Chapter 108: A Stunning Work
“What’s going on? Why is there a paper box?”
“Oh my god, she actually put her design in a box. What is this designer thinking?”
“It’s a well known fact that designs have to be placed on a hanger and not in a box. What’s wrong with this designer?”
Listening to the chattering of the audience below the stage, Yan Yunge, who was sitting in the dark, could not help but frown slightly.
He had always been worried about Lu An’an, afraid that something would happen to Lu An’an.
That day, he also wanted to comfort Lu An’an properly, but Lu An’an did not give him a chance.
Although she was not a professional designer, he knew that the design work could not be placed in the box.
Lu An’an had actually placed her work in a cardboard box. It was obvious that she had given up on the competition.
“Alright, there’s no need for us to look at it anymore.” The main judge looked at the cardboard box and said unhappily, “Designer 6 has already violated the basic principles of a designer.”
When everyone heard this, there was an uproar.
This was the first design work that had been rejected by the judges in all the competitions that they had participated in.
The judges stood up and in front of everyone, they pointed at the cardboard box and said, “It’s disrespectful to put a wedding dress in a cardboard box. This is a sample design. We have to present it to our customers in the most perfect form.”
“To put your own work in such a box, and let the box damage it, this is a kind of blasphemy.”
……
“I refuse to look at such a work that lacks the spirit of a designer.”
Gu Anning smiled proudly.
She looked at Lu An’an and said in a low voice, “Lu An’an, you’re too smart for your own good. I can’t believe you actually gave up. Do you know what kind of people are here? How dare you do such a thing? I don’t know if I’m praising you for your intelligence or your stupidity.”
Lu An’an listened to Gu Anning’s sarcastic remarks coldly. The judges were about to announce the shortlist for this year’s design competition.
She stepped forward and shouted, “Wait a minute.”
Everyone’s eyes were on Lu An’an.
The judges looked at her and frowned slightly. “Contestant No. 6, what are you trying to do?”
“You haven’t seen my work yet. You can’t announce the spots for the finals.”
“There’s nothing to see in your work anymore,” the judge said calmly. “You don’t have the spirit of a designer. You violated the basic principles of a designer. I think a designer like you…”
Lu An’an didn’t wait for the judge to finish speaking. She immediately rushed to the stage and opened the box. Then, she took out her wedding dress design from the box.
The judges were criticizing Lu An’an. However, when they saw her design, they were stunned.
No one had ever seen such a simple wedding dress.
It was so simple.
It was also like a soft cloud.
It was just a white dress, but it looked so soft and ethereal.
“Judges, I know that you are very angry that I put my work in a cardboard box. Please allow me to explain,” Lu An’an said calmly.
“The people who buy wedding dresses are all ordinary people. The wedding dress is a memorial. Perhaps you will only wear it once in your life. What will happen after you wear it? Most likely, it will be stored in a corner as a permanent memorial.
If it is not stored well, then the wedding dress will suffer the fate of being discarded.
I have designed this wedding dress with fine cut and soft material. No matter how it is placed, it will not get deformed. It is suitable for all girls who dream of having a wedding dress.
Many years later, when the customers take it out from this box, they will find that the wedding dress is still as exquisite and beautiful as it was many years ago, just as when they entered their wedding hall.”
