The Traffique Shanghai launch celebrates the re-emergence of China’s most cosmopolitan megalopolis as a major style influence on global fashion, often by way of its street style. There could be no better location for such a launch than the designer resale and vintage platform Pawnstar, with its seven story shop in the middle of the French Concession on Fuxing and Fenyang Roads.
Based in Spain, Traffique is a street style and ecommerce website, that allows customers to purchase that they see worn by the most edgy, stylish people of cities like London, Paris, Tokyo and now Shanghai. Photographer Jose Maria will be at the shop to catalogue the looks and do mini-interviews of his subjects.
Stylites was of course there at the start of street fashion photography in China – maybe it was the start in terms of blogs in this area – and is very pleased to see that the subject remains a very interesting one.
