Rebirth In Hollywood

Chapter 638 The intersection of Eastern and Western aesthetics

In New York at the beginning of September, not only the 24-hour sleepless 'Sexy City', but also the carnival from the fashion industry, the New York Spring/Summer Fashion Week will be hotly opened every time this season, Manhattan Famous Bryant Park gets bustling.

For fashionistas, this is a trend party focusing on makeup, hairstyle, manicure, accessories, etc. It is a beautiful feast for the visual senses. Road monsters and monsters once again gathered in Manhattan.

Charlize Theron, who has started to enter the fashion industry, certainly will not miss this kind of moment. Ryan was immediately pulled over by her after returning to North America from Australia.

"ct is not yet qualified to enter the four major fashion weeks."

In a black Bentley, a dressed-up Charlize said to Ryan, "The company has just been established, and it is not eligible to get tickets for such a large-scale catwalk event."

The car turned from Fifth Avenue into Bryant, which is Central Park, and waited in line for the organizer's scheduling arrangement.

Since 1993, when New York Fashion Week was held in Central Park, the runway was placed in white tents, and only invited buyers, industry insiders, media and celebrities from all walks of life were allowed to enter.

This year, a total of three giant tents have been installed in Central Park, and during Fashion Week, 63 fashion shows will be held in the giant tents, and another 12 fashion shows will be scattered in other parts of New York.

Of course, these are all on the way, and Ryan only learned from Charlize's introduction.

After waiting for a few minutes, the Bentley RV slowly drove to the vicinity of a giant tent. After Ryan pulled Charlize out of the car, he ignored the swarming reporters and walked in quickly under the escort of bodyguards. in the tent.

This is the spring and summer fashion conference belonging to Versace, and Ryan is not familiar with the fashion industry. Most of the time, he exists as a foil for Charlize. Even after entering the tent, he is silent most of the time, but his status as a superstar and Disney owner is the most attractive halo.

Faced with those who came to say hello, Ryan shook hands or nodded, neither arrogant nor overly serious.

These include Giorgio Armani, Anna Wintour, Donatella Versace and others who have heard of fashion before, as well as Richard Gere, Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz and other familiar Hollywood stars.

"What a strange girl."

Looking at the back of the girl who said hello at the end,

As Ryan walked towards the front seat, he whispered to Charlize who was holding him. "How did you get so thin?"

It was a brunette girl with brunette skin, about five feet five inches tall, and seemed to weigh no more than eighty pounds, which was an apt term for skinny.

"This way."

Pulling down Ryan, the two found their place. After sitting down, Charlize said, "That's Allegra Versace, who just inherited 50% of the shares from Gianni Versace this year. At least $500 million, she is said to suffer from severe anorexia and can only survive on nutritional fluids."

"It turned out to be her." Ryan shook his head.

"Have you seen her before?" Charlize's eyes widened, turning to look at him. "I remember you had no intersection with the fashion world."

"I heard it from others."

After this sentence, Charlize immediately thought that there was another fashionista from Australia beside him, pouted, and said no more.

Ryan did not continue to explain. He had heard of this heir of the Versace family because of his previous life, and he vaguely remembered a certain physical novel he had read, in which the protagonist met Allegra Versace. Severe anorexia that vomited immediately after eating was cured with a few meals of Chinese food...

"Hi, Ryan. Hi, Charlie."

There was a crisp greeting from the side, and when Ryan turned to look, Charlize was shaking hands with Paris Hilton and Nicky Hilton.

"Long time no see, Pari."

Ryan shook her hand gently, and greeted Nicky Hilton from a distance.

Paris Hilton sat next to Charlize and said with a smile, "You're too busy, Ryan."

"When will the new movie be released?" Charlize suddenly asked.

At this time, more and more people entered the show. Many people were using the free time before the fashion show to socialize. They shuttled back and forth between rows of white chairs. The front row was where heavyweight guests sat, which was relatively busy place.

After dealing with a few people who came to say hello, Paris Hilton continued the topic just now, "Is it "The Wax Museum of Horror"? It's going to be next year."

Because Paris Hilton signed a contract with Pie Kingsley's agency, Ryan also heard people say that this Fox remake of the horror film should be the one from the previous life, the only difference is that Paris Hilton From the supporting role of the vase in the previous life, she became the heroine with the most important role.

