In this paper I will outline the profile of the celebrated pop singer Teresa Teng (1953-1995), also known as Teresa Deng and Teng Li-Chun (traditional Chinese: 鄧麗君; simplified Chinese: 邓丽; pinyin: Dèng Lìjūn). 26 years after her death, Teresa Teng, I would argue, has a role not only for her music, but as a fashion icon of global reach. Her fame has in fact continued after her death, and she has recently acquired a new global interest. I will look at Teresa Teng as a Chinese fashion icon influencing global fashion, much beyond her life.

Abstract
In this paper I will outline the profile of the celebrated pop singer Teresa Teng (1953-1995), also known as Teresa Deng and Teng Li-Chun (traditional Chinese: 鄧麗君; simplified Chinese: 邓丽; pinyin: Dèng Lìjūn). 26 years after her death, Teresa Teng, I would argue, has a role not only for her music, but as a fashion icon of global reach. Her fame has in fact continued after her death, and she has recently acquired a new global interest. I will look at Teresa Teng as a Chinese fashion icon influencing global fashion, much beyond her life.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
