Giants Counterattack: The Strongest Female Match

Chapter 58 Difficulties
"How did this happen? Which link went wrong?"

Gu Xiran looked at the big red rags that he had cut into a mess in his hand, feeling very distressed.She kept banging her head, hoping to find the root of the problem.

Originally, according to her plan, the bright red silk satin in her hand would be transformed into a large picture of peonies like paper-cutting according to the lines she had drawn.Then after shaping, the overlay is added to the dress.

But for some reason, she followed the paper-cutting procedure step by step, but what she cut out was such a pile of rotten cloth strips.Not only can you not see that it is a peony, but you can't even find any beauty.

The drawing is correct, the cutting method is correct, which link is wrong?
Gu Xiran repeated the procedure she had just done on the paper, but she didn't find a problem in any link, which made a cloud of fog appear in her mind, and she couldn't figure it out.

She touched the red cloth that had turned into rotten strips with one hand, while looking at the paper window grilles that had just been cut, thinking about the difference between the two, she couldn't help but fell into hard thinking.

At this time, the touch between the two seemed to make Gu Xiran find something.

She immediately got up, came to the table, and took another complete piece of red cloth in her hand.Soft and silky touch, bright colors, this is how the piece of satin in front of me feels to Gu Xiran.

But the white paper next to it used for pattern making gave Gu Xiran a rough, hard, featureless and glossy feel.

But such a piece of rough, hard, featureless and glossy white paper turned into a beautiful window grille in the end.But the soft, silky, bright and beautiful satin has turned into rotten cloth.

This is the essential difference in materials, and has nothing to do with drawing or cutting.

It was supposed to be a happy thing to finally figure out the root of the problem, but Gu Xiran couldn't be happy anyway.

Because of her at this moment, she just crawled out of one pit, and then fell into another pit.I found the reason why it was cut into rotten strips, but I didn't find out how to cut the silk in my hand into a complete peony flower picture.

"Huh... How can I cut this piece of cloth into the shape I want without changing the characteristics of the silk?" Gu Xiran took the silk in his hand and turned left and right, but he couldn't find it. In the absence of a solution, I decided to cut the cloth into several small pieces for experimentation.

The first method she thought of was to bake the cloth over an open fire to harden it.After changing the soft nature of the satin fabric, it can be smoothly cut into shape.

So Gu Xiran immediately picked out a piece of cloth, put it on the open flame and roasted it for a while.After a few minutes, the fabric did stiffen from the heat.But the color also became dull and dull, and the touch became even more messy.It can be said in one sentence that the cloth is completely ruined.

The second method that Gu Xiran thought of was to apply glue on the fabric.After the glue dries, the fabric will definitely stiffen accordingly.At this time, she can take the whole piece of cloth and cut it.After the desired pattern comes out, wash off the glue without damaging the color of the fabric.

But Gu Xiran's thoughts were good, but the final reality deviated from what she thought.

The silk satin coated with glue did harden and was smoothly cut into the shape of a peony flower.But when the glue is cleaned, it can't be washed back to the soft and silky touch.

If Gu Xiran insists on using this method to complete this design.The result was a gown that couldn't possibly live up to the fluid, glamorous beauty she had intended.

So the second method, after the experiment, Gu Xiran chose to give up.

After two failed attempts, Gu Xiran had to try a third time due to the tight time.

This time, Gu Xiran chose a very stupid way to try.

That is to align the cut paper-cut window grilles with the fabric in a one-to-one ratio.Then use a carving knife to draw out pieces according to the lines, and finally shape the whole picture.

After Gu Xiran's experiments, this method can indeed carve out the pattern she wants without changing any essence of the silk and satin.But the energy consumed is huge.

Not only did she have to compare the original picture carefully, but she also had to ensure that her hands did not shake, so as to ensure that the beauty of the pattern would not be damaged after the pattern was completed.

So when Gu Xiran decided to use this method to solve this problem, it took Gu Xiran two hours just to design the paper-cut window grille on the collar.

In the midway of success, Gu Xiran still failed twice and successfully destroyed two pieces of fabric.

But fortunately, when choosing fabrics, there must be sufficient materials.Otherwise, Gu Xiran would have to call Nick again and send cloth over urgently.

After solving the problem, Gu Xiran spent most of his time on it.However, during the process, she still proceeded step by step according to the plan.

Soon the first dress was completed with the assistance of three assistants.

And the second, third, and fourth pieces are about to slowly take shape when everyone is orderly.

As time progresses, the day for the student design exhibition held by Parsons School of Design is slowly approaching.

At this time, besides getting the design out, Gu Xiran still has a lot of things to prepare for.

For example, the models on display, the appearance during the show, the background music during the catwalk, etc., are all issues that she needs to consider urgently.

If the person facing all these difficulties is Gu Xiran who has not time-traveled to a TV series or has just time-traveled into a TV series.Then she must be overwhelmed and at a loss.

But at this moment, after actively enriching herself and accumulating contacts in New York, she can handle these problems with ease.

Like the background music of the catwalk, after listening to many ancient songs on the Internet, she chose a new Chinese-style song "Picturesque Jiangshan" promised by the little queen.This song has not only beautiful lyrics, strong Chinese style, but also the fusion of western music, full of rhythm.

When he heard this song, Gu Xiran felt that it was similar to his own design, and it was very suitable as background music for catwalks.

As for the look during the catwalk, Gu Xiran knows how to use resources.She invited Vivienne, a stylist with whom she has a good relationship with Fashion Magazine, to help.

The design of the overall shape was also negotiated with Vivienne during the free time at noon in the past two days.

As for the most important model, with the help of Xiao Han, Gu Xiran also contacted the internationally renowned model company Phantom International to select.

But today, Gu Xiran is about to put down his work and go to Phantom International to choose a model with Betty.
