Old western style clothes cap, Director Chou is very old fashioned

by kelvin@multistars - 7th December 2003

Jay's music is the target of the Chinese pop market, he, who loves beauty, has also played around with creativity in terms of clothing, combining elements of old fashion and youth, in addition he adds a cool cap, "Jay style" just like that has already become the target boys imitate the image of.

Jay's image has already broken away from the baseball cap and the hip-hop casual clothing, now his image has become very "old fashioned", a Burberry old fashioned narrow version suit, jeans with the words "nan wu" written on with a writing brush and even the cap he must wear when going out is no longer a baseball cap but changed to different types of caps collected and grandfather's cap. No matter if it's matching sports clothes or matching old-fashioned western style clothes, he is very cool and has the look.

Jay said: "Young people should not blindly chase after fashionable, you need to wear out your own individuality, only then is this diao!" Because the last album, for the first time the record company allowed him to do his own image, Jay didn't consult clothes magazines but instead he watched "Godfather", "Road to Perdition", etc...these old films to stimulate his inspiration for the image, shortly after he flew to his most beloved Japan, including Shimo-kitazawa, Omotesando, Shinjuku, Harajuka, ect...he bought all he wanted in one go! It was the first time the budget didn't have an upper limit, he bought without his style being limited, but what he exchanged it for was exhaustion making him sigh: "In fact the work of specially coming to buy clothes is so tiring!"

When asked which brand Director Chou likes? He said: "None." Because he never asks the brand, as long as he sees something he likes, no matter the money, he will buy it. But the interesting thing is, originally he bought from Japan a good few bags of clothes, accessories, he very complacently asked the staff to guess which one was the most expensive?

Everyone originally guessed one shirt that looked to have a very good quality feel, who could have thought this shirt didn't cost more than TW$1000; a pair of shorts that looked weird, who could have thought he spent TW$30,000 to buy it, a work he is proud of, it immediately fell into disfavour, it couldn't see the light of day. The staff laughed saying: "He wears shorts, revealing hairy legs, can you see it?"

If you said Feng Fei Fei was the cap queen, then Jay must be the cap king, because as long as he hasn't sorted out his hair he will definitely wear a cap. In the past he loved to collect baseball caps, this past period he loves to wear caps and grandfather caps, actually his choice of caps is not limited, "As long as it's special, good looking, I will wear it, but I have to remind people with big faces, big heads, if you wear a fisherman's hat, it looks even more exposing of your weak points."
