Modern Chinese fashion trends are not only influenced by ancient Chinese art, but also by the country’s rich and varied history. Chinese art first originated from the Northern Song Dynasty, which ended more than 200 years ago, during the early Middle Ages. During those times, the country had already established many strong cultural and political influences, which can be seen in the present-day Chinese fashion designs.

Chinese traditional clothing is characterized by simplicity, geometric shapes and bright colors, making it quite eye catching and attractive to the eyes. It can either be simple white or yellow dresses worn during summer, colorful modern tees and pants, or exquisite blue-green embroidered formal wear. Chinese traditional clothing continues to evolve and change with the modernization and globalization that took place during the past two centuries. Many modern Chinese designs have become popular worldwide especially because they include unique Chinese influences. These include ethnic prints, stripes, plaid patterns, floral patterns, polka dots, and other unique and stylish Chinese-inspired fashions.

One of the most popular Chinese modern trends is the vibrant and trendy color scheme known as “qi” (traditional Chinese terminology for color). There are many modern Chinese fashion trends based on this traditional color trend, especially the bright orange, green and red colors that are now very popular. Chinese people spend a lot of time and effort in decorating their houses and offices using these colors, as they find it very attractive and appropriate to use in everyday activities. Some of the most popular colors used in contemporary Chinese design are: blue green, orange, yellow, red and white. Some colors can be used freely, while others need to be balanced in proportion.
