A fashion blogger of Chinese origin born in Denver, Colorado first started her blog with a review of the ten best in the “Big Four” fashion weeks Spring/Summer 2010 in January, 2010. In the following month, she set up a fan page on Facebook reaching more than 4,000 followers today. Miao has lived a kind of nomadic lifestyle between Hong Kong and Taiwan, Taiwan and Perth, Perth and Europe and so on since she was a child. Her multicultural background has exposed her to various lifestyles and different attitudes towards fashion yet even strengthened her motherland ties and her pride in being Chinese. Having worked in visual merchandising and marketing for the brands such as Ralph Lauren and TSE New York, Miao was trained to have a good eye on fashion and luxury goods. She doesn’t believe fashion as an individual entity, it has got to be linked up with history and culture. Miao is especially keen on the design inspired by oriental aesthetics. She sees it kind of her mission to bring any talented Chinese/Asian designers to the world’s attention.
Realizing the blogging market is so over-saturated, which means fashion bloggers from all over the world are doing more or less the same thing. Miao, being conscious of her Chinese heritage, tends to make her blog unique and genuine by specializing herself in oriental-inspired fashion with eastern motifs cross-fertilizing western styles which brings an exotic feel to it. While most bloggers are keeping an eye on the traditional “Big Four” fashion cities in the West and craving for the latest news about Karl Lagerfeld, Miao is exploring the emerging fashion markets in the East and helps spread the word about the best up-and-coming designers from China, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, etc. On top of that, La Mode by GV Miao provides a platform for fashionistas to comment on their favorite oriental/ethnic/folklore designs and express their views on fashion of an oriental theme. Followers are also welcome to leave words about what they think “orientalism” may possibly mean, and what necessary elements should be there to make it oriental fashion. Miao, in addition to being a keen admirer of the glitz and glamour of oriental style, celebrates antique and vintage fashion in her blog. What makes each historical piece special and appealing is the story behind them. It is indeed an interesting experience to feel like having gone through a nostalgia phase when blogging about vintage.

Further to my last visit to Popup Shop @Bisous Hong Kong  where I explored Viniga’s Fall/Winter entire black collection by a passionate and spontaneous designer friend from South Africa Brigitte Mitchell, I attended Viniga’s latest cocktails at Brigitte’s studio in November, and had my first glimpse of the proto samples of Spring/Summer 2013 collection. To respect the designer’s wish not to disclose her new designs until all details are finalized for the official photo shoot, I didn’t snap any pictures of any pieces from the new collection except of a white beaded collar dress picked by the designer. The beaded collar trend that rocked last season will still continue through next Spring/Summer. No no no Viniga is not just about black and white. Brigitte waves bye to all black style and says hi to bold, colorful looks to receive the blossom season. You’ll be stunned by her experiments with bright and loud colors. Delicate materials like organza and chiffon are widely used sewn with exquisite details as what Viniga is known for. Itching to see the collection up close and personal? Pictures always worth a thousand words. I’m looking forward to blog live from the photo shoot. Brigitte, please keep me posted. To be continued, until the photo shoot kicks off.

I came upon the opening ceremony of Bvlgari “Magnificence of Time” exhibition (Hong Kong) by chance. I’m definitely not an expert in the invaluable and exquisitely handcrafted timepieces showcased at the exhibition in which the haute Swiss watch crafters spend their entire lives perfecting with passion and determination. I’m not afraid to admit that I know nothing about timepiece technology, neither am I obsessed with million dollar watches. My fans please excuse me for not giving a review of the collection exhibited, but I don’t have to be knowledgeable about the little treasure worn on your wrist to admire this delicate antique looking magician automaton clock and blue light installation I spotted. Everyone has a universal sense called “beauty” and an innate ability to appreciate it. They’re just simply too…. ummmm…… KOOOOOL (can’t think of a better word lol) not to share with you aren’t they?

Louis Vuitton X Yayoi Kusama "Infinitely Kusama" Collection

Never tired of polka dots (almost to the point of obsession recently I know)!
The polka dot patterns applied to shoes, handbags, shirts, skirts and sunglasses come in different sizes and color combos (red/white, red/black, yellow/black, and black/white).
Louis Vuitton’s “Infinitely Kusama” collection is bound to be a classic. I’m so ready to collect it and you?

In addition to being beautiful as usual, Valentino Fall/Winter 2012 collection carries some interesting design details which drop a hint about the Fall/Winter fashion trends. On the runway, I saw lots of black and camel (the everlasting colors), the jumpsuit trend is gonna to last, and the Asian inspired fabric buttons are the key elements of the design. Do they suit your taste? _______________________ Follow GV Miao fashion blog on: Blog: http://la-mode-by.gvmiao.com/ GV Miao fashion blog fb page: Fashion Blog: La Mode by GV Miao - an Oriental Perspective bloglovin’: http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/3102018/la-mode-by-gv-miao Twitter: http://twitter.com/GV_Miao Tumblr: http://lamodebygvmiao.tumblr.com/ Google+: http://www.gplus.to/gvmiao Pure Bloggers.com: http://purebloggers.com/profile-4147/ Fashiolista: http://www.fashiolista.com/style/gwenvikkeymiao/ Chictopia: http://www.chictopia.com/GV_Miao

Review SHIATZY CHEN Fall/Winter 2012 complete runway show collection@Paris Fashion Week here

Review SHIATZY CHEN Fall/Winter 2012 complete runway show collection here:
Chinese chic hit Paris Fashion Week
3 Chinese supermodels, Ming Xi, Xiao Wen Ju and Sui He walked the runway with the international top model Carmen Kass rounding off the show in the mysterious Chinese qipao silhouette black lace gown with a mermaid train. Extensive use of red color, yellow gold and royal blue, exquisite beading and embroidery on silk chiffon and satin, excellent craftsmanship and a series of signature Chinese qipao silhouette dresses contributed to the making of Chinese glitz and glam of the show. I absolutely love it and you?
