On The Street: Saigon

March 17, 2009


Our On The Street correspondent Jemma Desai has been snapping up some stylish looks as she travels across Asia. She just sent us this image of a young Vietnamese hipster wearing white plimsolls with leather shoe laces. Here's what she had to say about his look:

"I've always had a guilty pleasure for the classic Burberry check, but where I come from, oversized Burberry bags are strictly for Essex housewives and WAGs (Ed. trashy soccer player's wives). However, the streets of Saigon certainly know how to rework a lost look, as this guy proved while hanging out at the Saigon hipster hangout, Q Bar."
