The YEAR of the DRAGON

2012-01-19T19:10:00.002+08:00

According to the Chinese zodiac, Dragon's influence inspires passion, drive, and daring. Dragon year is an excellent time to start a business, get married, have a child, or take incredible risks. Golly what shall we do.... I know, Mr Dim lets get you a wife! None the less celebrations kick off this Saturday 22nd January at midnight.

This zodiac sign symbolises great auspicious powers and hope this luck will be shared with you all.

Keeps going and going...

2012-01-19T19:03:00.002+08:00

Ms Gow's mother kindly passed on a message to Ms MARY CHING with a comment that went something like this,' She is like a Energizer Bunny and just keeps going'. Well in retaliation to these remarks Ms MARY CHING wanted to unleash her inner self and become the Energizer Panda. Her response is... Dear Ms Gow's Mum, ' I may have the energy of the Duracell Bunny but the Playfulness of the Panda.'

Daniella's Birthday

2012-01-19T18:49:00.002+08:00

Gorgeous Daniella celebrated her birthday at the MARY CHINGdom. Its a fun story as she originally had called Ms MARY CHING asking to host 30 guests. Well that number grew to more than 60 in the course of 4 days... in order to make it a fantastic one we decided to have all the guests on the 3rd floor studio. Thanks to a local chinese restaurant, 4 wait staff, 4 ayi's (helpers) and alot of preparation beforehand we were able to all enjoy a fantastic evening. Ms MARY CHING was once told that since the warehouse had been empty for more than 10 years, it was a good idea to bring as many people to the space as possible to bring good energy, aka Phi energy. In good faith she has stuck to her mission with a crossing of a T and dotting of the I's and in the last months welcomed many a guest.

ZHAN WANG shows at UCCA

My Personal Universe is Zhan Wang's interpretation of the big bang, a cosmological model that explains the early development of the Universe. He may have been crticised for always doing the same type of work, however it remains powerful, thoughtful and yet somehow humorous. The fact that he blew up a hugemongous rock in slow motion with state of the art film equipment with leading Chinese film directors does not necessarily leave room for light heartiness. We loved his work and filled us with inspiration.

The Calligraphy Master

2012-01-19T18:29:00.002+08:00

Where does the story begin? Ms MARY CHING invited a Shanghainese feng shui master in to bring fortune to business and the studio. The results seem to be working with immediate business developments steaming ahead and product developments under way. Its an exciting year ahead for the MARY CHING team so we thank the Feng shui master for recommending us to put up a Chinese proverb,'紫气东来' which means, after the rain the sun comes. Actually the literal translation is Purple rain!!! Who knew the powers of the CHINGdom attracted not only purple but all sayings related to purple. Ms MARY CHING commissioned a Calligraphy Master to carefully stroke the proverb to which it has since been framed and proudly hangs in the studio today.

Guardian of the CHINGdom Part II

2012-01-19T18:23:00.002+08:00

Ms MARY CHING was recently looking through her camera and came across photos of the Guardian of the CHINGdom before he found his throne. Here he aka Prince, was a mere leopard in the local market of PAN JIA YUAN in Beijing. A common playground of Ms MARY CHING, whom loves to find treasures such as our now Prince. I think if Ms MARY CHING had a reason to live at this market, she absolutely would.

'I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it' Mae West.

2012-01-19T18:12:00.002+08:00

No doubt in keeping with our FORBIDDEN OPULENCE theme, MARY CHING was hard at work orchestrating the new slipper lookbook. We called in friends Kate Noble for make up and hair, Evelina Gospodinova as our photographer and David worked happily as our stylist. Lingerie was called in from Lelo and La Perla... thank you very much. We used the CHINGdom studio as the background and the rest was magic... The final images are to follow but this is to wet the appetite in the meantime.

Ms MARY CHING's Great Wall

2012-01-19T18:01:00.002+08:00

We may have A Great Wall of MARY CHING at our HQ but we will not forget its origin. The Great Wall measure 8,851.8 km and spans from Shanhaiguan to the edge of Inner Mongolia. On this spectacular winter day MARY CHING climbed the wall and happily tobogganed herself down. A rather classy act we would all agree, no less with her pink candy floss jacket in tow!

