Chapter 301 The Real Costume Designer
ICC competition is the world's international fashion competition. It was founded in 2006 by the world-renowned fashionista Lafayette Karl Lagerfeld. It is a competition for new clothing designers.
The fashion career of Lafayette Karl Lagerfeld can be said to be legendary, but now he himself does not participate in too much work. After all, the old man is already 84 years old, and he has basically been in a leisurely retirement state for the past two years.
And the ICC competition has been held one after another, and all the designers who have shined in this fashion competition are now world-renowned designers.
As for the fashion department students of Central Saint Martins, it can be said that they are close to the water. There are no special requirements for the registration of the fashion competition, and it does not require you to be a family of a famous school or a wild self-study.
Anyway, it is impartiality and professionalism certified by the whole world, and strength is the most important.
After Lin Youshi returned to school, she devoted herself to the competition. Her mentor, Professor Corila, helped her sign up for the fashion competition, saying that it was for her to learn and gain experience.
For the students of the Academy of Art, participating in the competition is not just to get famous. Even if they can’t get a good result, they can learn a lot from it. It’s more like a course than a competition.
4-26 ICC Women's Wear Finals
"quick…"
"Are you ready?"
"Where are the high heels?"
……
The backstage of ICC is chaotic, everyone is busy with their own affairs, and every designer who goes to the end has a separate small dressing room. After all, considering some issues such as originality, design, and privacy, it will not All the designers and models share a big waiting room like the preliminary audition.
Lin Youshi did not expect that she would be able to make it to the finals. It was really unexpected.
The Asian face sitting on the chair in front of the makeup mirror is very eye-catching. When he is not talking, he is air-conditioned, but when he speaks, his expression is a little cute.
She was sitting there being put on by a makeup artist. When she saw Lin You behind her in the mirror, she didn't know whether she was acting like a baby or venting nervously.
"Youshi, I'm a little nervous..."
When Lin Youshi heard her words, he curled his lips into a smile and comforted him: "Xiujing O'Neil, your aura is definitely enough to control the scene, don't worry, it's the last one, and you've been here so many times before."
In recent months, Zheng Xiujing happened to be in London. I met her when I participated in the Spring Fashion Week. Lin Youshi asked her about her time, and asked her if she would like to be a model for herself. She participated in the fashion competition, but she didn't expect the two of them to reach the end hand in hand.
"I was nervous at the end. Check your high heels carefully. If you can't, change them to thick ones. I can walk smoothly."
Zheng Xiujing looked at Lin Youshi who didn't care at all and sighed helplessly, the emperor really didn't worry about the eunuchs, this is the finals, big sister!
Here the makeup artist finished applying makeup to Oh Soo-jin, Oh Soo-jin nodded her thanks, and the makeup artist left here.
Lin Youshi raised his left hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. There were only 20 minutes left before the opening preparations, and he smiled at Zheng Xiujing and said, "Hey, don't worry, my sister, this time I specially designed it for you to match the clothes. Got a new pair of shoes with low heels."
As he said that, Lin Youshi made a call. About five or six minutes later, someone knocked on the door of the dressing room, and a very delicate and lovely girl came in.
She bowed to Lin Youshi and Zheng Xiujing, and said in pure Seoul Korean: "Senior nim, I brought the clothes and shoes here, don't worry, no one else has seen them."
"Thank you, Hui Bin." Lin Youshi took the things and thanked the girl with a smile.
Fate is sometimes so inexplicable. The girl in front of him, Kim Hye Bin, is from Seoul, South Korea, but the fate of the two is because of Hye Bin's father who is a taxi driver.
Yes, she was when Lin Youshi took a taxi before, because the driver said that his daughter was her fan and wanted an autograph. Then Lin Youshi asked her name and left a note of encouragement. Unexpectedly, that girl was Huibin.
Jin Huibin was also admitted to Central Saint Martins fashion department. After meeting Lin Youshi on campus, Jin Huibin took the initiative to talk, and carefully took out the autograph paper that Lin Youshi had given her father before from the notebook he was holding.
It was only when I saw the memory of Lin Youshi that I saw the note that I remembered the incident. I thought she was a very good child through her father's description before, but I didn't expect to meet her by fate here.
The two who came and went exchanged contact information. Rather than saying that they are idols and fans, it is better to say that they gradually get along and become alumni or further friends.
And this time when Lin Youshi was preparing for the competition, Jin Huibin also recommended himself to help out, so Jin Huibin appeared here.
When Jin Huibin heard Lin Youshi's words, he waved his hands again and again and stuck out his tongue shyly: "Senior, you are too polite...Xiujing Ernie's makeup is so beautiful..."
Looking at Zheng Xiujing who was sitting next to him, Kim Hye Bin and Lin Youshi helped her change into the game clothes together, and praised with eyes shining: "Wow... so beautiful..."
Zheng Xiujing smiled and looked at Lin You and joked, "This should be attributed to the designer!"
Hearing Zheng Xiujing's words, Lin Youshi felt a little embarrassed: "What... I'm not considered a designer..."
"Maybe it will be fine after today." Zheng Xiujing looked at Lin You very seriously, her eyes were full of support.
Jin Huibin on the side also looked at Lin Youshi with a look of admiration: "Oni, Huai Ting, I believe in you."
For Jin Huibin, her life almost changed because of Lin Youshi. In her life as a good girl, her original plan was to get a job after graduating from college, and maybe an adult would introduce her to her.
Then step by step in the office typing text, typing on the computer, to be an ordinary white-collar worker, and when he is old enough to get married and have children.
