Style Revolution 时尚革命

Saturday (4/24) at 4pm, Lane Crawford is holding an event with Grazia that is part of the ongoing “Style Revolution”. There’s going to be a style competition, for which I will be photographing. I hope that you can make it.

明天是连卡佛举行的“时尚革命”专属购物周末活动。下午4:00-6:00是个机会跟《红秀GRAZIA》的主编及时尚总监会面。我也会帮他们做节拍比赛。希望你们能来。

Provocative Midriff

Red Brogue Girl

Zhang Chi å¼ é©°

I can’t believe that Zhang Chi has not appeared on Stylites before. A very Beijing sort of boy from accent to attitude, Zhang Chi went to the UK to study at 16 and later pursued a master’s degree in Milan, Italy, at Istituto Marangoni. Returning to China in 2010, his collections have shown at China Fashion Week. One of his main themes is a medieval knight brought up to the 21st century. I suspect we will have a more in-depth interview with him here in the near future.

The Future Global Cognitive Elite?

Elizabeth Ho is the single person of 100% Chinese extraction in the “It’s My Time photoshoot, currently occuring in the Meatpacking District.

Here she is being interviewed by May Chang, Senior Editor of the Chinese edition of Milk Magazine. May is a Hong Kong girl based in Beijing. The other member of the Chinese media at the “It’s My Time” event was Quentin Li, Fashion Director at Elle. And then there was me.

Two Nights in the Meatpacking

Springtime downtown is heartbreaking – the incomparable light, the adorable architecture, and everyone so attractive and determined. It’s another whirlwind tour through Manhattan, this time to attend the shooting of “It’s My Time”. Lodging is in the Standard, cocktails with the 20 finalists are in the Boom Boom Room and the photo shoot by Josh Olins is at Superstudios. I am eager to experience life in the Meatpacking District.

Kevin Tallon from Robe di Kappa

Off the normal fashion week schedule was the Robe Di Kappa show. Kevin Tallon from St Martin’s Design Laboratory of London headed the team that created one of the strongest collections of the week from the perspectives of theme consistency, innovation in fabrication and cut, and integrity of design.
