Birthday boy

Ridley had his birthday last week, and Grandma Lu and I gave him some truly tailored shirts for the grand occasion. He has had shirts made at the South Bund Soft Spinning Market (aka fabric mart) which are quite lovely, but these boutiques are around the corner from us on one of the men's bespoke streets. I had heard that Mr. Chans is particulary good, so off we went. The measuring surely made us think they were thorough.

Getting everyone involved in this round!
This is the second fitting. We went in on a Tuesday, had the first fitting on Wednesday, (this fitting) and the shirts were done on Thursday. Amazing and perfect fits with the finest fabric.

Just in time to wear the shirts to Beijing for the Beijing literary festival at the BookWorm.
