Our dear fellow countrymen....

To our dear fellow countrymen:

Man Yung and I are chinese, and we like being chinese. We are all for freedom of fashion. And we are all for celebration of our "chinese-ness".

We see certain fellow countrymen in the milonga wearing "chinese fashions" like the lovely silk shirt pictured here. Nothing wrong with that. But don't you think dressing like a chinese waiter from the 50's is just a tad too conservative? If you want to make a statement celebrates your chinese-ness, you should make it loud and clear. Can we make some recommendations?







How about dressing like Bruce Lee?

There's nothing that says "Hong Kong" and "Kung Fu" louder than
fashion inspired by Bruce Lee!









Perhaps you want to be known as a "lover" and not a "fighter". Can we recommend a full set of traditional chinese bridegroom wear, complete with heavily veiled bride/tanguera and attendants in tow? Not only do you look very amorous, with all that red, "double happiness" and other symbols of prosperity and good fortune, your outfit is also very lucky as well as fashionable!




If your ultimate goal is to look like the tango guru (chinese flavour) you think you are (don't be shy, you can't deny it!), I don't think our previous recommendations would quite fit the bill for you.

Here's one wise chap, and he had lots of followers. There's nothing like dressing like a chinese sage to attract a devoted and adoring following - it worked for Confucius, it'll work for you!
