@_liushin makes looking cool look easy
by Hugh O'Malley, Beauty Photographer and Videographer based in Shanghaii made up my little back story for her. she’s the boss of a fashion company, a plucky startup. she’s tough as nails – you don’t want to fuck with her – but if you’re having a bad day, she’s actually super sweet and supportive. like the mom you never had. am I wrong?

He’s from the middle of Sanya island but has been in Shanghai for about 8 years. Looking forward to seeing you at the next fashion week, lexi.
by Hugh O'Malley, Beauty Photographer and Videographer based in ShanghaiA huge thanks to my partner in crime during fashion week. hook ups to all the best shows and vip areas and spotter of the well dressed. Encyclopedic knowledge of KOL’s, Social Media, PR, pasta sauces and pistachio nuts. Looking forward to the next one, Ambra! thanks for your generosity and all the insights. I’ve learnt a lot from you!
by Hugh O'Malley, Beauty Photographer and Videographer based in Shanghaiit’s a real scrum at xintiandi but sometimes you can find moments of calm amidst the chaos
by Hugh O'Malley, Beauty Photographer and Videographer based in Shanghaiit’s really refreshing to see the diversity of styles at fashion week. even at the high end shows you see people pushing the boundaries and producing unique combinations. of course there are more risks being taken at labelhood but xintiandi has its fair share of creativity too.
by Hugh O'Malley, Beauty Photographer and Videographer based in ShanghaiI met Well at Labelhood. She’s been in Shanghai for a few months. She’s originally from Taiwan and is a dancer. She showed me a few clips of her choreographing dance classes – really slick stuff. We talked about working together at some point. She’s such a lovely person I hope we can collaborate.

by Hugh O'Malley, Beauty Photographer and Videographer based in Shanghaii’ve always enjoyed shooting at fashion week be it behind the scenes or street style photography. i’m looking forward to the next fashion week in October, meeting up with old friends and making new ones. and sure it’s exhausting while simultaneously fascinating. it’s always exciting experiencing creativity at the boundaries of what’s possible.
