It is accelerating its efforts to surpass "ordinary" and achieve excellence, and striving to create one more outstanding performance after another.

Lu Jian, member of the standing committee of the Party Xi'an Municipal Committee and executive deputy mayor of the city, said at the opening ceremony that he sincerely hoped that the global fashion elite will work to bring together the cultural industry resources in the countries along the Belt and Road, share new opportunities for development, create international brand fashion activities, and work to create an international fashion brand matrix and an international designer training center in Xi’an.
