Sanlitun Village is a favourite location to dress according to new fashion trends or in a more distinctive style without attracting too many glances, but Beijing TV presenter Barbie takes the art of multicolour dressing to new heights.
Tag: Sanlitun 三里屯 and Chaoyang District æœé˜³åŒº
Sanlitun has been Beijing’s main nightlife district for nearly as long as their has been nightlife in post-opening China. Over the years, the area has become more and more gentrified and sanitized. Sanlitun Village, Beijing’s first outdoor mall, with a huge number of shops ranging from Uniqlo to Reiss. The trendiest boutique hotel in the city, the Opposite House is also here. Sanlitun, the CBD, embassy quarter, and residences of most foreigners are in vast Chaoyang District.

Questioning the Showiness
Also at the IT event, Aviva is the senior editor of p1.cn
. Originally from Chongqing, she loves to travel and shop vintage – everything she is wearing is from secondhand shops. She commented that many international and foreign brands are prioritizing the Chinese market and “people and brands in Beijing’s fashion circle love to show off, but most in her country remain very poor”. While most in the circle think expensive is better, Aviva likes a more personal approach to style and as well as fashion that those who “are not so rich can also enjoy”.
She seems to be a bit of a leftie. To me, it always seemed a bit inconsistent that fashion types aren’t more on the right.

Another Dandy
After Septwolves七匹狼之åŽ
This dandyish individual was quite unimpressed by the Septwolves show. Click here for pictures of all the looks. Several editors I spoke with nearby were also very negative, saying if they were going to copy Western shows, the Fujian-based brand should have at least copied well.

After the Septwolves by Daniel Faret show, she works in sales at Bazaar but one suspects she might have worked formerly as a model or perhaps still be doing part time work. Links to pics from that show to come.

There were some interesting individuals at the Shanghai Tang party, including this gentleman from Mongolia who spoke French, though neither English nor Chinese.
Here are more pictures of the Miao-inspired ‘Metamorphosis’ collection.
She is a PR executive.

It’s nice to have a signature look. Top stylist and entrepreneur Tony Li (Li Dongtian) has clearly opted for capes. Tony, who spent nearly a decade living and studying in the US, has always had an international outlook and is looking forward to opening his first foreign shop soon in Sydney.
He was a VIP at Shanghai Tang’s presentation of its Miao culture-inspired ‘Metamorphosis’ collection (Lifestyle Asia has some pics). Jingdaily has more on the live-broadcasting of the show.
