Go outside the studio and light a cigarette.

He blew out turbid smoke into the dim night sky, and it took a long time for Xiang Yang to calm down.

Returning to the studio again, he immersed himself in the documents. After an unknown amount of time, when a flash of white appeared on the horizon, Xiang Yang raised his head from the sketches and documents he was buried deep in.

"It's broken! I forgot the time."

After stretching and mid-yawn, he suddenly remembered that Liu Qianqian was back.

As a result, he was so busy that he gave it to her.
Forget it.

"It's broken. It's broken."

Remembering that Liu Qianqian said she would be waiting for her in the living room before she left, Xiang Yang had no time to clean up the scrawled tabletop. He stood up in a hurry and ran out of the workroom. When he heard the doorknob banging against him, he didn't even bother to look back and quickly put on his clothes. After passing the swimming pool, we came to the villa where the lights were still on.

As soon as the door was opened, the heads of two silly dogs emerged from the sofa in the living room.

They looked at Xiangyang curiously.

Ignoring the two of them, I came to the sofa. Liu Qianqian was lying on the soft sofa, sleeping peacefully with a pillow and a thin blanket.

The loose hair fell on her fair face, and she still held the script of "Black Swan" in her hands.

"What a fool."

Xiang Yang pursed his lips, carefully walked to the opposite side of her, squatted down, and gently caressed her shoulders.

After a few times, Xiang Yang frowned when he saw that she was sleeping soundly.

He slowly took the script away from her hand and put it on the table. After tucking the thin blanket, Xiang Yang slowly found the right angle with his hand and picked her up from the sofa.

"Well you're back?"

Feeling Xiang Yang's embrace, Liu Qianqian murmured. She couldn't bear to open her eyes. She put her arms around Xiang Yang's neck and murmured: "Go to bed early, I'm so sleepy."

"Well, I'll take you to bed." Xiang Yang whispered and carried her into the bedroom.

She had just been placed on the bed, as if it was equipped with an automatic pilot. While murmuring, she kicked off the blanket wrapped around her body and got into the soft quilt.

Xiang Yang walked out of the bedroom quietly, went to the bathroom in another room, washed up before returning to the master bedroom.

As soon as she got into bed, Liu Qianqian got into Xiang Yang's arms and held her tightly.

It's like looking for warmth, and like falling asleep in this embrace, only then can you feel the sweetness and happiness.

After kissing Liu Qianqian's hair and yawning, Xiang Yang felt unable to open his eyes. Soon, accompanied by his soft body, he fell asleep silently.

Just before falling asleep, he felt like he was gently pulling Liu Qianqian close to him again.

Because of that, it’s comfortable.

When he woke up, Xiangyang opened his eyes and realized that Liu Qianqian was already up.

Knowing that she usually likes to sleep in, she was not craving for bed at this moment. Xiangyang got up from the bed with some surprise, wound up his watch and walked out of the bedroom. Before he came to the living room, he opened his mouth in surprise.

The air is filled with the aroma of food.

The sight of her busy in the kitchen made Xiang Yang feel a little stunned, but also a little bit happy.

"Morning."

Seeing Xiang Yang coming over, Liu Qianqian smiled and winked.

"Morning." Xiang Yang said, holding the hand that the other person extended, and said, "I'll do it."

"No, go and wash up quickly."

Liu Qianqian stood up on her tiptoes and kissed the corner of Xiang Yang's lips and ordered.

"Okay." Xiang Yang responded softly.

After a while, he returned to the living room and woke up from the "squeaking" of hot water.

When he came out again, Liu Qianqian had already made breakfast.

"I just did it casually. I don't know if you will like it." Liu Qianqian said softly.

On the table in the early morning, the food was very simple, only milk, fried bacon, sausage, toast, and oatmeal, but Xiang Yang fell into silence. When he didn't know how to answer, he held She held his palm and looked into each other's eyes. Liu Qianqian said with a smile:

"Eat quickly, we have to get busy later."

"thank you."

Xiang Yang nodded.

"Do you want to say thank you? You usually cook for me." Liu Qianqian's clear eyes flashed with light, "Hey, if you are moved, just eat all these. I spent a long time doing it. OK."

Xiang Yang couldn't help but pursed his lips.

I must eat them all.

"Were you busy late last night?" Liu Qianqian asked as she took Xiang Yang to sit down and looked at the knife and fork.

Taking a deep breath, Xiang Yang nodded, "There are too many things that need to be prepared. The men's clothing that Little John is responsible for is okay, but the women's clothing is too complicated. Fortunately, I have sorted it out."

"Well, then come on." Liu Qianqian clenched her fists and said with a smile.

"I will."

In fact, it's not that Xiangyang's work efficiency is poor.After the broadcast of "Downton Abbey", the costume designer of the show told the "Daily Mail" that about 60% of the costumes for the characters in the show were made from scratch, and the rest They are all made from vintage clothing.

Most of these clothes come from trade fairs in London and Paris, and most of them are not used immediately when they are bought.

