Harry Potter’s Morning Light

Chapter 816: The sadness of a city



   Chapter 816 Sorrow in a City

  Miranda has all the qualities of a demon boss.

  She can’t eat fat. When other models carefully calculate calories in order to maintain their figure, she can take Starbucks and doughnuts for breakfast, and she can still wear size 0 clothes after giving birth.

  When the hurricane came and she was trapped in Miami, she called her female assistant and asked the poor girl to find a way to book her a flight to leave.

  Maybe this is due to her incomprehension of the word natural disasters, or the feeling that she has truly become a god. In short, she "rules" the fashion magazine.

  She is very beautiful and fashionable, but Miranda wears clothes not to attract men's attention to the party, and her most disgusting style is girlish.

At the   magazine topic selection meeting, when an editor said that he wanted to shoot a blockbuster film about a group of flowers, Miranda sarcastically said: "Flowers? As the theme of spring? It can't be more creative."

  Style is the image she shows to the world. Miranda stands for elegance and nobility. She doesn't need to cater to anyone, but others should dress according to her instructions.

Many people quit their jobs because they couldn’t stand her, including her husband. She was divorced three times. One of them described her as a sharpened pencil, sharp and fragile, but she can draw the lines of the ready-to-wear with the tip of a pen. And sharp articles, let a designer rise to fame, but also discredited.

Her words are like a "devil's bible", even if Nikolai resents the devil very much, he still agrees with her point of view-costume designers are not godmothers, they live in a billion-scale industry, not suitable for carrying. People with naive dreams.

  She has silver-like white hair, not the blond hair that men generally like.

  Her signature action is to throw her expensive jackets, coats, and windbreakers on the assistant’s desk without mercy.

It is strange that people like her have gained the loyalty of many people. Nicola's "boss" Paul has followed her for more than ten years. There are many magazines and clothing companies who want to poach a corner, but he thinks he can get Miranda. His recognition was hard-won, and he actually abandoned his high salary and continued to stay by the devil's side to do things.

   "I dare to say that he must have Stockholm Syndrome, and he can't live without that demon."

  Monica was still getting dressed in the fitting room, while Pomona made tea at the small coffee table, and Nikolay sat down uninvited and complained to her.

  As if she was a psychologist.

   "She doesn't like the theme of flowers as spring?" Pomona asked, "Then what did she use?"

   "How did I know, I left." Nicholas said angrily, "I don't like that New York City that is full of **** anyway."

   "I can use spring water." She said whimsically, "Spring is here, and the snow and ice melt."

  "Then the flowers bloom, what's the difference?" Nicola asked inexplicably.

  She felt unable to communicate with this person.

   "Parada, it happens to be the abbreviation of the Preparatory School of the Royal Academy of Drama. Do you know what the abbreviation ETT is?" Pomona said.

   "What ETT?" Nicola asked in confusion.

  "Don't care..."

  “Also, it’s Prada. Although I didn’t expect the ‘Chanel Girl’ to have much wisdom, how bad is your spelling? How do you think Prada is the abbreviation of the Royal Academy of Drama?”

   "Oh, God!"

"I know that people like you value inner beauty and look down upon us who retouch their outer lives. But work is not a date. No one will pay attention to your inner beauty. Neither the inner nor the outer is worthless. , Don’t think that you have nothing to do with fashion. Every choice you make is a product of fashion; and all your choices are actually chosen on the basis of choices provided by others. You should respect us.” Nicholas said To.

   "I don't know what to say." She said weakly.

  "Are you not going to try anything else? Your way of wearing a suit looks like the Queen of England."

   "You said I look like an old woman?"

   "Oh, of course not." He said pretentiously.

   "You are so rude!" Pomona exclaimed angrily.

  "Don't be fooled by him!" Monica said in the fitting room, "Don't buy anything he sells you."

  "This is what Hepburn wears."

  "Look, who is Hepburn's image designer? "All your choices are actually chosen on the basis of choices provided by others." Do you think this is right, wise man?"

  Pomona remembered herself who always wore mud witch robes.

  In fact, she was not very popular in aristocratic gatherings before. At first, she thought it was because of Albus.

  Now, she needs to think about it.

"Tonight’s party, if you just experience it like Cinderella, I have nothing to say, but if you really want to do something, you must understand that you have to face their boring provocations, because they It's a customer. People often don't have ignorance because they don't want to understand the culture behind them. Are you willing to admit that you are ignorant of the fashion industry?"

   "Yes." She was unwilling to say it.

   "I know that you are insincere, just like you think that models are beautiful and don't have brains. You have to admit that this is a kind of prejudice." Nicholas said sharply.

   "It's difficult to stay in New York, isn't it?" Pomona asked.

