Chapter 203:Kasha’s maid costume first experience
With the construction team arranged Charlotte asked Buddy to take him to Ivan's tailor shop to pick up the clothes for Kasha and Vivian.
The maid outfits and the Lolita dresses looked pretty good in terms of color coordination, but he didn't know how they would look when worn.
Ivan looked at Charlotte and scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.
"Doctor, the dresses you designed are really beautiful. I wonder if I can use your design to make a batch of clothes for sale?"
"You want to make them into ready-to-wear clothes?"
Charlotte was a little surprised because Ivan had always been making custom-made clothes.
"Ready-to-wear? Are you referring to mass-produced finished clothes?" Ivan nodded.
"Yes, that's right. I want to make a batch of identical dresses in different sizes. Customers can come to the store and choose directly, eliminating the series of cumbersome processes involved in custom-made clothes."
"This idea is quite good, but making them into ready-to-wear clothes means that the unit price will be lower than custom-made clothes.
It also requires higher efficiency and there will inevitably be unsold clothes left.
You also need to consider sizing for customers. These are things you need to think about," Charlotte said.
On the continent of Isor, there probably weren't any large-scale ready-to-wear clothing manufacturers yet, so Ivan's idea was quite bold.
With Charlotte's experience, he saw great potential in the ready-to-wear clothing industry.
This would be a disruptive move for the garment market, which was mainly dominated by private custom-made clothes and homemade clothes made by housewives.
"I've been a tailor for most of my life, and I know the general body sizes of the customers almost by heart.
I'm very clear about the range of people's body sizes, and I will determine the appropriate sizes based on the style of the clothes, allowing people of that size to wear them more appropriately and decently," Ivan said confidently but also somewhat embarrassedly.
"Mainly because the tailor shop just reopened, and I haven't received any orders yet. I'm idle every day, so I want to give it a try.
Apart from your two dresses, I've prepared six sets of clothes and dresses for myself, planning to make six pieces for each set, just to test the waters."
Charlotte did not doubt Ivan's professionalism and his high efficiency in tailoring.
It was worth a try.
So, he nodded and said, "No problem, you can take those two dresses."
"Thank you so much."
Ivan's face lit up with joy and he said, "For these two dresses you designed, I will keep a record of the sales. For every dress sold, I will pay you 10% of the sales as a reward."
Charlotte thought to himself, isn't that just a design fee?
But he didn't refuse, instead, he smiled and nodded, "No problem, I look forward to receiving this reward."
Carrying the woven basket, Charlotte left the tailor shop, and Buddy drove him directly back to the clinic.
"Boss," Vivian came out of the alchemy room, holding a basket of potions, and looked at Charlotte who had just entered the room with some anticipation.
She asked, "Where's the dress?"
"Here it is." Charlotte raised the woven bag in her hand.
"Kasha, come out quickly, our dress has arrived," Vivian shouted into the alchemy room.
Kasha walked out quickly, her fair face smeared with black charcoal, looking like a little cat with a painted face, and her small white hands were also stained with colors of various materials.
"What are you doing?" Charlotte asked, puzzled.
Kasha quickly hid her hands behind her back, lowered her eyes, and dared not look at him, like a guilty child.
"I am teaching Kasha how to make potions. She said we work too hard, so she wants to share some of our work," explained Vivian, looking at Kasha with a smile.
"Kasha is learning very earnestly."
Charlotte felt warm hearing this and looked at the little cat-like Kasha.
He asked softly, "Kasha is considerate. How is she doing? Has she learned how to clean the potions?"
Kasha blushed and shook her head.
"She's getting there," Vivian interjected, taking the bag from Charlotte's hand and holding Kasha's hand.
"Kasha, I'll help you clean up first, then we'll go and change into the new clothes."
Charlotte watched the two of them run upstairs and suddenly smelled a burnt odor.
He quickly walked into the alchemy room.
Oh my, he had only been out for half the day, but the alchemy room looked like it had exploded three hundred times.
The ceiling, walls, and floor were all covered in remnants of materials, a mess everywhere.
In a large black pot, there was a thick black liquid simmering, emitting a strong burnt smell.
Charlotte sighed and took the pot off the stove.
This doesn't look like she's learned it quickly, but Vivian's talent for comforting people is top-notch.
He thought about cleaning up the alchemy room but quickly gave up.
He didn't know where to start, so he would let Vivian use her cleaning magic later to take care of it all at once.
