Volume 1 Chapter 50 Cloth is never sold
Wan Rou knew that Aunt Li was going out to sell clothes, and she had been looking forward to it all morning. It was easy to see my mother come back, but I didn't see the clothes, only some fabric. But it's okay to cut your own new clothes, but those fabrics are all defective! Her face was ugly, and her mouth was pouting.
Don't make me cry and mourn, you grind your teeth when you are young! Aunt Li was in a good mood, and scolded with a smile, you don't understand, these only cost less than two taels of silver. If you look at this suit and touch the quality, it's just a white pickup. I've looked at it carefully, and if the dyed parts are cut properly, they can be caught in the places that are not obvious, and the embroidery patterns are becoming more and more invisible. You'll love it when I'm done, and it's time to put it on and take it off.
Aunt Li took a break and immediately started to help, as if she was helping with Wanrou. Aunt Li is really good at being a red girl, but after a few glances, she can cut it out. The three of them worked until midnight to make a dress. Wan Rou couldn't wait to try it on, and she screamed excitedly.
Mother, this style is so novel, and the colors and patterns are also beautiful. And the fabric is thick and has a good sense of falling, so it is especially beautiful when walking. She looked in front of the mirror vigorously, back and forth, left and right, and turned in circles from time to time.
Aunt Leigh looked at it carefully, well, it would be more perfect to pinch half an inch inside of her waist. Hurry up and take it off, modify it, and embroider it again tomorrow. For the chiaroscuro embroidery that is fashionable at the moment, Aunt Li is not too sure. However, with her years of embroidery foundation, she can also figure out one or two. The so-called light and shade are naturally the use of different shades of silk threads to create different levels. Come to think of it, it should be no more difficult than double-sided embroidery.
The mother and daughter rested for half the night, and got up early the next morning to work. The chrysanthemum banquet in the Li Mansion was three days later, and the time was a little tight.
Yuyi saw that the two sisters had not shown up for two or three days in a row, so she asked the other sisters to come over to visit. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Wanrou wearing new clothes and looking in the mirror, and I felt amazing when I saw it.
Such a beautiful dress, it seems to be the latest style this fall. Look at the workmanship and materials, it's a thing of Splendid Workshop, right? Yuyi looked at it for a while and said with a smile, the essence in her eyes flashed.
The things in the splendid workshop are ridiculously expensive, which everyone in the capital knows. Especially the custom-made clothes, a set will cost more than 100 taels, and if you want a unique version, you have to add silver. And their shop never takes the civilian route, specializing in the business of rich and statused people. But as long as there is a dress in the photo, he will buy the unique version without hesitation, and it is the only three words.
The capital is said to be big and big, and small is small, and the ladies and girls who mingle in the circle come and go. If you occasionally wear the same clothes, and you immediately distinguish between the superior and inferior, those who want to fall into the wind will inevitably feel embarrassed to lose face, and others will inevitably see jokes. But the clothes in the splendid workshop are not cheap, and a set of clothes is worn out for entertainment once, and the next time you can't wear it again, it is indeed a waste for people with more girls in the family. Besides, not everyone has such strength and can afford such a face! Therefore, most people still use needlework and thread to buy good fabrics and refer to the current fashionable style.
We girls do it ourselves. Aunt Li saw that her nieces were coming, so she hurriedly asked the girl to serve tea.
Yuyi heard a little strange, walked to the inside of the clothes, and looked for a while before seeing the pattern of a begonia flower.
Aunt lies! Yuyi is Aunt Li's niece, speaking naturally with coquettish intimacy, the begonia flower inside is a unique symbol of the fabric of the Splendid Workshop, the six-petal double stamen, if it is placed in the sun, you can clearly see the word 'Splendid', but the light is behind but you can't see it. I heard that there are many sayings about this method alone, and other businesses try to imitate it, but they can't imitate it.
It was the first time I had heard such a rarity, Aunt Li and others took a closer look, and in the backlight, they only saw a vivid embroidered begonia flower; When I took it to a sunny place, the word splendid appeared.
It's amazing! Wan Rou shouted in surprise, what is the reason?
Silly girl, if we know, Fairview can still make a lot of money? Yuyi replied with a smile, but she was strange in her heart. The high-end fabrics woven and dyed by the splendid workshop are never sold, and they are made into high-end clothes and then sold. At that time, the splendid workshop appeared in the capital, and this special business model caused a sensation and was very successful. In less than a year, Jinxiufang has become the most famous shop in the capital. They put forward a slogan, what is the quality, classics, inheritance, the common people do not understand, anyway, people with status and status wear the clothes of the splendid workshop.
Moreover, the clothes made by the splendid workshop are novel, there are new styles every season, as long as you enter the shop, there will always be clothes you like; As long as you are willing to spend money, you are guaranteed to return satisfied. In the past two years, Jinxiufang has become a representative of identity, status and taste. I heard that there are people who look like little eunuchs and palace maids who have gone to Jinxiufang to buy clothes, and more than once, it must be the order of a noble lady.
A relative of the guy in Jinxiufang said that it was the concubine in the palace who sent someone out to buy it, just for the favor of Emperor Bo. There are also guys from Jinxiufang who said that the first time was Concubine Xi Niangniang sent someone to buy it, but the second time it was Concubine Rong's person. It must be that Concubine Xi wore the clothes of the Splendid Workshop and won the praise and favor of the emperor, and Concubine Rong also let people buy it in order to compete for favor. Rumors are flying all over the sky, and they are even more exciting than storytelling. No matter what the truth is, Splendid Workshop is becoming more and more famous, as long as there is a new style coming out, the guys in the shop will be busy.
This fabric is obviously a high-end product, and the good materials of Splendid Workshop are never sold! Yun Yi seemed to be chatting casually.
Seeing that Aunt Li and Wan Rou's faces changed and returned to normal, as if they wanted to speak, they caught a glimpse of their mother and sister's faces and swallowed back. Youyi saw it clearly, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, could it be that the origin of this fabric is greasy?
Auntie, the embroidery on this is the most fashionable chiaroscuro embroidery at the moment? Embroidery has been studying the embroidery on clothes since she came in, and she is obviously very interested.
I tried to embroider indiscriminately, although it is not as many layers as light and dark embroidery, but it can also be seen. Aunt Li wished that someone would divert Yunyi's words, so she hurriedly replied with a smile, "Among the sisters, you are the best red girl, you can help your aunt." As he spoke, he brought the needlework over.
Xiuyi couldn't wait to learn, so she sat down next to the kang.
