Skulls are not getting any less popular.
Month: May 2010
Loose and Free
It’s a sort of modernization of the traditional Scottish style since it is neither a real kilt nor traditional brogues but certainly very reminiscent of both. Tupper Bai is a makeup artist.
Custom Brogues
I’m just so happy that traditional men’s shoes have recently become popular among women.
Gentlemen Prefer…
Zeitgeist, Male
To me this seems like a highly representative look for this particular moment in time, here in Beijing.
Two Hip Eateries
Here I talk about two must-visit trendy restaurants that opened recently in Beijing. These are frequented by the higher-end of the fashionistas appearing on stylites.
Hip Double-Breasted
A rather nice navy blazer. Such things always manage to look stiff on males.
A Model Agent
Ben is a model agent in Shanghai. He often came to Beijing looking for models. I asked him a few questions.
NF: Do you think opportunities for foreign models in China will increase or decrease?

Second of Fame
Why? I just wanted to show a typical shop owner on Gulou Dongdajie. She is from Tianjin and her shop, called Famous, sells interesting items bearing labels with names like “Marc Jacobs” and “Louis Vuitton”.
More Men at agnès b.
Designer Xander Zhou (周翔宇) thought the agnès b. show as good. His avant-garde designs blur gender, geographic, and subcultural lines in startling ways, but it is rare that I see a piece from him that I can imagine on my own back.

Purple and Orange
There’s something Subcontinental about this. Something about her made me think she was foreign, but she actually from Beijing.
Pierre Cardin Dresses Marco Polo
Always dedicated to bridging the cultural gap, Pierre Cardin paid tribute to his “hero” Marco Polo as co-producer, costume and stage designer for the ballet Marco Polo: The Last Mission in Shanghai on Sunday night.
