account of school trip to China
Two beautifully dressed party performers
found it highly amusing to decorate Ashley,
one of our students, with flags of friendship.
6. Fashion
-
Fashion is the same as in England other than the traditional Chinese clothes some people were wearing. Shops sell all the same clothes you
can get in England.
-
Their clothes are great but they are all too small!
- There are some beautiful ethnic clothes.
Hugo and Rosie donned traditional Yunnan
and Tibetan dress for the end of the course
Mandarin speaking competition.
-
I love the stores selling Chinese vintage clothes - must look for a Mao suit!
-
Designer labels at a tenth of the UK price – fantastic!
-
The women either seem to be very well dressed - very very well dressed quite often, almost iconic.
-
They seemed to frown at me when I wore a short skirt.
-
Why is it so difficult to find silk in Kunming?
-
The hair fashions seem to be to bleach their hair and make it curly. We even saw some Chinese people with ‘Afro’ haircuts.
- A beautiful silk jacket made to fit cost less than £20.
