Evan Bell knew another photographer named "Mario", Mario Solenti. Thirty-three-year-old Mario Solenti is now a hot photographer in the fashion industry. Evan Bell had a very good cooperation with Mario Solanti at the beginning, and he appeared in the fashion magazine "Gentleman" for the first time. On the cover, it was Mario Solan who took the picture.

However, the "Mario" in front of him is another famous photographer, whose reputation is even louder than that of Mario-Soranti.

Mario Testino, just fifty years old this year, started his career as a legendary photographer in London at the age of twenty-two. In his legendary life, it must be mentioned that he was the last royal photographer of Princess Diana of the United Kingdom, and his life photos for Princess Diana are world-famous. Mario Testino's shots always make it easy to capture the subject at their best and can make the process of filming a real joy. Mario Testino, who always has a detached and indifferent temperament in the lens, is described as a luxury realism style. When evaluating him, fashion industry professionals believe that he presents a very real life, does not deliberately express vulnerability, worry, neuroticism and conflict, this kind of real and bright style can always resonate with people.

In the fashion world, as much as Mario Testino's talent for filming touches the screen, there is also his unruly personality. He once photographed super big names such as Princess Diana and Madonna in the UK, and is also a friend of various big-name designers and fashion magazine editors, because his photography works are the guarantee that clothes and magazines can be sold. But at the same time, he is also known as the terminator of superpower models. Mario Testino was very disgusted by the high prices charged by some first-line and top models for taking pictures, so he refused to let these big-name models appear in his shots, and instead used some young models who had just debuted . Under the lens of Mario Testino, many fledgling models have finally made their way to the top international stage.

This flamboyant personality of Mario Testino also makes his works reveal the clearness that is different from other photographers, which makes people fall in love with them. From this perspective, Mario Testino and Evan Bell are really two people who have a common language.

"So, Evan, how do you think today's photo shoot should be done?" After the greeting, Mario Testino asked Evan Bell for his opinion like a friend chatting. At this point, Mario Testino is different from many photographers, and there are many types of photographers. Some photographers will set the tone by themselves, and then ask the model. Some photographers have an idea, and then Some photographers make adjustments during the shooting process. Some photographers come randomly... Of course, some photographers will communicate with the model like Mario Testino, exchange opinions with each other, and then start shooting. However, there are not many photographers of this type that Evan Bell has encountered.

"If you are asking about my photography skills, I don't have many solutions to offer." Evan Bell is modest, and his photography skills are definitely professional. However, Evan Bell is not wrong, because he does not have much experience in shooting fashion blockbusters, and it is better to let professionals control the rhythm. "If you're asking me what I think about today's clothes, I'm pretty sure."

Evan Bell's honesty also made Mario Testino smile, "'Eleven, the general style of the brand's clothes for next spring and summer has not changed, but Catherine is getting more and more mature, her own style It is also gradually improving. This time, the design is elegant with a bit of sternness, and refined with chicness.”

Mario Testino pondered while holding his chin, "What about the clothes? Why don't we discuss while looking at the clothes, it's more intuitive this way."

Jane Chester had just hung up the phone, and she knew she had been severely reprimanded by Anna Wintour from the look of her slump. However, neither Mario Testino nor Evan Bell had any plans to explore. Mario Testino directly asked Jane Chester to go to the door to see if the clothes for today's filming were arranged.

Mario Testino is naturally very familiar with the "October" men's wear, which is now the dominant fashion player in the fashion industry. He has also seen the catwalk catalogues of the first two seasons. He really admires Catherine Bell's design. Even so, when Mario Testino saw the design of the third season of "Eleven", he couldn't help but sigh, "It's really beautiful."

As a top fashion photographer, Mario Testino has many sources of inspiration. It may be that a model's action may be the tailoring of a certain suit, or it may be a moment when the scene is frozen, but nothing Undoubtedly, Mario Testino must have a keen ability to capture clothing and models, shoot fashion blockbusters of different brands with different highlights, and have enough vision for the clothes of the day. The fashion industry says that Mario Testino is the guarantee of sales of magazines and clothes, because of Mario Testino's keen touch.

For such a level of Mario Testino, the third season of "Eleven" still has endless appeal, "What's the name of this season?"