   "It's exhausting." Nicola rolled his eyes helplessly. "I swear I tried my best, but I still can't satisfy her."

   "At least your body is still healthy." Pomona said sympathetically, "Do you know that Zodiac has a sweating problem?"

  It is normal to sweat after exercise and in hot weather. Sweating for no reason means that the body is in sub-health.

   "How can a 20-year-old boy have this problem?" Nikolai asked.

   "It's not Zodiac II, it's the Zodiac from the late sixties and early seventies."

   "I don't know him, I only know the Zodiac in New York." Nicola frowned and said, "How did you get on this road at a young age."

   "It's difficult to stay in New York." Pomona said, "He can't get into college."

  In a big city like New York, it is almost impossible to find a good job without a diploma from a prestigious school.

  Outsiders crowded out the job opportunities of locals. Everyone wants to stay in a good place. When dissatisfaction occurs, there must always be a place to vent.

  Aristotle said that people come to cities to live; people live in cities to live better.

  But she felt that the city was like a maze. There was an invisible Minotaur chasing people. Once a person stopped, it meant one thing. The monster would catch up with him and eat him.

   "I know people call it Modern City, but I think the people there are terrible." Nicholas had to say, "I saw someone stealing tramp shoes."

   "What are they doing stealing shoes?"

  “The streets of that city are full of broken glass. Some people think it’s fun to watch people get hurt. You can’t imagine how terrible things people can do to people, so I left the fashion industry and did this.”

   "I know." Pomona said, "I know a group of people who like to torture people."

"Who?"

   "Death Eaters."

   "What?" Nikolai asked in confusion.

  They just like to torture Muggles, they find it so funny.

  She meditated in her heart, and after a sip of tea, she said, “Emotion is a gift given to mankind by the ancestors of human animals, while cruelty is a gift given to yourself by mankind. It’s good if you can’t adapt to going home.

   "There is a kind of kidney shaver. Someone found that after waking up, lying in a pool filled with ice in a hotel, their kidneys had been removed and sent to the black market for trading. It is really incredible."

   "Protestants have always had no sense of sin." Pomona said helplessly.

  They will only struggle to survive, and will not confess, because the confession pavilion in the church has been demolished. This requires a psychologist to listen to their own thoughts.

  "Are you a Protestant?" Nikolai asked.

   "This is privacy, but I tell you, I am not, I believe in other things."

  Nikolai did not ask, he took a sip of tea in silence, and then said.

   "You can go to Cannaregio's theater later. I think where he might be watching the rehearsal today. With his recommendation, you will be much better tonight."

"Who?"

   "François Pinault, he invited an Egyptian art troupe to perform at the Palais de Gracia."

   "I remember that the Palais de Gracia is not in Carregio."

   "Oh, Carregio is now an experimental site. Have you ever heard the American cellist perform Kyrgyz music?"

   "Seriously, I haven't heard of it."

   "You heard it now. Take my business card and say that I asked you to come so that you can get in from the backstage." Nicholas said.

   "You want us to give you a costume again, don't you?" Monica said as she opened the curtain and walked out.

  It is not a tutu skirt worn by Cinderella. It has retro elements, but it is simple and stylish, with a black background and red wild roses, just like Monica's black hair and red lips.

   is not a sweet little princess, nor an elegant and cold queen, but a little punk rebellious, beautiful and cool.

   "Vivienne Westwood, good idea." Nicholas stood up and said admiringly, "I know you have talent."

  Pomona looked at the clothes on Monica, and indeed thought she might succeed in learning fashion design.

  "Can you change this dress for me?" Pomona took out her dress. It looked retro enough because it was originally an antique.

   "No problem!" Monica said generously.

   "I'm going to open champagne." Nicolas said excitedly, "Let's do something interesting."

  Pomona looked at the "man" in front of her, and smiled helplessly.

  Even if a woman stands in front of him without clothes, he is still thinking about what clothes to wear for her to look good. This is different from Martina's dressing tightly and naked in the eyes of other men.

  Girls shouldn’t be a reason to be a victim of what clothes they wear. Unfortunately, not everyone is Scarlett and has the courage to shoot and kill to protect themselves. In this case, they have to be the likable Melanie.

  That night, Scarlett was wearing a red dress, standing at the door with brilliant light, that dress was like her shirt.

  Melanie is simple and conservative. She is sympathized by everyone, and she is a saint in everyone's eyes.

  But outside the silver screen, the son of a rich man saw through her disguise.

  Melanie is not really tolerant, that's her way of living.

  But Pomona would never choose to be patient like she did. If her husband cheated like Ashley, she would definitely get divorced.

  So, she likes Miranda very much. As long as she has her own business, she can get a divorce without worrying about future survival. This feeling is really cool, and it makes people feel more happy than buying a wardrobe of luxury goods.
