SIMON YAM FASHION UPDATE

As last night's ELECTION 2 reception devolved into a karaoke free-for-all (who knew Lam Suet had such a sweet set of pipes?) Simon Yam took issue with his "Worst Dressed" award. I would now like to officially change that and award him "Most Philosophically Dressed Award". Apparently, and I missed this because I neither speak nor understand Cantonese, when Yam got up onstage with Yasuaki Kurata to introduce Lau Kar-leung, he spoke extensively about his jeans. He said that they represented the way Lau Kar-leung works: they're classic and timeless, and you can wear them over and over again, even until they're worn out, but that just makes them more comfortable. Then he said that whereas it usually took him a few months to break in a new pair of jeans, these had been worn out and broken in after only two days of training with Lau Kar-leung.

I did not know this, but now I do. And knowing is half the battle.
