Shanghai Sartorialist





I recently pulled out this past Men.Style.com feature from the depths of my Macbook hard drive and thought that it would fit well here on Curve. I loved how this feature combined 2 of my passions, Asia and Fashion. I often dream of living the expatriate lifestyle and these photos bring a very unique sartorial perspective to the bustling streets of Shanghai. They're almost a throwback to colonialist Shanghai when foreigners used to dress the part. I particularly like the cotton and seersucker suiting in the first two shots. The whole idea of sartorialism in Asia and around the world is an interesting concept to me because it expands your perspective of fashion outside the holy grail of New York, Milan and Paris.