The MC ARMY

2012-01-17T12:47:00.016+08:00

We are delighted to introduce you to our very own Xian Soldier. General Ching of the CHINGdom (minus his broken arm which will be repaired in the New Year) . He is the commander and officer of the MARY CHING girls. Since it's the Chinese New Year holidays here we are a full house and have welcomed 14 design interns and have a further 12 ladies and gentlemen in the studio. In grant total we are 26, hence the MARY CHING army.

We wanted to share our hectic schedule, when the amount of work gives you no chance but to keep your sit warm! We are busy redesigning packaging, medallion logos and products.

It is a cool, fun and friendly but serious atmosphere where even General Ching has work to do! No less to protect us.

The Guardian of the Chingdom

2011-12-28T19:33:00.002+08:00

The leopard is the smallest cat of the four 'big cats', the other being the tiger, lion and jaguar. We, at MARY CHING design studio are thrilled to introduce Prince MARY CHING (in honour of Prince Eric a personal friend of Ms MARY CHING) He arrived yesterday from BEIJING and was a generous Christmas present weighing over 15kgs of solid bronze. Since Mr Dim Sum is the guardian of the Stiletto, I present the guardian of the ChingDOM.

The Shoe King visits Shanghai

2011-12-28T19:10:00.002+08:00

Mr Louboutin threw a birthday bash in celebrating his birthday at the Waldorf Astoria this weekend. We were delighted to attend and celebrate with him, gorgeously clad transvestite dancers, neon birdcages and no less than a shoe box shaped birthday cake. Happy Birthday Christian from the 'Louboutin of China' aka MARY CHING.

Women on Top

2011-11-23T23:50:00.000+08:00

Shanghai welcomed the Financial Times, FT Women at the Top 2011 conference and dinner, designed to once again bring together world-class thought leaders and decision makers to discuss the role of women in business, their contributions as drivers of development and growth, and their inspirational legacy as innovators and influencers in the workplace and beyond. All very fancy for Ms MARY CHING however she seized the moment and enjoyed the inspiration leaders share their journeys. A surprise attendance by Imelda Marcus herself, tickled some feathers of the audience but considering she had a shoe addiction unrelated to her political standing, we felt we needed to include a reference to her 2700 pairs of shoes! Any girls upmost dream.

Back to a serious note, this prestigious event was timed to coincide with the announcement and publication of the FT 2011 Top 50 Women in World Business Ranking and will celebrate, in particular, the women who drive business in China. Luxury in China may be a popular topic but seems Women in Business in China is hot on its tail.

"Bailey's Douban" The Perfect Place

2011-11-23T23:48:00.001+08:00

Most of us know Bailey's, a creamy irish whiskey that is a touch of heaven (at least for Ms MARY CHING) but we might not be aware of Douban.com. Launched in 2005, is the largest Chinese website devoted for movies, books, and music reviews. It had about 30 million registered users in 2010 and as of May 2011, it ranks the 134th most popular website worldwide. It seems Ms MARY CHING was invited to be part of this Bailey's campaign.

The mission was for fun, fearless, forward thinking and fashionistas. The day was held at a movie studio in the heart of Shanghai and the campaign will launch December 2nd 2011. You will find us on douban.com and touch media in all taxis of this city!

Dolce & Gabbana in Shanghai

2011-11-23T23:46:00.000+08:00

Yet again Shanghai had a reason to welcome a glass of Champagne with a dinner hosted by Su Mang, Editor in Chief of Harper's BAZAAR China for Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. The Dress code was Shanghai Glamour and Su Mang certainly raised the standard looking absolutely radiant. A selected 80 VIP guests were treated to a 14 course feast of four season appertiser, jasmine duck, lobster, abalone, dan dan noodles not to mention the other mouth watering dishes. Lan Club was the chosen venue that encapsulated the tone and elegant of Dolce Gabbanna themselves. Ms Mary Ching sipped her rose Pom till the stars came out.

