If Weibo (China’s twitter) is any gauge, the real style icon of the Lane Crawford x Opening Ceremony event this past Saturday was less Chloë Sevigny than aspiring actress Xin Yuan. I posted this photo on Weibo on Sunday and it has already been passed on (@ed) 103 times. This is, of course, just one of many photos circulating on Weibo of this young actress. Her dress is designed by a Beijing-based brand called Chictopia.

I know there has been quite a lot here about Burberry, but it was the biggest event in the brand’s longish history and we had two people from Stylites taking photos. The FT has a nice sum-up. Burberry brought Keane, Prada brought the Petshop Boys a couple months ago. Next, I hope some fashion brand will fly David Bowie out. He is rather more important for fashion.
Anyway, let’s see who wasn’t wearing Burberry. Above is GQ Fashion Editor Fashion Editor Dan Cui a high-collared shirt and a dotted Dior Homme jacket.
Photographer Sunny chose a “replica” Hermès scarf. Her main purpose in coming to the event was seeing her favourite singer, Hong Kong star Eason Chan. I wasn’t able to determine how many replicas of Burberry items there were at the event.

Many people were wearing the latest threads from Burberry. The Vogue EIC Angelica Cheung was wearing the exact same coat that night.
Many items seemed to be from the now available Spring 2011 collection, the theme of which was “heritage biker”. For this collection, designer Christopher Bailey was inspired by biker gear created by Thomas Burberry in the early 1900s. We will try to find out how many of these items are purchased at the full Mainland price. For the time being, have a look at this piece our friends at JingDaily have on the price discrepancy between the Mainland and abroad.

Still quite a few more photos from the Burberry event…don’t know that I have ever seen a face that chiseled in China, but he keeps it real with bowl-cut.
It wasn’t just the usual fashion people: there were hipsters too. The grand event celebrating the opening of Burberry’s new flagship was at a venue not frequently used for fashion parties, Beijing Television Centre. Featured was the British band Keane, performing for the first time in China. Jing Daily has more analysis on the digital component of the event. You can see the video from the event just below. This was the first time that Stylites featured live live streaming of an event. 
Here are Yitrends creator Alice McInerney and Polish radio Tomasz Sajewicz.
Sunny is an entrepreneur and general international man of mystery who makes all the fashion parties.
Spring has arrived and so have the British: Today, Burberry’s Chief Creative Officer Christopher Bailey will inaugurate one of the brand’s most technically advanced flagship stores at Sparkle Roll Plaza and promises to celebrate British Music, Technology and fashion globally from Beijing.
春天带来了英国的时尚之风：今天，Burberry首席创意总监克里斯托弗 贝利 (Christopher Bailey)将在Sparkle Roll Plaza主持Burberry品牌有史以来最先进的旗舰店的开幕式，这次在北京的活动将融合英国音乐、高科技和时尚等元素。
担任店内装修设计的贝利表达了他对中国神奇的创造力、多彩的活力和悠久的历史的热爱，他为能够在北京这座神奇的城市和Burberry全球的团队一起庆祝这个令人兴奋的时刻而感到荣幸。

My main job has been consuming so much of my time recently that I didn’t get a chance to put up all the photos from the Create&Inspire and inspire event at Lane Crawford. Well, here they are.
最近特别忙 － 现在才有时间把Create&Inspire的图片放上来。又是Jeffrey － 你们审美疲劳了么？

If I were doing this blog in NYC, I might not take a picture of this fellow. However, it Beijing I have never seen anyone, Chinese foreign, dressed this way. He is wearing a Ralph Lauren Purple Label suit and tie. Very nice, though a pocket square might not hurt.
如果在纽约做这样的博客不一定会拍他，但在北京从来没见过穿这样服装的人 － 不管是外国人还是中国人。
