Traditional Chinese elements were the stars of the show at the release event of the China Fibers Fashion Trends Report for 2023 to 2024 held in Shanghai on Tuesday.

The report, compiled by the China Chemical Fibers Association, Donghua University and the China Cotton Textile Association, has seen a successful run of 11 editions to date. Annually, it announces the most cutting-edge fiber varieties in technology, environmental sustainability, functionality, innovation and other areas.
