Superstar

Chapter 51: Despised

   Hugo is serious.

In the early 1990s, men’s suits paid more attention to fabrics and overall feel. Even the most traditional custom suits were tailored to suit each man’s different circumstances. They also left some space for the clothes instead of tailoring them. That was the fashion trend of the time. If you come here wearing a suit that focused on your figure and line in 2014, a group of people will probably call it old-fashioned and ignorant of trends.

In fact, it’s not just suits, but clothes in the 21st century are all about fit—not tight-fitting, they conceal the shortcomings of the figure, highlight the advantages, and boldly and directly present the beauty of body lines, including T-shirts, shirts, jeans, jackets, etc. So it is.

Therefore, when Hugo puts on this suit, he really feels like he is wearing a bucket on him, which reminds people of the appearance of a child stealing his father’s suit. The thick shoulder pads, the straight waistline, and the looseness. The bottom hem really makes people laugh.

"It's definitely not like this." After being shocked by Hugo's words, the clerk hurried forward and explained. She gestured to Hugo slightly, and then measured Hugo's broad shoulders with both hands, "Look, here The line is very fit, fully showing your shoulder line. Of course, if you don’t like it, you can reduce the shoulder pads. "Nowadays suits must have shoulder pads, and that kind of youthful casual suits without shoulder pads are not Popularity, people are more willing to choose jackets or leather jackets than suits without shoulder pads.

Then the clerk followed the line on Hugo's back and smoothed it down, "If you button up the button on the shoulder line, the waist line can be revealed, revealing the shape of the inverted triangle." There are also suits now. The waistline, especially the French version of the design, always has an endless pursuit of the waistline, but because the hem is too long, the waistline is not prominent and always looks a little bloated.

   Hugo watched the clerk explaining there in detail, and raised his eyebrows lightly. He felt that his aesthetic point of view was still incompatible with this place, but what could be done? It is 1992, and the customs here are like this, he must get used to it. But Hugo has always believed in one sentence: Clothes are dead and people are alive. The same piece of clothing can show different styles on different people, which is actually the reason.

Hugo felt that the suit on his body was still slightly bloated, and the effect was not satisfactory, so he shifted his sight from the full-length mirror in front of him, and then continued to take a step inside Armani’s shop, he thought See if there are other styles.

Although men’s suits seem to be similar on the surface, in fact suits are very particular styles. A suit has countless details from the shoulder line to the collar, from the sleeve to the button, from the shape to the material, and it is made in any place. Changes can make the suit reflect different sophistication through details. Especially customized suits are even more demanding.

   Hugo simply looks at it with his eyes, and it’s actually hard to tell the difference, but he mainly starts to look at the line cut from the shoulder line to the waist line to the hem, hoping to find a more satisfactory version.

   It took a while. Hugo saw a black suit on the far right of the hanger. It was also black, but the tailoring of this suit was obviously better. The shoulder line is more retro, with the style of the 1920s, the design of the three buttons is too formal, but the width of the waist part is obviously reduced, and the hem has a beautiful arc, you can imagine, The effect should be very good after putting it on, reminding Hugo of the look of Leonardo in "The Great Gatsby" released in 2013.

   "I want to try this set." Hugo looked back at the clerk and said with a smile.

Joseph also followed Hugo at this time and saw the suit. He took the clothes off the shelf and looked up and down. Finally, he shook his head, "I didn't see any difference." Joseph was really slow in this regard.

In fact, Hugo doesn’t know much, he just chooses based on his long-term aesthetics and intuition. “I don’t know what the difference is. Anyway, I’ll see if I put it on.” Hugo laughed and turned to the clerk. Speaking of, "Couldn't this suit have the same design as my clothes?" If this is the case, it would be embarrassing.

The expression on the clerk’s face was a bit hesitant, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was stiff. There seemed to be something unspeakable, but she still seriously explained, “No, these two sets are not the same design. The one in your hand, the shoulder line and waist The cut of the line and hem will be more rounded, and this set is a three-piece set with a vest inside, and the overall retro effect will be more prominent. But..."

Hugo did not hear the clerk's "but", and turned around and said to Joseph, "Would it be too exaggerated to wear a three-piece suit at the premiere?" Generally speaking, three pieces were used in the award ceremony. The set is more suitable. It is only the premiere, and it is not the premiere of Hugo's own work, so it seems a little overkill.

