	The Honolulu Advertiser \| Island Life
		So when I saw that Vivienne Tam, a fashion designer who marries Asian design motifs with a modern Western edge, had written a book called "China Chic," I had to read it.
		While much of the writing is first-person, including touching anecdotes of her childhood in China and Hong Kong, Tam conducted extensive interviews, publishing them verbatim in a question-and-answer format.
		Like her edgy, even shocking 1995 Mao dress depicting a photograph of the late Chairman Mao with a bee on his nose, Tam is more interested in telling the story of China than the story of Tam.
