On the Road Again

Veronica Chou SELDOM HAS TIME TO CHILL OUT. WE CATCH HER ON A RARE OCCASION WHEN SHE DOES, TO SEE WHAT SHE HAS PACKED FOR HER NEXT TRIP

The noun jetset was practically invented for Veronica Chou. Have a look at her Instagram account (@veronicaisnowmrsk) and you’ll immediately understand why. Ibiza, Las Vegas, New York, London, Luxembourg, Los Angeles and Thailand are just a few of the places she visited in a five-week period over the summer months. As the president of brand management company Iconix China, Chou splits her time between Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and London for work and personal reasons. When she is not in these cities, she is off exploring new places with her husband, Evgeny Klyucharev. Asked what was one of her most memorable holidays, she says: “I would have to say Sochi when we went to see the Winter Olympics in February. Evgeny’s mother is from Sochi, and my husband and I are avid snowboarders, so we jumped at the opportunity to see the pros.” Rifle through the Style File archives at hongkongtatler.com
