When you think of fashion week, what comes to mind first – is it a feast for trends, a stage for creativity, an arena for designers to show their talents, or a catwalk for models to show off their style?
Or maybe it's none of the above, and there are only three words in my head - I can't understand it.
It is said that art comes from life, but it is higher than life. But some of the design performances of Fashion Week make people can't understand it.

Every year, Fashion Week has a high degree of attention, but every year at Fashion Week, there will be some fashions that make people show the expression of "subway old man looking at his phone", which makes people can't help but wonder: Are these clothes really worn by anyone?
What is Fashion?
Some people summarize it as: what you can't usually wear on the street and you can't understand is "fashion"!
But is there really no fashion that people can understand? Is there really no show that can be used for everyday wear?
Not really. It's not all elusive fashion on the runway, in fact, many of the runway pieces are beautifully designed and easy to understand, and they not only entertain the audience, but also inspire everyday wear.
In the 2019 Spring/Summer theme of Gaia's fashion show, we can see the original strong colors and delicate and complex patterns in the Dunhuang murals, with light clothing materials as the base, neutralizing the original sense of history and fitting the chic and introverted temperament of modern women.
This elegant and dignified, gentle and atmospheric design, anyone who sees it will not say a word: what a beautiful fairy!

It is not difficult to find out after looking at these clothes: it turns out that fashion can be understood.
At the same time, we are also seeing more and more Chinese fashion designers on the international stage and competing with their counterparts around the world. This all shows that the "right to speak" of Chinese brands in the international fashion industry is gradually improving.

Speaking of the influence of Chinese brands in Fashion Week, when I was observing Milan Fashion Week in January, I was pleasantly surprised to find a treasure show - the "Collector from 2080" fashion show from Chinese domestic brand Jinba Menswear.
The reason why this show is a treasure is that in addition to being a Chinese brand and showing Chinese elements, there are three more important aspects.
01 Understandable fashion
Fashion that people can understand, this requirement seems simple, but in fact it is difficult!
Elegance is the intuitive feeling of this show.
For the sixth time on the official calendar of Milan Fashion Week, KB HONG, the theme of this season's collection is "Collectors from 2080". Just conceptually, one can imagine a collector who travels freely between time and space, using the show as a collection container, skillfully blending East and West, classic and modern, humanities and art, using exquisite tailoring and high-end fabrics to show his extraordinary elegance.
In this fashion show, there are no outlandish cuts, no eye-catching designs, just very intuitive elegance and sophisticated tailoring. After reading it, netizens couldn't help but shout, "Everything looks good"!
02 Ordinary people can wear it
In addition to being understandable, another treasure of the show is that ordinary people can also wear it.
The first is design. Pleated, overlapping collar, placket...... These traditional Chinese costumes are flexibly interspersed with jackets, trench coats, trousers and shirts, revealing both modern and sophisticated Chinese style.
I can't even imagine how capable and stylish my senior brother should be when I wear these show styles!
The second is the Chinese element. The wildness and wildness of the animals in the patterns of the mythical beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the gorgeous and complex decorations in the ancient buildings of Dunhuang, under the abstract artistic processing and restrained and simple techniques, bring just the right amount of mystery and romance.
Finally, there is the international style and fashion sense. The show is made of high-end fabrics such as Xiangyun yarn, cashmere, camel hair, alpaca, wool and other high-end fabrics, which are known as "soft gold", and the design uses the ultra-long version to concretely express the slender and tall figure, so that the clothes add a bit of transcendent fashion sense and a sense of the future on the basis of actual wearing.
03 Advanced and down-to-earth
The big show of the treasure can naturally attract the audience of the treasure. In the front row of the show, the senior brother saw the famous Italian singer and songwriter, Mahmoud, who has won the Sanremo Music Festival twice, and Taylor, a popular new generation actor in Hollywood.
In fact, before this show, Taylor and Jinba menswear had already collaborated in December.
On Taylor's first official trip to China, Taylor first wore the Jinba menswear zodiac collection, with a delicate dragon pattern and a Chinese overlapping collar that depicted the charm of contemporary oriental fashion.
Taylor's second outfit is a Chinese jacket with a folded collar in a high-end wool Maillard color, which is both warm and bright, allowing Taylor to easily grasp the sense of relaxation.
This was followed by four sets of Jinba men's high-end series KB HONG Milan Fashion Week shows, with Chinese overlapping collars from Hanfu adding a touch of restrained charm to the look, the asymmetry of Chinese overlapping collars and suit lapels contains the aesthetic balance between East and West, the shoulder design of the classical Chinese eaves structure perfectly blends the oriental charm with the western temperament, and the jacquard shirt with oriental floral pattern extends to show natural relaxation in business formal wear.
Four sets of show models, each of which made Taylor full of ritual at the event.

Taylor's seventh outfit is a new Chinese overlapping collar jacket in the Year of the Dragon series, and the design incorporates elements such as the classic Chinese dragon pattern, which is a perfect match for the streets of the magic capital, where East and West blend together!
Seven sets of costumes in seven days, Jinba made Taylor feel a wave of contemporary fashion charm of oriental aesthetics, and the senior brother saw the high-end of Jinba's exploding red carpet and the down-to-earth spirit of City Walk.
Jinba's unique and self-consistent temperament makes it suitable for various occasions, and even ordinary people can easily get the fashion style of celebrities.

How can you not wear the dragon model in the Year of the Dragon? The Year of the Dragon is approaching, and the senior brother has discovered some treasures of the Jinba family.
Jinba Men's Zodiac New Year Series - "Descendants of the Dragon, Fish and Dragon" Dragon Year of the Dragon Series can meet the needs of the whole family for the New Year.
There are many dragon imprints, which can be the blessed flower shape of "Fish and Dragon Leap", the traces of dragon scale armor in ancient buildings in southern Fujian, and the striped texture that symbolizes the footprints of struggle.
No matter what kind of imprint, behind it is the spiritual totem of the Chinese nation.
The "Chinese Overlapping Collar Jacket 1.0" series launched by Jinba cleverly integrates the delicate dragon pattern in the "Jacket Descendant of the Dragon" show into the design, and contrasts with the Chinese collar inspired by the traditional Hanfu overlapping collar, which not only exudes a strong elegant temperament, but also highlights the confidence and spirit of the heirs of the dragon. While maintaining comfort and convenience in wearing, the series also leads the fashion trend of Chinese men, becoming a fashion statement for modern men to show cultural confidence.
In addition to the Year of the Dragon series, the three business casual series of Jinba menswear can provide Chinese men with a richer and more suitable daily dress.
If you want to reflect the refined taste of the business man, then the new business collection is neat and elegant, classic and simple to meet the needs of dressing. Low-key colors, minimalist design, ingenious splicing, and high-end fabrics all reveal a mature and calm elegance.
If you consider the needs of business travel and life gatherings, you can try a fashion business series dedicated to creating an urban men's style.
Holiday wear should of course be comfortable and stylish, and a young, comfortable and energetic holiday collection can perfectly balance functionality and style.
Whether it's an executive office, a business trip, a holiday getaway, or a fashion party, the Rimula Daily Collection ensures that you look your best on any occasion, confident and at ease.
As the saying goes: "People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles", and a person's temperament can often be improved by wearing a dress that is both trendy and has a sense of luxury.
With the New Year just around the corner, it's important to celebrate the New Year by choosing a beautiful outfit for yourself, or for your loved partner and family. As a brand that has been invited to the official calendar of Milan Fashion Week for the sixth time in five consecutive years, Jinba Menswear is undoubtedly your wise choice.
