The Dictator: Unless you Googled with a great white bag over your head, we're not sure how your search could have failed. The brand told us: 'You can't yet find our products in Hong Kong.' However, you can place online orders through the label's website, www.annefontaine.com. There's your answer, but we couldn't leave it there. We found countless fabulous, unusual white shirts for you right here in Hong Kong. It's no surprise to us that Emporio Armani (shop 101, Chater House, Central, tel: 2532 7777) and Calvin Klein (shop A, Melbourne Plaza, 33 Queen's Road Central, tel: 2526 8808) offer basic to intricate takes on the white shirt (HK$1,200 to HK$3,400). Diane von Furstenberg does more than dresses, including blouses with dramatic sleeves and collars (HK$2,000 to HK$2,800; shop 306, The Landmark, Central, tel: 2522 8782). More pleasant surprises await at Hugo Boss, which has a shirt with layered, diagonal pleats on the front (HK$3,600), and at Elie Tahari, whose offerings have intentional gaps in the seams or braided details (HK$2,100 to HK$2,900; both at Lane Crawford, Times Square, Causeway Bay, tel: 2118 3683). Italian brand 6267 makes amazingly structured shirts (HK$4,600 to HK$5,300) while Hidy Ng's shirts have a Victorian style and beading (HK$2,900; both at Harvey Nichols, The Landmark, tel: 3695 3388). Patrizia Pepe unexpectedly deconstructs the classic white shirt (HK$2,090 to HK$2,990; shop 325, Times Square, tel: 2506 1108). At the new-ish Ted Baker store, white shirts come with pin-tuck details or a simple tie neck (HK$1,300; shop 147, Pacific Place, Admiralty, tel: 2918 9609). Looking for something less than HK$1,000? Check out the selection at Club Monaco (HK$550 to HK$790; G/F, 16 Queen's Road Central, tel: 2118 2989).

The Dictator: Come on, people, it's really not that hard to find brands. Well, if you know how to spell the name correctly, that is. You need an extra 'l' in there, and I don't think I need to tell you what that stands for in your case. Being dim-witted, you must lose often enough as it is. It's Collette Dinnigan and she's actually from New Zealand, but we grant you the brand has roots in Australia. Read all about her at www.collettedinnigan.com. You'll find her feminine, dress-driven collections, each with varying degrees of beading, lace and va-va-voom appeal, in a few places in Hong Kong. The Swank carries the label in Central (shop 202, Alexandra House, tel: 2868 2017) and in Tsim Sha Tsui (shop L103, The Place, New World Centre, tel: 2736 8567).
