The Villainess is Changing Her Role to a BroCon
It's almost rose season.
The next day, Ekaterina boarded a carriage with Alexei and returned to the residence of the Duke of the Royal Capital.
In the vast gardens of the Royal Duke's residence, the roses have already begun to blossom, and several gardeners seem busy taking care of them, even if only on sight. For the day ahead, they're going to adjust the flowering times for each variety so that the day is at its best.
They say there are no breeds in Yurnova's garden, and there are only a number of breeds in Yurnova's garden, and it must be hard to make it full for one day. It is a major event, albeit every year.
As of lunch yesterday, I wanted to hold my head to see what I could do to prepare my costume. When I went back to the dorm and spoke to my maid Mina with half the stupidity, Mina nodded with a faceless look, as usual.
"That's the job of a servant, so I'll arrange it. Just think about what the lady wants to wear."
Oh, yeah, what? Feels like.
But if you calm down and remind me, I had a lot of beautiful dresses made while living in the Duke's mansion for six months after I took them off from solitary confinement, but you didn't even make them yourself. At some point I was just wearing a new dress that was made so I could put it on.
And as far as I can remember... I don't think he looked very good. Which one of these challengers dressed me in a bright yellow dress full of frills or something with blue hair and a grown-up look?
The flow that should have seemed to be, when I needed a dress, servants like maids and butlers would call in and out designers, tell that designer from me what kind of dress they wanted, and order it if they liked it when they saw the design painting, etc.
And Mina went out for a bit after she served for dinner and attached an appointment to a popular designer in the Imperial Capital. They're coming to the Duke's Mansion tomorrow.
Wouldn't it be great to be able to get the next day's appointment the night before? The fact that our beautiful maid is too competent.
Well, maybe he's a duke of Yurnova's house glory.
That's why I'm meeting with the designer quickly. The designer was a skinny woman who intricately tied up her up-and-coming, green-silver hair that had just turned into her thirties: Camilla Croce.
I was surprised when I suggested I sit in a chair, so should the Duke's Lady set up a designer to meet? And I got anxious, but I'm not comfortable with this one. Recommend on top of each other, pinch the table and face each other.
Camilla felt relieved when she told her that it was a costume to welcome the royal family to her house and that she wanted it to be a simple design to the extent that it would not be disrespectful.
"If it was the beauty of the lady, the simplicity would rather make it stand out. The fashion today is the design that brings the beauty of the fabric to life, so it's perfect for your wishes. We have a wonderful sample of fabric that looks great on your daughter. This is the highest quality silk textile, taken from the end of the east. I'm sure you'll like it."
"That's it. Actually, I have some fabrics I'd like to use."
When I signaled, Mina gently spread several pieces of cloth on the table. Khalil gave it to me this morning.
"Blue in heaven, do you know"
All the cloths are blue lineage colors. The darkest color is herd blue or rugged. It has an irresistibly beautiful color, deep but also transparent, as it cut through the most beautiful moments of the twilight night darkness.
Already, I fell in love at first sight! Diluted blue is what a beautiful blue each is, like a spring sky or a ceiling where the tallest universe of the summer sky is transparent!
Blue in the sky is the blue color created by crushing the lapis lazuli that can be picked in the Duke of Yurnova's territory into dyes and pigments. So by nature, this cloth is expensive. On the day you make a dress out of the darkest colors that are the most expensive. Ah, the cost probably relentlessly exceeds the average annual income of ordinary people.
My college friend and hobby was to illustrate it, but he was somewhat obsessed with blue and had been theorized many times, and I knew that in the world of previous life, Lapis Lazuli was used as a dye and paint pigment to dye cloth. Its blue name means Ultramarine in English, Crossing the Sea. Since the region of Lapis Lazuli is Afghanistan, you were blue in Europe coming from beyond the Mediterranean.
In this world, this blue bears a name that, when translated directly, means blue in heaven. I don't know who named it, but it's beautiful, so good job.
"I know the blue in heaven..."
Camilla's eyes nailed to the fabric.
"This is the first time I've seen such uneven and stunning color development. Is it something special?"
"Yes, it was dyed using unconventional dyes discovered in my territory as well as lapis lazuli."
The discoverer is Uncle Isaac, the brother of Sergei's grandfather. He seems to be the finest mineralogist in the history of the Empire to speak with his eyes sparkling like a maiden in love with Mr. Aaron, a mineral maniac.
They say this dye can be produced rather than mined, and something like synthetic ultramarines used in the world of previous life may have just been discovered.
"This new dye is much cheaper than ever before, and it's more beautiful than ever, and it can dye the blue in heaven. I would like to ask Her Majesty the Empress to take a look and appreciate it as a new product of the Empire."
"Affordably?
Crispy Camilla ate.
"It's wonderful - oh, no, with the help of the Duke of Yurnova house, you don't have to worry about the price or anything. More women will be able to wear this beautiful blue."
"I hope so."
I hate that and the shit that got in the way disappeared.
Actually, this was discovered by Uncle Isaac about ten years ago. Then they said that although R&D was underway to be able to manufacture stably, after your grandfather's death, Xobaba would not allow such research. Only a handful of noble humans should wear the blue of heaven, cheaper and less expensive.
So, it seems that Khalil and the others were sneaking up on the research as they highed and nodded, completing it. But even with Baba gone, he said it wasn't fashionable enough to sell.
... If your brother and his men do it, you're busy because there are so many other things you can do without the harm of fucking Baba.
You want to destroy the blue in heaven at an affordable price and make it enjoyable for ordinary people, so you can toothpick it in the shadow of the grass leaves. Damn Baba!
"And the jewels we produce in the Duke's territory, we want to incorporate them into our design. You can choose whatever you want from here."
Mina shows Camilla by taking out a case containing different gems. I got this from Aaron.
Colorful sparkling gems are all a few centimeters in diameter. The colours are bright. I'm not familiar with the quality of the gems or anything, but I feel like it's just a substitute for a hell of a price in a previous life. Millions of yen or tens of millions of yen, or hundreds of millions if you suck... frightened when you think about it.
Because it's just a free advertising tower! It's not like I'm getting it. It's about lending!
"I am aware that this is not in keeping with the current fashion, but I wanted to represent the character of our territory in welcoming His Majesty and His Majesty on behalf of Yurnova territory. We'll put a simple table on the brooch, so I'd like to ask for a woven design."
"Well what a wonderful superb thing...... this beautiful heavenly blue and gem. The design is simply elegant, and the main character is color, right? Yeah, if you're a lady, you can make a mystical beauty out of these, like a goddess. Creative dresses instead of following the current fashion...... how nice. I will do everything in my power!
That said, Camilla quickly starts running the pen into the sketchbook.
I'm so incandescent from here.
I want to be simple but gorgeous Mr. Camilla vs I want to be extremely simple to make the fabric stand out.
I was going to leave the design to you, but I didn't know you had so much fun worrying about dresses......! Besides, I think it might help your brother and his men.
Thanks to you, I may have been looking forward to seeing a flower show off my dress.
It's just a little bit, though.