"The crime victim Evan Bell was standing in front of the hanger, and Eden Hudson and Jane Chester were standing next to the hanger. Eden Hudson didn't stay long, and after confirming that the clothes were in place, He walked into the studio. He had to make sure that the dressing room, makeup artist and other aspects were in place. Now Eden Hudson occasionally makes a cameo as an assistant, and he has done a good job.

Jane Chester was standing beside her, swallowing her saliva. She had also been an intern in "Fashion" for several months. With Anna Wintour, her eyes were naturally broadened. But the clothes in front of her were beyond her imagination: isn't it just a pile of rags? Looking at the clothes on the hanger, all kinds of cloth strips are sparsely hanging down, cut and sewn in a mess, even the most normal clothes don't look anything special. Design speaks for itself. However, looking at Mario Testino's expression, he seemed to see a treasure, which made Jane Chester puzzled.

If Mario Testino knew what Jane Chester was thinking, he would definitely suggest with a smile, "You better change your profession." The clothes of the "Eleven" brand are actually hung on the hanger, and there is no effect. The clothes designed by Catherine Bell must be worn on the body. Whether it is the feeling of wearing it, or the feeling of others looking at the overall shape, it will suddenly be completely new. This kind of effect that one more point is superfluous and one point less is not enough can be explained by simply looking at it.

The reason why Katherine Bell has only designed two seasons of clothes can be so sought after, is because of her sensitivity to the tailoring of clothes, so that countless famous designers can not match. Mario Testino has been rolling around in the fashion industry for nearly 30 years. He knows very well that the core competitiveness of a fashion brand is the shape, the fabric, and the creativity. Of course, creativity is definitely the most important one. link. Because if it is purely about the version and the fabric, men's suits will never be better than the high-end handmade customization of Savile Row, but the suits of Savile Row are very different from the fashion industry.

Catherine Bell was born in Savile Row. The "Eleven" brand also started out by making hand-made custom suits, so when Catherine Bell designed the brand, she has always been praised for her exquisite materials and exquisite patterns. When the first season of the juvenile series appeared, a single version made countless people exclaimed. But Catherine Bell soon realized that in the brand industry, it is impossible to make a breakthrough just by relying on the shape and fabric. Therefore, in the second season of the juvenile gloss series, Kathryn Bell has done a lot to the design. Adjustments, and then with the cooperation of fabrics and tailoring, the whole design concept suddenly became clear, which made the "Eleven" brand instantly popular.

Now Mario-Testino looks at the third season of clothing designed by "Eleven" and has to sigh at the rapid progress of Catherine Bell, she has accurately grasped the core of the brand and fully developed her own characteristics came out.

In fact, it is not difficult to make a set of clothes thin and narrow, but many designers are looking ahead. Shouting "I want to fold" Yamamoto Kansai · but because the drama is too strong, he has never been able to squeeze into the forefront of sales. The Japanese designer Rei Kawakubo and the famous British fashion designer Vivian Westwood have always tried their best to design their clothes to be loose and tattered, but they are always one centimeter away. In the fashion industry, one centimeter determines the difference between the top and the first line, and it is this centimeter that prevents Rei Kawakubo and Vivienne Westwood from becoming Catherine Bell.

"Can't be Catherine Bell", this sentence is very heavy, because it means that Catherine Bell, who has just debuted for a year, has become the top designer has become another designer Benchmarks, including the long-established Kawakubo Rei, Vivienne Westwood and others have not yet reached this level. Mario Testino heard Karl Lagerfeld say this before

When Karl Lagerfeld said this, Mario Testino scoffed and had a heated argument with Lafayette. However, there was still a period of time before Paris Fashion Week, and Karl Lagerfeld could not cite a better example. After all, the "November" second season's youth glossy series was outstanding, but it was still a long way from the classics. of. Not every designer can cross this line.

Now, when Mario Testino saw the third season of menswear designed by Catherine Bell, he had to admit that Karl Lagerfeld's words were no joke. Although Catherine Bell has only debuted for more than a year, she is indeed a genius. She has so much more inspiration than first-line designers such as Rei Kawakubo and Vivian Westwood. It also made her stand in the circle of top designers.

"Victims of crime? Wow, this is destined to be a season classic," Mario Testino sighed involuntarily.
