Lucky Magazine (December 2011): CITY GUIDE New York
Think of Erica Kiang as your personal shopper. Only she shops the entire world. Every six weeks, Kiang embarks on a global pilgrimage and brings back treasures like Peruvian oil vials, Spanish-print pants, Korean denim wear and a particular Japanese meowing cat camera we're sort of obsessed with.

Refinery 29 (August 4): Fall's Hottest Arrivals From 3 Influential Shop Owners

Who: Erica Kiang, owner of Babel Fair.
What She's Wearing: A long, sheer vintage El Delgado Buil shirt in blue porcelain print.
Fall Must-Have #1
Funktional leather-sleeve varsity jacket, $399.
"A play on a typical varsity jacket, this uber-luxe version makes us think of a super-chic high school—one where our lockers are devoid of ill-fitting uniforms and filled with jackets made of lamb leather and silk. A Clueless throwback."
Fall Must-Have #2
TBA- Ford silk pants in hot pink, $189, Funktional Skip Blouse in sapphire blue, $159.
"Avoid all drab fall colors and invest in a few pop-color pieces this season. We love to mix and match bold colors for a color-block look."
Fall Must-Have #3
El Delgado Buil vintage horse print wide-leg pants, $419, and sheer asymmetrical beaded-collar blouse, $269.
"Katharine Hepburn always got it right—the billowier the better. This season our favorite Spanish label, El Delgado Buil, focuses on wide-leg pants and oversized shirts in vintage prints."
