Chapter 20: The Designs

[POV Master Shi]

Being called by the CEO of the company is no big thing but, the venue sure is intriguing.

I wish to see what it is all about? We moved through a private Villa property, it sure is mesmerizing with the lakes and ponds surrounding the orchards and hills and mountains guarding the property. It is a good place with Dragon Feng Shui.

We entered a building, it is two-storey, the ground floor is completely open space and there on this floor are many mannequins wearing samples.

It is absolutely gorgeous... there are five pieces.

On the extreme left is a knee-length drape style dress with plunging neckline and drop shoulder with petal sleeves, the colour is dark 'Olive green'. It is bold with no mixing of colours. I went close and touched it. It is made up of 'Velvet', purest quality is used and I could not take my eyes off the piece.

I looked to the next piece; it is a western-style Shirt with gathered neckline and bow style collar, there were flaps on its right-hand chest and is sleeveless. It is of a 'tan' colour and made up of 'Polar Fleece'. It is like comfort and high style of workplace fashion.

I reigned in my emotions and went to the next sample, it is a cowl neck with angel sleeve sheath dress; form-fitting short dress and it is in solid 'chestnut marl' colour, the entire piece looked straight off the Runway. This piece was made from 'Flannel'.

The second last piece is a turtleneck 'Ski' form sweater with bracelet-length sleeves and knitted cuffs as well as knitted maple leaves on its bottom border and middle of the chest. The size of the maple leaves varied, bottom leaves were only half an inch in size while the leaves on the chest were two inches in length and breadth. The colour of the sweater is 'Ochre Yellow' on which the maple leaves in 'Chilli Paprika' colour contrast.

Last but not the least, is a 'Tyrolean' jacket made up of 'Tartan'. It is of solid colour of 'Russet' with hand warmers on its side. It is three quarters in its length and the very understatement of this piece; is its highlight.

I am surprised to see the sample collection and finally looked towards Donna. She is equally mesmerized with the samples, if not more.

'Looks like we have a good starting point for this fall collection.'

"Donna, what do you think?" I finally asked her about this collection.

"This collection is already 'Runway' ready. We just need to this together with our work in the Studios and we are done for this fall."

She still had her eyes on the final piece of clothing.

It made sense too, after all, the designer has thought towards the theme, comfort, visual appreciation and quality. It is a whole-some fashion clothing line something that one can straight away were and walk from 'Runway' to any high-class party or official meetings.

It has the potential to be a hit with the masses. The bold colours give the wearer the option to accessorize it however they like according to their personality. They can customise the style of these samples on their own. Which brings me to the question, 'Who is the design into this collection?'

I finally asked Mr Hu.

"Mr Hu the samples are mesmerizing and ready to be put on the ramp. May I ask who the designer behind this is?"

He looked towards this lady at the far corner of the room, I was so engrossed in the sample designs that I failed to notice there were other people in the room.

The girl is in her mid-twenties at best but she has this air around her that makes you believe that she has absolute authority over you and everything else; she is like a beautiful rare flower glowing as well as gliding through the air.

Mr Hu moved towards this lady, together this beautiful lady with the child in her arms looks like a complete family. 'I couldn't put my fingers on what I am missing here?'

"Master Shi, Donna please meet my wife Shui Bai Chang the designer behind these samples." Master Hu finally spoke up.

I'm surprised by the introduction if I remember clearly, I heard that Mr Hu is married but his wife keeps a low profile, are they finally going to become public this year?

I gathered myself and move towards the good lady.

"Hello, Mrs Hu, it is nice to meet you finally."

"Great Sir, please call me Bai Chang, it is my honour to meet you and present my samples in front of you," she replied humbly.

Her voice is like jingling bells.

I think I know why the CEO of the Hu Corporation can keep such a low profile with zero scandals and an honest lifestyle. If you have such a sweet wife at home to come back to everyone would live an honest lifestyle.

"Okay I won't haggle, Bai Chang is this your final work?"

"No Master, there are a few more pieces on the drawing board. I would like to learn under your and Donna's tutelage and work with you in the fashion house, that is, if you take me and do not feel bothered," she replied with that naive smile.

"No child, it is our honour to see your work and you will help us to get inspirations."

"Thank you for your appreciation."

'I like her temperament; it is neither too haughty nor too humble.'

"Mr Hu, when would she join us in the studios?" I inquired.

"Master, if you do not mind can she work from here. This is her warehouse with all amenities in it; when the sample would go through production process she would come to the studio please, do not take offence she is of weak constitution and just recovered from an illness. I wasn't aware of her work, otherwise, I would have advised her for more rest."

"No problem we can work from this place as it is full of inspiration, so we can do the initial drawings and sample making here. Donna, what do you think?" I asked her.

She had been absent-minded for quite some time now; finally, she spoke up "Bai Chang would you like to be a model for me. I find you to be my muse."

There is a brief silence in the room as it is a serious matter for someone to be a 'muse'. Mr Hu looked toward the lady by her side apparently she decides.

"I won't be walking runways for you but outside the stage, you can approach me. Please do not take offence it is true I am still recovering from major health conditions."

"No problem, I am cool with that, Mr Qiang, what do you say? Say Yes." She demanded.

It is quite a joy to see the birth of a new generation of star level fashion designer I thought to myself.