Another evening bites the dust!

Where else in the world could you possibly gather fashion people, art dealers, photographers, financiers, a money laundering expert and even a pet shop investment researcher (really!) around one table.

Well done Ms MARY CHING!

Hey Hey! Sorry for the recent lack of posts but Ms Chings has been quite busy these past weeks. In the whirlwind of work, dinner and parties, Ms Ching has met an interesting character. Let us introduce you Alex M., a very talented graphic designer. Mr. M has created a world of colours, fun and sexuality. Take a look at one of his cartoon!

MARY CHING's top 5 of Spring/Summer 2012

2011-10-18T14:18:00.002+08:00

Paris Fashion has come to an end and it is now time to take a look at the trends that shaped the runways of SS12.

White Out: White was presented in all forms: sheer, crisp, lace and everything in between.

Transparency: transparent vinyl ruled the runway and was interpreted into different shoes.

Sorbet Pastels: sorbet shades were found in every shade of the raibow.

Tangerine: Vibrant orange invaded the runways once again.

Power Florals: super bright florals could be found everywhere: tops, pants, skirts, bags!

The Spring/Summer fashions of 2012 are vibrant and fun! It’s now time for Shanghai Fashion Week what it’s got!

More to come…

2011-10-18T14:05:00.002+08:00

Last Friday, Mary Ching hosted a dinner on the eve of the first published book of Winnie the Pooh in 1926.

Long before Walt Disney turned Pooh and his friends into movie stars, A.A Milne decided his son’s, Christopher Robin, stuffed animals would make the perfect bedtime story. 85 years later, Winnie the Pooh has become a superstar and marked all of our childhoods with his obsession with honey! Haha!

The dinner party was a success! Guests we’re particularly attracted to the new hat lighting and had lots of fun playing around with it!

Alice proudly showing off her Mary Ching Anaïs!

Thanks Winnie the Pooh for great fun with great people!

London Fashion Week has just ended and it seems a new fashionista emerged on the front row. Let me introduce you Lenny, Stylist’s fashion week pug!

Throughout the week, Lenny was out and about rendering his views and thoughts direct from LFW.

Lenny quickly gained the attention of designers and celebrities with his style.

Poor Dim Sum is red of jealousy!

Karine is from Canada and graduated this year from the London College of Fashion with a degree in Fashion Management. She is also fluent in French.

Sarah is German and is studying Economics at University. She is in Shanghai for 3 weeks.

The China Craze

2011-09-20T13:50:00.002+08:00

A new trend is gaining popularity within China’s super rich. The Chinese upper-class are spending huge amounts of money to transform their pet into a wild animal or to dye them in crazy colours.

What do you prefer?

Panda

Tiger

Or camel?

Dim Sum prefers to be a tiger! Rawwwr!

Furrrrr

2011-09-15T18:31:00.002+08:00

The latest editions of fashion magazines are starting to feature the new trends for AW11/12. One of our favourite trends featured this season is fur, which is a perennial favourite of Ms Mary Ching, and is key for this season.

Fur was featured heavily in the AW11/12 shows at Louis Vuitton, Armani, Burberry and Gucci.

This trend is the epitome of luxury and opulence which, as you know, is the signature of Ms Mary Ching. With the weather in Shanghai still far too hot to be contemplating fur coats this autumn, you can wear this trend by treating yourself to a pair of Mary Ching’s from our upcoming A/W ‘11 collection.

Handsome Girl

2011-09-15T17:58:00.003+08:00

Featured in the likes of Vogue and W and now the muse of Karl Lagerfeld, there is no doubt Freja Beha Erichsen seduced the fashion world with her boyish demeanour. Also known for her 16 tatoos, Freja has set the trend for careless, girl meets boy attitude.

In their August issue, Vogue China has paid tribute to this, shall I say, iconic model.

We’re loving the loose t-shirts topped with a plaid shirt and a black sequin jacket. Rock on!!

Happy Birthday Sally!

