Tina Chow (born Bettina Louise Lutz, April 18, 1950 – January 24, 1992) was an American model and jewelry designer who was considered an influential fashion icon of the 1970s and 1980s.

[1] Walter Lutz met Mona Furuki on Christmas Day 1945, while serving with the United States Army in occupied Japan.

[1] Both sisters were later discovered by a modeling agent and became the faces of Japanese cosmetic line Shiseido and featured prominently in their ad campaigns from the early 1970s.

She routinely paired inexpensive items with high fashion pieces and mixed feminine and masculine styles simultaneously.

Chow was also noted for her androgynous Eton crop hairstyle which she had cut at a New York barbershop and styled with Dippity Do.

In 1987, the first collection was sold at Bergdorf Goodman in New York,[3] Maxfield's in Los Angeles, at Ultimo in Chicago, and later (from 1988) at Gallerie Naila Monbrison in Paris.

Perhaps one of the best known pieces in the collection is the "Kyoto Bracelet," which is a woven bamboo bangle which encases seven rough rock crystals or rose quartz in their natural form.
