C’est Chic in Shanghai
Successfully and with remarkable numbers, China International Fashion Week ended on October 13th
“We are never dominated by conventions and we do not remain stuck in past knowledge”, stated Chen Dapeng, head of CHIC – China International Fashion Week – and Vice President of the organizing body, CNGA.
In fact, the grand exhibition in Shanghai welcomed more than 67,500 visitors from all over China and abroad. Both Chinese and foreign brands were outstanding, in line with the motto selected for this edition of CHIC: “The Awakening of the Future”.
Many were also the luxury collections that debuted in Shanghai. The prosperous Chinese market was well-visible: the “One Belt, One Road” initiative also supports the sector on the platform of the global fashion industry.
In this fall edition, an increasing number of exhibitors presented new developments in technology, environmental sustainability, and contemporaneity and corporate social responsibility became an increasingly important and significant topic. Sun Ruizhe, chairman of the China National and Apparel Council, insisted on the importance of sustainability in today’s industry, stating: “It is a must”. Next appointment with CHIC Shanghai: March 14th to 16th, 2018.