As he stepped out of the alchemy room, he heard footsteps coming from the stairs.
Vivian jumped out first, wearing a main pink Lolita dress with a white pleated hem and adorable bows everywhere.
Her short legs were covered in white knee-high socks, and she looked magnificent and cute with her animal ear headband.
It suited her very well.
"How does it look? Is it pretty?"
Vivian twirled the dress fluttering, forming a fluffy circle, and revealing her white frilly bloomers.
"Well, it's nice, very nice. No wonder I designed it," Charlotte nodded in satisfaction.
It was much cuter than the dress Diana made for her before.
This is how an animal ear Lolita should dress.
So, so, so cute!
It feels like one could cry for a long time after landing a punch.
This small stature is made for Lolita fashion.
If it were a tall person, it wouldn't be that cute.
"Hehe, I love it too."
Vivian heard the praise and her smile became even brighter. She turned her head and grabbed Kasha, pulling her out.
Kasha's maid costume is a classic black and white combination, with a gorgeous ruffled apron that cinches at the waist, accentuating her slender figure.
The long skirt reaches the floor, concealing her fishtail.
The neckline is intricately designed to showcase her beautiful collarbone.
Perhaps it's because white makes one look bigger, or maybe Charlotte has been eating well lately, but he feels like Kasha's chest seems to be getting fuller.
She wears a white headband, neatly gathering her beautiful hair behind her.
This outfit is simple yet elegant.
Charlotte's eyes instantly light up.
It's perfect!
This is exactly the maid he had envisioned!
"Master, do you... do you think it looks good?" Kasha asks softly, her face blushing.
"Well, Kasha, you look very good in this dress," Charlotte nods and smiles.
Kasha's innocent face, paired with this maid outfit, is simply the epitome of elegance in the maid world.
Waking up every day to such a beautiful mermaid maid increases happiness in life.
"It's great that you like it," Kasha's face also breaks into a happy smile.
"But, about brewing potions..." Charlotte ponders.
Kasha's face instantly turns red, and her small hands nervously grab onto her skirt.
Charlotte looks at her and can't bring himself to say anything harsh.
Instead, he says, "It's alright. Maybe Vivian isn't very professional as a master. Come, let me teach you."
Vivian: ??
So, it's my fault now?
"Vivian, come and clean the floor," Charlotte's voice comes from the alchemy room.
"Oh, here comes the cleaning lady," Vivian steps forward and thoroughly cleans the alchemy room with her cleaning magic.
"Alright, you can rest now. Kasha, let's use your pot to practice," Charlotte closes the door, locking Vivian outside.
However, Vivian isn't annoyed.
Instead, she leisurely climbs onto a high stool behind the counter, picks up Anna who is lazily lying on the counter, and asks with a smug smile, "Anna, how long do you think the boss will last before breaking down?"
Charlotte's breakdown probably arrives in about twenty minutes.
Kasha is a very meticulous girl, whether it's grinding materials or weighing them, she does it with great care and without any issues.
Her problem lies in controlling the heat, or rather... fire control.
For some reason, whenever she stands in front of the alchemy furnace, the flames below become inexplicably restless, even increasing multiple times in intensity.
Charlotte carefully teaches her how to clean the first batch of potions, thinking it would be a sure success.
But the sudden increase in firepower directly causes the almost finished potion to explode.
Fortunately, Charlotte reacts quickly and pulls Kasha into the corner, avoiding getting splashed by the scorching potion.
The next three attempts end up in almost the same situation.
With the sudden increase in firepower, the pot would either get burnt or explode, creating a scene of extreme devastation.
Just like a princess that blows up pots!
Kasha is held in Charlotte's embrace, her body trembling slightly, her eyes reddened with tears swirling inside.
She asks with a hint of sadness and self-blame, "Master, am I clumsy and troublesome?"
"Of course not, it's just that standing in front of the stove and brewing potions might not be suitable for Kasha."
Charlotte gently taps her back and looks into her eyes, softly saying, "If Kasha were good at everything, then it wouldn't make me as the master seem so extraordinary.
You're very meticulous.
From now on, I'll let you handle the grinding and weighing of materials.
This way, both Vivian and I can focus on brewing potions, and our efficiency will surely improve."
Kasha's eyes gradually brighten, and the feeling of dejection dissipates.
She nods vigorously and says, "Okay, Kasha will do her best to complete the tasks."
