Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 971: Inside and Outside the Show (Part )

the other side.

On the first day of the fashion week, compared to other Chinese stars who came to Paris specially, Liu Qianqian, who had the advantage of being at home, seemed particularly free.

Her announcement had already been arranged by Richemont Group.

With a special car and a special person to pick me up, and my friend Laura by my side, it was so comfortable.

Of course, the work that needs to be done still needs to be done.

Wearing gorgeous Van Cleef & Arpels jewellery and a dress tailored for her by Richemont Group's clothing brand Chloé, posing for photos in front of the media accompanied by design director Hannah McGibbon is a must.

Coincidentally, this female design director will also end her work at Chloé after this show.

But no matter how coincidental it is, the differences between people are obvious.

Even though the big show has already begun, the news of Pirate Lord's departure is still attracting attention.

However, the departure of this design director caused little stir in the industry.

The reason is obvious.

With Hannah's track record, she can't even be compared with Karl Lagerfeld, who has been in the brand twice, or even Stella Nina McCartney and Phoebe Ferro.

However, the frequent changes of creative directors have also had an impact on this long-standing luxury brand.

After all, every design director has his or her own personal style.

Changing someone else will mean another round of adjustment.

Therefore, brands and designers complement each other, especially people like Xiang Yang who have made great contributions to Hermès and launched popular designs that have attracted worldwide attention to its sub-brands.

It is even more rare to see.

"Liu, I didn't realize you can be so eye-catching even in girlish designs." After Liu Qianqian returned to her seat after cooperating with the media's shooting requirements, Laura whispered in her ear.

She benefited from this show.

Sitting in the first row with Liu Qianqian.

"No way~" Liu Qianqian said with a smile, covering her mouth, and looked down at the dress she was wearing.

It’s not as pretty as the floral dress Xiangyang made for her.

And it's so tender.

It's a bit inappropriate for her as a mother of two babies.

But Chloé is one of the few fashion brands under the Richemont Group, which focuses on hard luxury brands.

It is also the "face" brand of other business departments of the group.

Liu Qianqian, who ranks among the top three Chinese celebrities just by the endorsement fees she gets from this group every year, has nothing wrong with cooperating with the group's arrangements. It's Xiangyang's fault for not making new clothes for her.

"Come on, look at the camera."

As Laura spoke, she raised her phone and asked Liu Qianqian to take a photo with her.

Although the camera function of the iPhone has been improved compared to the previous generation, a camera is still needed if you want to shoot clearer Vlogs.

It's a bit inappropriate to sit in the first row holding a camera.

Laura simply used her cell phone.

Anyway, she sent it to INS.

Seeing her fiddling with her phone, Liu Qianqian looked around and took out her own phone.

Today, she didn't come out with a lipstick box.

The Hermès Kelly Mini on your hand can still hold some things.

Once the phone is unlocked, the screen turns on.
After a "buzzing" sound, the photo of the two of them that Laura had just posted on INS was pushed to her.

Liu Qianqian blinked in surprise.

This speed is indeed a bit fast.

Laura also heard the noise, turned her head and smiled, “Help me order some snacks~”

"I've ordered it." Liu Qianqian pursed her lips. She hadn't realized that Laura had such a side to her. It's true that birds of a feather flock together.

"The shows at Valentino are all about."

"Ok?"

"Look if you don't believe me."

"." After just a quick glance, Liu Qianqian took a deep breath secretly.

It's a bit outrageous.

Almost all the photos of Valentino's fashion show on INS include Xiang Yang. Even Valentino's official INS posted a group photo of Xiang Yang, Little John, Jimmy Dee and Valentino.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing in the photo is little JoJo.

He was lying in Xiangyang's arms, grabbing the collar of Xiangyang's coat and looking inside, his bright eyes seemed to be looking for something.

Outsiders might find it cute.

But Liu Qianqian rolled her eyes helplessly. What was Little JoJo looking for? Need I tell you? It must be related to the ridiculous things Xiangyang and Little John had done to the children.

"Show me the comments." Liu Qianqian sighed, hoping no one would guess.

There are tens of thousands of comments, and it is impossible to read them all in a short period of time.

