Shocking Pink (Burma)

That’s what we call shocking pink. The old and new have always been colliding in Yangon.

I like the variety of fashion and styles that people sport in Myanmar - you can find the 1970s, the 80s, the 90s etc and often a mix of these with traditional hair and fashions of the land. There are still styles that remain unchanged from my first visit about 20 years ago.
