Chapter 890 Liu Qianqian, You Deserve It! [Two-in-One]
While the staff went to prepare the wedding dress, Wang Weiwei pulled Sun Yi aside and chatted with Liu Yifei.
“Crystal, thank you so much for choosing my wedding dress brand. In principle, I should have contacted you as soon as I received the news, but I was just too busy because I was one of the organizers of the recent New York Winter Fashion Week.” Wang Weiwei held her coffee and made an apologetic expression.
"Fortunately, there's still time, allowing me to design it for you personally. Normally, my appointments need to be made at least a year in advance."
"Thank you so much. To be honest, I never expected to be able to get you to design it for me personally."
Liu Yifei held Sun Yi's hand, her face full of excitement.
To be honest, even now, sitting in front of Wang Weiwei, Liu Yifei still feels like she's in a dream.
She had originally chosen a wedding dress at the Vera Wang store in Beijing and never expected that Wang Weiwei would personally design it for her.
Although Liu Yifei is an actress, she is no stranger to the fashion industry. In her opinion, fashion is a place that pays great attention to style.
Or, to use Sun Yi's words, it's what's called "prestige" or "high-class."
Those designers with names and reputations are all mavericks with unique aesthetics; they are not the kind of people you can just hire.
It also depends on your personal sense of style, artistic sense, appearance, temperament, and a whole host of other factors.
If they like you, they'll take the initiative to design something for you; if they don't, they'll absolutely refuse.
In short, it's very troublesome.
Liu Yifei didn't know Wang Weiwei before, and Sun Yi and the company were both very busy at that time, so she didn't think about asking Wang Weiwei to help.
Unexpectedly, Wang Weiwei took the initiative to contact her during her trip to the United States.
To be honest, Liu Yifei was quite surprised when she received Wang Weiwei's call.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have all gone back to China immediately, but instead changed their plans and flew to New York.
However, Liu Yifei's idea doesn't hold much sway with Sun Yi.
In Sun Yi's view, all that talk about the fashion industry, famous designers, and those who are both artistic and fashionable, boils down to nothing more than not having enough money.
This money doesn't have to be plain cash; it can be influence, popularity, or status.
If it weren't for her own wife's unparalleled popularity throughout Asia, would Wang Weiwei have taken the initiative to step forward? And even personally cut in line to design the wedding dress?
It's simply impossible.
Just imagine the brand effect that national goddess Liu Yifei would create by wearing a wedding dress she designed herself.
It's definitely more than 100 million, and the unit has to be US dollars.
So, Liu Yifei's popularity and status are still the deciding factor.
Of course, it cannot be denied that Wang Weiwei's abilities are indeed worthy of recognition.
Especially among celebrities in Europe and America, including Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne, Victoria Beckham, and even the daughter of former US President Bill Clinton, all chose her wedding dress when they got married.
If Liu Yifei can also wear a wedding dress designed by her own hand this time, it will undoubtedly be a declaration to the entire wedding dress design industry that Wang Weiwei has achieved success in both the East and the West.
"Mrs. Wang, Miss Liu's wedding dress is ready."
The three chatted for less than ten minutes before a staff member from the store came over.
“Oh, that’s great. Well then,” Wang Weiwei put down her coffee and turned to Liu Yifei, “Crystal, let’s go.”
"Mmm~" Liu Yifei nodded excitedly, and before leaving, she didn't forget to wink at Sun Yi.
You naughty husband, just wait patiently, you'll be thrilled in a minute!
Sun Yi pursed his lips.
Pshaw, it's not like we haven't seen it before. Can wearing it look better than not wearing it?
In the VIP room, two assistants wearing gloves stood on either side of the wedding dress display stand, while soft spotlights poured down like moonlight onto the dresses.
The base of the wedding dress is made of top-quality ivory white silk satin. However, under the light, it is not a rigid pure white, but rather has a very light and warm tone, as if it has been bathed in moonlight.
The bodice features a strapless design with high-end custom lace that extends elegantly from the shoulders to the chest, creating a subtle yet sexy V-neck.
The waistline is a chain made of countless small, perfectly round diamonds of the same size and extremely high purity, hanging down naturally like the Milky Way falling to earth.
The skirt features a classic A-line fishtail silhouette, hugging the body tightly at the hips and thighs to gracefully accentuate a woman's most alluring curves, before flaring out at the calves to create a massive, magnificent train.
Liu Yifei stood there quietly, her eyes wide open, momentarily stunned.
It's so beautiful!!
"Crystal, this is the design you chose before. I've added many elements to the original design." Wang Weiwei was pleased to see Liu Yifei's stunned expression and began to explain to her.
“Every wedding dress I design will have a name. This one is called Moon Goddess. I think it suits you perfectly. Let’s try it on now.”
As soon as Wang Weiwei finished speaking, two assistants pushed the wedding dress over.
Liu Yifei was still a little dazed at the moment, and like a puppet, she was "invited" into the fitting room by her two assistants.
Over the next half hour, Liu Yifei watched herself slowly put on her dream wedding dress.
