The aesthetic standards of the fashion industry are actually similar to those of most film and television cultural products.
It should be both high-brow and approachable.
However, this is only applicable to the entire industry. If it comes to a specific individual, then naturally there will be preferences in aesthetic concepts.
The designer behind Camilla obviously belongs to the former, and is the kind who is complacent about his own eccentricity.
Such people are not uncommon, but they have never become mainstream.
Although they always think they are the mainstream, few people will listen to their opinions.
At this time, most of the audience's attention had been attracted by the performance on the catwalk.
When the first Iron Man theme ended, the archway at the exit dimmed.
At the same time, soothing music sounded in the venue. It was obvious that the style of the next unit was completely different from the heavy metal rock style of the first unit, "Iron Man".
However, no matter how the stage style changed, everyone in the venue had a strong anticipation for the next theme.
In this expectation, the next two themes are Victoria's Secret's own units.
One is a "city girl" with a soft and sweet style, and the other is a "night elf" with a sexy and enchanting style.
The quality of both units is very high and the underwear styles are very good.
But in the eyes of the audience, these two parts are not much different from previous Victoria's Secret shows.
It is far less amazing than the first unit.
After two consecutive themes, Camilla couldn't help but say to Paris beside her: "It seems that the most exciting part is really over."
Paris just smiled.
Although in his heart he did feel that these two units were not as exciting as the first one.
But considering that some of the underwear were very much in line with his personal aesthetic, he did not comment.
[It shouldn't end like this, right? ]
Paris felt that Nanaya Kiryu should be able to bring even bigger surprises to the audience.
Perhaps to confirm Paris's inner anticipation, the fourth unit unfolds with a melodious tune.
"This is?"
Many audience members were unfamiliar with this piece of music, and only a small number of them showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
Then the audience who knew the origin of the song began to applaud and cheer.
Because they have already guessed who will appear next.
"It's this song."
Rin immediately recognized the source of the song, and she said a little unhappily: "Nanaya really dotes on that little girl, he actually used this song as the opening song."
Because they rehearsed separately, this was the first time the five members of Madoka Magica knew that Lily would appear.
Luvia also recognized the origin of the song: "It's this song... Isn't it a little sad?"
"Hmm... I really envy Sister Lily. She actually has her own exclusive BGM." Yumi said with envy.
Among the five people, only Yui Aragaki, who had never heard of this song, had a face full of question marks.
"What are you talking about?"
The song playing now is "The End of Dreams", which is the BGM of Artoria.
Compared to "Glory of the Knight King", this song "Dream's End" is slightly less well-known.
This song first appeared in the hidden ending of the PS2 version of the FSN game.
As the most popular Galgame in history, FSN has naturally been well received by players since its launch.
In addition, FSN caught up with the trend of Gal animation and made its first animation in 2006.
The 2006 animated version has some major flaws for some veteran Type-Moon fans or Fate fans, but it has played a very important role in promoting this IP.
After the anime version became a huge hit, Type-Moon launched the PS2 version of FSN in 2007 and invited voice actors from the TV version to dub for it.
Because the PS2 version of FSN is rated for all ages, some discordant plots on the PC version have also been modified.
I don't know whether it is for compensation or to give players who have already played the PC version some motivation to buy the console version.
Therefore, in addition to the voice actor dubbing, FSN also added a hidden ending to the PS2 version.
Because the character of Artoria became very popular after the 2006 TV version, the hidden ending is naturally the epilogue of the Fate line.
The FSN with dubbing and hidden ending played by Chinese players is actually the result of a great god extracting and integrating the voice and additional content of the PS2 version.
The PC version that Nanaya played in his previous life was naturally this one with voice.
Back then, Nanaya thought those CVs had some unspeakable scenes to voice.
And for this reason, Nanaya downloaded the FSN game specifically after having read all the game texts.
As for the result...
Anyway, Nanaya was quite disappointed at that time.
However, he still insisted on completing the game, saw the hidden ending, heard the song "Dream's End", and fell deeply in love with the song.
It's a pity that this song doesn't fit in very well with UBW's story.
So even though Nanaya asked ZUN to restore this song, it was not used in the end.
It was only included in the FSN soundtrack album, and it is a special song that is only included in the deluxe set version of the two movies FSN and UBW.
It is also because of this that not many people know this song.
So when the music started, most of the audience looked confused.
