On the 29th, after Zhao Feiyan finished his farm work, she began to cut her clothes in preparation for the upcoming "mud" theme catwalk.
Zhao Feiyan is a young man with a "dream" in Weining Yi Hui and Miao Autonomous County, Bijie City, Guizhou Province. Dressed in clothes designed, tailored and matched with bright colors, Zhao Feiyan confidently and calmly "walked the show" in the fields. Zhao Feiyan did not expect to become an "net celebrity". Her video attracted widespread attention on social platforms as soon as it was released.
Zhao Feiyan said: "Every plant in my hometown is the source of my creation."
I became attached to the runway because of a joke made by my college classmates "You are a bit like a supermodel Lu Yan." This is the first time that Zhao Feiyan has come across the term supermodel. From ignorance to liking, Zhao Feiyan took a short time to complete the transformation, "like it to the extent that I want to watch it every day", and even had the dream of "being a model and going to the catwalk".
After graduating from Guizhou City Vocational College in 2019 with a major in dance, Zhao Feiyan has done a lot of work, but she can't forget her dream. At the beginning of 2020, Zhao Feiyan chose to stay at home temporarily because of taking care of his elderly grandfather and grandmother.
The beauty of the hometown triggered Zhao Feiyan’s memories: the beauty of walking home from school when he was a child, “Walking on a country road in spring, the scene is really beautiful.”
"It would be great if I could blend in with these scenery!" A bold idea appeared in Zhao Feiyan's mind. She called on her cousin, and started her own country catwalk experiment with a second-hand camera and full of fashion ideas. Without clothing, Zhao Feiyan sews by herself; without professional lighting, she tries to make up for the places that cannot be illuminated by the sun with a flashlight; without a filming team, when the reflector is used for the first time, she pulls her grandma as a "lighter" ".
"For example, I photographed a blue dress. It was the blue salt water bottle that I saw when I accompanied my mother to the hospital that day. The inspiration came at that time." Zhao Feiyan was out of control since then. The tractor at home, the sunflowers on the roadside, The rice ears in the field, the discarded chemical fertilizer packaging bags... these familiar things and scenes from small to large have brought her creative inspiration. "Four seasons are clothes, everything is make-up." She wrote this sentence in the introduction of the social platform.
Cheng Dan is a junior high school classmate of Zhao Feiyan. When she first saw Zhao Feiyan's catwalk video on the short video platform, she exclaimed "unbelievable". In Cheng Dan's memory, Zhao Feiyan was a girl who was "tall, very quiet, and very introverted". In the video, Zhao Feiyan seemed confident and generous to walk down the country road. "High-level sense", "international style" and "supermodel face" have become the most frequent words in the comment section of social platforms.
Zhao Feiyan said frankly that she is not good at words, has few friends, and rarely communicates with her parents. "This kind of character is just complementary to my work. The catwalk gives me the opportunity to express my character and my understanding and feelings of life."
On the social platform, the fans went from 0 to over 270,000, and it took Zhao Feiyan only 3 months. Regarding the sudden heat, Zhao Feiyan said bluntly, "I didn't feel that I was hot."
Zhao Feiyan said that she is still far away from real fashion. She hopes to be able to walk a real runway under the spotlight, "If one day I stand on the stage, I hope to take the strength that my hometown gives me, go out bravely, and pass on the beauty of my hometown to more people." (End) )
