"Made in China"is having its moment now-and it's a fashionable one.
The story of Chinese fashion began in 2011 when Feiyue and Huili,the two Chinese sports shoe brands,suddenly got
international attention.Their products were seen all over the world.A famous Chinese sportswear brand Li Ning was at the New
York Fashion Week in September,2018.They showed their new designs-sweaters and jackets with Chinese characters.
Shaun Rein,managing director of China Market Research Group,said that the latest Chinese brands no longer catch customers'
eye by low price.He told CNN,"They are sure that they can go head to head with foreign brands."
Maybe it is because China's young people are now more confident about their own culture.They don't show immediate interest
in Western culture any more.
"Today's young people in China are crazy about Chinese cultural elements(),"Jin Qu,the manager ofa clothing shopping
website,said at a cultural festival in 2018."They like these elements printed on their clothes,even the brand picture of Laoganma
in China,which was once seen as outside of fashion.But now young people are proud of these Chinese symbols."
In fact,many stars in the West now are interested in Chinese cultural elements in fashion.Rihanna,a US singer,for example,
wore a Chinese red dress to the 2015 Met Gala in New York.The dress was designed and made by Chinese designer Guo Pei.
7."We have to move from making to creating,"Chinese-American designer Aric Chen once told The New York Times."We want
to replace the words 'Made in China'with Designed in China."