But she resolutely applied for Central Saint Martins. Like a newborn baby, she made up her mind to do a good job in this profession. The more she got in touch with, the more interesting she was. Until now, she really fell in love with the sudden inspiration.
After changing clothes, she was about to change into high heels, opened the shoe box and Zheng Xiujing looked at the pair of shoes that Lin Youshi temporarily designed to match her outfit, her eyes were full of surprise: "Wow... will you sell these shoes to me after the competition? "
Lin Youshi nodded happily: "Okay, it was originally made according to your size."
As soon as Lin Youshi finished speaking, the voice of the staff came from the corridor outside: "Everyone, are you ready?"
"It's started..." Hearing the voice, Lin Youshi had a casual smile on his face, but Zheng Xiujing and the two next to him saw that it was inevitable.
"Holding up!"
Zheng Xiujing stretched out her hand to signal to cheer together, and Jin Hye Bin next to her immediately covered the back of Zheng Xiujing's hand with great insight, and Lin Youshi naturally did the same.
"Holding up!!!"
At 14:30 in the afternoon, the No.16 ICC International Fashion Competition Women's Wear Finals officially begins!
The venue, as always, was chosen to be at the University of the Arts London. After all, it is the best distance from the four major fashion schools. What’s more, it has hosted countless shows of world-renowned luxury brands and a competition for new designers. That's all, they are naturally more than capable.
The designer and the model left separately. When Lin Youshi came to the front, he did not know how many eyes he attracted along the way, guarded, vigilant, admired, envious...
After all, she has already scored 4 points so far, and she is already the highest scorer among the remaining twelve people, so in the final game, even if she gets one point, she will be tied for first place.
Oh... tied for first place with her when the people behind got 2 points.
After counting all the channels in a competition, there are only three points in total, but the precious three points can turn the clouds and change the fate, so it can be said that they are not taken lightly.
Everything is ready to start!
On the stage, each young lady has a tall and straight figure, a beautiful but a little indifferent expression, and she seems to be walking with wind, trying her best to show the best work of the designer.
After half of the time, Lin Youshi looked at his watch and it was already three o'clock. The index finger of his right hand unconsciously tapped the wristwatch of his left hand, and the corners of his lips curled slightly. It was time for Zheng Xiujing to come out.
And just when the pointer pointed to [-]:[-], an Asian face appeared on the stage, with cold eyes calm and calm, surrounded by an iceberg temperament that strangers should not get close to.
Wearing a pink Sicilian-style long layered gauze skirt, dazzling, the skirt is folded with delicate hollow patterns, and the fine tassels are flowing around the ankles.
It looks like a silk-like smooth fabric, and it seems to be able to reveal the color of the skin under the sunlight, which is sexy and fairy-like.
The gently floating skirt has exquisite embroidery, each stitch and thread is purely handmade, and the embroidered flowers add to the dynamic beauty of the clothes.
Layer upon layer, flowing with Zheng Xiujing's walking, but it seems to be very drapey. The patterns on the group seem to be extremely chaotic but very harmonious.
Zheng Xiujing was wearing a pair of pink velvet thick-heeled high-heeled shoes, about four to five centimeters high, which was very comfortable.
The shoes are lace-up high-heeled shoes that expose the top of the feet. Only the front toe and heel are covered with fabric. The ankle is a shoelace of the same color, which has a retro and elegant style.
But the most striking thing is the four to five centimeter heel, not an ordinary heel, the heel is gold and copper, but it is hollowed out.
Then there are small golden and copper-colored sticks around it, which look like a flower basket or a birdcage, and it really didn’t disappoint everyone. A few small pink and red roses spread out from the bottom of the hollow heel flower.
The rhizomes of the flowers are wrapped around the thin gold-copper sticks, and there is even a pink one that spreads all the way up to the upper of the back shoe, and barely stops at the fabric on the edge of the heel.
"Crack... Kick..."
"My God, this is the real work!"
"Oh! The model is Jessica Zheng's younger sister!"
The moment Oh Soo-jung appeared and instantly grabbed everyone's attention, the audience and the media, who were a little sleepy just now, seemed to be full of energy at this moment, as if they had filled a box of Red Bull.
"Ah...it's so beautiful...so beautiful..." Jin Huibin on the side even excitedly tugged at Lin Youshi's arm and kept shaking it. She seemed to have forgotten that when she first met Lin Youshi, that shy girl couldn't tell the whole story. Who is the talking girl?
It was only a one-minute display, and the whole space was agitated by Oh Soo-jin's appearance. They suddenly realized that what they were watching just now seemed to be a waste of time.
There is no need to compare the work of a truly qualified designer with the work of a new designer.
So even the costume works that appeared later seemed to suffer. It made everyone not in the mood to look at the later works, and just wanted to focus on it.
At four o'clock, all the entries were displayed.
The contestants returned to the stage to stand with their models, and the judges in the audience were having intense and heated discussions.
The expressions of the contestants on the stage were wonderful. Some of them stared at each other with a calm expression, some kept scanning the surrounding competitors, and some were muttering something with a sad face.
Lin Youshi also took a deep breath, and exerted a slight force on the hand held by Zheng Xiujing next to him, as if this could give each other a little strength.
The noise at the scene suddenly stopped, and the judges who had finished the discussion looked at the crowd with inexplicable and chilling smiles, and then another staff member handed over an origami from the side, MC He quickly picked it up, stood in the center of the stage again, and turned to the camera again.
Finally, when everyone's patience was exhausted by him, the host opened the origami, and the backstage background music sounded, making people nervous.
The host picked up the microphone again, put the unfolded origami in front of him, and announced word by word: "I announce that the champion of the No. 16 ICC International Fashion Competition is...YUSILIN!"
