The centuries-old craft of Wuzhishan Li brocade took center stage at an international fashion showcase in Beijing on Sunday, blending traditional weaving with contemporary design.
The Orchids in Bloom event, part of 2025 China Fashion Week Autumn, featured Li and Miao ethnic textiles from Hainan province reimagined as modern attire. Six distinct ensembles from Wuzhishan city were selected for the presentation. The collection included traditional pieces designed by local artisans and modern fashion created through a collaboration between Wuzhishan's Li brocade inheritors and international designer Vivienne Tam.