The moment she stepped out of the fitting room, even the well-informed Wang Weiwei was taken aback.
"Oh God, it's absolutely perfect, Crystal. I never imagined that the gentle grace unique to Eastern women could suit you so well with the splendor of this wedding dress."
Liu Yifei stood in front of the dressing mirror, somewhat incredulous.
She had worn wedding dresses before, a few times when filming, but the feeling was completely different from this one.
That feeling of anticipation and longing for happiness was something I had never experienced before.
Wang Weiwei began pacing around her, sometimes squatting down to adjust the pleats of the skirt, sometimes measuring the waistline with a silver ruler. After circling around, she suddenly noticed a problem and muttered to herself, "Why is it a little tight?"
After carefully measuring again, Wang Weiwei smiled with relief and joked with Liu Yifei, "Crystal, a wedding is the most important moment in every woman's life. As a senior, I have a responsibility to remind you to maintain a good figure in the coming month."
"Yes, I will."
Upon hearing these words, Liu Yifei blushed, feeling quite embarrassed.
It turns out that she had gained a few pounds in the past few months due to overeating and drinking, and her waistline had deviated from the previous measurements.
Although it's still wearable, it doesn't fit perfectly, which is absolutely unacceptable in the eyes of a top designer like Wang Weiwei.
She had initially thought there was a basic mistake in her design.
"It's alright, no major problems, still within acceptable limits. How about it, are you satisfied? Shall we go out and let Director Sun take a look too?"
Upon hearing Wang Weiwei mention Sun Yi, Liu Yifei couldn't help but smile.
But the next second, she raised her hand to touch the lace on her chest, looked at herself in the dressing mirror, and said, "Do you think this neckline is a bit too flashy?"
There was a time when Liu Tianxian was able to use the term Zhang Yang.
It must be said that someone deserves great credit.
Wang Wei smiled and shook her head, lightly touching the hollow of Liu Yifei's collarbone with her fingertip. "Believe me, this design will ensure that Director Sun's gaze is firmly fixed on you when you take the oath."
After saying that, she quickly walked to the workbench, picked up a pen and the wedding dress design sketches, sketched a few simple lines, and then showed them to Liu Yifei.
"Alternatively, I could modify the neckline and add some tulle to make it look more dignified. However, I personally recommend it as it is now, as it is elegant and charming."
Upon hearing Wang Weiwei's suggestion, Liu Yifei immediately fell into a dilemma.
"How about this, let's see what Director Sun thinks, and see which one he prefers. I bet he prefers the way it is now."
Wang Weiwei offered her suggestion.
After hearing this, Liu Yifei pouted.
He might actually be right.
Outside the fitting room, Sun Yi sat on a velvet sofa, getting a little bored while waiting.
Although all the wedding dresses in the row were beautiful, each one a masterpiece on its own, he, a man who had absolutely no sense of fashion, got tired of looking at them after a while.
Fortunately, Wang Weiwei's studio only accepts appointments, and only one client at a time.
Listening to the melodious music and anticipating Liu Tianxian's stunning appearance later is quite nice. "Sun Sun Yi".
Liu Yifei didn't call him "husband" or "brother," but instead called him by Sun Yi's name.
Upon hearing the sound, Sun Yi suddenly looked up.
The next second, I don't know how to describe it.
His mouth was agape, his eyes were wide open, and he stared blankly in Liu Yifei's direction.
Their eyes met.
Liu Yifei gently pursed her lips and tilted her head slightly.
The ivory-white wedding dress accentuated her snow-white skin, making it appear translucent and jade-like. The lines at her waistline elongated and optimized her already perfect figure, achieving an ultimate harmony between slenderness and fullness in the interplay of light and shadow.
Without the adornment of jewelry or the embellishment of makeup, Liu Yifei herself, in her pure white wedding dress, exudes an air of sophistication and sexiness, while also possessing a holy, ethereal, and untainted fairy-like aura.
"Hey idiot, what are you doing?"
"Sisi, it's not my fault." Sun Yi finally came to his senses, chuckled, and exclaimed, "It's because you're so beautiful you don't look real."
After saying that, Sun Yi clapped his hands lightly and said sincerely to Wang Weiwei, "Vera Wang's design is indeed well-deserved. Today, I have truly witnessed it."
Wang Wei nodded in greeting.
She was quite satisfied that Sun Yi, a well-traveled and knowledgeable director, personally expressed his approval.
"Hmph~" Liu Yifei lifted her skirt and gave Sun Yi a coquettish glance, her sweetness overflowing.
As expected, when Liu Yifei asked, Sun Yi chose to keep the existing design.
Between solemnity and aesthetics, Sun Yi decisively chose the latter.
This girl is being overly conservative. This is nothing, it's not even a deep V-neck design, and it's much more dignified than some of the gowns worn by celebrities on the red carpet.
"So, we'll maintain the status quo?"
"Yes, yes, that's perfect."
"Okay, I'll do as you say, this is the one."
