Chapter 273: The First Supermodel and Dress in History (First Update)
Mastic is a small town on Long Island, New York. Although it is located on Long Island, this town with less than 20,000 people is not very wealthy and is considered a "blue-collar town" on Long Island.
But the biggest landlord in this town is Anna Wintour, who has dominated the fashion world for thirty years.
Her estate here covers an area of more than 50 acres. Robbie Myers never understood why Anna Wintour didn't go to the Hamptons, but instead bought so much land in a blue-collar town.
"You should have taken over the position of ELLE's global content director during Steven Swartz's first year, and you shouldn't have given the brand rights to Cecilia Miller."
"Gabriella mentioned casually last year that Steven was talking to George about replacing you. Marie Claire collaborated with Gabriella for three consecutive issues last year. I thought you should have been able to see the clues."
Anna Wintour, who is already 67 years old but still has a bob haircut, seemed to have a hint of anger in her eyes. She slammed the glass in her hand on the table and looked at Robbie Myers in front of her.
The Gabriela she mentioned is a Paraguayan female fashion designer who also has her own fashion brand.
Three years ago, Gabriella's career suddenly began to soar. From a non-mainstream designer brand in Brooklyn, she has collaborated with many famous brands and political and business celebrities, and is now in the limelight in the fashion industry.
That's because Gabriella married George Hearst four years ago, and George Hearst is the younger brother of William III, the current head of the Hearst family, and the managing director of the Hearst Group.
"Besides, you shouldn't have resigned right then and there. Instead, you should have refused and returned to New York to immediately take down Bobby and Richards, showing your determination to fight back. But that's obviously not something you can do, because you've been a sweet girl from the beginning."
"This isn't about ability, it's about power. If you're too ashamed to fight for power, it will flee from you."
Anna Wintour looked at the junior in front of her who had once tried to challenge her. Although every word was followed by the arrogance unique to Manhattan Greenwich, Robbie Myers knew that the other party was not laughing at him.
Many people don't know that Robbie Myers and Anna Wintour are not as incompatible as they appear.
In fact, when the news of Robbie Myers' resignation broke, the first person to call Robbie Myers was Anna Wintour, who asked her if she would like to accept the position of content director of Vogue.
At that time, Robbie Myers told Anna Wintour about his future plans.
Sometimes, opponents are more willing to help you than friends.
Anna Wintour is no different from an ordinary old lady at home. Whether it is her dress or her behavior, there is no trace of the fashion old devil in public.
She has never believed in "beauty". "Beauty" is just a means for her to gain power.
Robbie Myers' tone was as gentle as ever: "We are different, but if you want to see me admit defeat, I don't mind admitting this failure in front of you."
"Of course, I'm admitting ELLE's failure, not mine."
Robbie Myers tucked his blond hair behind his ears and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"You were just saying that as long as the health and environmental risks weren't exposed, Tears of the Moon Goddess could succeed without any publicity. Anna, I'm indeed angry about Steven Swartz's betrayal, but I have to admit that it was with his help that I was able to make the right decision."
"You've seen the magical effects of the Tears of the Moon Goddess, haven't you?"
Robbie Myers elegantly took a sip of the juice in his glass and smiled at Anna Wintour.
Seeing Robbie Myers' smile, Anna Wintour was silent for a while: "Meg Ryan has never been in Vogue. Do you know why I hate sweet girls like you?"
Robbie Myers was stunned, but saw Anna Wintour's face full of anger: "You have never respected power, and you have never known the value of power. Yet, despite your seeming ignorance and naiveté, you are always favored by the powerful. You can get everything without fighting. This is disgusting! So disgusting!"
It turns out it was jealousy.
Robbie Myers' mood suddenly improved.
"The table you want is impossible. I can only give two places to Lorraine Nouwen this year. Who are you going to bring?" Anna Wintour let out a long sigh.
"No, I'm not going to the Met Ball." Robbie Myers stared at Anna Wintour. "As long as you're the chairman of the Met Gala, I'm not going to attend."
"Although I left ELLE, I didn't surrender to you."
Anna Wintour was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "Okay, then who are you going to recommend to participate?"
"Cindy Crawford." Robbie Myers said confidently.
Cindy Crawford?
Former world's number one supermodel?
But she's over 50, right? The last time she participated in MetGala was seven years ago, and she was already very old then.
Cindy Crawford is the first supermodel in the history of the modeling industry to become famous, no doubt about it.
At her peak, her influence far exceeded that of later supermodels such as Gisele Bundchen. She could be called the dream lover of a generation of Miami people and the idol of countless young girls and socialites.
Since Cindy Crawford retired, although she has not completely faded out of the film and television industry, she has lived a reclusive life and rarely appears in public, only occasionally appearing on TV shows.
