It will be jointly held by the costumes society and the Asian Art Department of the Metropolitan Museum, which will celebrate its 100th anniversary commemoration.

The exhibition will be set up in the metropolitan Anna Wintour fashion center and the Chinese Gallery.

"The West seems increasingly interested in China, and the impact of Chinese culture on the West seems to have reached a new climax."

Andrew Bolton, director of the clothing society, explained the selection of the exhibition.

"Our basic concept is the influence of Chinese aesthetics on designers, but I also hope to convey.

The crystallization of cultural exchanges between eastern and Western cultures in the past few years.

This shows the continuous charm of these mysterious objects and themes.

They are full of fantasy, nostalgia and romance, often constructing a virtual China. These outdated mixed styles end in a mixture.

What is really interesting is how China formed these illusions.

The name of the exhibition came from an indoor game in Great Britain. A message was whispered in a circle until it was completely misinterpreted.

"This is a very good metaphor for many themes and cultural images to disappear in the process of pmission," Bolton said.

In the museum, Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch gallery will show these concepts, accompanied by films from directors Ang Lee, Zhang Yimou and Kaige Chen, and retro women's styles, such as Song Meiling, Ci Xi empress dowager and Mrs. Gu Lixiong.

The Chinese Gallery will focus on the 1970s to present China.

At that time, more than 100 clothing designs, garments and decorative arts from China will be presented.

Chinese opera is another important theme that will be presented by performer Mei Lanfang, which is also the inspiration source behind John galliano's 2013 Dior fashion show.

The series of costumes will be exhibited with Mei Lanfang's original costumes.

The exhibition is hosted by the metropolitan costumes society, and Cao Qifeng is honorary chairman.

Oscar prize winner Jennifer Lawrence, Chinese actress Gong Li, YAHOO chairman and ceO Marissa mayer, wendimurdoch and Anna Wintour are co chairmen.

"This is probably one of the most important fashion events," said Yahoo style editor in chief and Executive Creative Director.

"This exhibition and the way people want to connect with fashion from a global perspective is very important to us.

This message is closely related to what we are doing now.

Yahoo is moving towards the world.

"Chinese whisper" will launch a Chinese inspired design from more than 100 designers and brands.

These include the Sarah Burton of Paul Alexander mcQueen, Tom Ford of yvessaint Laurent, Jean Paul Gaultier, the Paul of the Jean, the design of the bar during the period of "the", "the", "the", "the" and so on.

The costume society chooses the exhibits from the clothing and clothing that interpret the theme.

As Bolton said, these costumes are a concept that inspires Chinese inspired designers to receive the gift of this great eastern power.
