with a Chinese design. People are crazy😀
The Adidas jacket arrives “during the continuing rise of the New Chinese Style, and many longstanding questions and answers about how to express modern Chinese identity in fashion,” said Sarah Cheang, a design historian at the UK’s Royal College of Art. Cheang added that the design offers a refreshing alternative to “stereotypical dragon motifs,” with its resemblance to Tang suits helping to “move the associations away from aggression and Chinese mythology, and slightly more towards Chinese traditions of contemplation, scholarship and more internal balance practices such as tai chi.”
