Jin Xuwen, A Seamstress Who Loves Fashion Design

In Jin Xuwen's impression, in that era, Jinhua almost had no clothes to buy, every household was tailored, and there were few alternatives.

Jin Xuwen is a native of Jinhua. Her mother worked in Jinhua cloth mill for many years.

In 1980, Jin Xuwen, 17, took his mother's work and came to Jinhua cloth factory as a quality inspector. He was specially responsible for testing whether the white cloth produced in the testing plant was qualified.

The life of workers is three shifts, but there are more leisure time.

Young Jin Xuwen had no time to spend time, he wanted to go to the rags market to buy some rags and make some clothes.

Women also do manual work, but they are not very proficient.

In order to learn sewing technology, Jin Xuwen went to Xinhua Bookstore to buy some books related to sewing, and began to teach himself.

Therefore, Jin Xuwen made clothes according to the style of the book, and wore them out to earn enough attention.

There are many women workers in the cloth factory, and they are very fond of Jin Xuwen's clothes. They all call her "tidal vane".

Seeing Jin Xuwen's good looks, he asked him to help himself.

When she was young, she worked in a Jinhua cloth factory, and she could make fashion fashions as fashion magazines at the time.

When she was 33 years old, she began to make stage costumes, and from imitation to independent design, her talents were recognized by more and more people.
