The Most Beautiful Man In The City Is A Scissors And A Piece Of Cloth.

Speaking of costume customization, many people come up with the pronoun of high-end luxury, beautiful style, high price and so on. As we all know, in Keqiao, clothing customization for the mass market has been quietly rising. For this reason, the reporter visited the textile retail area on the third floor of the international fabric purchasing center of China Textile City, and went to see how the custom tailor master used exquisite skills to make "clothing customization" popular in Keqiao.

After walking out of the elevator, the reporter found that at the door of the "smart tailor" on the third floor of the four area, there was just a custom tailor on the cutting table. She saw the prototype of her dress in a smooth and shiny fabric with her picture powder in one hand and a market ruler in one hand.

Huang Xinlan, a Hubei fashion designer, is 46 years old and has been engaged in garment customization in Keqiao for 24 years.

Huang Xinlan told reporters that her mother, who was a tailor, was deeply interested in the clothing industry. When she came to Keqiao from her hometown in 1996, she went to the garment factory to work, proofing, cutting, sewing, plate making and testing. What to do, with the love of clothing and the nature of hard work, skills are growing. This has laid a solid foundation for her later career. After leaving the garment factory, she embarked on the road of dress customization. The first store was not in the market, but in a town near home. But because they often go to market to find fabrics, and become more familiar with the market, they simply take root in the market.

Huang Xinlan's shop is full of fancy and colorful high-end clothing. According to her introduction, most of the shops are custom-made garments, and some customers have already placed the order before they get the goods. The rest are some sample clothes for customers to choose. Huang Xinlan is busy with material selection, design, cutting, sewing and ironing every day, so he has to lengthen the custom-made cycle on the list. According to her, at present, it takes about 20 days to customize an ordinary garment. If the style and workmanship are higher, it will take at least one month.

"Custom-made clothes made by previous customers are simple and can be cut directly after being measured. Nowadays, more pursuit of individuation and fashion is relatively complicated, and we need to plate and tailor first, which takes some time. According to Huang Xinlan, her customers are mainly female consumer groups, so they will pay more attention to the fashion trend in the selection and design. Most of the customers who come to the store are more interested in the fashion effect. "I will design customers' fashion and dress effects according to their hair styles, skin color, shape, temperament and occupation, and wear occasions, and give pertinent suggestions and suggestions." Huang Xinlan added.

"Madam, will you look at my fabric for a dress or a suit?" Just now, an old customer came to make clothes. Huang Xinlan immediately put down his work and communicated with customers. After identifying the design style, the old customer told reporters satisfactorily that she knew Huang Xinlan at the Hangzhou Tower. In the past 5 years, she has been making custom clothes from her winter dress to summer wear. Since Huang Xinlan moved back to the western market (now known as China Textile City's international fabric sourcing center), she also came here and found that the fabric of today's market is of high quality and variety, even more than before.

In March this year, China Textile City International fabric sourcing center (formerly China Light Textile City West Market) welcomed the Phoenix Nirvana regeneration after upgrading. Before the demolition and the development of custom tailor, all of them came back. "Almost all of them came back, except for individuals who no longer do this." From Huang Xinlan's words, reporters feel that the return of these custom tailor masters is not only because of the high popularity of the market, the excellent location, the complete planning of facilities, the new and beautiful environment, and so on.

With the development of the times, more and more people are inclined to a fashionable and sophisticated way of life. This also promotes the evolution of China's textile city to "open, fashion, intelligence and high-end". "The fabric used in the market is neither visual nor hand feel, but it is not as good as the present material. Some customers' fabrics are even purchased from abroad. Now they are different. The market can find satisfactory patterns and textures at random. This also allows our clothing customization from civilian to high-end. " Just as Huang Xinlan said, the market and the merchants have a common and common prosperity. Only through the two-way promotion of Commerce and trade and market promotion, can we push the Textile City forward effectively.

Like Huang Xinlan, a simple, diligent, professional and dedicated garment tailor, there are many others in spinning City. They used innovation and persistence to pay for the rise and growth of China's textile city. The global textile network report team will use the lens to retain these most beautiful city people's years, write down their stories in words, and let the spirit of "spinning City People" get the best interpretation and continuity.
