T Singapore: The New York Times Style Magazine - January 2021

En este asunto

Our cover subject, Chinese actress Liu Shishi, is highly regarded in the Chinese film and television industry and recently made her return to acting in 2020. Read about how she approaches her roles and why she may be ready to act in another period drama in our cover story. Elsewhere in this issue, we look at the career of French-Georgian pianist Khatia Buniatishvili who has recently been named a Cartier ambassador. Read about how Buniatishvili combines her passions — providing for underprivileged youth and classical music — through her activism. For French actress Vanessa Paradis, getting dressed for a big event takes on a deeper meaning when she reflects on the craft, ingenuity and work that goes into the haute couture outfits she has worn over the years, pieces created by the house of Chanel.
