Rui Liu at London Fashion Week

er Styles Rocker: (exults, rhythmically) As I indulge in the surreal of that corrosively cool London Fashion Week fedora, by Azuki my imagination runs, understandably wild...

https://www.facebook.com/SidewalkDarlings/

er Styles Rocker: (continues the relentless onslaught)....Clearly, it’s from another universe. Apart from confessing that its MASTERFUL charm takes my breath away, what can I say, Oh my gosh, I know, I simply adore the aesthete as much as I enjoy Sleeping With Sirens - The Strays

Kalafina: (explains, whisperingly to RUI) As fedora ambassador to the wider universe, he exults, unfailingly and illuminatingly, in the chic charm of an outfit that is completed with a fedora hat. www.allthatrageseries.blogspot.com

www. twitter.com/zokayakamara

The model walking the sidewalk at London Fashion Week is RUI, who shares tea. You may share in your effortlessly elegant, muse worthy style by coupling a raucous, runway fedora by Azuki, with & Other Stories shoes, Eine skirt, Rejina Pyo skirt and coat.

 RUI: Thank you (smiles with inordinate pride) www.instagram.com/SidewalkDarlings

 er Styles Rocker: So what was your inspiration behind this fashionable, 21st century aesthete you are flaunting today at the bi-annual sartorial showcase; London Fashion Week?

RUI: Well, the inspiration coming from a VERY powerful woman

er Styles Rocker: (wonders ALOUD, if she’s referring to; [in no particular order]  Karen O, Alanis Morissette, Beth Ditto, Hayley Williams of Paramore fame, Lzzy Hale of Halestorm fame, Avril Lavigne, cRIStina Scabbia, Doro Pesch, Avril Lavigne)

RUI:…starting with the shirt, which is from…

 er Styles Rocker: Spell it out, please

 RUI: (spells) E I N E

er Styles Rocker: Stylish. er Styles Rocker: Oh my word! Your outfit; EVERY single aspect, is absorbingly, on point (Rui spins around proudly, to FLAUNT the sprezzatura aesthetic). I’m super impressed; with the effort you have made in this immaculate dress sense, particularly for London Fashion Week....

.....Needless to say, that fedora is the bed rock. Like Revolution Radio; it’s loud, brash, audacious and bold yet relaxed. I can’t Falling Down, in its presence(sighs breathlessly) #ThisWildLife; I LOVE it. Just look how that riotous fedora hat over-intoxicates the #FashionWeek inner circle. If the establishment throws it out, that would be a thunderous mistake. Can you imagine the tremor? There would be an instantaneous clamour for it to be drafted back.

RUI:…It’s all about empowering women

er Styles Rocker: An admirable thrust. All self-respecting fashionistas should embrace

 RUI: …similarly the coat and the skirt is from Korea, erm…
