There are so many of those pre-tied “strap-on” bow ties going around these days.  I think Men’s Leon editor Ricky might be the first person I’ve seen in Beijing who knows how to tie a real bow tie.

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!

A Stylites post was recently featured on a tumblr called Wearing the pants that collects pictures of women wearing menswear-inspired outfits. For women, such styles have long been fashionable, whereas the man-skirt still turns heads and seems a bit provocative. Also at the David Ubl event, fashion designer Xiao Qiao’s colourful number was created by a friend of his.

This past Saturday, German designer David Ubl presented his summer collection at Beijing rooftop terrace bar The Beach. Unfortunately due to rainy weather, the show was transferred inside. This did not stop the city’s fashion folk from dressing up as their usual chic selves. Here is Chictopia Designer Qing Yang who already appeared on Stylites during this summer’s festival season.

Beijing student Zaylin attended Electric Shadows Film Club’s screening of the American classic Cat on a Hot Tin Roof with Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman last night.  The club had been organizing monthly free classic movie streamings on the Bookworm’s rooftop terrace in Sanlitun throughout the summer and will hopefully find an indoor venue during fall and winter.

Sherry is currently studying in the USA and came back to visit for the summer.

Outside of the Ullens Center were New Pants singer Millionaire Peng (Peng Lei) and his new fiance who actually interviewed me for a magazine about three years ago.

Like more and more people appearing on Stylites, she is studying in London and home on vacation.  It’s increasingly common for Beijing’s hipsters to shop in Shoreditch.

Having studied fashion design in Paris, Xiao Qiao has returned to Beijing for work.

Sanlitun Village is a favourite location to dress according to new fashion trends or in a more distinctive style without attracting too many glances, but Beijing TV presenter Barbie takes the art of multicolour dressing to new heights.
