The whole story
Wang Xu thought about becoming famous for singing, or for holding hands with celebrities in Hong Kong, but he never thought that he would become popular for making clothes.
This popularity came out of nowhere. The daily operation of a designer brand should be like this. Occasionally, customers come to the door, and they just buy a piece of clothing, and they can have it customized in ten and a half months.
Such a frequency can not only ensure profits but also have enough time for design conception. This is the way most designer brands operate.
Designer brands are generally niche, and their popularity and reputation are between big designers and ordinary luxury brands. What they pay attention to is independence, individuality, and full of self-awareness. They do not engage in mass production or large-scale production.
Generally, only a dozen or so pieces of a designed style are produced before the end is finished. Occasionally, a particularly popular style will become a classic and dozens of pieces will be produced regularly.
But I don’t know if there are still designer brands like Wang Chao that were sold out in one day. At least Wang Xu has never heard of them.
When Wang Xu arrived, the largest purchasing group had already left. They packed up and bought almost all the ready-made clothes on the shelves.
If they hadn't paid so readily, Wang Xu would have thought they were here to cause trouble.
Tang Yun didn't know who they were, but only five or six people took care of them. Tang Yun didn't know English, and the translator brought by the guests was only responsible for their own customers.
They were very surprised that each of them bought more than ten pieces of various clothing, and the prices were hundreds or even thousands, as if they didn't exist.
Even the guests present were dumbfounded to see what they were doing. Their posture looked more like an outlet promotion than shopping at a designer brand.
But it's okay if they leave, at least the store won't look crowded.
Wang Xu also temporarily forgot his confusion and began to serve the three waiting ladies. These three were all guests who chose evening dresses. Unlike ordinary ready-made clothes, evening dresses require the presence of a designer.
In general stores of this type of brand, clothing such as evening dresses will only be sold on specific dates. They are usually only displayed and will not be officially handed over to customers until the designer comes to the store.
Tang Yun doesn't trust herself in making various adjustments for her clients. For example, if a client needs to tighten their waist a little, if you tighten it casually, your hips will tighten, and the overall effect will suddenly collapse.
This requires the skillful hands of a designer or an experienced tailor to make this adjustment seem natural.
These three customers are all veterans who have been patronizing such brand stores for a long time and are very familiar with the process. Yesterday, most people were looking at the style of Catherine's skirt, but they saw the fit of the skirt.
The kind of skirt that seems to grow on the body is every woman's ultimate dream. Such clothes are often made by top tailors. I didn't expect that China, a fashion desert, would have such a good tailor.
The three ladies seemed to know each other very well and didn't mind being served together.
The three of them had already selected their favorite styles. Wang Xu guided Tang Yun to adjust the styles for the three ladies one by one, while chatting with the three women in English.
One woman stood and asked Tang Yun to pin various clips on her clothes, while the other two sat on the sofa drinking tea, watching leisurely, and chatting with Wang Xu.
"I'm sorry ladies, today we have a lot of unexpected customers, which makes me a little confused. After all, we just opened yesterday." Wang Xu apologized to the guests somewhat apologetically. It was such an unexpected time, not to mention that he was the sponsor.
"It doesn't matter, I was attracted by Catherine's clothes yesterday. The style and cut of that evening dress are exquisite." said a plump woman.
"Is it the cocktail party that Miss Catherine mentioned? Yesterday she said she was going to a cocktail party."
"I think that's the one."
"Then I really have to thank Miss Catherine."
"Yes, she gave you a good publicity yesterday," another tall, thin woman said.
"But it's just a skirt, so it won't cause panic buying. The purchase situation just now really scared me."
"I think I may know why," the woman who was being adjusted suddenly said.
"Oh, what's going on? Julia, I was surprised just now." The plump woman asked.
"Kathy, yesterday the counselor's wife showed some photos. Some of them were taken in the imperial capital and were intended to be sent to Vogue magazine. She commented that these are the trendsetters of Chinese fashion."
While Julia just stretched out her arms as Wang Xu asked, she explained that Kathy was the plump woman.
"Well, I remember those photos. The girl's clothes are indeed novel and elegant. The girl is also very beautiful, with a first-class figure, just like a professional model.", the thin woman interface.
Hearing this, Wang Xu was stunned. He suddenly thought of something and seemed to understand. Then he pointed to the oil painting on the wall and asked:
"Is this the girl you're talking about?"
The three women looked at the oil painting carefully, but in the end they did not give a definite answer.
"Sorry, I only had a quick glance at the photo, so I can't tell whether it is the same person. But I remember that she was wearing a baseball cap, and the pattern on the hat is the same as your LOGO." Julia said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter, it's really difficult to judge." Wang Xu answered with all his might.
After all, it is indeed a bit difficult to identify a person using photos he saw in a hurry at a big party.
"It's no wonder, those women's husbands are in the speculative business, and they also like to do similar things." Casey seemed to look down on those women.
"I guess they want to earn some pocket money. Haha, their husbands are not that generous." Julia agreed with a clear attitude.
But at this point, Wang Xu basically understood the whole story. It happened that Julia's skirt had been adjusted and needed to be sewn and fixed at the back, so he hurriedly excused himself and left, leaving several women drinking on the sofa.
Tea break.
After the young couple and Tang Yun discussed the decision to open a shop, Wang Xu changed the logo on one of Wang Fei's baseball caps. Wang Fei liked it very much and often took it with her when they went out for walks.
I guess I went out one day and happened to meet the counselor's wife taking a photo and took Wang Fei into it. Yesterday, Catherine's packaging bag happened to have this logo on it, so the speculators immediately understood that this was a product from the same store.
It is estimated that the counselor's wife is very capable, and her evaluation is enough to make these people make speculative moves.
Wang Xu felt that his estimate was about right, so he felt relieved. It was still an accident and should not have any bad impact.
It is also very likely to bring a stable source of customers to herself, but it seems that she needs to produce a few evening dresses according to the body types of European and American people. The current ones are carefully selected by Wang Xu for the Chinese people's body types.
