I just arrived back in Beijing and regular updates on Stylites will start soon. Sorry for the interruption. I was back in the States for my father’s 90th birthday.

Gucci, Foreign Models, and Pajamas
Gucci is Chinese consumers’ favorite fashion brand according to a survey summarized in this article. The only Chinese brand that made the list is Minsheng Bank, favored for accounts. In fact, a few of my billions are guarded by Minsheng.
The Washington Post says foreign models are on the rise in China. It is surprising that they are reporting this now when, to me, it seems that the percentage of foreign models on billboards and magazines has been slowly decreasing. Perhaps the number of “professional” foreigners in the trade is increasing.
Also, the Chinese government determined that slavery is slightly worse than wearing pajamas in public.
Happy New Year
May all of your oddest, most dazzling, fantasies become reality in 2010.
