About Me
- Jules Shah
- I recently moved to Asia after 14 years in New York City, the latter part where I spent working as a producer of print photography and fashion shows while living on the Bowery (superb memories from 131). From South Asian origin, I started an Indian inspired clothing line with a dear friend, entitled Anize, produced in my home country. Through this experience, I became more involved with the fashion scene in Delhi and Mumbai. Now between Mumbai and Hong Kong, I aim to share with you my discoveries. Yes, China and India are largely seen as the producers of, but they are quickly becoming fashion inspirations for the west as well. All eyes are on Asia and I am excited to share with you why...

Yeah...I've bought many a seemingly fabulous item from this shop, but as much as it pains me to say it, I've come to the conclusion that most of the goods are duds. I pounced on the Balenciaga clutches and Lanvin bags last week only to discover after hours of internet research they were knock off's!!
Still very sad about this. I wish I could be proven wrong :(
Yep, as a recent customer, I have to agree with the above commenter. ALL the pieces in the shop are knockoffs. Some poor, some better. You can tell by a quick look inside the garment...Authentic Lanvin and Celine clothing are beautifully finished inside; you can find the real deal at IFC mall...the seams are immaculate, perfectly straight and all edges are turned in; no unfinished or messy bits. There is a reason that the real deal costs 1000+. Workmanship. If you don't have the money and you acknowledge that it's just a 'fun' purchase; then go for it. In Hong Kong and Shenzhen, you can have virtually any piece of clothing made...and they put the authentic looking label inside; so buyer beware and be educated. It is a fun shop although the shop girls can be abrupt and a bit mean.
