TCF Ep. 563 - Andria Lo & Valerie Luu

Chinatown Pretty was created by photographer Andria Lo and writer Valerie Luu, two friends who love dim sum and chasing after pretty poh pohs (grandmas).
 They started a blog after their personal project was featured as a story, Chinatown Sartorialist, on The Bold Italic.

For the story they pitched, they shot portraits and interviewed seniors in San Francisco Chinatown whose outfits reminded the pair of their grandmothers. The experience brought them so much joy and inspiration that they wanted to continue capturing their unique style and stories.
