Chapter 154

With Bai Yulan's consent, Xiao Shuwei even put on that suit for a bit of flamboyance.

She took out her mobile phone, took a few selfies of the clothes, and saved them in the "Materials" album.

During the vacation, she bought a lot of introductory textbooks for fashion designers, which suggested that designers should know how to collect materials from every corner of life.She also has a sketchbook specially prepared for this purpose.Now more than half of the pages of her sketchbook are full of drafts, which are the crystallization of her continuous inspiration in daily life.

With this inspiration, Xiao Shuwei began to design "ethnic dolls".But she doesn't have a sewing machine or fabric at hand, so she can't make a finished product, so she can only draw design diagrams to satisfy her cravings.

Two weeks after the start of school, Xiao Shuwei visited Lu Jia's studio as scheduled.

The name of the studio is "Cece Studio", which is Lu Jia's English name. It is located in an office building not far from Nanyuan University, and it takes only 10 minutes to walk there.

The decoration of the studio is very simple, dark blue walls, milky white stone brick floor, white shelves divide the whole big room into several areas, there is an office area with computer desks and chairs, there is also a conference area, clothing display area and a crafting area with several sewing machines.

Xiao Shuwei was attracted by one of the old-fashioned sewing machines with pedals.

The sewing machine has a shiny surface and is well maintained, just like new, with the words "Butterfly Brand" written on it.

Xiao Shuwei remembers that when she was a child, she also had an old-fashioned sewing machine like this, which was also a Butterfly brand. It is said that it was a relic left by her grandma. Unfortunately, it was given away by Yun Jinghua because it took up space when she moved.

Seeing Xiao Shuwei's interest in old-fashioned sewing machines, Lu Jia smiled and said, "Actually, this kind of sewing machine is easier to use than electric ones. Although there are not as many patterns as electric ones, and they are not as quick to learn as electric ones, they are durable and easy to eat thick cloth."

Anyway, the studio is on holiday today and there is not much work to do, so Lu Jia showed Xiao Shuwei how to use the old-fashioned sewing machine.Xiao Shuwei's hands-on ability is better than ordinary people. She quickly learned the basic operations, and even sewed a few cloth pockets with scraps of fabric, filled them with sand and sewed them, and she was ready to kick and play.

After chatting, Xiao Shuwei knew that Lu Jia's studio was just in its infancy, and there was still a long way to go before establishing her own exclusive retail store.Now the studio will mainly cooperate with agents, that is, hand over the original design clothes to the agents, distribute them to major retail stores, and also accept some outsourced design projects.

Lu Jia told Xiao Shuwei that she planned to hold a fashion design-related training lecture for the newly recruited employees in the studio. She would hold two classes every weekend for a month in a row. She hoped that Xiao Shuwei could come and listen.

Naturally, Xiao Shuwei would not let go of such a good opportunity, and she immediately agreed to Lu Jia's invitation.

In addition, Lu Jia told Xiao Shuwei that she had just received several outsourced design projects for winter women's clothing from friends in the industry.One of the projects is to design a winter women's clothing series for a clothing foreign trade company. The theme is "ethnic style", and elements with Chinese ethnic customs need to be added.

Xiao Shuwei immediately thought of the Bouyei ethnic costumes saved on her mobile phone.

She handed Lu Jia the photos on her phone, and Lu Jia was also very interested after seeing them.

Lu Jia said: "Miao costumes are very popular. In fact, you see, Buyi costumes are also very beautiful."

Lu Jia immediately decided to set the theme of the ethnic style series as "Miao and Buyi style clothing", and then wrote this idea on the whiteboard. After the other partners in the Monday studio went to work, they would discuss and discuss in detail.

After that, Lu Jia asked Xiao Shuwei if she would like to work part-time in her studio.

In addition to attending lectures, Xiao Shuwei can visit and study her studio at any time.

Xiao Shuwei nodded in agreement.

Lu Jia added: "You proposed the theme of national costumes this time, and you can also participate in the design like other people. If you adopt it, I will give you a commission at that time, and the commission treatment is the same as other people in our studio. It’s the same as that of employees.” She said and smiled again, “Actually, it’s not the same, others have a fixed salary every month, but you don’t. How about this, if your design is adopted, I’ll give you a bonus as appropriate. Two percent commission, do you think this is acceptable?"

Xiao Shuwei was silent for a moment.

What she is worried about now is not the amount of commission.

After reading so many introductory books for designers, Xiao Shuwei deeply felt that compared with real professional designers, the clothes she designed had many flaws, and many ideas and inspirations that she thought were unique had actually been lost. People have used it.

The more books she read, the less confident Xiao Shuwei felt.

The success of the few sets of clothes she designed before is largely due to Mr. Z's powerful skills.Every time Mr. Z can quickly understand the intention of Xiao Shuwei's clothes design, and can also help to modify some small details with defects.

If there is no Mr. Z, just relying on her sketch-like designs, there is no way to make the final product in the end.

So Xiao Shuwei knew very well that even if she searched all over the world, it was impossible for her to find a good assistant like Mr. Z who was as skilled and willing to serve her wholeheartedly...
