History met haute couture in London last week as China’s rich cultural heritage took center stage at a dazzling event celebrating the first-ever International Day for Dialogue among Civilizations! 🍵👗
Co-hosted by the Chinese Embassy in the UK and the Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, the showcase blended centuries-old tea rituals with cutting-edge fashion designs – think silk robes meeting 3D-printed accessories. 💫 One attendee called it 'a K-drama-level visual feast, but with way better tea.'
The event comes just months after the UN General Assembly declared June 10 a global day for cross-cultural exchange through a China-led resolution backed by 80+ countries. 🌏✌️ 'This isn’t just about tradition,' said event organizer Li Wei. 'It’s about showing how civilizations evolve together – like matcha latte meets TikTok trends.'
Psst… rumor has it the event’s star outfit – a hanfu-inspired gown with LED embroidery – might just walk Paris Fashion Week next year. 👀
