Look at designer @allina.liu ’s work, and at first, you may not see the influence of her Chinese upbringing in monolithically white upstate New York. It’s not on the nose, like a Mandarin collar or dragon embroidery, but hints at a more subtle, unexpected element of being raised in a strict immigrant household: sexual repression. For @coveteur , I profiled @allina.liu , thanks @faith_xue .
For @archdigest : While carrying a Labubu as a bag charm has become a such a status symbol so influential that American designer @marcjacobs even carried a shrimp tempura one (still in its case) on a black Hermès Birkin 40 to his own 2026 runway show held at @nypl , there has always been something more inherently slow about getting furniture, about building a room, even if it’s for a collectible. link in bio.
