Men in Boots
December 14th, 2007
Valery - I seemed to have misplaced his business card - runs a gallery nearby Dawang Road. It specializes in art by Europeans. I hope to make it out there some time. He is French himself. His scarf is dyed fur, but I’m not sure from which animal.
Wu Xiangdong is a model and designer - the coat is his own creation. He is also “artistic inspector” for www.bjfsgh.cn.
This trend is far bigger than dhoti pants. Every other fashionable man I see seems to have the jeans tucked into shortish boots thing going this winter. Somehow, I feel that the look must seem edgier in the US. There “pretentious” would be on the lips of every conservative, Brooks Brothersite. Traditionally, people in the States have always worried about appearing pretentious.

haha, well I wanted to post him, but his attire in the photo no longer seems appropriate for the season. Maybe I can find him again and take a photo - and get his number.
