Porcelain is a life, from kneading mud to burning, experienced dozens of processes, after a series of drawing, focusing on the magical and beautiful vitality and creativity.

Designer Lu Kun this season tells about the amazing course of "porcelain," which starts with the color of the original porcelain clay. The designer chooses the cream color to restore the saturated luster and smoothness on the fabric color, which is also the origin of life.

From kneading out the full earth fragrance, enter the green body, sprout the contour line with beauty, then change to the fabric color to the deep grey system, begin to absorb the temperature from the process of billet and billet, and polish the round aesthetics, as if another wonderful soul accepts the dip glaze.

Interviewer: please share with us the inspiration and theme of this season.

Lu Kun: the theme of this season is "porcelain."

2016 spring and summer series I designed many blue and white clothes, but unlike before, the blue and white porcelain before you may all be dragon, printing and so on.

At that time, I thought a lot about "porcelain", and I had thought about whether to do the familiar blue and white porcelain printing step by step. Then I felt that I didn't want to do so.

I removed the two characters of blue and white, and blue became blue. "Flower" became the white on my dress.

This season's work contains many lace, lace itself is a very interesting fabric, it has a gorgeous pattern itself, we specially dyed it Klein blue, the color is very saturated, looks very cool in summer.

At the same time, the brightness of Klein blue is very close to the color of blue and white, and then it will appear more laziness on cutting.

I still hope that through the likeness of God, I will not only feel like blue and white porcelain, but blue and white porcelain is priceless.

Interviewer: it is said that clothes also pick people. What kind of characteristics do you expect girls who wear mikumkum clothes have?

Lu Kun: I think mikumkum girls are priceless in my mind.

We are a brand that is rooted in Shanghai. I hope to pass on the spirit of Shanghai through clothing.

Our brand is located in urban celebrities, from green to elegant and elegant. It is as sweet and lovely as a girl. It is more intelligent and more like a big woman. It is more young and personalized. Girls who want to wear mikumkum clothes are more modern. They can emit the feeling of youthful spirit and amorous feelings from inside to outside.

Reporter: is a wedding dress series a new wedding gift for your good friend Tong Jie Jie?

Lu Kun: behind a wedding dress series is because I have seen some traditional Chinese cultural works, such as Dehua porcelain (commonly used to do the statue of Avalokitesvara), that kind of white is very beautiful; and the lace itself is also white, these two combinations can show the innocence of the girl.

Because my good friend, Tong Chen Jie, is very close. I also want to send her a special blessing, so the wedding dress series is a blessing and surprise for her.

At the end of the show, it brings a sense of collective appearance of the bride in a veil, and is also a symbol of wishing them a long life together.

Reporter: after taking part in the reality show "goddess new clothes", more people know you and your work.

What changes did the program bring to you in design?

Lu Kun: through this reality TV show, I learned a lot and made some new friends.

I applied these lessons to my 2016 spring and summer series, and I made my new works younger and more convenient.

It is very easy for new works to do some collocation in daily life.

I also hope you can see my growth and my growth.

White is the rebirth of the green body, and has always been the best interpretation of graceful women.

From the pure white to the painted blank, the hook line, and then to the fine and delicate layers of mixed water, glaze the outside, dig the porcelain bottom, write the bottom, and finish the most luster grinding after firing, a pure color of the soul is carved with the flame of the rebirth of the sky blue.

The designer skips the same color choice, boldly applies Klein blue, shows the contrast conflict between environment and vision, and shows the vitality of porcelain self existence consciousness.

This season's spring and summer fabrics have been inserted into the original inspiration point, with the story of lace. It shows that the "girl of porcelain" is loose, romantic, lovely, feminine and sexy.

The shape of the design tends to be simplified. It shows high quality clean and fashionable, texture and futurism in different proportions. It is beautiful and rigorous, elegant but not exaggerated, practical and not sentimental.