After scrolling a few times, I found that almost all the comments were discussing this photo.

No one was suspicious of little JoJo's actions
Next to him, Nicholas, who was accompanying Liu Xixi to the Chloé fashion show, couldn't hide his envy when he saw that another show was so popular.

There are many common principles between the fashion and entertainment industries.

More attention also reflects the influence of the brand itself.

But Richemont, which has become the world's second largest luxury goods group since 2004, is not without its troubles. No matter how it integrates internal resources to promote its own clothing brands, the pace of development is always lower than expected.

However, he was pleased that the photo Laura had just posted on INS received thousands of likes and comments in just a few minutes.

Well, almost all of them are from China.

Thinking of the number of fans Liu Xixi has in China.
"Liu, let's take a photo together. I'll post it on Instagram later." Nicholas said to Liu Qianqian with a smile while fiddling with his phone.

It doesn’t matter how much goods you can sell with just one photo.

Van Cleef & Arpels itself is "in short supply".

But exposure is crucial.

“Well, okay.” Liu Qianqian smiled and nodded. Cooperating with the promotion was part of her job. Even though she was now a shareholder of H51 shares, she still needed to fulfill the contracts she had signed with other brands earlier.

Besides, they still give money.

Come to today's show and earn hundreds of thousands of euros.

“Liu, after the event is over, I will introduce you to some friends at the celebration party.” Apart from her status in the industry, as the spokesperson for Van Cleef & Arpels and having come specially to promote Chloé, Liu Qianqian is certainly qualified to attend the celebration party after the show.

Hearing this, Liu Qianqian was not in a hurry to agree.

Instead, he paused and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Nicholas, I have other things to deal with today."

"Oh? Going to meet Xiang? Does he have any other plans?" Nicholas asked curiously.

If that's the case, it would seem better to let Liu go there.

After all, on the first day of the show, the level of the party that Xiangyang attended, including the politicians and wealthy businessmen, was much higher than that of Kou Yi.

But Liu Qianqian said, you think too much.

I'm picking someone up for my husband.
"Haha, Xiang Ye is really something. Let me arrange this kind of small matter." Nicholas showed a hint of anger when he heard that Xiang Yang actually asked his company's Asia-Pacific spokesperson to pick someone up at the airport.

Of course, he was joking.

He looked at Liu Qianqian, who didn't respond, and curled his lips helplessly.

Okay, I'm an outsider and shouldn't talk too much.

However, it is somewhat strange that Xiangyang values ​​the president of FILA so much.

Nicholas, whose mind was no longer on the show, looked down at his phone again and swiped it twice. The screen returned to the original photo of Xiangyang, Little John, Jimmy Di and Valentino.

Suddenly, he was stunned.

"Could it be that Xiangyang is planning to join forces with this Chinese sports brand to acquire FILA and is also interested in acquiring Valentino!!!"

Nicholas lost his composure after a shocking thought suddenly popped up in his mind.

He looked at Liu Qianqian, who was looking through the show introduction with Laura, and then looked down at his phone.

It's no secret in the industry that Valentino is looking to sell his brand.

In fact, because financial reports have to be disclosed every year.

As a senior executive of the luxury goods industry, Nicholas is well aware of brand valuation.

More than 6 million euros.

This is no small amount of money.

But you say Xiangyang has no money to buy it.
Even if he can't pay the full amount, it is possible for him to join forces with others to acquire the property.

Nicholas, who has some understanding of Xiangyang and Liu Qianqian's financial affairs.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I had inadvertently discovered a big secret that would shock the entire fashion industry: Xiang Yang, one of the shareholders of Hermès and in charge of its sub-brands, was about to transform himself into the boss of Valentino.

this.
"Liu, Laura, would you two like to have some drinks before the big show? I'll get them." Nicholas said with his head tilted, finding a lame excuse.

The two people who were whispering were stunned.

Since when did the CEO of Van Cleef & Arpels have to work as a waiter?

This year's big show.

It turns out that anything can happen.

Well.
Yesterday, I was writing and my thigh suddenly cramped. I fell asleep again when I lay down on the bed. Sorry. I will post this first and continue writing the rest.
