China Fashion Syndrome

Back in October 2007, when Karl Lagerfeld and Silvia Venturini Fendi lit up the Great Wall of China with a glamorous fashion show, the two also did a photo editorial for Elle magazine called "China Syndrome".

Shot near the Olympic Village of Beijing, the photos showcased some of the designs created by Karl Lagerfeld for Fendi. The construction scenery is meant to evoke the rising Chinese fashion industry.