After confirming with Wang Weiwei, Liu Yifei prepared to return to the fitting room to take off her wedding dress.
Neither of them mentioned the price. The young couple were already financially independent, and when it came to a once-in-a-lifetime event like marriage, they didn't consider money at all.
Sun Yi almost couldn't resist asking Designer Wang to design a few more sets for future use.
On the way back to the fitting room, two assistants were pushing another dress out, and judging from the direction, it was obviously going to be a new product to be displayed in the showroom.
Liu Yifei didn't notice at first, but when she came to her senses, she only saw a splash of red.
"That is..." she asked Wang Weiwei instinctively.
Wang Weiwei was taken aback when she heard this, then smiled, snapped her fingers, called to two staff members in the distance, and pushed the dress back.
This time, Liu Yifei finally got to see her true face.
A bright red dress embroidered with gold cloud patterns came into view.
Liu Tianxian could no longer walk.
“This is a new traditional Chinese style that I tried this year. It’s a Xiuhe dress.” Wang Weiwei’s voice came from beside me, with a hint of excitement. “It’s made of silk satin, with phoenixes embroidered on the collar and cuffs using the traditional Suzhou embroidery technique. The buttons are made of Hetian jade, and the skirt incorporates the design of a horse-face skirt.”
“I am preparing to create a whole Chinese style series, including Han-style phoenix coronet and embroidered robe. This is my first piece.”
Wang Weiwei became more and more excited as she spoke. She noticed Liu Yifei's expression out of the corner of her eye, chuckled, and asked encouragingly, "Crystal, how about giving it a try?"
Is this... alright?
Liu Yifei bit her lip lightly, somewhat eager to try.
Back in China, wedding planning companies had mentioned Chinese-style dresses and weddings to her, but because so few people chose them and she had never seen them, she focused all her attention on wedding dresses.
Seeing this traditional Chinese wedding dress, I suddenly felt a stirring within me of certain traditional genes inherent in Eastern women.
“What’s wrong with that? You’re my client, so of course everything will be based on your wishes.” Wang Weiwei patted Liu Yifei’s arm, clearly seeing through her thoughts. Perhaps, the scene with the staff just now was something she had arranged.
"Let's go, let's give it a try."
Liu Yifei reluctantly returned to the fitting room. As if participating in a time-traveling ceremony, she took off her Western-style wedding dress and, with the help of her assistant, changed into a Xiuhe dress that embodies traditional Chinese craftsmanship.
Silk glided against her skin, and the buttons around her neck were tied into delicate knots. The hem of her skirt accentuated her graceful figure.
When she turned to look in the mirror, the phoenix embroidered on her body seemed to take flight from the fabric.
"So beautiful! This is the epitome of elegance and beauty for an Eastern bride. Crystal, you perfectly embody all the elements of East and West." Wang Weiwei cupped her hands around her heart and exclaimed in admiration once more.
Liu Yifei gently twirled her skirt, feeling the weight of the Chinese-style dress. Her eyes were full of surprise, but then she became somewhat conflicted.
Wang Weiwei noticed and asked, "Crystal, what's wrong?"
"I'm so conflicted right now. A romantic and dreamy wedding dress is something I've always longed for since I was a little girl, but now that I'm wearing this traditional Chinese wedding dress, I feel..."
Wang Wei smiled and put her arm around her shoulder. "How about we ask Director Sun?"
In the rest area, Sun Yi's mind was still replaying the image of the young woman in her wedding dress, elegant and pure, when suddenly another Liu Tianxian appeared before him, her style completely different.
Sun Yi was stunned again.
"What's going on?"
"I... I just saw this Chinese-style dress and suddenly wanted to try it on, just to try it on, I didn't expect..."
Liu Yifei said somewhat uneasily.
Despite wearing a phoenix gown befitting an empress, she nervously tugged at the hem of her dress like a timid young wife.
Sun Yi was dumbfounded.
"so?"
"I'm a bit conflicted right now."
"What's bothering you?"
"The wedding planning company is all booked, and the wedding date is only a month away. Originally, we planned a Western-style wedding, but suddenly I really like this Xiuhe dress, and I... I don't want to give up on this wedding dress."
Liu Yifei spoke haltingly, almost crying as she spoke.
She knew it very well.
At this point in time, with most of the wedding procedures already finalized, changing a Western-style wedding to a Chinese-style wedding is simply beyond capricious.
If changes are to be made, it's basically equivalent to scrapping all the previous preparations and starting from scratch.
But when she saw this Xiuhe dress, she had an inexplicable feeling that she couldn't let go of it.
"Honey, I'm sorry, I really can't choose anymore. Oh well, never mind, I won't change it."
"Why did you give up?"
"what?"
Why choose this option?
"!!!"
"Liu Qianqian, you are my bride. You can wear a wedding dress and exchange vows in a church, or you can wear a bright red wedding gown and dazzle everyone in front of your family and friends. You can experience Western romance, or you can feel the elegance of Eastern tradition. With me, you deserve it all."
"Husband~ Waaah~"
