CHIC keeps its finger on the pulse and is the leading trade fair for trade and industry." Chen Dapeng, President of the China National Garment Association and CHIC.

CHIC TRENDS

CHIC, China International Fashion Fair, was once again a trend catalyst for the Chinese fashion market. The focus of interest in the Chinese trade was on smart forms of clothing, while couture elements underlined the new femininity. In the menswear area, a modern dandy style aroused great interest: the waistcoat in contrasting colors is in demand again, along with the English jacket, often combined with casual trousers. New products in the children's fashion sector showed swinging silhouettes for girls, and fancy sweatshirts and jeans for boys. Also at the top of the trend spectrum: the Hanfu style, Chinese design combined with traditional Chinese elements.

CHIC HIGHLIGHTS

CHIC SPECIAL

The CHIC & GFS (Green Fashion Society) area was of particular importance. Centrally placed in the fair, in the north entrance hall of the NECC, the artists Ma Defan and Li Haitao designed their artistic concept on the subject of CHIC GARDEN. The focus was on the installation "Growth" made of old clothes and fiber by artist Ma Defan, who, among other things, designed costumes for the films of the famous director Zhang Yimou. Ma Defan is committed to sustainable development in China and is involved in projects such as GREEN NEXT, a Chinese online and offline platform for developing sustainable solutions for fashion and lifestyle.

Inspired by running water, Li Haitao chose wild bamboo from Anji as the material for the installation and transformed the surface into a large-format work of art as a symbiosis of nature and man, craftsmanship and industrial production.

Together they created the sustainable "dream garden" at CHIC.

Here companies exhibited their sustainable products and collections such as DuPont / Sorona (USA), centdégrees (France), the Consinee Group (China), LangerChen (Germany / China), Sateri (Japan / China), Kingdom (China), Testex (Switzerland) or PIPING HOT from Australia, who work to preserve the ecosystems of the oceans.

The presentation was accompanied by the matchmaking meeting on sustainable hemp fiber products from Kingdom Holdings and the Sustainable Fashion Forum on the future of sustainable fashion.

CHIC IMPULSES & DOUYIN

Over 100 designers showed their new creations in the IMPULSES design area, including the well-known bag designer Wa Yin or Yvonne Choi, Dumpty, QZ Shen, three Chinese designers who develop their collections inspired by Western fashion trends.

Ding Jie with the label D. Martina Queen shows perfect craftsmanship, the exchange between tradition and modernity, east and west, a futuristic image of the Orient. It sets aesthetic standards for Chinese fashion design.

The presentation of the designers was accompanied by DouYin (TikTok), who presented their live streaming platform for fashion sales at the invitation of CHIC. Live streaming is an essential marketing tool to reach Chinese consumers. CHIC supported the companies in expanding their brands through professional social entertainment and live streaming marketing through the DouYin platform at the fair. DouYin honored the brands' best live streaming rooms and added them to the DouYin portfolio.

More than 10 shows, including the “New Page Hong Kong Brand Release Show”, the “Another One Brand Release Show”, and the “HLA Brand Release Show”, thrilled the audience with their new collections and showed the latest trends. A highlight was "Reach & Touch", the designer show at the fair.

In addition to the modern interpretation of traditional Chinese designs - flowers, landscapes, gardens, birds - seen at Peony Pavilion or the Tang-style suits by designers Xu Xiaoyan and Zhao Shuang, designers such as Dumpty, Yvonne Choi or QZ Shen realized modern themes based on Western design. Dumpty deals with "Marine Avengers", the defense of sea creatures against humans. With "Games", QZ Shen draws a two-dimensional picture of the game animation with strong color contrasts and a deep structure in the design. With "European Garden", Yvonne Choi was inspired by the European world of flowers and shows the modern style of independent women with temperament and aesthetics combined with romantic elements.
