Closet Case: Cyber Kung Fu Chef


>>A recent addition to my closet and favorite piece of the moment, is my Balenciaga white shirt.  It's mandarin collar and button closers on the right side of the chest, similar to Chinese cheongasm dresses, give it an Asian feel. The stark whiteness paired with the mandarin collar makes me think—chef! I've dubbed it my "cyber kung fu chef" shirt. It also has an unexpected textured padding from the neck to mid-torso which is what drew me to it.

Five Free Associations: padding, protection, combat, martial arts, karate kid
