my old life

Chapter 2469 High-End Customization
The old man never thought that I would kill him to return the carbine. I don't need to show up. I will have a perfect alibi when the time comes!
"Remember to give me the address later." Bai Xingchen said slyly, his small eyes were already shining.

"OK, God knows this..." I smiled and drew a long voice, but didn't say the second half of the sentence.

"You know, I know!" Bai Xingchen said slyly, and the matter was settled so happily.

I said that the old man will definitely go back to visit him if he plays tricks. Even if I don't go back, I will let Bai Xingchen go back and invite him to taste the 'horse meat scones'!

Half an hour later, the car came to a bustling street. The car stopped in front of a small retro building, and someone was waiting at the door to greet it.

After getting out of the car, I stretched myself. I didn't know what kind of shop it was, but there were several national flags hanging at the door.

"Jennifer, what are we doing here?"

"Buy things, Mike pays the bill." Jennifer looked at me with a proud face, as if she had picked up a big deal.

"Oh?" I couldn't help laughing when I heard this. It reminded me that I took my friends to wash the China World Trade Center in blood. I didn't expect that I came here for shopping today.

At ten o'clock in the morning, there were not many people on the street, and the store looked like it had just opened. It is estimated that so many customers came as soon as it opened, and the boss would be smiling from ear to ear.

Entering the small building, I feel that the space is very large. The entire first floor is covered with wooden floors, and the walls are also decorated with wood materials. This is a suit shop.

The most eye-catching pictures on the wall are all kinds of photos. Judging from the clothes, they should be royal or aristocratic, and there are some group photos of celebrities.

Any advertisement is not as powerful as these photos, and it also virtually proves the strength of this suit shop.

A group of clerks looked a bit older, with average looks but a very stable look, which fit the temperament of this store.

Jennifer stepped forward to communicate with a group of shop assistants, pointing back at us from time to time, not knowing what she was talking about.

Soon a clerk in his early 50s walked towards me. He was dressed in a suit and looked very sophisticated with a little baldness on his head.

"Hi sir, welcome to Saville Henry! I am Rich, the exclusive tailor who is in charge of receiving you. It is a great honor to serve sir."

This guy speaks standard Chinese. Although the emphasis is a bit awkward, I can understand every word and every sentence.

Everyone who comes in has an exclusive tailor, and they communicate in various languages, and instantly feel an international style.

"Thanks." I nodded slightly in gratitude, never being obnoxious to be polite.

"Sir, you can tell me what kind of needs you have. Please allow me to measure your body first." Rich took out the measuring tape. His politeness made me a little embarrassed.

The Bai Xingchen next to him is also Chinese-language receptionist. I feel that this store is very unexpected. The various languages ​​show their strength, which proves that their customers come from all over the world.

"I don't have any special requirements, as long as the clothes are comfortable and decent."

"Do you have any requirements for the fabric?" Rich asked while measuring, and kept recording the measured data on the cardboard.

"The fabric is smoother to reduce wrinkles, and it is best to suit the current weather."

"What kind of suit style did you prefer in the past? What brands do you often wear?"

"I prefer suits with a tight waist, and I often wear Issey Miyake."

"Do you like pleated fabrics, sir?"

"I need to be formal and not too casual."

"Okay, do you have a favorite fabric for the lining?"

"Just recommend one for me. The buttons should be harder... horn buttons."

"No problem, sir's figure is very standard, I'll take a sample and try it on, please wait a moment."

"OK, thanks."

Rich's service was surprisingly good, everyone has their own area, which is a nice touch.

"Mr. Ming, is there any difference between a custom-made suit and a suit in a shopping mall?" Li Xiaorou asked curiously, and she had been standing by the side from the beginning.

"The difference is very simple, just like the difference between freshly squeezed juice and bottled juice. One can be adjusted according to one's own taste, while the other is passively accepting a fixed taste."

I used a very simple example, the difference between customization and mass production is that simple.

"I still don't quite understand, the suits here are so expensive!" Li Xiaorou pointed to the label of the suit on the wall, it was a very old style.

"Everyone's body data is different. Even if you can wear a one-size-fits-all suit, the feeling you get is different."

I explained with a smile that customization means that it completely conforms to your own body data and can achieve maximum comfort and decentness.

"It's so expensive, is it worth it?"

"Everyone will have a separate version according to different body data, which is not comparable to a uniform version. Customization pursues a nearly perfect experience."

I said in my heart that Li Xiaorou doesn't understand the charm of customization. When a person's consumption needs are almost harsh, only customization can meet the needs of customers.

"Can I do a set here?" Li Xiaorou asked in a low voice, her eyes fell on Jennifer in the distance.

"Of course, the most important thing in life is to be happy." I agreed straightforwardly, after all, Mike paid the bill today.

Soon the tailor Rich came over with two half-finished pieces, one not fully seamed and the other without sleeves.

"Sir, please try on the fit."

"OK." I put on my clothes and raised my head and chest, trying to make myself stand more standard.

"Please relax a little and keep the most accustomed movements, unless you usually like to stand like a soldier."

Rich speaks very humorously, and a simple request is said in a joking tone, which will not make people feel embarrassed.

"thanks for your reminder."

After I relaxed, Rich began to measure various data, and every detail was in place. This feeling is indescribable.

"According to my husband's needs, I recommend using Italian Zegna fabrics, which are light and breathable and fit close to the body."

"can."

"Does the style need to be single-breasted or double-breasted? What kind of occasion does it need to be used?" Rich asked in detail, feeling like he was creating a work of art.

"Single-breasted, give me some formal feeling, don't be too relaxed."

The most taboo thing for young people to wear a suit is not the quality of the fabric but the choice of style. An overly mature style will give people an old-fashioned feeling.

"Okay, wait a minute and I'll print a 3D template for Mr."

I have also received custom-made suits before, but this is the first time I have customized suits in Yingguo, and it is still in such a high-end suit shop.

In fact, I don't need to understand the history and strength of this store, I just need to look at the photos of the royal celebrities hanging on the wall to get a glimpse of the whole leopard.

The whole store is filled with the fragrance of fabrics, and there is music that is so soothing that it is almost inaudible. It is only after a person relaxes that he can pay attention to the details.

I didn't hear the music when I first entered the door. I only heard it when I really relaxed. It gave me the feeling of an elegant gentleman.

Generally speaking, it takes a few weeks to make this kind of fully customized suit, and the semi-customized suit will be much worse, and the experience will be much worse.

High-end customization will make a plastic model according to the body data, use 3D printing technology to reproduce it one-to-one, and then use it as a foil for the suit.

Hours slipped by from suit to shirt to tie and I didn't get bored at all.

For those who really pursue perfection, this process is a kind of enjoyment. It is an experience of pursuing quality and an inner expansion. It will not feel boring at all.

After all the data was completed, it was already past one o'clock at noon, and everyone's data was basically completed synchronously. The twenty or so tailors would not allow any customers to have any waiting time.

Jennifer went to swipe the card to check out, and the bill was more than two meters long, and there was a string of numbers behind each item, which should represent the price of each custom item.

Everyone came empty-handed, and then left empty-handed. I didn't feel the joy of shopping at all, but I know the price is expensive today!

A custom-made suit starts at £[-], which is just a threshold for entry. The price of fabrics and tailoring grades will increase by more than ten times!