In fact, Paris Hilton has become the darling of the paparazzi since relying on Ryan's support and making a certain reputation in Hollywood with two "Charlie's Angels". One of the famous topic queens, there will be some eye-catching lace news from time to time.

Different from the disappearance of the previous life and the videotape incident, most of these news focused on the conflict with other female stars. The most hotly hyped by the tabloids was her relationship with Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears. contradiction between.

Just last month, a paparazzi from the "California Police" took a candid photo of the three drunken fights in a famous nightclub in Los Angeles, causing a public outcry.

And Paris Hilton's hostile relationship with Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears has also been fired by the tabloids into one of Hollywood's most famous rivalries.

Maybe Paris Hilton is a little confused in her private life, but she is definitely not stupid, on the contrary, she is very smart. In the past two years, she has used her fame and with the support of her family, she has also created her own fashion brand and chain storefront. It started not long ago, but it is much stronger than the 'ct' company that Charlize has just established.

The two women also have a ton of common thread in this regard.

The catwalk opened quickly. At the end of the catwalk, Versace's iconic Medusa head logo was shining under the light. Female models led by Kate Moss appeared in the stretch. on stage.

"Exaggerated, sexy, expressing the freehand brushwork of dreams."

In the sound of music, Charlize whispered in Ryan's ear, "Although Gianni Versace is gone, Versace still has the same style as before."

With a shrug, Ryan remained silent, he really had nothing to say about fashion.

On the contrary, compared with fashion, Charlize knows more about the development and financial situation of these luxury goods companies because of his involvement.

For example, Versace, since Gianni Versace was shot and killed, has been in poor business conditions. It has suffered losses in recent years. Last year's total turnover was only more than 300 million euros, but it was the income of a moderately invested movie by Disney.

Speaking of which, fashion shows are not too different from the Hollywood film industry.

The four major fashion weeks are released twice a year, from ready-to-wear to haute couture, just like Hollywood's annual commercial blockbusters, attracting enough attention with an audio-visual feast.

The catwalk is like a movie preview. The front row of the show will always be media editors, celebrities, senior executives of big companies and potential buyers. Like film directors, designers are always piecing together inspiration. In fact, it's just to sell two more clothes...

For example, a gold owner like Ryan is definitely a super big customer in their eyes. As long as he is willing, these luxury brands can provide the most thoughtful customized services.

Compared to Charlize who was attentive, Ryan was just watching the fun. In any case, most of those tall models were very seductive, and even saw a Chinese model with black hair, a flat nose and small eye sockets. , the vague memory told him that the supermodel surnamed Lu should have come from the other side of the Pacific Ocean, but this 'beautiful model' praised by the Western media is really difficult to meet his aesthetic.

It should be said that it does not meet the aesthetics of most people in the country on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

Strange to say, many Chinese actresses who can make a name for themselves in the West have this appearance.

For example, Lucy Liu, who played opposite Charlize in "Kill Bill", also has a flat nose, small eye sockets and freckles, but has been praised by many media.

Ryan once asked Charlize, and even Charlize Theron praised Lucy Liu as really beautiful. In her eyes, he was far prettier than the Miss Zhang in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

There are really many such examples. Devon Aoki who appeared later, Versace's royal Japanese model, is also of this type.

"What do you think?"

Seeing that he was in a trance, Charlize leaned over and asked, Ryan simply whispered what he had just thought, and the South African diamond shrugged, "I think it's okay, after the CT jeans are on the market, I still want to find them. As for Miss Lu as an endorsement, don’t you always say that the Chinese market has huge potential? Let’s open a specialty store there.”

"Dear, I'll give you some advice." Ryan couldn't help but have the urge to cover his forehead, and after Charlize made a gesture of please, he said, "You should do your own endorsement, I promise, the effect will definitely exceed that of Lu. Miss."

If there is a meeting point between Eastern and Western aesthetics, it is definitely not in people such as Lucy Liu and Devon Aoki. On the contrary, Charlize Theron and others are more suitable for this condition.

After the show, Ryan and Charlize turned down Versace's party invitations and headed back to the Waldorf Astoria before dinner, where they also had a Time Warner party to celebrate. (To be continued..) ()
