China's changing fashion since 1978 (9/17)

File photo taken in January of 2002 shows models selecting traditional Chinese garments for a fashion show in Beijing, capital of China. Since the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy put forward during the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in 1978, China has taken on a wholly new look, and the conception of fashion is changing day by day as new messages and ways of life update the thinking of Chinese people.
