I am so unhappy that I missed this show.  It seems to have the wildest items of the week.

This young stylist from Macao is wearing a coat he designed.  It uses synthetic hair as epaulettes.

At the cocktail hour after the Maris Frolg show that showcased a selection of nice, wearable items.  The show didn’t start until nine fifteen, so by the end, it was already past some people’s bedtimes.  China Fashion Week can be wearying even for the most stylish spectators.

This young student was on her way into the Jefen by Frankie show.

Kaka was one of the most memorable models in the Jefen by Frankie show.  She is from Brazil and has been in Beijing for three weeks.  So far, she has walked on the runways of Cabeen, Jefen and a few other brands that she doesn’t remember.  Beijing is a bit too cold, she says.

From Los Angeles, Debbie Remmers and Kip Rowles were VIPs at the  “Beyond the Lights: Urban Warriors” Septwolves by Daniel Faret show yesterday.  The foreign contingent at Septwolves was more sizable than any other show and the designer is from France.

My reflections on these three key menswear shows is coming soon.  They were all better than I expected.  I’ve been extremely busy going to various shows while fulfilling my usual set of responsibilities at the magazine.

This spectator at Notting Hill manages to express so many things with one shirt: taste, status, wealth, elegance…the list goes on.  I am dumbstruck with admiration.  He should have brought this style compatriot as his date.

这一位观看Notting Hill的观众仅仅用一件衬衫就表达了他的品位，地位，个人价值，以及对自我高雅的评判， 当然可以表达的还有很多，很多…… “惊艳”这个词可以用来形容我对这件衬衫的欣赏。 他应该带这个品牌的另一个忠实拥护者当他的晚伴。
