History:
After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, a style of jacket became the symbol of factory workers and, later, the national uniform of the Chinese people.
This modest piece of clothing, known since the days of the Silk Road, when trade with China was intense in the Mediterranean, has a long history dating back centuries.
The jacket, sold throughout the Far East and of French inspiration, represents a piece of history and culture that has spanned revolutions and continents.
In the 1970s, the fashion for China blue took over the Parisian elite, bringing this Chinese workwear item to the forefront of the international fashion scene.
Chinese workwear is distinguished by its deep indigo blue color, typical Chinese buttons, the Peter Pan collar of the jacket and the chino-cut trousers, featuring a button fly and an adjustable waist.
The iconic 100% cotton uniform, sourced directly from China, has successfully intertwined functionality and style. This workwear has fascinated very different sectors, from the working sphere to the world of high fashion.
It is a garment that tells stories of toil, progress and revolution, while maintaining a simple and timeless elegance. The Chinese work jacket is not just a garment, but a symbol of resilience and adaptability.
Its evolution from a garment worn by Chinese workers to an element of high fashion represents a cultural and historical journey that continues to influence and inspire people around the world.
