Peru Dress Designer Su Mei Gu Zhong'S "China Dream"

Su Mei's Chinese dream is not only because she has half Chinese blood, but also because she likes China very much. In her eyes, China is a great country. She is especially impressed by the rapid development of China in recent years.

Su Mei's father is from Guangdong, China. Her mother is from Peru. She was born in Lima, Peru, and grew up in Lima.

Since I was educated in a Chinese School in Lima, the influence of Chinese culture and Chinese elements is everywhere.

Sumei has been in the industry for more than 11 years. She has her own studio in Lima. Her designs have been published in many internationally renowned fashion magazines, including Vogue Lat, Dweel Magazine, Moda Pelle and Journal Pret a Porter Paris.. Her designs have also participated in fashion shows such as Madrid fashion week, or have been displayed in fashion exhibition hall, which is important in the industry.

Su Mei said that when she was very young, she liked to design different clothes and skirts for her doll, and her mother would help her to realize her various creative ideas about fashion.

Su Mei said: "my mother is a very creative person, and I knew at that time that I was going to do this job in the future. This is my world. I particularly like those fibers, different fabrics, tailoring, and so on, and I have a special feeling."

So far, Sumei has held four personal fashion shows in China, namely in Beijing, Shanghai and Hongkong.

And she has planned the next time to come to China. It will be autumn and winter in 2016. She will bring his brand design once again, and hold fashion shows in Beijing and Shanghai.

When she first came to China, she was still very young and a little girl. She came with her family, but she first brought her design to China in 2013.

"At that time, I brought my design to the fashion week in Hongkong, and then I came to Beijing with my design and organized a fashion show under the support of the Peru Embassy in China," Sumei said in reply to an email in reply to China Daily.

Talking about why

When entering the Chinese market, so confident, Su Mei said, "my design style is mainly permanent, that is, it is not affected by time constraints. The world is mainly based on simplicity, and for me, less is more."

At the same time, she also likes to use Peru's fiber fabrics in his design, such as camel hair and camel hair.

In addition to promoting their own design in the Chinese market,

We also hope to bring Peru's camel hair into the Chinese market and promote it in the Chinese market.

There are many characteristics of camel's hair, including diversity and good quality.

Softness, durability, environmental protection and so on. I think the practicality, comfort and fashionable style of camel's hair are very suitable for China's fashion market, "Su Mei said.

At the same time, she also expressed the idea of promoting camel's hair in the Chinese market by borrowing some high-end design clothing. At present, Sumei is doing research on textile related fabric culture in Peru and other parts of the world. Before the interview, she came back from the field visit to the Amazonian valley.

Peru's ambassador to China, Juan Carlos Capu ay, said in an interview with China textile daily in April this year: "camel hair and Angola rabbit hair, cashmere and Ma Haimao are among the world's top fabrics, but compared with other high-end fabrics, camel hair fabrics are more excellent.

Because alpacas grow on the plateau of 3000~4000 meters above sea level, low protein based food structure makes alpaca hair soft and shiny.

At the same time, camel hair has excellent performance in terms of warmth retention.

Moreover, unlike Ma Haimao and Angola rabbit hair color is too single, there are 24 colors of camel hair, which can be blended into a variety of colors.

This makes camel hair better suited to the current use of fabrics and meets consumer demand in terms of plasticity or environmental protection, Capu ay said.
