Whenever I’m in London, a trip to Chinatown is a must. Not that there is a particular restaurant of supermarket I desperately need to hit up, but I just need those vibez. We ventured over on a busy LFW day, and it proved to be an adventure. Dressed in my electric suit from Renli Su, I turned into a temporary tourist attraction. Optimistic tourists passing through asked for pictures and I felt a bit like I was on Disney princess/mafia character duty. I obliged, peaceful and welcoming.

I obviously didn’t take any of it personally: it was all the suit. I first found out about Renli Su through her collab with the Dong Liang store in Beijing. Her remix of Mark Rothko’s colorplay, the elegance of Victorian-era women and her Tibetan roots made her clothes a Desirable Number One on my list – located smack center between China and the UK (which is also where my brain happens to chill most of these days.) Aesthetic-wise, her clothes take me to another era – a time where people want to express rather than impress. And I like that. A lot.

Anyway, this was taken the second day in London when – thank god – it was not pouring a teapot. Lots of touristing around Covent Garden, some perfume tasting, chocolate sampling and shoe-ogling at United Nude, while also making it to some shoes. Also I need to do this hairstyle more – it helps to cancel out my granny personality.

London for the Weekend

Hey guys, I got into London last night, and it’s been a full and pretty funny day. I literally know like five people in London right now, but I bumped into three of them walking down the randomest streets. Including Jeff and Paulien.

Anyway, we say two amazing shows today, first Yifang Wan, who I was first introduced to when I worked at WUHAO in Beijing this summer. While all the pieces I’ve seen by her have been very dark and black, this collection was all about clean cut white with funky shades and glittery party suits. So much glitter love. So much.


Jumpsuit whoa.
