How amazing is this store? I feel like going out to Beijing just to check it out since I am a die-gard Burberry and anything that Christopher Bailey does. Love the models too. Especially the gorgeous Sebastian Brice aka my future husband. He just doesn't know it yet. Ha, loved this post!

All the best, Angel

Wow, that's quite the opening! Keane playing for the first time in China and of course feats and digital technology have become part and parcel of any designer event. Interesting the way fashion has embraced technology and made it artful.
