One always wonders whether certain stripes or checks can be put in the same outfit. I never even consider putting two different polka dot patterns together, but it seems to work here.

This editor is from the magazine 1626, which focuses on readers in the age range of 16 to 26. I might be doing a column for them in the near future. I have another friend who is the publisher of 0086 (0086 is the country code for China). He commented that his magazine is for everyone between 0 and 86. Here’s another editor from that magazine.
There is surely no current trend that I love more than brogues for girls – partially because I would often wear the shoes myself.
This must be the most pleasing example of the retro China trend I mentioned in another post. This artist seems like a perfect Bye Bye Disco customer. 原来俗称劳动布做的西服和80年代的那种球鞋。
Photos by Teresa Yeh The sparkling rosé was quite nice. Madame Figaro editor Zhang Shen was among the glamorous media guests, but she was drinking water out of a champagne flute. She had to head back to the office after the party. Photo by Teresa Yeh Here is Vega Wang at the opening party (for media) of her first storefront/workshop in Beijing’s Jianwai Soho. Hers is one of the first freestanding boutiques opened by a local fashion designer. This womanswear shop is a must-see for visitors and locals alike as it is a rare example in Beijing of a creative, pleasant, interior design combined with a 100% locally conceived and produced brand. The workshop is on the other side of the fitting room, but the master cutter in the back room is disciplined enough not to peep in on any of the beautiful clients for whom he custom makes dresses.
An interesting study in purple here. She is a recent graduate of art school, as I recall.
How cute and colorful!
Outside über-hip boutique Surfin’ Bird was photographer Wang Peng, who had just finished a beer or two.
This editor from Men’s Uno was sporting some very nice checked cuffs on his trousers. We’ve had the Editorial Director and another fashion editor here on Stylites before.
Beijing is starting to have its share of hipsters with fixed gear bikes. This one was purchased on Wudaoying Hutong and customized by the owner. 如今，北京的潮人们也开始玩单链自行车（俗称：“死飞轮”）。这辆就是在此人在五道营
胡同专门定制的。
Having a drink, vintagy photographer Zhang Zheming is founder of his own studio, called Furious, which is engaged in design of print advertisements as well as shoots for fashion magazines. He previously worked for J. Walter Thompson, Ogilvy & Mather Advertising and other 4A advertising agencies. I chatted with him about fashion in Beijing. 摄影师张哲明曾就职于智威汤逊、奥美等北京4A广告公司，任美术指导，2007年在中央美院摄影系进修，随后创立Furious摄影工作室，长期从事平面广告及时尚杂志的拍摄工作。
China Auto Pictorial had me find a few stylish people around Nanluoguxiang and take pictures of them with this Ferarri Enzo. Check out their August issue! Unsurprisingly, I not only do not own a car, but also actively oppose the auto culture which so perverted the landscape of the United States and is now making life in Beijing more and more unbearable. My thoughts are similar to the editor who assisted me on this. Of course the issue is more complicated than just saying “I oppose cars”. I also thought it would be proper to acknowledge here China’s status as the world’s newest and potentially greatest Automobile Kingdom. This hipster above is one who did not actually appear in the magazine. Below are the ones who did.
From Hong Kong, Cindy Ma now lives in Beijing with her family. Cindy and her two partners (also fashion designers) just opened a boutique, L-M-C, in the Lido area. The store carries selections of clothing, jewelry, and accessories for women from Asian, Canadian, Belgian, and British designers. Stylites’ Liang Cheng recently interviewed Cindy. Cindy Ma 是来自香港，但现在住在北京与她的家人。Cindy和她的两个合伙人（也设计师）最近开了一家精品店叫“L-M-C”在丽都。这家店的选择有许多风格的服装，和进口首饰。与亚洲元素和融合的设计.
Think “Hotel General Manager” and the image of Joe Ho probably won’t come to mind. In Beijing, most general managers of international brand five star hotels are plump European men invariably wearing a boring black suit and sometimes even square toed loafers. The more stylish ones might don an Hermès tie, gifted by the wife. Most surprisingly, Joe is the GM of the Grand Millennium Fortune Plaza Apartments rather than the chicest boutique hotel in town. Joe Ho，日文名须古家航，中文名何家航，现任北京财富中心千禧公寓总经理，中日混血，早年在美国成长，从事酒店业工作30多年，非常喜好时尚，有设计师般敏锐的流行感知。 |