Joseph didn’t think too much, “Try it first, and talk about it after seeing the effect.” Anyway, today I’m here to make soft investments. If the effect is really good, then even if it’s not for the premiere, for the future. Some formal occasions for auditions or meetings with senior people also need to purchase some formal clothing.

"Sir, sir..." The clerk tried to interrupt the conversation between Joseph and Hugo with a polite voice. Finally she attracted the attention of both people, but the embarrassment on her face became more and more obvious, "Sir, this set The clothes are no longer in stock."

   "Then which set I have...?" Hugo thinks this kind of thing is too ridiculous. All the clothes in the Armani store are sold out? This kind of thing can be said to be incredible. If a set of clothes is sold out of size, Armani will definitely put this style of clothes away in preparation for the seasonal promotion at that time. But now it's only halfway through March, there is still a long time before summer, and spring has just begun, so the clerk actually said that the clothes are out of stock, which is naturally unbelievable.

Joseph, who was standing next to him, also looked confused. When he looked at the clerk, the clerk was immediately embarrassed. He was a little at a loss and seemed to be thinking about how to respond to Hugo’s question. "This, this is The last set in the store now does not have your size." The clerk considered it for a long time, and finally chose this way to answer.

The situation here was naturally reported up immediately, and the person in charge of Armani’s branch immediately walked over, “Good afternoon, gentlemen, this is Frank Garner. Is there anything I can do for you?” This person named Frank is obviously more than one level higher than the clerk just now. The gentle smile on his face looks very kind, but it does not make people think that it is deliberately involved in relationships, and the sincere and cooperating hands in his eyes And Wei Wei's leaning forward body shows his sincerity, and it is easy to dispel others' sense of rejection.

   "I want to try this suit, but I was told that it is out of stock." Hugo was a little bit distracted, and went out shopping happily, but it was not necessary to make trouble. In fact, Hugo is not indispensable to this suit, but the clerk's reason is so ridiculous that he can't accept it. Therefore, in the face of Frank's smile, Hugo was not aggressive, but calmly stated the facts and expressed his helplessness, nothing more.

Frank stretched out his hands and cast questioning eyes. Hugo passed the clothes in his hands. Frank opened the label of the clothes and looked at it, then nodded slightly, "Mr. Lancaster. , The thing is like this, this set of clothes is our new spring product, naturally there is still stock."

This sentence immediately caused Hugo and Joseph to look at the clerk at the same time. Hugo was okay. He was just wondering why the clerk was suddenly lying, but Joseph's sharp eyes made the clerk move away in panic. Look in the eyes.

"But we won't sell this suit again today." Although Frank's words were very polite and apologetic, the content of this sentence still made both Hugo and Joseph cast a surprised look. "Because Mr. Richard Gere has ordered this suit, he will wear it to attend the movie premiere. In order to avoid the situation of zipping shirts, we will not sell this suit for the time being. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com If you are really satisfied, we can deliver it to you next Monday."

   Hugo and Joseph looked at each other. This is actually a special service customized by top brands for celebrities, mainly to highlight the uniqueness of artists. Logically, after Richard Gere ordered the suit, the clerk should put the suit away and hang it out after the premiere. But today I don’t know which link went wrong, and the suit is still there. After being left on the shelf and being taken by Hugo, the situation now appears.

   "Uh... can't you even try?" Joseph coughed slightly and asked politely. He didn't want Hugo and Richard at the premiere. That would be bad, but he still felt a little embarrassed, so he asked, and finally got Frank's embarrassed smile. Joseph hesitated and went on to say, "I think this suit will work better on Hugo. Why can't Hugo wear this suit to attend the premiere?"

"We still trust Richard more." Frank still had a polite smile on his face, but at this time the smile seemed a bit ironic, as if to say: What kind of green onion are you Hugo Lancaster, how could it be possible? Compared to Richard Gere? Even if you are a hanger, you look good in clothes, but in real life, the skin is not the most important thing. Compared to Richard, Hugo is not a bit inferior.

Without waiting for Joseph’s response, Frank went on to say, “Please cooperate with our work. Here, I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.” This seems to be saying: Don’t be entangled anymore, be conscious. One point is better.

   Obviously, Hugo and Joseph were despised together.
