Chapter 395 Vice President Xue does not recommend Xiao Nuan to enter the competition with this work
Vice President Xue stared at the design draft for a long time, and it was hard to tell whether he was satisfied or disappointed.
After a few seconds, his brows relaxed and he nodded in appreciation. "Excellent! You can tell there hasn't been a single revision from start to finish. It was completed in one go, with smooth lines. It's a perfect work."
After receiving the approval from Vice President Xue, Xiao Nuan was completely relieved.
"I suddenly had an inspiration yesterday, so I rushed it out."
Vice President Xue put the design draft on the table, looked at Xiao Nuan, and asked with interest,
"Your strength is designing evening gowns, and you've always considered this as the design direction for this exhibition. Why did you suddenly change your mind and design this couple's outfit?"
This time, Xiao Nuan designed a fashionable couple coat with a lazy style.
She had originally planned to design an evening gown for the competition, and Vice President Xue also encouraged her to create in this direction, but she had no luck finding inspiration.
That day she couldn't sleep, was inexplicably irritable, and cried uncontrollably. Mu Yuting kept comforting her and accompanying her, and her bad mood was driven away bit by bit.
Being pampered by someone you love is an indescribable happiness and sense of security.
She had always wanted to design a pair of clothes for Mu Yuting, so she took advantage of this competition to design a couple's outfit for Mu Yuting and herself.
Regardless of whether they win the award or not, this is a memory that belongs only to the two of them.
Maybe it was because I had love in my heart, so when I designed this dress, I was simply inspired and immersed in the creation.
This was also the first time she drew a design that was extremely perfect without any modification.
But Xiao Nuan couldn't explain this to Vice President Xue in detail, so she simply explained,
"Vice President Xue, designing evening gowns is indeed my strong point, but since college, every time I've participated in a competition, I've always designed evening gowns. Maybe I've run out of inspiration and have no ideas at all. So I decided to change direction this time. Can couples' outfits also be considered for the competition?"
"Of course, we can," Vice President Xue said seriously after taking another look at the design draft. "But the risk involved in the competition will be a bit greater."
Xiao Nuan was a little confused and asked nervously, "What does risk mean?"
Vice President Xue explained calmly, "Well, judging by the work, your design is perfect, simple and elegant. It's the kind of design that won't be stunning, but will definitely make people unable to take their eyes off it. Based on my experience as a judge, I know it will definitely pass the preliminary round.
But have you ever thought that in the semi-finals, the models will wear your ready-made clothes to walk the runway. Other people's works can be completed by one model, but your couple's style requires two models, one male and one female, and they need to cooperate with each other in the runway show to show the best effect.
There are many minor issues to consider, such as the height difference between the male and female models and their coordination during the catwalk. These small factors will affect the judges' scores. Moreover, the models are designated by the organizers, so we don't know them and there is no way to communicate in advance. When I say high risk, I mean there are too many uncontrollable factors.
Xiao Nuan paused, thinking.
"I hadn't really thought about it that much. Now that you mention it, I seem to have some impression of it. I once heard a senior say that entries should be single works as much as possible, avoiding parent-child or couple outfits. So that's the reason."
Vice President Xue nodded and continued, "Yes, this is why many designers don't choose to design couples' outfits for the competition. There are too many factors to consider, and couples' outfits are two pieces of clothing, so the chances of the judges finding flaws are doubled, so the chances of winning are low."
Vice President Xue’s remarks were well-reasoned and his analysis was very objective.
Xiao Nuan sighed softly, feeling a little lost inside.
Seeing Xiao Nuan hesitate, Vice President Xue reminded her,
"This competition is very rare for newcomers. If you can win a prize, it will be very helpful for your future. To be honest, you have the potential to win a prize.
My suggestion is to design another evening gown. After all, that is your strength. Lack of inspiration is only temporary, and there are still several days left."
Xiao Nuan didn't say anything, her eyes fell on the design draft, thinking about something.
"Of course, this is just a suggestion. Everything should be based on your own opinion. If you can't make up your mind, you can go back and think about it before making a decision."
Xiao Nuan withdrew her gaze from the design draft and looked at Vice President Xue, her clear eyes full of determination.
"Vice President Xue, don't think about it anymore. I've made up my mind. Let's use it."
“…”
Vice President Xue didn't expect Xiao Nuan to make such a decisive decision, and in his opinion, this decision was very unwise.
"Vice President Xue, this is the first time I've been able to draw a design so smoothly. You just noticed it, without a single pause. This piece of work has a different meaning to me, so I decided to use it."
"The meaning is different?" Vice President Xue's heart was a little disturbed. He repeated it and then asked,
"Can you tell me what this work means to you? Or, can you also tell me how the inspiration for designing couples' outfits came about?"