2011-08-02T13:23:00.004+08:00

Ms Mary Ching hosted her first successful dinner for her visiting parents in celebrating her Mum’s birthday in Shanghai. 28 guests were treated to The Great Wall of Mary Ching, dumplings, tofu, cold summer cucumber dishes and not to mention the little glasses full of fresh Jasmine. Parents were approving and enjoyed meeting the gang. Not to mention several compliments to the menu which although Ms Mary Ching only wishes she could take credit, for the hours of preparation, we have to thank our local restaurant down the room. We are all sure there will be many more dinners like this to follow. Mr Dim Sum get ready for more sleepless nights!

The other star of the day Mr THUNDER THE PANDA!!

The adventures of Tiebet (Dege)

2011-08-02T12:40:00.004+08:00

Kindly invited by Ms Pearl Lam and her entourage, Ms Mary Ching managed to escape for a long weekend to find her enlighten. The actual Living Budda, (the Chinese recognized Dalai Lama) invited us to visit his home in Dege, 5 km from the Tibetan boarder. We were escorted for 18 hours each way by the China police squad, to insure our safety and welcome d by lavish Tibetan banquets of Yurt milk, meat and cheese. Chocolate Lama whose nickname was given to him after he consumed a whole box of godiva chocolates alone, guided us through spiritual temples, chanting ceremonies on mountain tops at 5000km altitude (yes there were bleeding noises and oxygen tanks), a traditional printing house not to mention several holy mountains. We learnt so much from these Lama’s that although it was a quick escape it will be remembered and held as treasured moments for a lifetime.

The making of The Great Wall of MARY CHING!

2011-08-02T11:59:00.003+08:00

Brand Fury, Tommie Tam our lovely and very talented graffiti artist has now officially christened the dinning room wall as; ‘The Great Wall of MARY CHING!’ After a 2 day, 12 hour spurt of creativity we are almost there. More work will follow at the end of the month to finalise the wall of art. Which includes our very own panda, purple xian soldier, Mr Dim Sum of course and a fire blowing dragon.
Other street artist Smear contributed to the living room, and Tsol tagged his name in the dining room. We have ordered the chairs, finished the dinning table and ready to host a MARY CHING dinner party.
See the developments unfold…

Miu Miu hits the town!

2011-08-02T11:45:00.003+08:00

Following their big bang in Beijing, socialites, journalists, models and friends migrated to Shanghai for its follow up. Sadly unable to make the event in BJ, Ms Mary Ching took her girls along to the Miu Miu Fashion Show, hosted at Park Hyatt last week. Lavish fashion shows and presentations seem to be of regular occurrence here in the city that never sleeps. The set was breathtaking and a true reflection of the brands DNA. I hear it was designed by Hollywood set designer Carl Sprague. Champagne followed throughout the sit down dinner. Hats off to Ink Pak media whom put together the show. It was a triumph.

Oh La La!!!!

2011-07-14T11:35:00.003+08:00

Alison with other lecturer Louise (pink) and Zhuzhu (yellow)

On 5 July, the British Chamber's Women in Business focus group and the Shanghai Female Entrepreneurs Association (SFEA) gathered over 50 women (almost 60 women) for the "Women in Business Shanghai Entrepreneurs Dinner" at Cristal with FOOTWEAR AND ACCESSORIES brand designer Alison Yeung, founder of MARY CHING, who began the night with her own personal journey from corporate world to entrepreneurship.
Slippers

After completing a BSc in business management at London's King's College and a BA in fashion communication and promotion at Central St. Martins, Yeung worked as an investment analyst with a focus on fashion at private equity firm W Investments. Drawn to Shanghai in 2006 and inspired by her past experience with leading designers including Hussein Chalayan, Ozwald Boateng and Julian McDonald, Yeung decided to indulge her passion for design. With just a few simple shoe designs and the idea of blending Asian elements with vintage fashion to create a "Made in China, CREATED IN SHANGHAI" high-end footwear brand, she soon attracted the attention of a local journalist who wrote a story about her work. "Suddenly I had all this press attention," says Yeung, "but then I realised I had nothing to sell!"
Success

