自古以来,服饰不仅是一种物质的穿着需求,更是文化和身份的象征。为了增进中美两国人民之间的文化交流与理解,弘扬两国丰富多彩的服饰文化。由世界和平联合会指导,华盛顿国际文化艺术交流中心、中国文化教育研究中心华夏服饰文化专业委员会主办，中美好家庭、西雅图旗袍总会、西雅图上海联谊会协办,《北美工坊》服装支持的2025首届《中美国际时装节》,将于2025年6月14日在美国华盛顿州拉开帷幕。

THE FIRST “CHINA-US INTERNATIONAL FASHION FESTIVAL” IN 2025 WILL KICK OFF

SHARE FASHION, INTEGRATE CULTURE, SHARE LIFE, AND DEVELOP TOGETHER

Fashion aesthetics is the language discipline and quality of life of mankind in the future, and is a part of the world’s cultural and artistic exchanges. The “China-US International Fashion Festival” is divided into two parts, fashion shows and program art performances, sharing harmonious time and space.

Since ancient times, clothing has been not only a material demand for clothing but also a symbol of culture and identity. To enhance cultural exchanges and understanding between the people of China and the United States, and promote the rich and colorful clothing culture. Under the guidance of the World Peace Federation, hosted by the Washington International Cultural and Art Exchange Center and the Huaxia Clothing Culture Professional Committee of the Chinese Cultural and Education Research Center, co-organized by the Washington State Hunan Hometown Association, the China-US Family, the Seattle Cheongsam Association, and the Seattle Shanghai Friendship Association, and supported by the “North American Workshop” clothing, the 2025 first “China-US International Fashion Festival” will kick off on June 14, 2025 in Washington State, USA.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:When Chinese President Xi Jinping delivered a speech at the joint welcome banquet of American friendly groups last year, he pointed out the importance of promoting more movement and exchanges between the people of the two countries. Cultural exchanges between China and the United States can promote understanding and friendship between the two countries. The hope of Sino-US relations lies in the people, the foundation lies in the people, and the future lies in the youth. (Excerpt from Xinhua News Agency in 2024)

In 2015, Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan visited Lincoln Middle School in Tacoma and accepted footballs and football jerseys presented by students. Ten years ago, we joined the welcoming team and temporarily purchased materials to make 40 five-star red flags, one of the largest of which has been collected by the “China Overseas Chinese History Museum”. This year marks the 46th anniversary of establishing diplomatic relations between China and the United States, In his speech at the welcome ceremony of the 2024 Sixth China-US Friendship Cities Conference, Zhang Jianmin, Consul General of the Chinese Consulate General in San Francisco, said that “there are 286 pairs of friendly provinces, states and cities between China and the United States.” Among them: Tacoma, Washington State, and Fujian, China have had friendly exchanges for 31 years, and Seattle and Chongqing, China, have celebrated their 40th anniversary of sister cities this year.

According to data from the Office of the United States Trade Representative in 2021, China accounts for about 28.2% of the total US clothing imports and is the largest clothing importer in the United States. China is Washington State’s largest export destination, and Washington State ranks first among US states in exports to China.

The China-US International Fashion Festival is about cultivating cultural literacy and spiritual cultivation. With the deepening of globalization in the field of clothing, the exchanges between China and the United States in clothing culture and fashion are becoming frequent, and the “China-US International Fashion Festival” for China-US clothing culture exchange came into being. Each set of clothing contains a profound cultural heritage. During the show, we can see the cross-cultural integration of the East and the West, making the show more colorful, and aiming to strengthen the exchanges and cooperation between the two countries in the field of fashion.

The China-US International Fashion Festival, with the theme of “sharing fashion, integrating culture, sharing life, and common development”, promotes friendship through appreciation and communication by displaying traditional and modern costumes, and jointly promotes the exchange of clothing culture between the two countries, and promotes economic and trade cooperation and prosperity.

The China-US International Fashion Festival enhances the friendship and understanding between the people of the two countries, builds a bridge for the exchange of fashion industries between the two countries, and allows more people to understand and appreciate the fashion culture of China and the United States. It not only provides a stage for models from both countries to show themselves, but also injects new vitality into the development of the fashion industry, drives the development of related industries, and is of great significance to promoting the exchange and integration of the cultures of the two countries.

The United States is a country of immigrants. The “China-US International Fashion Festival” provides a full-scale stage for people of all ages, nationalities, skin colors, and religions to show their charm, enhance self-confidence, promote folk friendship, activate community life, and harmonious community culture.
