Stylites

In a League of Her Own

Not long before seeing her at the Burberry party (the post before), I encountered Ivy in the hutongs.  Born in Beijing, she grew up outside the Second Ring, she now lives near Nanluoguxiang.  At the moment, in addition to studying design and designing, she writes for a range of fashion magazines. Ivy frequently travels abroad, preferring Paris and Tokyo.

This pair of shoes is part of one of her collections.  Anyway, I am eager to see more.  Her website will be up soon.  I’m sure her aesthetic thoughts will creep into our hearts and enchant us away from the codes we hold to most dogmatically, the way ivy encircles the most stolid, old, structures, breaking them down…

    Not sure about the grey socks, otherwise pretty well put together, especially for a homegrown

    Well, I think she was going out to pick up groceries or something, so not every detail was deemed essential.

    Tell her to be impemccable even on a grocery run around that part of town – the world is watching!

    The grey adds a quirky contrast & makes a break from textbook chic.
