About a year after I blogged about how much I want to own this specially designed Diana F+ by Dorophy Tang (read about it here<\/a>), my dream finally came true with the newly launched Qing Hua Diana F+. Here’s a photo of the original one that I drooled over for months …<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

A classsic, ain’t it? I saw the newsletter from Lomography and was so excited I could scream but when I opened up the link … I realised something was wrong. This ain’t exactly the one I wanted! Argh! So what’s the difference?<\/p>\n

The mud! The soil! What happened to the cool … super cool … muddy\/soiled look? Why do I get a feeling Lomography might sell the mud\/soil as an accessory later? \ud83d\ude41 Dorophy … if you ever do come across this blog entry of mine … can you please make another one of the original one for me? \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

\"\"The Qing Hua Diana F+ by Dorophy Tang<\/em><\/p>\n

Designer and illustrator Dorophy Tang has become the latest to add her unique touch to the Diana F+. This special edition reflects Tang\u2019s signature style, which mixes vintage elements and traditional Chinese influences \u2013 known as Qing Hua Ci. The stunning Diana F+ that Dorophy Tang customised as a one-off for the Detrich Collection & Diana Vignettes Exhibition impressed us so much that we knew we had to ask her to create a version that could be made available for everyone! The package also features 4 of Dorophy Tang\u2019s Shopping Baby illustrated postcards. Tang\u2019s trademark Shopping Babies are cute and ironic little fashionista characters, which add that extra something special to this collectible Diana F+ edition.<\/em><\/p>\n

Dorophy Tang has been causing a stir in the design world for some time. She is a Hong Kong born and based product designer and illustrator, who\u2019s famed for her signature style, which is inspired by Qing Hua Ci \u2013 traditional Chinese art and craftsmanship. She loves to mix up this vintage look with modern elements. As well as making a name for her designs, Dorophy Tang\u2019s Shopping Baby Illustrations have become well known and loved for their light-hearted parody of trend culture. To date she\u2019s collaborated with names such as 1000% Be@rbrick, Adidas and the Hong Kong based City Magazine.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
