Chapter 1934 McQueen’s Wedding Dress

At twelve o'clock at night, Yang Cheng returned to his home yawning and found that Luo Yue was still awake. He couldn't help asking, "What are you doing?"

"Waiting for you~" Luo Yue put down her phone and sat up from the bed, "Why are you back so late~"

"Don't mention it, I was dragged into playing cards~"

"Oh, win or lose?"

Going to a drugstore in the United States is a kind of entertainment activity, as long as you don't indulge too much, so Luo Yue didn't get angry because of it.

Yang Cheng couldn't laugh or cry, "I didn't win or lose. It's all in vain. It's mainly a group of women. I'm too embarrassed to be cruel~"

"That's right, it doesn't look good even if you win or lose~"

"You should be allowed to go, today is purely for the ladies~"

"I'm not going. A group of rich and idle women just know how to gossip and talk about luxury goods, which is a waste of time~"

"Ha~ my wife is better~"

"Come on, go and wash up quickly. I'll come out and tell you something after washing up~"

Yang Cheng was surprised and responded, "Okay, I'll go and come back soon~"

. . .

After washing, Luo Yue handed over the pad directly, "Let's take a look?"

"What?" Yang Cheng took it and took a look, "Wedding dress?"

Luo Yue smiled happily, "Yes, after working for so long, I even forgot to choose a wedding dress. The wedding is about to happen~"

Yang Cheng slapped his forehead and said quickly, "It's my fault that this happened!"

Luo Yue chuckled, "It's okay, I forgot about it~ Come on, help me find out, which one should I choose?"

Yang Cheng waved his hand, "Whatever you choose, just ask someone to customize it~"

Of course Luo Yue knows that customization is good, but, "Does it come in time?"

"As long as you give enough money, it will definitely come in time~"

"Okay, what do you suggest?"

Yang Cheng hesitated and said,

"I don't understand. What brand of wedding dress is the best now?"

"There is no brand for wedding dresses. If you want to customize it, it mainly depends on which designer you go to~"

"Oh, so which designer is the best?"

Luo Yue looked forward to it, "Women all yearn to wear Alexander McQueen wedding dresses. Have you seen the wedding dress Kate and William wore when they got married? It was designed by Sarah Burton, the design director of Alexander McQueen."

Yang Cheng understood immediately, "I didn't say anything, let's make arrangements. Our mother has to take action on this matter. After all, we are in the fashion industry."

Luo Yue was embarrassed, "Do you still have to trouble mom about this kind of thing?"

"I can find someone to do it myself. In fact, it's all the same. Besides, we're all members of my family. If there's any trouble, don't worry. If you don't mind, then I'll find someone to design it myself~"

Luo Yue still couldn't save her face, "You make up your mind~"

Yang Cheng picked up the pad and glanced at the wedding dresses once designed by McQueen. They were indeed very innovative and not just a pile of diamonds.

Speaking of Alexander McQueen, the genius designer, he is really legendary, otherwise he would not have such a talent.

It's a pity. If he hadn't died, Yang Cheng would have definitely invited him to personally design Luo Yue's wedding dress.

Yes, McQueen is dead. He committed suicide 7 years ago. At that time, his death caused an uproar in the entire fashion world. No one thought that this genius designer would choose to end his life.

Alexander McQueen grew up in a slum with a long history - the feared Jack the Ripper who specialized in killing roadside prostitutes committed crimes in that area. His father was a Scottish immigrant who made a living by driving a taxi. , the family lived in a low-cost house donated by the government to the poor. Those rough and wild men who spoke dirty words, drank beer, and laughed loudly with the street warblers were the mainstream in the East End of London at that time. McQueen's father, brother, and brothers-in-law He is the kind of person who can chase and beat his wife at home after just a few cups of yellow soup.

To put it simply, he was born and raised in a neighborhood that values ​​"violence". He spoke with the accent of the slums until his death, and was marked as an East Ender throughout his life.

He died suddenly. Unable to accept his mother's death and unable to attend his mother's funeral, he committed suicide the day before the funeral.

After his death, a retrospective exhibition of his works became the most successful exhibition in the world at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the United States. Another exhibition that received such warm welcome was the Van Gogh exhibition. People praised him as a genius in the fashion industry in Britain and the world. He spoke out loud at that time. His public swearing and swearing were tolerated and became a symbol of genius' informality.

Later, McQueen's will was publicly executed, and he left a total of 16 million pounds of property, as well as a detailed description of property donation.

His three English bulldogs received a total of £50,000 in life funds to ensure that they will be healthy and happy until the end of their lives.

The two domestic helpers who took care of his house were each worth £50,000. McQueen said in his will that he hoped to express his gratitude for their loyal service over the years.

He donated 10,000 pounds each to four charities, namely: AIDS Protection Agency, Dog and Cat Protection Association, Small Animal Hospice Association, and Buddhist Association.

All the remaining money was left to a charitable foundation he founded. McQueen specifically stated in his will: Please take special care of graduates from the clothing department of his alma mater, St. Martin's. This foundation is called Sarabande, named after his spring 2007 The name of Xia’s women’s clothing show.

He was a legend during his lifetime, and even after he passed away, people will never forget his name.

Anyone who knows something about McQueen’s experience is familiar with it.

At the age of 25, he returned to London and became a postgraduate student in women's clothing at Saint Martin's.

At the age of 27, he went to Paris and became a designer for Givenchy;

At the age of 31, he returned to London, switched jobs, and focused on his own brand design;

40 years old, suicide!

But that’s not all McQueen has to offer!

McQueen is the youngest child in the family, with three sisters and two brothers.

His father, Ronald, is a taxi driver and his mother, Joyce, is an elementary school teacher.

Their extended family lives in low-rent housing, which is similar to the "public housing" in Xiangjiang. It is a very low-rent relief housing provided by the government for homeless and low-income people.

After becoming famous, when someone curiously asked him why he always talked about his mother but rarely about his father, McQueen said: I can't forget the scene where my sisters were beaten.

When he was a child, he liked to drink tea with his mother, play with his sisters, and go to his aunt's house to watch TV. His aunt liked Hitchcock's movies, and he watched them over and over again.

Later, the best-selling IT bag he designed called Novak was inspired by Hitchcock's movie "Vertigo".
