MICHAEL KORS SHANGHAI EVENT

What I do remember about this event is it was an INSTAGRAM/social media heaven. Meaning everywhere you turned, the venue was made for maximum posting effect. Savvy. Oh, now memory returns. The first DJ was a popular fella but the second DJ was playin’ dem funk jams! Of course by that time most of the hip crowd had left. Shanghai party goers shut it down early. Correct me if I am wrong. The next level? They invited guests to be filmed like a live movie scene. Invited to do their own struts which were instantly broadcasted on a huge screen front and center at the venue. The set up came replete with a ‘director’ that yelled instructions at ya through a megaphone! Peoples were lined up for miles. Otherwise it was good to see some very important leaders of the golden era of the HK fashion industry. Keep that champagne comin!

ELLERY FW17 WOMENS

Diet Prada has a real hard-on for Ellery but I’m down. Clearly there is an influence but a lot o’ designer brands are under the influence now. If you called ’em on it, really what would be left? Diggin’ this season’s innovations too, cuts and materials. The details on the knits, unconventional openings. The woman is tough and angular, coulda really worked well in the new Bladerunner. Keep on!

CHIKA KISADA FW17 WOMEN’S WEAR

Chika Kisada 的設計有點Garcons 感。向橫發的大蓬鬆、紗裙、皺摺等。設計師以前是職業芭蕾舞蹈員。她也喜歡在設計中強調這個元素及打造一種強悍的優雅。純黑色的ruffles露肩毛衣便很有芭蕾舞感。很美麗的一個系列。

RATPACK FASHION PRESENTATION SHANGHAI

上年一個頗寒冷的夜晚,我們參加了一個在上海的時尚派對,看看Ratpack的新系列。這是一個超奇怪的空間,有個浴缸、啤酒雪櫃、一缸的Party Juice…就似一個親密朋友間的聚會,很Chill的一種能量流動和穿過整個場地。當然Ratpack的新男女裝系列才是主角。從量身定制的產品到精緻的牛仔,他們的DNA一部分是那種Stree/運動衫的原素,另一部分是成衣。看來他們最忠誠的粉絲和主幹成員的生活樂趣頗健康的,什至有幾勺調刺。這絕對是個很棒的夜晚!什麼用了我們的編輯做model,what a good idea!

On a cold night last fall we went to join the fashionable set in Shanghai to check out Ratpack’s new collection. It was an intimate affair in a quirky space complete with tub, extensive beer fridge, and ominous pitcher o’ party juice! Really it was a gathering of intimate friends, and it had a real chill vibe and flow of peeps passing through and enjoying the company. The undertone of it all was of course Ratpack’s new collection of both men’s and women’s pieces. From tailored offerings to sheered denim’s, Ratpack’s DNA is part street/sportwear, part pret-a-porter. Clearly their ardent fans and core like a healthy dose of fun in their life and a few spoons of sarcasm to boot! It was a great night! Even roped a certain editor of ours to model. Good idea.

EDELINE LEE FW17 WOMENS

Hannah Höch is a Dada artist. Hannah Höch’s creations had a strong influence on this collection from Edeline Lee. Edeline Lee is based in London, and I want to bet the smart money she is Korean. As true to a Dada artist some pieces are rather wild and whimsical here. I like how Edeline has paired it down to a cohesive statement and these three pieces do it best! We look forward to more.