Anna Wintour and Cindy Crawford are very familiar with each other. Cindy Crawford has appeared on various versions of Vogue more than fifty times. Even this month's cover of Gallic Vogue is Cindy Crawford.
Anna Wintour immediately understood Robbie Myers's plan.
Is she so confident in the Tears of the Moon Goddess?
Although she has seen the changes in Robbie Myers, Anna Wintour still hasn't used Wangshu Tears.
In her understanding, such a highly effective product must have unknown side effects.
Compared with various medical beauty methods, she believes more in the effects of regular work and rest and healthy diet.
"What about the dress? Which one?" Anna Wintour remained calm. No wonder Versace suddenly changed the recommended guest. It turned out that Robbie Myers had snatched it away.
If so, does that mean Cindy Crawford's dress will also be made by Lorraine Nouwen? Have they signed a contract with a designer? Or will they use couture?
Cindy Crawford's name was originally among the recommended guests for this year's Met Gala by Balmain. However, two days ago, they suddenly requested to change it to a celebrity from the big week. At first, people thought that Balmain wanted to expand into the big week market, but now it seems that there is something else going on.
"This year's theme is fashion in the age of technology, right?" Robbie Myers smiled mysteriously. "You'll see when the time comes."
——
"It's so dreamy, I want this dress!" In the dim night, Scarlett looked at the dress in front of her that was as bright as the stars, her eyes full of hearts.
Hanging in front of Scarlett was a silver dress with a slightly champagne color. It looked like it was made of silk and was embroidered with strange yet harmonious patterns.
This dress consists of two pieces, the inner one is a gauze skirt of the same color, and the outer one is more like a cloak. The tail of the cloak is very long, about two or three meters.
If you just look at it this way, although it looks good, there is nothing special about this dress.
But once the lights are turned off, you can see that the outer cloak gradually becomes transparent from the back to the hem of the skirt, and on the cloak, little stars begin to appear, and finally converge into a galaxy hanging above the cloak.
Just by imagining it, Scarlett can imagine that if she wore this dress to the Met Gala, she would definitely attract all the cameras in the audience and would also set off social media the next day.
Crucially, the dress looked like a beautiful dress, not some outlandish red carpet styling that was meant to be eccentric and attention-grabbing.
"Don't you have D&G endorsement on your body? And isn't the dress ready?" Fang Yu responded casually.
This dress only looks good on people who are tall enough. Cindy Crawford is 1.77 meters tall, but the aura and effect of this dress far exceeds that of Black Widow, who is only 1.6 meters tall.
The most important thing is that Black Widow's return to form is far less eye-catching in the eyes of the outside world than the return of Cindy Crawford, the number one supermodel in history who has retired for more than ten years.
After all, her age is there. Black Widow is only in her early thirties. Even though her condition declined before, it is not uncommon for her to recover after adjustments.
Cindy Crawford is already in her fifties. The TV shows she participated in in the past two years also showed what this number one supermodel in history looks like now.
It is easy to imagine how much of a sensation Cindy Crawford would cause if she wore this dress and appeared at the Met Gala in her peak form 20 years ago.
There is no need for deliberate publicity, countless celebrities and socialites will take the initiative to ask what magic was cast on Cindy Crawford.
By the way, even Lorraine Noven’s art product distribution route can be developed.
This dress is actually an alchemical item, and its only extraordinary function is that it looks good.
The style of the dress comes from the aristocratic attire worn at court banquets during the Tethyr Empire.
After Fang Yu got the pattern from the Tower of Lorraine, she gave it to the embroidery craftsman in Wuzhou, who embroidered the alchemical materials into the entire dress.
Finally, it was taken to the alchemy laboratory for final processing and activation, and this stunning dress was born.
"I'm just the spokesperson for their cosmetics. I can choose the dress myself!" Black Widow retorted, her eyes never leaving the dress hanging on the wall.
After hearing what Black Widow said, Fang Yu had an idea.
"In that case, here is another one. See if you like it. I think this one may suit you better." After saying that, Fang Yu opened the wardrobe and took out a suit of dresses in the darkness, then turned on the lights in the room.
The fabric of the gown has a subtly iridescent sheen, shifting between shades of deep blue, purple and silver, creating a mysterious and otherworldly effect.
The neckline was embellished with delicate crystals, and the gown had a long train at the back, crafted from a light, sheer fabric that seemed to pulsate with mysterious energy.
The overall design is elegant and mysterious, the key parts are very solid, and the non-key parts are almost transparent, which is very interesting.
"Robe of Desire", a first-level arcane item.
It can enhance the desires of intelligent creatures within a radius of thirty meters.
If Scarlett wore this dress to attend the Met Gala, these batteries would be able to contribute even more desire and faith, right?
Announcement, I have written the beginning of the next chapter, I found that my condition has recovered ala la la la la la la
