There’s more to life than being ridiculously good looking! Join two stylish sisters (Lucy and Eva) as we explore traditional Chinese clothing, cultural appropriation, and the role of the Chinese market in modern fashion trends. We might not own any Balenciaga sneakers or custom made qipao, but we’ve got plenty of heart and bad jokes! Stick around after the break to hear our struggle about confusing Chinese family trees.
