A 58-year-old woman from Qingdao became famous overnight, after she was revealed as the inventor of the facekini, which made waves in the international fashion community.
Zhang Shifan said she was considering applying for a patent after photos of elegant models wearing facekinis were released by CR Fashion Book magazine.
The former accountant learnt to sew when she was young and started working in a water sports equipment store managed by her husband when she retired in 2006.
