At Izzue FW 2011, the show was terrific, the music great and the ladies very lovely. But the gents were particularly well-dressed. We know that the art of adding a little detail to a suit-and-shirt combo can bring an edge to any outfit, creating personal style. I found some who have developed this sartorial skill almost to perfection and really don’t need much presentation. Enjoy!

Jacy is a fashion design student at the Raffles Design Institute of Tianjin. His earth-coloured combination was true eye candy in a sea of dressy black and colour blocked outfits and high high heels during the Young Designers Fashion show which took place this thursday at Financial Street’s Seasons Place.
A bit late, but here are some of the pics from the Ilaria show. She is a young lady from Hong Kong working for a major advertising company.
Antonio Bandini is the designer for Ilaria. He used to work under Valentino. His coat is from Prada, though I think he fastened the bow-tie on the lapel. Currently there are no plans for an Ilaria menswear collection though China might be a better place if there were. There isn’t really a local brand for boys that is stylish – but not painfully avant-garde like the work of most young designers – in high-quality fabrics and simple cuts.
Despite the name, the brand Ilaria is based in China and founded by a Chinese woman, though the designer is Mr. Bandini, an Italian. Here are pics of the looks that were on show. “>Here are pics of the looks that were on show. The founder of the brand Ms. Ilaria He formerly lived in Italy.
This dandyish individual was quite unimpressed by the Septwolves show. Click here for pictures of all the looks. Several editors I spoke with nearby were also very negative, saying if they were going to copy Western shows, the Fujian-based brand should have at least copied well.

After the Septwolves by Daniel Faret show, she works in sales at Bazaar but one suspects she might have worked formerly as a model or perhaps still be doing part time work. Links to pics from that show to come.

After the Dorian Ho show, he was in town from Hunan for China and did not want to give his name or career.
In what is becoming a continuing series on notable appearances of the Louis Vuitton logo in Beijing, here is Parker Yin, founder of Shanghai China Hosun Brand Original Fashion Design Studio. The hat and tie necklace are Parker’s trademarks, which he sported at numerous China Fashion Week shows.

Most spectators at China Fashion Week were not as stylish as the average shopper Sanlitun Village let alone the guests at most fashion parties hosted by foreign brands. Most days at 798 or Beijing Hotel, one could hardly spot the up-to-style bloggers, editorialistas or models with fashion accessories straight off the runway – images so familiar in Paris, New York and Milan. Only the number of media, though almost entirely local, approached international levels.
大部分来中国国际时装周的人没有一般在三里屯逛街的人穿得时尚 － 更没法跟在北京参加时尚活动的人比。这个跟纽约、巴黎和米兰的时装周完全不一样。只有媒体人的数量可以跟国外的时装周比。
Cabbeen’s collection won him the overall award for best designer at this year’s fashion week, and Wang Yutao won it for menswear. Model Sean was in both shows and he says he prefers the Wang Yutao’s collection for Beauty Berry.

There were all kinds of types at the Armani store opening. I would prefer this shirt in a brown and beige print like the classic monogram bags.
One tends to think of China’s development in terms of pre and post Reform and Opening. I think it is also instructive to think in terms of Before Louis Vuitton (BLV) and After Louis Vuitton (ALV).
Lady Anne covers men’s fashion for Sohu, one of China’s premier online portals. She describes her own fashion sense as “Mod”. Her favorite show of the last China International Fashion Week was Notting Hill.
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.

Probably mainland China’s most famous designer, Frankie smiles after his own rather Madonna-themed show. In 2006, he was the first mainland Chinese designer to show his collections at Paris fashion week.
This young graphic designer sits in this chair outside of Ruxi nearly every day, often with a bottle of beer. He hasn’t been able to find a job for around three months. Over the last few nights, he has partied till every sunrise. Does that qualify as a life of leisure?
