Chapter 71 Baby Dance
The head of the clothing department received a big order.
He immediately found several contestants whose works won the campus fashion competition and asked them to customize high-end clothing overnight.
Hear these words.
Several girls from the clothing department jumped up excitedly.
The domestic clothing industry emphasizes seniority.
Generally speaking, a newcomer needs to work with a designer for at least 10 years before he or she has a chance to succeed.
And most of them are also fascinated by international designers.
Many people plan to study abroad.
But the tuition fees for studying abroad are very expensive.
For things like pattern making and sampling, you also need to buy the fabrics yourself, and not everyone can afford to go abroad to learn.
Most of the people who come to study fashion design have dreams.
Four years of college were enough to extinguish this dream.
The quickest way to stand out is to attend domestic celebrity award ceremonies, where celebrities can wear their own clothes on the red carpet.
But there are many experts in the fashion industry.
Many big names may not be able to accept the favor of celebrities, let alone students like them who have not yet entered society.
Everyone was very excited to receive the notice from the department head this time, thinking that the opportunity had come.
But the department head said that the institution doing high-end customization this time is different, it is a kindergarten.
"Ah!" someone said in disappointment.
The department head said, “But there is money.”
One of the quieter girls asked the department head what he meant.
The department head said, "The kindergarten is having a baby ball. We'd like to have custom-made outfits for each child, preferably original designs from you."
"The requirement is that the fabrics must be child-friendly. Minimize the use of rhinestones and sequins to prevent children from picking at them. So we need to highlight our capabilities while reducing any unnecessary bulk. This is the largest order we've received this year!"
“How much is the investment?”
"200,000."
“How many sets?”
"122 sets. They've already sent me the children's height and weight."
Some smart friends have already started calculating, and the price of a set is 1,600.
This is really not low.
The head of their fashion design department will have some connections.
I have previously taken on custom-made Hanfu costumes, including customized square dance costumes, but the most common ones are customized performance costumes.
This time the budget is sufficient and the money given is large.
No wonder the department head attaches so much importance to it this time.
Children don't need much fabric. Still a very good sheet.
"How long will it take?" the quiet girl asked again.
Others also paid attention. This is indeed a crucial issue.
The department head said, "You have one week to customize this thing to the highest standards. Don't mess around."
One week is too fast.
The department head said, "Each of you will receive 20 sets. Start designing now. I'll review the drafts tomorrow and show them to the client after I approve them. For production, you will form your own team. You must strive for excellence. If any team performs poorly, you will not be invited next time."
Everyone should claim yes.
Then I hurried back to the dormitory.
Sit down in front of the computer and start designing.
20 sets of ball gowns with different styles, which I have never seen before.
We were in such a hurry that we didn't move except for lunch.
By the time I submitted the manuscript in the afternoon, I felt so dizzy that I could barely walk.
There's nothing I can do. My legs are really numb from sitting.
But when they were submitted to the department head for review, half of them were rejected.
The others were still apprehensive. They hadn't expected the deadline to be so tight and the workload to be so heavy. The department head was also so strict.
The one who was beaten back was not convinced and said, "What's wrong with this? Doesn't it look good?" and picked up the design drafts.
The department head said, "These designs of yours are exactly what you've shown in previous competitions. You're just using old products to deal with me! Some of them are even plagiarized from foreign brands. You can handle me, but can you handle the client?"
The department head was a little disappointed: "You are not fooling others, but yourselves."
The department head paused and looked around. "What kind of organization do you think is willing to spend 200,000 yuan to organize a prom for a child? What kind of parents are there?"
Everyone was shocked.
The department head said, "You always say there's no chance. But when the opportunity comes, you complain about this and that! Since none of you take this seriously, I'll go find the juniors. They need this opportunity more. I just thought you were graduating soon, so more practical experience would be helpful. Now you see, I really worried about it for nothing. You guys have more little thoughts than I thought!"
The department head was a little angry. After he finished speaking, the other girls felt guilty and looked at him and said, "I was wrong this time. I'm sorry. Please don't be angry with us!"
"We really appreciate you giving me this opportunity."
"I must go back and do it properly."
Everyone expressed their opinions.
The department head then agreed to their request with a cold face.
This time we really worked through the night.
Lights in the dormitory are turned off at 11 o'clock.
But they specifically applied for the large classroom to be open 24 hours a day.
In this large classroom, many people were drawing various line drawings. Some had already started working on them.
Haozai Clothing Department has a variety of high-end fabrics. No need to shop online.
The next day, many people had panda eyes.
The department head took a look and thought it was indeed good.
The students he carefully selected have their own insights in fashion design.
Maybe what she said before worked.
This time there was no laziness among the students.
I drew the dress design with the spirit of conquering the red carpet, and then scaled it down.
Shen Wei looked at the design draft and was satisfied with it.
The production costs have also been paid.
We started working overtime and became busy.
The senior students were so busy that all the juniors came to help, and their words were full of envy.
With the help of my junior schoolmates, the progress has been much faster.
After my junior year schoolmate came here, she found that the standards here were unusually high.
Several senior students did it at their own expense.
In order to make the fabric look like it's not wrinkled, multiple layers of pleats are needed, and the cost of more than 1,000 yuan is obviously not affordable.
The senior graduates recalled the instructions given by the dean.
It was an opportunity for actual combat training at that time.
It's totally like Paris Fashion Week.
They are so attentive.
The dean of studies also saw this and came several times.
They actually selected a lot of people from freshman, sophomore, and junior years to help them, and it was free.
Waiting for the work here to be completed.
Mantianxing Kindergarten sent someone to pick it up.
One car can only carry a few pieces.
It took a whole day to transport more than 120 dresses back.
There are child models for every piece of clothing.
These child models are sponsored by the department.
Such a good design, it's a pity to squash it.
When we took him to Mantianxing Kindergarten, the teachers loved him as soon as they saw him.
Baby dances have been organized in other kindergartens before.
I have never seen such grand and gorgeous clothes.
Even adults like them think these clothes are so beautiful.
I thought, the children would be so happy to see it.
