Pyjamas Outdoor – A Shanghai Fashion

28
May 2004


In Carefour Hypermarket.

The first time I saw someone wearing striped cotton pyjamas in a crowded street in the middle of the afternoon, it is hard not to do a double-take especially when that person is walking a dog, playing chess at the park or pedalling a bicycle. As you sitting in a bustling restaurant where every 20 person wandering by in their pyjamas, you will realise that stepping out in their comfies is one of the most enviably relaxed customs of this modern city.

Heck! That’s a 360 yuan pyjamas! This is my colleague response when you ask them about wearing pyjamas outdoor. The summer weather in Shanghai might explain it, but also the non-judgement attitude of Chinese people towards other people’s accoutrement. Sounds interesting to me…

Behind The Scene

My name is Bibi Liew and I'm a third-generation oversea Chinese. I'm born on the 3rd of November and that makes me a typical Scorpio. I stayed in several countries and ended up in Shanghai for reasons that are still not entirely clear to myself... I came to China and work as an Expatriate in 2004. I am an Interior Architect and design Hotels and Club Houses in many Cities in China. Ron and I will relocate to Nanchang in March 2010 and I'll be a WAHM!