But when Lily appeared on the stage in a white dress, everyone started applauding at the same time.
Lily slowly walked to the center of the stage, then picked up the microphone and began to sing softly.
"Stars...stars..."
A slightly sad song sounded, and Victoria's Secret Angels filed out from the backstage.
In order to match the theme of "The End of the Dream" this time, the underwear they wear are all restrained and elegant in style.
Although some styles look a bit too plain, they are very consistent with the theme of this unit.
Moreover, rather than appreciating the underwear, the audience's attention at this time was more on the music and Lily's singing.
Those models wearing underwear became Lily's exclusive dancers.
It was just a lingerie show, but it almost turned into a concert.
Fortunately, Lily only sang this one song.
When the music of "Dream's End" ended, a relatively cheerful jazz song started playing again.
At this time, the lights in the venue changed again. The original strong lights went out one after another, and dots of golden lights lit up.
Lily reached out and took a bowler hat that flew out from backstage and put it on her head.
Now, the originally elegant aristocratic girl suddenly took on the flavor of a lively girl.
The originally serious atmosphere in the venue became somewhat unreal, luxurious and mysterious, which made the audience think of the decadent era of the United States in the 1920s.
As the sigh-like humming of a female voice gradually sounded, Lily, who already had a bit of the aura of a classical beauty, picked up the microphone and began to dance on the stage.
With the coordination of lighting effects, the stage at this moment creates a dreamlike past dream that makes people intoxicated.
At this time, the models who had just walked off the stage came back up.
They were still wearing the same plain lingerie as before, but the difference was that this time the girls wore pearl accessories, bowler hats and shawls with a strong crystal dress style.
Suddenly the atmosphere of the entire venue became cheerful.
The audience began to clap rhythmically to the beat of the music.
In the control room backstage of the show, Nanaya looked at the picture on the monitor in front of him and shook his head slightly.
In fact, Nanaya didn't want Lily to get so deeply involved in the fashion show.
In his limited memory, there are only two effects when female guests appear on stage at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Either the female guests stole the limelight from the angels, and people complained that it was a special concert;
Or the Victoria's Secret Angels make the guests, who are usually shorter, look like ugly ducklings.
Lily now is obviously the former type.
Lily, who has the nickname "King Arthur", is so eye-catching. Even if the Victoria's Secret models are only wearing underwear, they are still not as beautiful as Lily in a dress.
Nanaya originally only planned to let Lily calm down the show at the end.
But Victoria's Secret refused to give in.
They probably knew that they could only invite Lily once in their lifetime, so they hoped that the beautiful girl with blonde hair and a ponytail would appear as much as possible.
Hence the current situation.
In response to this, Nanaya could only laugh"Hehe".
Since the owner doesn't mind, there's no need for him, an outsider, to worry about it.
Looking at the people on the monitor who were nervously preparing for the final theme, Nanaya picked up his walkie-talkie and connected the headsets of the five-person group.
"Everyone, just relax and perform at your best."
Nanaya encouraged Yumi and the others.
"Okay, big brother!"
"Senior, don't worry~"
"Qianye, do you have a date tonight?"
"Tsk, remember to treat me to a nice dinner after the show."
"Director, let's work hard together~"
Nanaya pretended not to hear any of the strange replies.
After giving a few more words of encouragement in an enthusiastic tone, Nanaya put down the walkie-talkie.
He looked at Shion and Ryougi who were guarding the control room with him, and said with a smile: "This is the last theme, don't you want to go out and take a look?"
Ori, who was reading Nanaya's book about FGO planning, shook his head. He wrote a few words on it with a pen and replied, "No, I'd better finish reading this first."
Ryougi Shiki rubbed his stomach and asked, "Senior, will there be any delicious food at the celebration party later?"
Nanaya rolled his eyes and ignored her, turning his head directly to Shion.
The female boss raised her chin and said with a smile: "No, I prefer to watch you."
Nanaya shrugged helplessly and said nothing more.
At this time, the executive director's voice sounded again on the public channel of the intercom.
Nanaya turned his attention back to the monitor screen. At this time, the most important and crucial "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" segment of this Victoria's Secret Show finally began.
"Ah…ah…ah…"
A soprano voice and a dark style song began to sound. This song was exactly the classic ED "Magia" from Nanaya's previous life's "Puella Magi Madoka Magica".
