I’m talking about Chinese street style, popular on social networks.

Not long ago, users from the Middle Kingdom poured into the TikTok application. The service was immediately flooded with videos from the streets of Chinese cities, marked with the hashtag #ChineseStreetFashion. And the rest of the world really liked them. What do fashionistas and fashionistas from China wear? Today I will tell you about this!

Monochrome

Pure and simple colors: white, black, natural shades of ocher and mustard, the ubiquitous nude. All this is popular in the Middle Kingdom. The Chinese skillfully put together fashionable looks, combining elements of contrasting colors: a white top and a black bottom or, conversely, a white jacket with an olive or mustard-colored top. Total onions, often flesh-colored or dark in color, are also trendy.

Drawings on clothes

Bright prints are not only taking over T-shirts and sweatshirts. They cover sweatpants, jackets, and accessories. Lettering on the back, logos of famous brands, geometry and vegetation are all popular in Chinese street style.

Denim

Skinny jeans with a high waist and an open ankle are worn mainly by girls. A fairly common new trend is one ripped pant leg with a noticeable hole, showing off a dainty pale leg. Knickers are also very popular - ultra-short, high-waisted shorts made of denim.

Skinny and Wide Leg Pants

These styles remain fashionable among the youth of the Middle Kingdom. The tight-fitting bottom favorably emphasizes the figure of Chinese women. Young men demonstrate “casual bohemian chic” in tight leather trousers and an elegant loose trench coat. Or they throw themselves into the “street style”, wearing spacious cargo pants with many pockets. They are usually tucked into high boots. The top is occupied by a wide sweatshirt.

Crop tops

Short, plain tops that highlight a toned tummy are also popular among Chinese girls. There are a variety of styles in fashion: sporty styles, bandeau tops worn with a long shirt or an open jacket, feminine models with open shoulders and ruffles. In addition, Chinese women are not shy about showing everything at once. They often pair a crop top with micro shorts without any embarrassment.

Mini dresses

The traditional dress of Chinese women, qipao, has lost its distinctive features. For example, a stand-up collar or a horizontal clasp with a knot. However, it retained the main idea: a combination of modesty and piquancy. Modern fashionistas choose tight-fitting mini dresses that demonstrate all the advantages of the figure and visually lengthen the legs. And calm natural colors with a minimum of finishing add an image of innocence.

Oversized

Large items have also conquered China. Baggy sweatshirts with bright prints are worn by both boys and girls. So that the figure does not get lost in such clothes, ladies combine them with mini-shorts.Young men dilute this trend with multi-layering: an even longer shirt with an asymmetrical hem often peeks out from under a wide sweatshirt.

Sneakers

The Chinese wear them with any clothes. The girl from the Middle Kingdom in heels is just a recent trend towards Europeanization. Basically, Chinese women wear sneakers with shorts or jeans, tight trousers or wide pants, a dress or skirt. It's comfortable and stylish.

High shoes

As a tribute to militarism, high boots, such as military combat boots, have become firmly entrenched in Chinese street fashion. Boys wear them with wide cargo pants or sweatpants, tucked into their shoes. Girls prefer high boots or dark knee socks. Wear them with microshorts and mini-dresses.
