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.

I seldom make videos. Due to my #literary background, my strength lies solely in expressing passion and fondness for #fashion in words. But sometimes I can’t ignore the fact that a video is worth a thousand words considering that #fashion is a form of #visual #art after all. What’s better than watching with your own eyes and actually feeling like you were there?

La Mode by GV Miao presents to you #Plukka #Press Event to celebrate its #HongKong launch. #Plukka is an infamous #American #jewelry brand best known for its #signature #BulletRing and alternative #design. In addition to the #BulletRing showcased at the event, the beautifully crafted Tornado #Ring and #EiffelTower #Ring truly stunned every single one of us, and equally got the attention they deserved.

Are you ready? Enjoy watching my debut video on #YouTube and get swooned over all the glittering #jewelry and gorgeous #designs. Let me fly you to the moon!

PS If you prefer seeing the pictures, here are some best shots.

Though it has been a year, I got the chance to watch the official video of #Ukraine #InternationalFashionDays 2012 (#IFDs, Kiev) just now. It brought back my every single memorable moment of this once in a life time #fashion experience, and I feel like it is worth sharing with my dear followers.
Reputable #designers, #fashion #editors and #fashionistas from all over the world including myself as the only #blogger based in #HongKong being invited who attended the 5-day event were interviewed by #FashionOne. Click http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2_2ffDeWcE&feature=player_embedded to see the full video. You’ll find me right at the beginning conducting the master class and from 8:00 onwards in front of the camera. Thank you once again, the founders of #Ukraine #InternationalFashionDays 2012, Ukrainian #designer duo Myroslava & Orysia Zubachyk (Myroslava/Orysia) for such an unbelievably amazing project. I hope we’ll catch up soon in #Europe.

My new #blog post entitled “Interview with #YeashinKim for #Yeashin – A Rising Star from #Korea” is now up on La Mode by GV Miao #fashion #blog:

Do you know her or at least have heard her name, #YeashinKim, a young UK based #Korean #designer? If you don’t, I suggest you better start getting to know her now as she is bound to be a star. At just 24-years-old, she has launched her own brand under her name and been invited to participate in major #runway shows and exhibitions for the best up-and-coming #design talents in #Europe including Ones To Watch at Fashion Scout London and Zip Zone Paris Fashion Tradeshow taking place during #London FashionWeek and #ParisFashionWeek respectively. In her final year of her studies at London College of Fashion, she was voted The Best Fashion Graduate by #VogueUK and won the WGSN Global Fashion Awards in the Most Creative Student Collection category.

Please Click http://la-mode-by.gvmiao.com/2013/05/interview-with-yeashin-kim-for-yeashin-a-rising-star-from-korea/ , view the full album and read my interview with #Yeashin to explore her unlimited #creativity. It’s quite an extensive post covering both #Yeashin’s Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter 2013 collections so make sure you don’t miss out. I would greatly appreciate it if you could leave a precious comment for this post on my #blog.

By the way, La Mode by GV Miao has got a brand new pattern and color theme. I appreciate your visit and tell me how you like it.

PS Thank you Goran Sidjimovski and Niccolo Montanari of #FierManagement (Berlin) for coordinating my interview with #Yeashin.

After weeks of rain comes sunshine! The moist air smells fresh and it’s a sure sign of #spring. One rare sunny weekend, two #bloggers went up the street to welcome the flower blooming season. Whether it be the #Australian #designer #SandraMotallebi’s #romantic #flowy Come Fly With Me Dress, #Cliché adorable floral iphone case and #accessories or the Plexi And Lace Earrings by #Maylily, the #Italian #vintage #accessory brand, they all seemed to exude the joy and celebrate the warmth of #spring.

Thank you Jin Wong, a gorgeous #fashion #blogger at #RemedyRouge, also a #photographer for directing the shoot and sharing this cheery experience in words http://www.remedyrouge.com/2013/04/sandra-motallebi-beige-come-fly-with-me-dress.html. Jin explored another side of me through her lens. I never realized that my smiles could be as bright as #spring blossoms.
Credits also go to my #blog’s sponsors #SandraMotallebi and #Maylily. I couldn’t possibly do it without their support.

WITH GREAT HONOR, EXCITEMENT AND JOY, I ANNOUNCE THE OFFICIAL #COLLABORATION KICK-OFF BETWEEN LA MODE BY GV MIAO AND #VIPEXCLUSIVEFASHION (THE US):

I don’t need to be a fortune teller to predict that 2013 is a good year, I know it will be a breakthrough year of my #blogging career. With great honor, excitement and joy, I announce the official #collaboration kick-off between La Mode by GV Miao and #VIPExclusiveFashion by #TerranceShaw for their unprecedented large-scale #fashion project in the US – 7-7-7 Fashion Series 2013 (7 is a good number, it means completion and perfection in the Bible) with 7 #fashion shows literally taking place all year round in 7 large US states. Firstly launched in Miami, FL in March, then followed by a monthly show in Los Angeles, CA in May, Washington, DC in June, Dallas, TX in July, Atlanta, GA in August, and Las Vegas, NV in September, 7-7-7 Fashion Series will round off with the finale #fashion show in New York City in October and the VIP Annual Fashion Industry Awards & Recognition Ball in the capital. How can you not get stunned with such a huge content? La Mode by GV Miao waves to our fans in New York. I hope to meet you all in person at the wrap-up event.

Not only do 7-7-7 Fashion series serve as a precious opportunity for talented up-and-coming #designers to demonstrate great #creativity without boundaries and showcase their #designs to the most influential people in the industry, but they also support philanthropic community cause charity organizations. By making a donation guests will be supporting all the charities affiliated with the 7-7-7 Fashion Series including local cancer foundations and sexual abuse counselling programs. La Mode by GV Miao gives unreserved support to #fashion for a good cause. Come join me and #VIPExclusiveFashion to watch top models catwalking the most glamorous shows while supporting charities – what more can you ask for? Stay tuned to our pages (http://lamodebygvmiao.tumblr.com/) and #VIPExclusiveFashion’s official website and keep your eyes open for all updates!

In ancient #China, the symbol of the #dragon represented the emperor’s imperial power and strength. In this #summer, the 5-clawed #dragon #motif can be found in #Emilio Pucci’s #shoes and #accessories #design majestifying its female wearers, as if to say #style is the ultimate power in the 21st century. Now watch us beautiful women fly!
