A special exhibition displaying vintage Chinese garments was held in the Kuwaiti embassy in Beijing on June 5 to enhance cultural exchanges between the two countries.
Dozens of exhibits dating back to over 200 years come from collection of Bi Hong, a Beijing-based fashion designer and private collector focusing on ancient Chinese garments.
Some of the exhibits were once owned by the imperial family of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), while others were once used by aristocrats and different social classes.
Exquisite antique fashion pieces and accessories were also on display.
