I love your blog. It shows that even in Hanoi there are trendy indie kids...
I am flying over to Hanoi in 2 weeks with my bf. Can you recommend any cool boutiques/vintage stores/jewellery stores/gallerys/bars etc that I should visit.
Hey. I looked at the booshop online and the mens stock looked kinda cartoonish/corny. I was more after stuff around the aesthetic of Ann Demuelemeester, Zambesi, Chronicles of Never, Ksubi etc. Not the same, but similar aesthetic-value. Who are the exciting designers/boutiques of Hanoi/Ho Chi Minh/Vietnam. Im sure there are some cool underground designers there?

ReplyDeletei dont think so i'm afraid. (you might only see some stuff with comme des garcons label :)
ReplyDeletethe hn fashion shops are packed with very very fast fashion made-in-china.
the better shops are rather ethnic-eco-neo romantic stuffs for women.
they are somewhat cool but not necessarily underground.
sorry to dissapoint.
