A series of fashion shows aiming to revive traditional Chinese craftsmanship will be staged Oct 18-24 in Jiangshan Park in Beijing, according to a news conference Friday.

The upcoming Splendid China: China Intangible Cultural Heritage Fashion Shows has been initiated by Prince Kung's Mansion Museum in Beijing and supported by the China National Textile and Apparel Council, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, China Fashion Week organizing committee, and several other institutions.

The 13 fashion shows will feature traditional embroideries, silverware, handmade dyes, porcelain, and many other intangible cultural heritages, particularly those from non-Han ethnic groups.

Some designs will borrow elements from historical heritages to highlight Tang Dynasty (618-907) culture, a peak time for the ancient Silk Road, while others will showcase modern influencesto explain classical Chinese aesthetics like ink and water paintings.

The shows will be broadcast live on online streaming platforms.

Splendid China was first launched in 2017.

More than 30 fashion shows in this project have been held nationwide to explore creative ways of introducing traditional textiles into people's everyday lives.
