Shanghai style makes impression at Asian Winter Games in Harbin
China DailyTraditional Chinese cultural elements and aesthetics have been subtly woven into the ceremonial dresses and officials' attire being worn at the ongoing 9th Asian Winter Games in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, reflecting the city's unique features while extending best wishes to participants through Shanghai-style designs. Together with production partners, they submitted more than 20 designs for approval and produced over 1,900 sets of attire for technical and Olympic Council of Asia officials, as well as 116 ceremonial dresses and thousands of accessories, including silk scarves and neckties. "We came up with about 40 designs in total, and 20 were ultimately approved," said Ni Jun, a professor at Donghua University and one of the leaders of the design team. Inspired by the wintry conditions of Harbin, known as China's "ice city", the dress combines traditional Chinese cultural aesthetics with modern tailoring techniques.
