At the Tennis Club

At the Lacoste SS ’11 preview, a fashion editor probably checking the location for the next media event. PR company Adventi again found an interesting venue, an indoor tennis court that was entered through an air-lock.

这次Lacoste的2011春夏新品预览又是在一个很有意思的场地：博德维网球俱乐部。

The Wild East

Native Americans have resonance here too, it seems. I will have to ask around to whether people here think of them as being Asian.

我想多了解下这里的人有没有觉得美国本地人也是亚洲人。

Purple Labeler

If I were doing this blog in NYC, I might not take a picture of this fellow. However, it Beijing I have never seen anyone, Chinese foreign, dressed this way. He is wearing a Ralph Lauren Purple Label suit and tie. Very nice, though a pocket square might not hurt.

如果在纽约做这样的博客不一定会拍他，但在北京从来没见过穿这样服装的人 － 不管是外国人还是中国人。

Mega Mengmeng in Masha Ma

Masha Ma worn by Mega Mengmeng

Also at Lane Crawford, fashion writer and stylist Mega Mengmeng is wearing a coat from a series that she is designing together with Paris and Shanghai based Chinese designer Masha Ma, called MegaMengMeng by Masha Ma. Here Mega Mengmeng is on a London street style blog.

Masha Ma, based between London, Paris and Shanghai, is one of the most famous fashion designers in China at the moment and she has received an amount of coverage in the Western media to match that distinction. In this Guardian article, the Central Saint Martins graduate who also worked directly with the late Alexander McQueen, explains the secrets to success in the exciting fashion market that is China – apparently the first trick is to embrace the chaos. Here are interviews on the Kering site, the South China Morning Post, and the Time website.

Renzo Rosso

There would have been a lot of people to photograph at Diesel’s giant Sanlitun Village North shop opening the other night, but unfortunately I forgot to recharge the battery in my camera. It was a busy day at the magazine and my mind wasn’t on Stylites.

I did get to meet Diesel’s founder and CEO, Renzo Rosso.

Diesel在三里屯揭幕当晚一定有不少人用相机记录下了此次盛会，而我却忘了给自己的相机充电。那天编辑部特别忙，我的精力完全不在Stylites上。

当晚我见到了Diesel的创始人兼CEO，Renzo Rosso。

Fur Hat Season

It is upon us. It’s nice to see that more Beijingers are finding hats to be stylish these days. In the past, the spectacle of people in giant, grotesque, puffer coats going hatless was always amusing.

我很开心最近更多的时尚一点的北京人愿意戴帽子。原来我一直觉得看到很多人穿着特厚的羽绒服但不戴帽子有点好笑。
