I am completely enamored by this rockabilly spread in Vogue China’s March issue. As a fan of Chinese culture and fashion I was not surprised at how easy it was for them to capture the essence of 1950′s fashion in this issue. Especially since rockabilly culture is a big phenomenon in China and Japan. Even the New York rockabilly scene is mostly Chinese and Japanese. I am pleased Vogue has shed light on a culture that is mainly on the west coast but is coming back full circle. From the looks of it, this spread had many influences. Wang Xiao is a bit of a wild card, reminiscent of bad girl Rizzo from grease, while Lily Zhi channels her inner Bettie Page in blunt cut short bangs and her soft yet radiant demure. Don’t get me started on Zhao Lei who is obviously channeling his inner Travolta in his Greaser ensemble, he looks smokin hot! I am drooling over the wardrobe and couldn’t be more satisfied with the styling work of Morgan Pilcher. See for yourself below!

About vintagevandalizm

My name is Jasmin Rodriguez also known as Vintage Vandalizm. I am an avid collector of vintage dresses and most people know me for my style. I am also an artist and I try to incorporate all aspects of art in everything that I do. I am an aspiring Designer and I plan to take over the fashion world with my limitless imagination. My whole philosophy on fashion has always been to think outside of the box. My style has no boundaries but I have commonly taken inspiration from the 40s, 50s, and 60s. I love the pinup culture and style however I love being versatile so most of the time I like to clash opposites, different genres of history and fashion and somehow, someway, I make it work. I think the world is too fixated on trends that people tend to forget who they are and what they like..I’m here to help you break free, to help you stand out, to help you create your own style, be your own person, and most importantly see fashion in a whole different light.

  2. I’m pretty sure that first black skirt with the blue ribbon trim is from the much-loathed Viktor & Rolf collection. I personally love it, though!
