Shanghai Fashion Week is here again! Riding the wave of its success last October, this twice a year fashion feast is celebrating its 15th anniversary and hoping to delivery a solid forecast for the 2009 Autumn / Winter fashion trends.
Apparently, Emma Pei has become Shanghai’s favorite model since she’s representing the city’s most important fashion celebration a second time in a row.
This spring’s Shanghai Fashion Week also claims bragging rights to an impressive roster of up-and-coming Chinese designers, most of whom were educated in top European fashion institutes and have already generated buzz within the European fashion industry.
