Tao Okamoto as Tina Chow in this month's Paris Vogue…it's hard to find anyone as beautiful as Tina was but Tao makes a wonderful doppelgänger.
I was so happy to see a tribute to Tina…she will always be my number one style icon.
Here is a collage I made of some photos of her.
Thank you to everyone who has shared their pictures of Tina!
Must run…I have a plane to catch soonl. I'll be in New York for three days and Paris for three days. Very exciting things await me, I am so nervous right now.
TTYS xo Jane

I just wrote a rather long comment about the general beautiful-ness of this shoot, and it didn;t seem to show up!
I basically said how amazing I thought these images were, and what a style icon Tina Chow is. Love that collage.
Inspiring post.

I’m sure the character of Josie in Twin Peaks is modeled after her…
I have to find a pic! Do you know what I’m talking about…?
Linnea says
If you find yourself in need of respite during your trip to Paris, visit le Jardin du Luxembourg on la Rive Gauche: the leaves may be changing now, and it should be beautiful. Rive droite, le Centre Culturel Suedois is a haven in the Marais: perfect caffe latte and bites to eat.
The Voguette says
gosh she is absolutely stunning. Tao actually looks so much like her!
these pics are phoenemenal, I can’t wait to see it in person!

You were gorgeous as usual !
Enjoy your trip and I hope you’ll buy new shoes !
Edwina Bulfrage says
Ah! I read in one of your previous blogs about her and saw the picture where she is applying makeup in a bus or something? She seems absolutly incredible and I think she suits you as a style icon. Where did you find out about her? How do people know about these amazing women who existed in a time that isn’t now? Looking forward to your next post xxx

There’s also a lovely write up on Tina in this month’s American Vogue, which you must check out.

I’ve been a fan of Tina Chow since I was a teen, over twenty five years ago.
I remember Ted Muehling showed some of her jewelry work right after she passed. I’m still kicking myself for not buying her chunky bracelets!
ps- it would be great to see you engaged in something meaningful like the Peace Corps or Docteurs Sans Frontiers
