We can't find a trace of this on other news sites or even on their own official page, however as you can see by this photo we received as a tip, there are signs for this popular American fast fashion retailer all over Nanjing Dong Lu. Forever 21 in Shanghai? That's something to talk about. The brand so far has no presence in China and if signs are up...well, the store can't be more than a few months away from opening. (Did a million teenage girls just squeal right there? Hell, did another million twenty-something females squeal?)

Lovers of sensible pants and wearing clothes that ostensibly help fight AIDS somehow - your wishes look like they're about to be answered: more ›

Who's excited to see all your Chinese coworkers suddenly come into work in sensible khakhis and v-neck sweaters? We are! The smart casual staple of the middle-class yuppie, Gap Inc., is finally entering China next year, with hopes that the Chinese will take to Boyfriend pants and striped shirts now that the U.S. domestic market seems to have lost interest. Their China store will be the first new market Gap has entered directly in over a decade and is poised to be "a big opportunity... Chinese consumers love American brands," according to their CEO Glenn Murphy. more ›
