    China is always a great inspiration for designers. This year, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York features the exhibition “China: Through the Looking Glass”. For this upcoming Autumn/ Winter 2015 season, a lot of designers head East to China and other Asian countries and cultures. It seems that the influence of Asia has grown ...

  • Summer Thoughts Of Happiness

    500-Days-of-Summer-Joseph-Gordon-Levitt-Zooey-Dechanel-Film-Still-01

    Sometimes when I really need to crunch deadlines and be focused, it’s always nice to play a movie on repeat. What really works for me is, “500 Days of Summer” (2009) from the American film director Marc Webb, starring Zooey Dechanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The story line is touching and bittersweet. Boy who likes girl, to ...

    01 The-Great-Gatsby-Baz-Luhrmann-01

    It’s always a visual surprise, a film adaptation by Australian director Baz Luhrmann. For the 1974 movie adaptation of “The Great Gatsby” by American novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald (1925), director Jack Clayton chose actors Mia Farrow and Robert Redford for the leading parts of Daisy Buchanan and Jay Gatsby. The looks designed by Theoni V. Aldredge ...

  • Fashion Crush: Grease

    By Im Fong Liu Thursday, August 30, 2012 0
    grease-olivia-newton-john-john-travolta-movie-

    It was actually quite exciting, seeing my first movie in the cinema. The evening was so much fun, because I was with one of my sisters in Amsterdam. To be honest, very honest, the ultimate American High School romance "Grease" (1978) is still one of my all-time favourites. Fascinated by the 50’s looks of the  characters, ...

    While working on a styling project, the photographer and I talked about all sorts of music, one of my favourite subjects. I love to listen to music, from Brit pop to alternative bands, soul & jazz and singer songwriters. It is always nice to discover artists new to me. He mentioned the Shins and showed me ...

    Paris-Je-T-Aime-Film-Poster-2006

    Travel destinations I really love are big cities. To cite a film, I enjoy being in “Bright Lights, Big City”. A midweek London, Berlin or Paris to visit museums and go vintage or thrift shopping. Or go East to Hong Kong to visit family, eat a lot and almost 24/7 shopping fun. Every time I go ...

  • Asian Delight: In The Mood for Love

    By Im Fong Liu Thursday, November 1, 2001 0

    There is always something about the films from filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai, which gets me confused, loved up, totally mesmerized and leaves me wanting more and more. Let’s talk about his masterpiece "Fa Yeung Nin Wa" 花樣年華 or “In The Mood for Love” (2000). The film's original Chinese title, I am told, meaning "The Flowery Years”, or ...
