Year of the Designer Rat

Check out this east and west fashion fusion – China-born, Hong Kong-raised, NY-based designer Vivienne Tam was asked to dress a very special rodent and his girl as they welcome the coming of this Lunar New Year. Strutting their best supermodel impersonation, Mickey will be wearing a bright red Mao suit and Minnie in her red cherry blossom dress.

Hong Kong Disneyland would need all the gimmicks they can get as they suffer a second year of crappy crowd attendance. Soon, they might even throw in every famous Chinese celebrity for the cause like Jackie Chan, Jet Li, and could even create a Bruce Lee robot (for this, I will pay to go see.) Till then, count me out on being a patron.

Anyway, this would be an interesting year for us at The Bag Ladies and all of Asia. Warmest wishes to our friends and family and have a safe fire-crackerific Rat New Year! And oh, Chairman Mao says waddup too.
