Interstellar Travel: Becoming a Dress-Up Game Designer

Chapter 195

Although most of Qingfengyi's products are independently designed, the style must be Chinese. Lin Shuying approves of other styles, but she won't put them on the public eye because she is a die-hard fan of Chinese culture.

As the beautiful woman walked by, a male celebrity wearing the same robe emerged from behind.

He wore a black gauze hat, a robe with python patterns, and gold-embroidered tiger shoes, with an exquisite jade pendant at his waist. In his hand, he held a folding fan, on which were written in a flowing, elegant style: "The mountains and rivers are endless."

The audience was so excited they almost fainted!

"Ahhh, my crush is looking at me! My crush is looking at me!"

"Qingfengyi, you are my eternal god. I am so happy that you could actually persuade my idol to come!"

"Ahhh, how can Barbie Fashion's mannequin compare?! This is a real man, my idol, I love you!"

"My god, you look so cool and handsome in this outfit, I want to have your baby!"

"My god, you look the most handsome in the entire galaxy when you show your face, second only to the Grand Marshal!"

"My mecha Grand Marshal, he looks so... imposing in this outfit, it's like a combination of gentleness and power."

"The one in front, this is called a peerless gentleman, polite, elegant and noble."

.......

The live stream chat was flooded with comments, invisible to the models on the runway, but their assistants, who had accompanied them, were constantly watching. Seeing the excitement, they excitedly clenched their fists and screamed, trying to stifle their noise so as not to disturb the event.

The male celebrity strode to the center of the runway, followed by other celebrities. The third celebrity to showcase a hair ornament was the camellia ornament made by Lin Shuying, paired with a previously worn qi-xiong ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress).

The beautiful woman carried an octagonal red palace lantern, her clothes a combination of white, red, and green. A green shawl hung halfway down, fluttering in the breeze. At the same time, strands of her hair, adorned with a camellia-shaped hair ornament, also swayed gracefully.

Deep red camellias paired with pure white and green camellias, along with some pearl and gold flowers, combine purity and vibrancy, creating a striking visual impact.

The viewers who had previously boasted that Qingfengyi couldn't compare to Barbie Fashion have fallen silent. Barbie Fashion is like a holographic fashion show taking place in real life, while Qingfengyi is a real fashion show.

It's undeniable that things are always more difficult to do and achieve the same effect in reality than in holography. Even under the harsh realities of reality, Qingfengyi's works and fashion shows are still so beautiful and dreamlike that viewers are overwhelmed by their beauty.

Many people are wondering if such beautiful clothes would look as good on them? Or even better?

Thinking about this, I secretly placed an order, making sure to find a store with good reviews.

Most of Qingfengyi's designs have been licensed; if you see them on the runway, you can purchase them from authorized Qingfengyi stores. With the market opening up and advancements in fabric manufacturing techniques, production costs have rapidly decreased. As long as expensive gemstones, pearls, gold, silver, etc., are not used, a set of Qingfengyi's heavily crafted clothing can be purchased for just eight or nine hundred Star Coins.

Of course, the fit may not be as good as Qingfengyi's, after all, making clothes is not a simple matter, especially making ancient costumes.

This may be related to the fact that most ancient Chinese clothing was made by women in the family. Since family members made the clothes, they could know the body measurements at any time, and if they didn't fit, they could immediately make alterations, so the clothes would always fit properly.

It's understandable that a bespoke, custom-made series is more difficult to produce.

Therefore, clothes that are labeled as such are never quite right to wear, even if body measurements are divided into four, five, or even a dozen. The human body is amazing; not only are there innate differences, but also different body shapes due to lifestyle habits, movement habits, and so on, which leads to different needs for clothing.

This is why clothes become more comfortable the more you wear them. Fabric has elasticity, and over time it will naturally conform to the body, or a person's habits will adapt to the clothes.

Next outfit: the one ranked number one on the game's outfit leaderboard! A tea fairy-colored ensemble, very fresh and ethereal. The outfit was designed by the player themselves, and the designer's name is displayed at the bottom of the screen.

No one expected that the clothes in the game would look so good in real life!

The more refined fabric gives it a luxurious feel, a subtle yet sophisticated elegance. It doesn't look like a typical fresh, green outfit; instead, it's radiant and incredibly beautiful.

The hairpin design has changed slightly. The previous player's hairpin wasn't very well-made or designed; the flowers looked scattered and lacked a theme. Although it was still very pretty, it wasn't refined enough.

Hairpins are very particular about exquisite design; otherwise, even expensive gemstones will look cheap and plasticky. With exquisite design, even plastic can be made into a very luxurious piece.

The meticulousness lies not only in the production process but also in the design. It's somewhat similar to painting; take the same sketch of a rose, and a skilled artist's drawing will look beautiful, while a novice's will appear messy.

Lin Shuying slightly altered the camellia arrangement, adding some tea leaves to fill the blank spaces, along with pearls and gemstones. She also added a particularly large light green peony as a backing, along with a blue phoenix hairpin, and styled her hair in a layered, cloud-like updo.

