The choice by this student of black and white with a dash of red is actually quite common for fashionable people in China but the studs on the trousers make the scarf seem like a reference to prison, while the shrunken pea coat seems militaristic and the hat a bit threatening – all together an interesting effect. This was at Oriental Plaza.
