Chapter 331
“I think that it would be better if you add elements of your own style. You can get inspiration from nature, but you need to have more of your own ideas. You’re smart, and you have a unique flair. If you add an Easton touch to a Weston–style piece, there will be a strong clash of thoughts,” Kevin said.
He had accepted my opinions well, which surprised me. However, I knew that what he had said wouldn’t be easy.
I hadn’t noticed that a camera nearby had taken a photo of the two of us together.
In the half an hour that I had spent with Kevin, I had realized something completely new. It felt like he was a person that the gods had sent to teach me.
Not only did I now understand the kind of knowledge that could not be found in classes, he had also made me feel the beauty in fashion design.
As a fashion designer, I felt honored to be able to design pieces that everyone liked, and he had also taught me about how to design pieces that I could be satisfied with.
“I’m very happy to meet you. Although it’s the first time we’ve met, I feel that I’ve gained a lot.” I felt lucky to have met him at this time and to be able to have such an in–depth interaction with him.
Kevin only smiled. He picked up another pen and wrote down a string of numbers. “I’m sure that you need friends with the same interests and values as you. I hope that we can continue to progress together, so let’s exchange our contact numbers.”
He was giving me the freedom to decide. If I wanted to get to know him, I would have to add his contact number. If I didn’t want to, I could just treat this as a chance meeting.
I just smiled. It was getting late, so I took the sketch and said goodbye to him happily before leaving.
Perhaps I had left too abruptly, as he seemed rather surprised. However, he just watched me walk away without saying anything.
When I got back to my dorm, I spread out the sketch eagerly on the table and looked closely at every detail of the design.
Gabrielle walked over, and when she saw the design draft on my desk, there was a flash of surprise in her eyes. “Oh my! I can’t believe that you brought back a design draft that has such creative strength after just having a chat with him! You’re a genius.”
Gabrielle showered me with compliments, but I felt even more conflicted. I knew that I didn’t have enough talent, which was why I had to study more and make up for my inadequacies.
