SPITGAN MAGAZINE: SPITTING MAD FIRE
Really liked the set up of this event. Burberry took over the old Diesel store in Central and kept it raw. Raw as in the interior was gutted out to the concrete skeleton, and they decorated it with Alasdair McLellan’s photography and the new collection. The new collection was in E-F-F-E-C-T so everything was kosher. The crowd was young and snap happy. Only the grown heads drank and we drank like fish! Salute to the free flow. We definitely made sure it flowed free! Also dabbled in all the alchol offerings too…Strangely an IPA made an appearance in the midst of all the bubbles. Kinda confused about the photographs on offer. Some slice of life ish from landscapes to portraits of Merry England. I’m a fan of Alasdair but this stuff just felt like wall covering. Good to catch up with friends, enemies, and Burberry peeps alike!

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!

A fashionable set of fashion editors I must say. Michael Kors no wear to be seen!

So it’s ice cream. It’s amazing that this simply exists. I didn’t know ice cream bars could get so lux. It’s cool your that vested in it Magnum. A fun little cartoon ditty none the less.
