I Wanton That: Ally Capellino

An intern from Hong Kong gave me one of these tops, from Lee Kung Man Knitting Factory (HK) Limited, about 20 years ago and I still wear it, as the cotton is so fine. They’re unisex and made from Swiss cotton; you can get both short sleeve and long sleeve versions.

Last time I went to Hong Kong I took mine with me, thinking I might see if I could find another one. At a party I spotted someone wearing a customised one and asked where to find them. They are the same as the originals, so I bought as many as I could carry.
