Xi'an Hosts Belt and Road International Fashion Week to Promote Cultural Exchange
" Xi'an is the perfect location to hold BRI Fashion Week, and we are thrilled with the event's success," said Wang Haotian, Chairman of the BRI Fashion Week Organizing Committee. "The city's long history with profound cultural elements inspires designers and artists in the fields of fashion, arts, architecture and more. At the same time, it is moving forward, modernizing through the leveraging of cutting-edge technology and urban planning. It is both an ancient city that stands as a real connection to the ancient Silk Road and a key linchpin in today's globe-spanning BRI. There is no better place to gather together professionals in the areas of art, fashion and textiles to talk about how our industries, through international cooperation, can fulfill the needs of people who live across the developing world."
The week's events gathered together well-known designers such as Wang Xiaoxia, President of L'OFFICIEL China; Mao Junjie, APAC Managing Director of MARC JACOBS ; Lu Hao ; Tony Brown ; Arnault Garcia ; Ma Qingyun and Laurence Xu .