Every piece of antique clothing requires careful repair and processing to reach its best condition on the screen.How many dresses are there in the whole show?

A clothing team composed of 12 professional clothing designers has made more than 100 sets of clothes based on handmade techniques from around 300 years ago.

As the most successful British drama in history, the honor won by "Downton Abbey" is worthy of the serious efforts of the costume team.

In addition to the first season of its premiere, which won the "World's Most Popular TV Series in 2010" and was recorded in the Guinness World Records, "Downton Abbey" has won a total of 6 major awards in 6 consecutive seasons. Nominated 16 times.

The efforts of directors, screenwriters, and actors are indispensable here, and naturally there will be no shortage of efforts in persuading the Tao.

There are many details that reveal the excellence of this TV series with a production cost of 100 million pounds per hour.

Just like the military uniforms in this TV series, the captains of the counties of England have a rosette, the counties of Scotland have a thistle, the counties of Wales have a feather, and the counties of Ireland have a shamrock.

There is no room for error in the small details of the epaulettes, but they are more about explaining the background details of the characters.

Xiangyang only has himself here. There is also Little John.

Of course, the two of them don't mean to make more than 300 sets of clothes now, but they first need to come up with an overall plan for the tone of the clothes.

It's like building a house. The foundation must be laid solidly for the same reason.

If you want to do well, you must first be serious.

People who always think others are stupid are actually the only ones who are the stupidest.

In China, there are also TV dramas with elaborate costumes that strictly follow the historical context. Why is the old version of "Dream of Red Mansions" always talked about? Why does the 1994 version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" not have many "fancy" scenes, but still makes people forget the time in the simple pictures?

Why was the 2010 "New Three Kingdoms" so criticized as soon as it was aired?

Is it just about the actors and the director, is there also a matter of the script?
In order to restore as much as possible, the costume designer Zhao Qingxia, who was responsible for the 94 version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", visited all the Three Kingdoms-themed museums in China to restore the real characters in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, integrated all the literature and materials he could access, and copied More than 3 sets of clothing.

Among them, there are more than 70-80 sets of costumes for important figures such as Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei, and the scenes in which each set of clothes appear are extremely exquisite in details.

The prop team used more than 7 props, including cases, couches, tables, vehicles, lamps, smokers, tripods, screens, etc. to show the style of the Three Kingdoms on the screen as much as possible.

What about "New Three Kingdoms"?

"The audio-visual language of film and television can stimulate the audience more directly, and the key to composing the picture and audio-visual language is not just actors and directors."

When you shoot a historical masterpiece, if the picture does not pay attention to realism, it will naturally not provide the audience with an intuitive sense of reality.

After breakfast, it was different to stay at home with my girlfriend and concentrate on preparing for the audition.

After Xiang Yang kissed him, he drove to the Hermès headquarters.Because he had had breakfast, he did not go to the restaurant where he always met Little John as usual.

Instead, he went directly to the women's clothing designer's office area.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Sarah busy at her work station. As a design assistant, their work was only basic and complicated preparation work.

"Good morning, Xiang."

Seeing Xiang Yang walking into the office area, Sarah smiled and said hello happily.

"Why, what are you so happy about?"

Xiang Yang smiled and did not stop, but she was wondering in her heart, could it be that her relationship with Flamel had also begun?

Sarah was stunned, "There's nothing to worry about, I'm naturally happy."

"Yes, haha." Xiang Yang nodded and asked casually: "How do you feel following Flamel lately?"

"It's pretty good. But my ability is limited and I can't help much."

Sarah pursed her lips and gave her answer very straightforwardly.For design work, talent is one aspect, and rich knowledge and experience are the basics.

Every outstanding designer may not have other abilities.

But I am absolutely familiar with the history of art development and the historical context of the countries I am interested in.

"So free." Xiang Yang was about to walk into his office when an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.I was so busy that I couldn't even stay with my girlfriend at night when she came back, so I said:
"Okay, if you're not busy today, find me something."

"sure."

Sarah stood up from her seat and responded immediately.

"Help me find some photos and information about gloves and long scarves from the early 20th century." Xiang Yang paused and added: "Victorian period."

"I know, knitted." Sarah understood immediately.

"clever."

Xiang Yang praised it. Lace, a textile technology that appeared in the 15th century, only appeared on the cuffs, collars and stocking edges of aristocratic men during the Victorian period.

Many people think it is the traditional craft of gloves, but it is not.

Sarah did a good job of avoiding a misconception.

"Go buy a cup of coffee, and I'll treat you to it." Xiang Yang, who couldn't let people work in vain, took out his wallet from his pocket with a smile, "When I come back later, if I'm not busy today, I'd better give it to you before get off work. I."

"Ok, no problem."

Sarah nodded and smiled.

But she soon noticed that Xiang Yang had stopped and a charming smile appeared on his face as he stared at his wallet.

Out of curiosity, she lowered her head and glanced at the wallet that was open. A picture of a girl was hidden inside.

The girl in a pink dress had a sweet smile, showing her teeth.

"Is this the design director's legendary girlfriend?"

Sarah thought
