FASHIONISTA: Something borrowed, something new

Name: Li Sisi
Nationality: Chinese
Job: S.T.D. Promoter
Sisi is a lady who is prominent on our music scene. I was fortunate to meet her way back when, before she famous, before rock could roll in Shanghai. Now that she is known, her style denotes exactly what she is: a glamazon. But don't be fooled, she is no Penny Lane. This LOgO regular knows what’s what in local music. "I spend a lot of time traveling with bands around China," she says. "I like to know what’s happening within the music and culture scene." This attitude transcends to the clothes she wears. Not content to fit in with the norm, she would rather conjure up the spirit of fashion past, with most of her clothing (while it may look like it comes from H&M) springing from secondhand markets China-wide. The oh-so-hot fitted gray dress--not for the faint hearted--Comes from such a market in Xi'an, and you can see her tearing up the dance floor in said dress on any given night of the week. The tights, oh how we love the tights! These "roar-tastic" items were bought at Shanghai's own Email Fashion Plaza, but beware, they're only for those who can fight being tamed. She gets stopped everywhere she goes wearing them and seriously, why wouldn't she? The only sweet detail on this rock’n’roll gal is that little heart pendant lying flimsily around her neck, yet another spirit of fashion past-Ca gift from an ex who actually knew accessories (read: we all know why that broke up). For those who want to mimic, you can find something similar at PH7. Part chameleon, part fashionista, Sisi likes to keep everyone guessing with what she will wear next week.
