Since last week was fashion week, there were plenty of stylish looking people on the street. It was fun to just walk up to people and ask for a snapshot (something that I typically wouldn’t do). Surprisingly, everyone was really obliging and nice! I was sitting on the subway and noticed a well-dressed man and thought – this guy must work in fashion! I really liked his accessories (check out his cuff!) and style, so I approached him and we chatted. My fashion radar was correct, Bounkhong Kignavong, originally from Laos, is a textile and shawl designer (www.laodesignonline.com). He’s wearing one of his designs!
