BXBX NOVEL Chapter 407
Rococo? Sharon instantly looked up when she heard these words.
In Natsume’s studio, Sharon had also seen a wedding dress that had been passed down from the era of the Duke of Orléans when he was involved in politics and the era of Louis XVI. According to Sharon’s studies and understanding, the distinguishing feature of Rococo’s clothes was that they were soft and exquisite, reflecting the gentleness of the human body.
Their method of designing allows the clothes to appear gentle and yet complicated. They use a lot of exaggerated styles and gorgeous colors to create a luxurious and romantic visual effect.
These clothes indeed looked a little exaggerated to the modern eye, but they were completely different from the white, gold, pink, and indigo color usually used in Rococo styles. The colors of these clothes were a little dark.
“These few clothes have obviously imitated the shape of nature. These decorations and designs look asymmetrical. Look carefully at these clothes. They are from the Louis XVI era. The emerging bourgeoisie has shown a strong aesthetic interest in satisfying their senses. And these fabric and dye materials are all from that era.”
Upon hearing Henry say a lot of terms that others could not understand, the people in the living room pretended to agree.
Sharon frowned slightly. Why did this “master” look like he was memorizing university textbooks? However, Rococo was indeed a famous product from the Louis XVI era, but it had nothing to do with these clothes.
Looking at the message from Natsume, it confirmed Sharon’s thoughts.
“But why do I feel that this isn’t Rococo?” Sharon’s voice suddenly sounded in the living room. Henry and Gabriel, who were visible to the naked eye, were stunned.
Then, Gabriel quickly shouted, “What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think Elder Sun will lie?”
“That’s right. It’s fine if you cause trouble at home, but we’re in front of outsiders today. You better not spout nonsense.” June quickly stopped Sharon.
“It’s not that I want to criticize you, but you’re too indulgent towards your daughter-in-law. Look at how she embarrassed you on this occasion.”
“I think this Sharon is right. This doesn’t look like Rococo! But I don’t know much about clothes either. This is a rare antique.”
When June heard the discussions of the surrounding people, she instantly felt like she had been slapped in the face by Sharon. She walked towards Sharon, but she didn’t expect Sharon to continue without any fear. “This should be a Baroque design, and this is obviously a male outfit. Baroque is famous for its complicated design and luxurious production, so the male outfit at that time clearly exceeded the boundaries of the male style.”
As she spoke, Sharon picked up a piece of clothing and pointed at the sleeve. “The greatest feature of this kind of clothing design is the lace of the sleeve and the small buckle on the belt here. This is specially placed for the nobles at that time. You can see that the long coat of this piece of clothing doesn’t have a big collar that appeared in the later stages. Instead, it’s a row of gold-inlaid buttons, and all the buttons below are decorative. The padding inside can even make the clothes curl out.”
“Do you mean that these clothes are all Baroque styled and not Rococo?” Gabriel’s body trembled slightly and he broke out in cold sweat, but he still pretended to be calm.
“Isn’t it obvious?” Sharon said lightly.
Xenon looked at Henry’s terrible expression and immediately reprimanded loudly, “He’s a master of antique appreciation. Who do you think you are to disturb the master here? Go back to your room immediately.”
Gabriel looked at Xenon and said, “It seems like everyone doesn’t believe us. In that case, listen to this little girl. We’ll take our leave now! We originally wanted to accept this batch of clothes, but it seems like someone doesn’t welcome us.”
After giving Henry a look, the two of them turned around and were about to leave. Seeing this, Xenon quickly stopped them and kept apologizing.
Unexpectedly, Gabriel seemed to be even more pleased with himself. He looked up at Xenon and said, “I originally wanted to offer six million, but now it seems like you’re not worthy of this money. I want to see who in New York dares to accept your things.”
As they spoke, they were about to leave. Seeing the situation change drastically, June was instantly shocked. “Sharon! It’s all your fault! You useless idiot! Apologize to Master Sun immediately, or you’ll have to pay the six million dollars!”
“Fine, I’ll pay. As long as you don’t regret it after this.” As she spoke, Sharon took out a card and handed it to Xenon.
