Grace Lee, one of the senior artists here in Canada, painted the famous red chinese dress at the event in Shanghai, I think it was last year. I had the pleasure of having her in my class at the MAC update training last week. Wow! Talk about talent. I wonder if she is also working on this event.

that's some talent right there...

I wish MAC would open a free standing store in China. Did you guys know there's only one counter in the whole Chinese mainland? Thankfully it's in Beijing (where I live part time) but it's in this really crowded mall and I hate going there! If MAC opened a free-standing store I'd be

mac online: chinese dress?
Did anyone else notice the "Chinese Dress" bit on the maccosmetics.com splash (opening) page? What is this about? When I click it, it re-routes to the main page.


hmm.. another y-kei thing?

Talking chinese dress
I went to the site..and I remember this link being on the site once before and not working. Well it seems to be working now. It's when they painted the girl's bodies. I remember seeing it on a video..right?

Chinese Dress
I saw the Chinese Dress pictures on the MAC website...and they are truly amazing. What artistry! I was wondering, though...do you think they'll come out with a Chinese Dress color story/promotion? I would love to see a collection on this....

Chinese Dress was when MAC senior artists painted traditional chinese dresses on models for the launch of the MAC Shanghai store. They also recreated MAC chinese dress for the launch of Olympus Fashion Week in the spring. To my knowledge there will be no collection/color story/promotion.

Chinese Dress coming soon????
I got an email from MAC PRO today about Chinese Dress...it showed a bunch of painted models, and said 'coming to select locations in 2006). What does this mean? Has anybody actually 'seen' this? Is it a collection, or just art???
