New Faces Of China In International Costume Competition

A few days ago, Liu Bin, a student of the 2011 grade clothing department of Huizhou University, won the first place in the Chinese competition area of the international costume and fabric design competition by virtue of his work "Oriental charm" and represented China in the finals of the first S D C (International Costume and its fabric design competition) held in Mumbai by the Royal coloring Association. This is the first time that the students of the Department of clothing at Huizhou University have stepped onto the international stage. On this road to the international stage of clothing, Liu Bin has been making countless sleepless nights.

　　 Regret is missed by the gold medal.

"We must learn English well." This is Liu Bin's greatest feeling about participating in this international competition.

For this competition, Liu Bin, who claimed to have never seen English, forced himself to learn English hard, but there were still many problems in communication.

"I often communicate with two players from Hongkong and Singapore, because only they can speak Chinese. Because of my poor English, I didn't have much contact with the other 8 players. Liu Bin said helplessly.

There is an interview session in the finals, which requires players to express in English. Design concept No translation is allowed. In order to fully explain his design concept to the judges, Liu Bin has been reciting words on the eve of the finals. "When I see the English sentences that I don't understand in the speech, I'll look up the dictionary in my cell phone and put it in my notebook. The teacher was asleep. I was still reciting my words and I didn't know when I went to sleep before I knew it. Because I am afraid of being late, I woke up early on the second day and continued to recite my words.

However, when he entered the interview room, he was so nervous that his words were completely forgotten. In the end, he could only explain the design concept to the judges by gesture, which was rather gloomy than that of the referee. But when he took out his clothes, the judges were all on the bright side, and even said a few words "O h m y God! Beautiful!"

When he learned that the champion was an Irish athlete, and the remaining 10 people, including him, were all the finalists in the award, Liu Bin felt very sorry. "Other aspects are not bad, but it is a pity that I can not speak English well, so that the judges can understand my design idea well, so that I can not win the gold medal."

　　 Making entries is time-consuming and laborious.

The theme of the competition is "the future of fashion", and the inspiration of my oriental charm comes from bridges. A bridge represents a country, and the future of the world is like a bridge. Loose coat The black pimp is like that bridge. " Liu Bin introduced that his entries were two pieces: the inside was a white sling skirt with hot drills and embroidery, and a black and white leather jacket was outside. Clothing not only shows Chinese characteristics, but also reflects the desire for world peace.

Liu Bin's design gave the judges a glimmer, but the glint on his clothes made Liu Bin suffer. "I drill them all by myself. A hot drill is just a few millimeters. I need to clamp them with a pair of pliers. Every sticky one, I need to press it for a few seconds with a pair of pliers. Just for sticky hot drilling, I was busy from 1 p.m. to 10 p.m., and even forgot to eat. The hands have been pliers and feel paralyzed and distended. " And embroidery is Liu Bin running alone to Guangzhou to find factories to make customized, busy until 11 o'clock in the evening, and hurriedly catch the last subway, back to the hotel is two or three o'clock in the morning.

"The cost of making a finished garment is very high, and the cost of my two garments is nearly 6000 yuan." Counting the cost of living and eating, the competition has spent more than 10 thousand yuan, but Liu Bin thought it was worth it. "I feel that I learned much more than 10 thousand yuan. And such opportunities are rare. "

"No talent, only continuous efforts."

Liu Bin, who is the first student to attend the international competition in Huizhou University, feels that he is not "talented" but because he has always been "diligent".

"Seriously doing what you like, learning and honing constantly, the effect will certainly be 100 times stronger." Liu Bin said that in other people's eyes, he was the child who was considered "not admitted to university", but also did not know what his dream and goals were. Only because he had followed the enlightening teacher in his childhood - the brother who opened the studio had learned sketching, so when he faced division, he chose an art major that he was slightly interested in.

Liu Bin's major was in his freshman year. Spin Professional, and later found himself more interested in clothes, so he made up his mind to change his major when he was sophomore. "At that time, there were still a few classmates who wanted to turn, but in the end, only I persevered and succeeded." He expressed his great love for the current profession. He did not join the society nor did he work part-time. He devoted himself to his studies and often fell asleep. "Sometimes I didn't get good grades when I took part in some competitions. I would constantly reflect on where I was not enough, and then I couldn't sleep all night."

"Diligent, hardworking, very serious!" this is Liu Bin in the eyes of Xiao Wu in the same dormitory.

In the future, Liu Bin hopes to create his own studio and brand with a group of like-minded friends, and also hope to go abroad for further education. "Whether I am 30 or 40, I will go out to see the world." Liu Bin said.