Yeung quickly set about producing a tangible product. "The hardest thing was finding a supplier to provide high-quality shoes," she recalls. While visiting factories in Hangzhou, Yeung eventually found a slipper manufacturer willing to look at her designs. With no slipper designs to speak of, Yeung pulled out a notepad on the spot, drew 10 rough sketches and handed them over to the manufacturer, who looked at them and replied, "Come back in 10 days." Ten days later, after collecting 10-15 pairs of sample slippers, Yeung was invited to a dinner party hosted by Pearl Lam, the founder of Contrasts Gallery (now Pearl Lam Galleries). A casual conversation with one of the attendees began with the question, "So what are you doing here in Shanghai?" and ended with all of Yeung's sample slippers being sold to women at the dinner party. Amazed by her sudden success, Yeung immediately went back to the factory the next day and ordered 100 more pairs. "But then the question was, what do I do with them?" says Yeung.
Spirit

"This is where entrepreneurship comes in -- sometimes you just need to follow your instincts." Contacting a former intern of hers back in London for assistance in tracking down some leads, Yeung soon established a connection with the Shangri-La, which became the first retailer(luxury outlet) for MARY CHING brand slippers. Alison opened the MARY CHING Studio in 2008 and now boasts stockists in London, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Shanghai and Beijing. (Mary Ching's high-end customers include Cathay Pacific and the Mandarin Oriental hotel chain's boutiques) When asked how she suggests an entrepreneur should gauge their success, Yeung responds that the measure for success is individual and based entirely on what one aims to achieve. "It didn't necessarily happen the way I'd planned," says Yeung. "I wanted to do shoes, but instead I started out with slippers and ALSO do shoes. You have to be flexible."

Yeung's reflections were followed by an enthusiastic round of questions and discussion among those present, as well as thanks and closing remarks by (the) Chair of the Women in Business focus group Luise Schafer and Ms. Zhu Zhu, head (Vice Chair) of the SFEA.

THE MOVE

2011-06-22T17:27:00.002+08:00

Adieu old tiny shoe box studio - Bonjour new stylish warehouse studio.
It’s our time to shine.

MARY CHING is in a lot of transition:
our office is moving (don’t worry French concession lovers, our shop remains at Ferguson Lane!!) but as business is growing, we need more space to make your dream like shoes come to reality!

Here we share with you the before and after photos. More to come...

Use your immagination!

Chingdom – here we come!

THE CHINA DOLL

There must have been some cosmic sexual synergies as our Innocent Temptress Ms XiTing made it into the next Sephora's campaign. Thank you to Stephen Huljak www.stephenhuljak.com for these utterly playful yet provocative images… keep your eyes open for more.

THE TRADE FAIR PART II – MODE SHANGHAI

2011-04-14T11:31:00.003+08:00

Politics in Shanghai sees a fight for whom runs Shanghai Fashion week; hence the two trade fairs and multiple fashion shows. As a designer, we are caught in the middle and to make all parties happy, attended both trade fairs! Only in China might this occur… rather than complain we bow courteously and thank them for a great opportunity for exposure. Thank goodness our Spring Summer feathered Ms Xi-Ting makes any girl smile.

THE JEWELS, HANDBAGS AND WATCHES

2011-04-12T09:50:00.002+08:00

The MARY CHING girls went to check out what Folli Follie had up their sleeves at their launch. With Gaile Lai starring as its global brand ambassador, Folli Follie launched their 2011 global brand campaign at M1NT, Shanghai. In the hopes of appealing to a wider audience, Gaile Lai depicted three different personas in the campaign: the ‘’Classic Gaile’’, the ‘’Trendy Gaile’’ and the ‘’Rock Gaile’’. Set against a backdrop of runway shows, brunches and powder rooms, Gaile is accessorized with a variety of jewels, handbags and watches from Folli Follie’s unlimited collections.

We love the imagery of the new campaign… us girls can never say no to more jewels!
