(311) stunning cheongsam
Bai Zhixuan was a little puzzled and asked, "Old man, what are you looking at?" ”
The old tailor gave Daniel Zhang a thumbs up and praised: "Your kid's eyes are very poisonous, and the size is really exactly the same." You learn tailoring with me, don't waste this good talent. ”
Daniel Zhang looked at Bai Zhixuan and said with a smile: "I also want to worship you as a teacher, these skills of yours have no inheritance, and it will be the biggest loss for the country and the people if they are lost in the future." But I still have to study, and I really can't spare time. Or you wait two years, and I'll be free after the college entrance examination. ”
The old tailor said thoughtfully: "When you go to college and leave Yunshan, how can you have time to learn this?" It's not something you can learn in a month or two, it takes a long time. ”
Daniel Zhang packed the ticket and said, "Don't worry, I promise you something, I can definitely do it." Big deal, I'll take you over, take classes during the day, and learn tailoring with you at night? ”
The old tailor shook his head and sighed, "The old man is too old to endure a long journey, so let's talk about it when the time comes." Go in and try on your new clothes. ”
The tailor's shop is not big, and it is only about a dozen square meters in total. On the window side are his workbench and sewing machine, and on the inside side are shelves and cabinets, as well as several plastic models in clothes. One of the plastic models wore a bright red cheongsam with peony flowers embroidered with gold thread.
This is Daniel Zhang specially ordered a silk cheongsam for Bai Zhixuan, using the best silk fabric, and the golden silk peony flower is hand-embroidered, very gorgeous and exquisite. Such a cheongsam is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also extremely demanding on craftsmanship, so the price is also very high, and ordinary people cannot afford to wear it.
In fact, in the small place of Yunshan, it is extremely difficult to find a tailor who can make this kind of cheongsam. Daniel Zhang was lucky, and the old tailor happened to have this skill when he made a suit last time. This time, Bai Zhixuan asked him for a Christmas gift, and he immediately thought of finding an old tailor to customize a cheongsam.
The cheongsam given to Bai Zhixuan must be the best, not only the fabric must be of high quality in all aspects, but also the sewing technology must be very exquisite. The old tailor is very unusual, not only has the best craftsmanship in making clothes, but also has a good embroidery skill, which makes Daniel Zhang's idea come true.
This cheongsam was hand-drawn by Daniel Zhang according to the size of Bai Zhixuan, and then asked the old tailor to make it. It comes from a royal dress that Daniel Zhang saw in his previous life, combined with the style of modern cheongsam and modified, giving people a gorgeous and atmospheric feeling.
The old tailor didn't dare to do it at first, on the one hand, because it was not a measure of his own hands, and if it was not suitable, it would be in vain. On the other hand, this cheongsam is very high-end, the price of silk fabrics is high, and the peonies and other patterns embroidered with gold silk are labor-intensive and costly, and the loss of scrapping is something he can't afford.
Daniel Zhang paid the full amount in advance with a big atmosphere, patted his chest and guaranteed the ticket, and was responsible for all the results. In order to convince the old tailor of his visual measurements, a live performance was also performed. The old tailor was very surprised by Daniel Zhang's eyesight, so he agreed to make it according to the drawings.
The old tailor walked to the cheongsam with the two of them and said with a smile: "I don't know where you got the drawings, this kind of design is too complicated, and it really can't be done by another person." I've been a tailor for almost fifty years, and it's the most complicated garment I've ever made, and I don't think there's anything better to come. ”
Daniel Zhang took a closer look at the cheongsam and exclaimed, "Old man, your craftsmanship is simply amazing. Not only is the cutting and sewing technique extremely exquisite, but the peony flowers and dragon and phoenix patterns are also exquisitely embroidered, giving people a feeling of brilliance, and it is a pity that you live in seclusion here. ”
The old tailor shook his head and said with a smile: "Although the conditions of my life here are average, it is better to be idle, and there is no mess in the factory." Usually taking on some small jobs is enough to make a living, and taking on such a big job as you can eat for a year or two. The time saved is spent on researching skills, not to mention how beautiful the days are. ”
When the two were talking, Bai Zhixuan was already attracted by the cheongsam in front of her. She trained in Jiangyuan for a few months, and worked part-time as a model for others, and wore a lot of cheongsams. But it was the first time she had seen such a gorgeous and atmospheric cheongsam, and she couldn't take her eyes off it immediately.
The fabric of this cheongsam is very exquisite, and it is the highest red silk. The color of the silk is very positive, the surface is smooth and soft, and it feels excellent to the touch. Although this level of silk Bai Zhixuan was the first time she had seen it, she remembered what was recorded in the book and was able to determine its grade in her heart.
The embroidered patterns on the cheongsam are very complex, with gorgeous golden peonies as the main color, and dragon and phoenix patterns around it. These patterns are matched just right, with both the gorgeous atmosphere of traditional clothing and the bright colors of modern clothing, which gives people a great aura at a glance.
The gold thread for embroidering patterns is also a very high-end material, and in Bai Zhixuan's cognition, even a large garment factory in Jiangyuan may not have this material, let alone an ordinary tailor shop in Yunshan. It is a little strange that the old tailor was able to find such a high-grade material for embroidery.
Needless to say, the exquisiteness of these patterns is beyond Bai Zhixuan's cognition. These patterns have a three-dimensional feel and look like reliefs floating on the surface of the cheongsam. There are many patterns of Rui beasts on the hem and sleeves of the cheongsam, which looks vivid and lifelike.
Bai Zhixuan carefully rubbed the cheongsam, as if admiring a luxurious work of art. She had an expression of amazement on her face, and she wanted to say what to say, but she didn't know how to use it. Such a cheongsam is bound to be extremely expensive, but it is extremely rare to find a tailor with such exquisite craftsmanship.
The old tailor saw that the customer was very satisfied with his work, pointed to the corner and said, "Little girl, the dressing room is over there, you can put it on and try it." I suggest that this cheongsam should be worn with a white mink fur on the outside in winter, and white high heels on the feet, which will look more luxurious and gorgeous with red and white. ”
Bai Zhixuan nodded a little excitedly and said, "Thank you, old man, for your advice, I'll give it a try." ”
A moment later, Bai Zhixuan changed into a cheongsam and came out of the dressing room, and her gorgeous dress suddenly stunned Daniel Zhang. Bai Zhixuan is dressed very beautifully on weekdays, and wearing this cheongsam is even more bright and moving, three points more beautiful than usual, and Daniel Zhang only has the word "lying groove" left in his mouth.
This cheongsam was worn on Bai Zhixuan, which immediately made her graceful and luxurious. Bai Zhixuan is extremely beautiful, and she is a standard model figure, and every movement is elegant and chic. After putting on the cheongsam, she gave people a feeling of wealth and compelling, showing the style of an upper-class noblewoman.
