judgment, Chen Indigo is bold in this regard, millions of profit margins and Internet celebrities' career future are pressed up, he didn't say a word, as if he didn't feel a little pressure.

The real reason, she hasn't told anyone, and of course no one can understand: for them, she has brought out countless popular styles and discovered a large number of niche brands Internet celebrities, and her aesthetics and ability to bring trends do not need any question, but Qiao Yun knows that Alexander Wang's frigidity style of pants, including Dai Fei Bao and Dumpling Bun, is actually a historical necessity. Without her, they would have become crazy sooner or later, and at best, she was just a ride, using these must-have items to build her popularity.

These two knitwear are her throwing stones to ask for directions, and she wants to see how far her influence has accumulated: the brand i is in another timeline, and there is basically no sense of existence in China, their style is not fairy, and there is a distance from the frigidity, colorful, a little bohemian playful. Maybe the audience can't feel it, but from the perspective of the times, wearing this now is a bit against the trend of history, if this can be worn by her...... Then, how high this bohemian colorful knitwear wind can blow, how high her popularity and influence can be estimated.

Deliberately designed two knitwear, it is also to eliminate interfering elements, of course, because Qiao Yun really doesn't have time to restore the technology used by i, as for this forgery being exposed, it is naturally expected, the next plan, she did have already arranged, even if others were slow and didn't find out, she also had a plan to direct and act.

…… I didn't expect someone to play so much, the one who posted her * was obviously organized and planned, Qiao Yun asked the naval company she was looking for to inquire about the mastermind behind the scenes, and the other party was also embarrassed, "We also have professional ethics, Miss Zhang ......" - I really thought her name was Zhang Li.

No, it's okay, and I didn't expect you to find it. Taking advantage of Fu Zhan's early farewell (maybe it's diarrhea, I'm embarrassed to always run the toilet at her house, so I went to the bathroom once and said goodbye with a weird face), she had a little space, Qiao Yun squinted, and her fingers went from top to bottom to brush the q.q avatar on the screen-

"It's up to you!" she clicked on a tulip, "Go ahead!"

——Among the more than 30 Taobao shopkeepers, you are the most suspicious!

[Sister Fang, are you there?]

The other party replied quickly, after all, almost all of them were online when they did Taobao.

I usually call people Xiao Tiantian, but now I'll get back, Qiao Yun made a note in her heart, but her typing tone was still very apologetic, [That, Sister Fang, let me tell you, I may not post this kind of advertising post in the future, I will return the money you gave me before, you give me an account number]

Lin Xiaofang typed a lot this time, [What's wrong?]

[You must have seen the forum too......] Qiao Yun sent a series of crying faces, [I don't even want to post Actually, I just wanted to share the beautiful clothes with you at first, but I didn't expect it to make such a big fuss in the end...... I haven't been able to eat well and sleep well lately, 55555......]

Lin Xiaofang comforted her for a while, [The turmoil will definitely pass, don't go to your heart, those people are neurotic], Qiao Yun just cried, saying how difficult it was for herself, for the sake of aesthetics, she actually didn't take much of the advertising post, she looked disheartened and escaped from the red dust at any time, and when the scene was seven or eight points, she wiped her tears and began to explain the 'aftermath'.

[Anyway, I've already made up my mind now, Sister Fang, I'm really sorry, I feel that the one I'm most sorry for is you - I was too busy a while ago, and I didn't bother to explain to you for an internship in the company. It's just this time that I showed off that Alexander Wang's short-sleeved T, and I actually think I should have told you beforehand, after all, you also wanted to do it, and you came to me first. 】

[This matter, how to say it, Qingzhuzi's side, I made an appointment for this time to show off a set very early, but I came to me at the beginning of the month, asking if I could change the top to this t, I wanted to talk to you at the time, but I didn't think it was good. I'll just say to Qingzhuzi if you can't change it, I don't want to be sorry for you]

[You and Qingzhuzi said that I want to do it too?] Lin Xiaofang even changed her comforting tone for a moment - she must have cared about this matter in her heart, how could she not care if she robbed the money, so Qiao Yun listed her as the first suspect, even if she was not the mastermind of this matter, she would definitely actively participate if she had the opportunity.

[I didn't say it, I just said that there was a customer who also wanted to do it before, and she made an appointment first, and Qingzhuzi asked me if he had given up. I said that I didn't talk to me about this model recently anyway, and it's going to be out of season, maybe it's going to be changed, but if I don't have this accuracy, I'm not good at picking up other people. 】

[Qingzhuzi said that they actually got the goods all of a sudden, and a customer asked the factory to order thousands of pieces, and then suddenly they didn't want it, the people left, and the factory dumped the goods at a low price, and they thought it was cost-effective. He said that it was a big wholesaler named Sister Zhang, and asked me if I was ordered by Sister Zhang. 】

[I said, no--but I know that Sister Zhang has a close relationship with you, so I can't be sure, and you really haven't been looking for me...... In the end, I agreed to change money. 】

[Now that I think about it, I should actually say hello to you, and I should also ask Sister Zhang, in fact, Sister Zhang also looked for me before, and I don't know if you are together, but you haven't communicated well...... But now she can't be contacted, and there are still 200,000 yuan with me, I don't dare to move, thinking about returning ......]

【…… What 200,000?]

[Did Qingzhuzi tell you when Sister Zhang's batch of goods was ordered?]

[You give me a bit of time - no, you just tell me that Sister Zhang decided to make this, whether it was before or after I decided to ????]

After singing for a few minutes, Lin Xiaofang's side finally responded, and it was a machine-gun-like question - her first concern was also in Qiao Yun's heart, vaguely suspicious.

"It's you......"

"I said why did you organize it so quickly and hack, old friend, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're tearing me again......"

The corners of her mouth jumped up a little smile, interesting, calm, cat and mouse, Qiao Yun shook her head, and sighed with a smile, "Alas, Sister Zhang, ......" 166 Reading Network
