Chapter 95: The Wedding Dress (1) (1st Update)

However, such a request is not a problem for Yu Sheng, a wealthy man who is now worth nearly 10 million US dollars. In this era, Shanghai's wedding dress was no longer popular. Most women are influenced by Western culture and begin to like snow-white and soft Western-style wedding dresses.

Moreover, this liking even goes to the point of blind worship. Being able to have a high-priced Western wedding dress is enough for an ordinary woman to remember for a lifetime. Like Qing Xiaoyi, it is really rare to be able to calm down and be picky about color. That is, the rest of his life, this person who has crossed over from the afterlife, will not feel too strange. In later generations, there were not only white wedding dresses, red wedding dresses, but even green and black wedding dresses.

For the rest of his life, when he was in later life, he saw a newlywed woman wearing a huge green hat and a green wedding dress to get married. and a model wearing a black wedding dress walking the catwalk. If these two wedding dresses are brought to this era, wouldn't it be to kill some old stubbornness.

Therefore, Qing Xiaoyi's request is not difficult to do. All you need is a Western-style red wedding dress. It's just that in China at this time, there are no fashion designers at all. After thinking about it for the rest of his life, he contacted Albert in Hollywood, thinking that as a Warner giant, it is still easy to find a costume designer in Hollywood, a fashion place second only to France, to customize a wedding dress.

In fact, it is not a custom for brides to wear wedding dresses since ancient times. The real popularity is only more than 100 years.

The rudiments of wedding dresses can be traced back to the dresses worn by the noble women of the three generations of the Minoan dynasty in ancient Greece from 1700 BC to 1500 BC. Later, this style of clothing gradually developed. This white gauze gown, with its hem mopping the floor, became the ceremonial dress of Catholics.

Since many principalities in ancient Europe were subordinate to the Holy See, they were essentially theocratic states. Therefore, at that time, people who got married had to go to the church to receive prayers and blessings from a priest or pastor. Moreover, only after this ceremony can it be officially considered a legal marriage, so the bride wears a white dress to show her sincerity and purity to God.

And this white ceremonial dress with a hem mopping the floor evolved into the bride's wedding dress style.

In the West before the 19th century, there was no uniform color specification for the bridal gown worn by young girls when they got married. Although it is still mainly white, there are also pink, blue, and other colors that are popular with girls.

In 1840, when Queen Victoria was married, Queen Victoria had the court's tailors sew an eighteen-foot-long gown with a white veil. The main fabric of this gown is made of Chinese satin and Western hand-woven lace. and inlaid with jewelry. It completely changed the tradition of British royalty wearing evening gowns and expensive fur coats.

With Queen Victoria's youthful beauty and noble temperament, wearing this white wedding dress naturally amazed the audience. The European royal families of that era were related to each other by marriage. Victoria's wedding was attended by all the ladies and maidens of the upper class of Europe. As a result, the white wedding dress has become one of the most popular wedding dresses in Europe!

Over time, this fashion became a custom. So much so that the white color on the wedding dress has evolved into a symbol of chastity and purity. Wedding dresses in other colors, such as pink and light blue, are only suitable for women who remarry. It is distinguished from a woman who is married for the first time.

However, Yu Sheng and Qing Xiaoyi do not believe in Western culture and customs, so it is good to learn from beauty, and the constraints can be ignored.

In the past few days, Albert has been analyzing Warner's profit points in the past two years, and intends to use this as a reference for the future development direction of Warner. However, after careful analysis, it was found that Warner's income with the highest profit margin in the past two years was not Warner's independent investment and shooting, but several movies that were introduced for the rest of his life!

From "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" to "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace", Warner is basically a million profits. Moreover, in the process of promoting these two films, many new sales channels have been inadvertently opened. This made Warner Bros. several overjoyed. And just as Albert was thinking about how to tie the rest of his life to the Warner ship, the transoceanic telegram for the rest of his life arrived.

Inform Albert that he is getting married, and invite Albert and Warner to the wedding. And, turn to Albert for help in finding a good wedding dress designer. After all, you can't get married without a wedding dress.

At this time, the United States, since the surrender of France, has become a gathering place for many fashion designers. Designers from Paris, France, have almost wiped out the money of Hollywood actresses. And this era is also the era of many masters of the fashion design industry, such as Chanel. Many of the clothes designed in this era are classic even before the rest of their lives are crossed.

So, Albert soon found a female fashion designer named Mary, who immigrated to the United States from Paris, France, had more than ten years of experience in the industry, and had designed wedding dresses, with her professional equipment and several assistants. Take a plane and go straight to Shanghai Beach. And, Albert made it clear that all the costs of making wedding dresses and hiring designers were counted on his head. This wedding dress can be regarded as a wedding gift for the rest of your life.

Although this Mary has the stubborn pride of the French, who thinks that French is the most beautiful language in the world, she has learned to speak English after a long time in the United States. It's just that the English level is not high, and it is not much different from Qing Xiaoyi. However, although this Mary was not well-known in later generations, her skills were not bad.

and Qing Xiaoyi spoke English that was not smooth, and between the comparisons, they followed Qing Xiaoyi's requirements and Qing Xiaoyi's figure, and designed Qing Xiaoyi's wedding dress. Moreover, both Mary and Qing Xiaoyi are both talented women, and between conversations, the natural friendship function between women germinated, and in just three or two minutes, Qing Xiaoyi and Mary became friends who could whisper to each other close to their ears.

During World War I, men in Europe suffered heavy casualties, a generation less. The normal maintenance of the economy and other functions of society is largely done by women. As a result, the social status of women has been greatly improved. And with independent income and real property rights. In addition, due to economic tensions and labor requirements, women's clothing is also required to be as simple and simple as possible.
