The text around this gorgeous Bazaar China post is a historic review of the Hulun Buir region; and it’s long. So AOC will post the fashion story first w/o the historical text; then immediately do the long version, which is written and ready to go. FYI, this is the cashmere-producing region in which Loro Piana operates.