The style is completely different from the makeup and styling designed by that player, who had a somewhat rustic, country boy feel. Lin Shuying's design, on the other hand, gives off the vibe of a young nobleman or princess, exuding luxury, elegance, and grace.

The two celebrities invited to perform were also fifteen or sixteen-year-old children, with youthful and beautiful looks, but they had no hair, so it took a bit of time to put on wigs.

In addition, the props are also a bit different. Since it is March, the season of spring breeze, green grass and flowers, you should take a kite to go for a spring outing.

Women's outfits are paired with a crossbody bag embroidered with camellia flowers, while men's outfits are paired with a sandalwood fan.

The men's clothing was designed by Lin Shuying, but since the player was a woman, only the women's clothing was designed.

The man wears a white gauze cloak with a grass-green gradient inner garment embroidered with orchids and a white crane with outstretched wings. White boots tuck into his trousers, and a blue silk ribbon ends with red tassels. A subtle touch of red brightens the otherwise understated outfit, making the male model lively and dynamic.

Her hairstyle was also loose, adorned with a flowing cloud crown and long hairpins inserted in pairs. A section of her hair was pulled back and tied into a high ponytail. Agate bead chains hung from both ends, dangling in front of her chest, with a teardrop-shaped tea fairy pendant, vivid and lively. Her hair flowed gracefully over her shoulders, with a thin braid on each side, each braid adorned with a single emerald jade.

The two models also had a short performance, which was a perk for the entries that made the list.

The beautiful girl in front of them ran with a kite in her hand, turned back and smiled sweetly at the boy, her silvery laughter was incredibly beautiful and melodious. The audience was overjoyed, and seeing the little beauty's face, they were completely captivated by her cuteness, wishing they could take her home and raise her as their own child.

"Brother, hurry up and go to the front to help me with the match."

The man behind her seemed helpless and said, "Slow down, don't ruin the clothes your mother made."

She quickened her pace and ran towards him, handing the roller to the boy and then carrying the kite, lifting her skirt and running forward. Suddenly, patches of green grass began to spread from beneath her feet, interspersed with wildflowers. Soon, the vast expanse of grass and flowers merged with the tall peach trees around it, immersing all the guests in a vibrant springtime world, leaving them speechless with amazement at the beauty before them.

Some of the designers were seeing something so beautiful for the first time. Previously, they were so engrossed in their own informational cocoons that they didn't understand the beauty of nature and had only come because of company requirements. Now, suddenly overwhelmed by the stunning scenery, they were overwhelmed, their mouths agape and their eyes unsure where to look.

When the flowers bloomed at my feet, I couldn't resist reaching out to touch them, but they were just light effects; I could see them, but couldn't touch them. Suddenly, I felt an emptiness inside, a deep sadness.

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, carrying a faint fragrance of flowers and grass, dispelling the melancholy in my heart and instantly making me feel refreshed and relaxed.

What is this fragrance?

The designer next to me picked up the pretty bag they'd been given when we came in, took out a very elegant runway booklet, looked at it, and said, "It's the latest perfume from the collaboration between Qingfengyi and Meiliyese—Spring Grass Camp Flower. It smells wonderful; I'll order two bottles later. It's really nice to smell when I'm feeling creatively drained."

The designer who asked the question was surprised to find a comprehensive brochure inside the bag and quickly picked it up to read. Previously, she had thought it was inconvenient for Qingfengyi to provide a bag for their offline events, as it would be a hassle to carry around. It turned out to be quite clever to use it here.

The bag is very simple and elegant, off-white, with a beautiful woman icon of "Qingfengyi" printed in the middle, along with the three large characters "Qingfengyi".

It's made with the cheapest materials available in interstellar space, which is why many top designers don't really like it.

To my surprise, inside the box, there was not only an instruction manual, but also a bottle of water and a small sachet.

The designer had no idea what a sachet was, mistaking it for a small bag containing something. So she took it out and opened the gold ribbon to look inside, finding only a slightly soft, square object printed with peach blossoms. The surface was made of mesh, and the contents were unknown.

When I took it out, a fragrant aroma wafted out – the scent of peach blossoms.

This is the fragrance that came from the peach blossoms blooming over here in Qingfengyi.

Only after putting the sachet back did I notice the beautiful peach blossoms embroidered on it. There was only one sachet, with two blossoms and a bud. Although the embroidery was small, it was incredibly delicate. The pink and white gradient of the peach blossoms looked almost like a painting. The silk threads shimmered under the light—so luxurious.

After admiring the sachets, I came back to my senses and continued reading the instruction manual in my hand. The manual was more than thirty pages long, introducing the special effects used in the show, the advertisements they had undertaken, the clothes and jewelry on display, and who the celebrities were.

These materials were presented to guests in paper form (using special interstellar paper, not plant-based paper), giving them a sense of being received with great respect and being valued.

The instruction manual is also beautifully designed. The cover, like the bag, is simple and off-white, with only a light breeze icon printed on it. Inside is a table of contents, with a background image of a picturesque ancient tea village. It made the designer want to retreat to that place and live in seclusion.
