XI’AN, China–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The ancient Terracotta Warriors also have fashion elements. In Xi’an,
one of the ancient capitals, a fashion show was performed under the
Chang’an Pagoda in the Chanba Ecological District, which makes
Terracotta Warriors step out of the history and glow with freshness and
vigor. Xu Xiaoping, a famous fashion designer in China, introduced that
the show was inspired by Terracotta Warriors, with the model’s hairstyle
originated from the hair decorations of the Terracotta Warriors. In
fact, the Terracotta Warriors were not “ashy-faced”. According to
historians’ textual research, these figures had more than a dozen of
pigments including vermilion, pink, green, orange, yellow and so on.
After excavation, they lost their original colors due to environmental
changes. Wang Hongmin, the fashion show director, said that the fashion
show under the Chang’an Pagoda was a restoration of the “original
colors” of the Terracotta Warriors.
Chanhe and Bahe rivers have witnessed the ancient civilization of China,
and now they take on a modern look. Located in the east part of Xi’an,
Xi’an Chanba Ecological District was established in September 2004, with
a scheduled area of 129 square kilometers. It is the first national
ecological district, national water ecosystem protection and restoration
demonstration zone and national green ecological demonstration zone in
Northwest China. Over the past 15 years, through continuous control,
Chanba Ecological District has become an “ecological sample” for the
harmonious coexistence between waters and cities, contributing “Chinese
wisdom” to the global green development.
As a great city that once glowed with brilliance in world history, Xi’an
nowadays has become a green, modern, fashionable and open international
ecological city with profound historical and cultural connotations.
Aiming at establishing an international convention and exhibition
district, Xi’an Chanba Ecological District is building the Silk Road
International Convention and Exhibition Center, a complex of convention
and exhibition integrated with ecologicalization, internationalization
and intellectualization. It will provide a comprehensive platform of
exhibition, conference, exchange and transaction for the countries,
regions and cities along the Belt and Road, creating a new platform of
international cooperation and a new window for opening up.
