I spent a couple of days in Shanghai and was struck by how westernised and cosmopolitan the residents were. In the entire time I didn't come across a single person wearing traditional clothes, no matter what age or gender.
It was also fascinating to see the attention to detail and the accessorizing which most people seem to ensure, even though this was casual, street-style dressing. For me, this was the perfect amalgam of Street and Fashion Photography and I loved the energy and visuaility.Â
