Features: Bold and straightforward, witty and sharp. Watch international fashion critic June Yamada comment on the differences in East-West cultural etiquette. Master modern fashion etiquette standards to achieve excellent grace in social interactions! We all know that etiquette and fashion are important, but how important are they, and how can they truly help us in life? People often don’t fully grasp this. My idea is: etiquette, including fashion etiquette, is not something extraordinary—it’s just a kind of kindness you show to those around you.
Anyway, at least I’ve taken the first small step. If this book can become a small bridge connecting China and the world, breaking through the differences between Eastern and Western cultures, and bringing China closer to people around the globe, I would be deeply grateful. In these little stories, some readers may find certain parts a bit offensive—I hope you can forgive me with a generous heart. For the China I deeply love, I wrote this book with a heart full of love, and China has embraced me with its boundless tolerance, as well as the candid honesty of a foreigner. My dear China, I thank you. Here, I would like to dedicate this book to all the Chinese people, and to my lifelong mentor and dear friend—my mother, Mrs. Humiko Suzuki Shao. Every moment, she watches over me with a warm smile, in heaven.
