APEC Summit Returns To China For Photo Show "Fashion Show"

As a new generation of leadership group, China has hosted the highest level and most influential international conference. The 2014 APEC summit, whether attending the summit or the main topic, has attracted the attention of public opinion both at home and abroad. Beyond the focus of political and economic factors, the group photo of the leader has become a unique scenic spot.

calendar Summit What kind of local costumes the leaders will wear is one of the hot topics of national media. Back in the past, the first informal meeting of APEC leaders was held in the United States in 1993, when the heads of costumes were informal. They do not have assistants, do not set subjects, and talk freely. When he was president of the United States, Clinton was wearing jeans, which was very characteristic of the western United States.

The following year, APEC Leader The summit was held in Bogor, Indonesia, and the famous "Bogor goal" was formulated. Indonesian President Suharto sent a wax colored Indonesian shirt BATTIK with different colors to the leaders of the conference. Leaders who have always been known for their serious images also show different national characteristics. Since then, conventions have been held, and this special activity has been retained at all previous sessions.

In 2001, the APEC conference came to China for the first time, and Shanghai became the main city of the host city. The special Tang costume is integrated into the traditional Chinese costume concept. It only has two jackets and a jacket and a shirt. The brocade brocade jacket has 6 colors: red, green, blue, coffee, black and red. Exquisite handcrafted border, antique plate buttons are of Oriental flavor.

In the tens of summits, there is also a completely "ignoring" traditional contractor. In 2011, in Hawaii, the leaders did not wear their local costumes, but they did the whole family photo in suits. However, Hawaii's distinctive T-shirts and skirts are obviously not suitable for the leaders to attend the meeting.

This year, Beijing Assume the role of hosting the APEC conference. Finding a garment representing Chinese culture is one of the highlights of "Beijing APEC". In 2013, Lu Peixin, the former director of the Chinese Ministry of foreign affairs, said that clothing that can represent Chinese culture is not only a Tang costume, such as men's Tunic suits and women's cheongsam, which can embody the Chinese national characteristics. In particular, the Chinese tunic suit can be regarded as a national costume for men in China. In recent years, Chinese tunic suits have made many innovations and become more internationalized.

The other is the Han costume, the Han costume has a long history, mostly for the robe, which is divided into ten parts, such as collar, collar, sleeve, sleeve, belt and so on. Two pieces of cloth of equal length are folded separately, and as a result, there is no buttons for Han clothes, so they wear clothes. It is reported that this year, a company responsible for the design of volunteer clothing has introduced that the design of some participants' peripheral garments is spanformed into fashionable suits by combining the characteristics of Hanfu and Tang suit. The company has recommended similar designs to the organizing committee as a leader's clothing.

But insiders predict that the "winning rate" of Hanfu is not high, and certain elements in Hanfu are not excluded. Liang Yan, director of the clothing art and Engineering College of Beijing Institute Of Fashion Technology, head of women's wear professional direction, and one of the main designers of the 2008 Beijing Olympic uniforms, told the media that there are hundreds of Chinese ethnic costumes, but it is impossible to say which form is the representative of the Chinese national dress culture. On the contrary, no matter what a form of clothing can be called "Chinese dress", it is precisely the consistency of spirit and artistic conception behind it. It is a unique oriental aesthetics and humanistic temperament.

Although there is no specific information on the style of the leader's clothing, the volunteers' costumes at this summit have taken the lead. It is reported that Beijing Institute Of Fashion Technology has been formally unveiled at the Beijing Capital Airport at the APEC airport.

The cold clothing worn by volunteers in the outdoors, the blue and white color matching is the color of the APEC organization standard, which reflects the youthful beauty of volunteers. On both sides of the sleeves, there is also a colorful line on the wide white stripe, which incorporates the colorful logo of the APEC conference.

Indoor volunteers wear black suits for each volunteer. The left chest is marked with APEC conference logo and volunteer emblem. The garments are made of three dimensional tailoring. The double row buttons are elegant, simple and practical, and the shirts with Chinese red buttons give people a sense of beauty.

In 2009, the APEC summit was held in Singapore. At that time, Singapore officials held a press conference in advance for many days, announces the costumes worn by the leaders when taking photos. Compared to the Singapore summit, the "fashion show" at the 2014 APEC summit in Beijing is more mysterious. 13 years ago, 21 leaders of the economy left the whole family in front of the Shanghai science and Technology Museum in the Tang Dynasty. The APEC series will return to China, or will show a more Chinese style dress.
