Designers from 30 countries and regions are invited to design and create new cheongsam that will rejuvenate China’s traditional culture on the basis of China cheongsam, with the background of regional cultural characteristics, from the perspective of the fields that designers are good at, and combined with new technologies.
“The participating designers include world-renowned designers of International Fashion Week and students who have just graduated from fashion colleges, covering all ages in the industry, covering four continents including Asia, Europe, America and Africa.” The staff introduced.
It is worth mentioning that after accepting the invitation, designers all over the world took the initiative to deeply study the shape and history of China traditional cheongsam, and then refined the cultural and historical elements of the country where they were located, and re-created the cheongsam from the aspects of fabric, pattern and design style.
According to reports, the holding of the Cheongsam Exhibition is inseparable from the efforts of every designer and the strong support from all walks of life.

This exhibition will last until December 11th. Citizens who want to appreciate the charm of China can visit the exhibition hall on the first floor of the Fashion Museum of China Silk Museum.
