In idioms, there are superfluous superfluous, not icing on the cake but self-defeating means. But in the design world, designers draw a snake, however, want to add "foot", the snake associated with selling fashion are discovered.
In nature, the snake giving a "cold" feeling, but in SEVEN DAYS Ding Wei, vice chairman and chief operating officer seems popular in the international cultural system, such as the skull image can become even more terrifying when the fashion , the "snake" the design of a lot easier. For the "snake phase" may follow the use of the concept of a certain customer base, especially in fashion design, be able to use some of the snake-phase design compared to the trend of young people converged consumer demand.

In the jewelry industry, snake jewelry has endless. SU Su famous silver jewelry brand designed a series of "paper-cut snake" Jewelry, "SU Su" Capture the traditional folk paper-cut element as performance practices, through careful exquisite hollow pattern, the shape of a snake shape, simple and elegant yet lively and enchanting losing interest, expressing the traditional Chinese flavor.

Founder Chang Sha Wa said: "snake painting on porcelain from a local beauty snake cut, to be exaggerated, such as the color snakeskin snake coiled shape have a great beauty, we would be celadon 'fragmentation' flu fascinated, if snakeskin color into the porcelain art, design must be unique. "
In the eyes of foreign designers, the snake coiled body has been a source of creativity, many brands of fine jewelry to many diverse works deduce graceful beauty of the snake. Italian fashion brand Breil designed a brooch, seventy-eight colorful snake dancing posture composed a brilliant brooch; while Dior introduced a snake necklace is showing more spiral-shaped, with a blue tail and snakeheads are stones or glass sand is made.
Not only is the snake, foreign designers in recent years to expand the Chinese market to cater to Chinese consumers' tastes, has great importance in the design of fusion of Chinese traditional culture, Chinese Zodiac is a design element. Symbol of power, domineering, aggressive meaning dragon and Maio its preference by the high-end brand, which is particularly evident in the watch industry.

Straw embroidered into painting
Straw painting "lucky bird" has recently been assessed as "the third installment of Shanghai fine arts and crafts." Shanghai straw painting is created "straw embroidered" paintings inventor Yao Yi Jia, she is a Shanghai arts and crafts field after 80 rookie, her straw craft show in Shanghai has been appointed by the letter included in the "varieties of traditional arts and skills of Shanghai . "
Yao Yi Jia graduated from Donghua University fashion design degree, because love of crafts, she went to study in Suzhou embroidery, studies Hui Hu, and actively explore the straw painting and traditional embroidery into one, and finally to "straw embroidered painting process" emerge.
"Lucky Bird" with a full straw draw, I saw two lucky bird perched in front of the round window frame Fujieda, and a bristling, head down to look at the following flowers and a very lively and lovely, rich bird feathers , eyes bright, window railings full three-dimensional. XiaoYao said bird's eye with a 5-layer made of straw, straw with different colors railings constitute 45 degree angle.
Yao Yi Jia's work on the straw quality requirements, it is necessary to keep them natural luster, but also have textures and texture. They all come from all over to find, and then after more than a dozen treatment processes. Straw embroidered paintings absorption painting, printmaking, pyrography, stickers and many other performance practices, creating a simple and elegant, vivid effect.
Neck dress
In traditional Chinese cultural elements, the Peking Opera is indispensable. Traditional cultural elements of this redesign, but most stay in the rote, such as Face T-shirts, etc., but consumers do not buy it for this redesign, but feel tacky. SEVEN DAYS designers another way to take "small but excellent" road, the mask design into a button, or as a LOGO, or as a small decorated with exquisite attractive. Because obvious, but customers should look carefully craned their necks to feel very chic, is spun from the desire to purchase.
Redesign elements of traditional Chinese culture, making into the modern lifestyle, we need to make the appropriate elements of traditional culture "face." Let us see:
Entitled "Facebook" series of jewelry, diamond gold finishes, the background is black, with only 4 Smart Peking Opera hollow on the show lively and mighty of the gas;
This "cheongsam" jewelry, inadvertently looming Chinese ruby on, accompanied by plum-shaped gold and silver buckle, with idyllic charm, at first glance, I just feel this good shape familiar, careful thought, This is taken from the dress style not showing gorgeous women do noble high collar?
There is this "grilles" ring, an orange-red background like a window warm lighting, staggered like gold grilles complex pattern, decorative pearl like light projection after reflection on the window grilles;
Moreish along with this "Chinese knot" rings, modeling simple but it makes one look agree.
According to reports, the trend in jewelry design at home and abroad to Chinese elements of the theme has been designed by Chinese and foreign designers are keen, but they just extract the core elements of traditional culture re-design, to avoid completely the shape, while the deliberate pursuit of likeness. In the fashion industry, the Chinese wind blowing the same Sheng. But experienced designers have realized that the use of traditional cultural elements can not be applied mechanically, the same Chinese red also have stylish interpretation; profile shape with the current fashion trends also have the point of integration, such as robes should be done more elegant; clothing on some of the Chinese plate buttons, some of the qualities of things, including printing, too, there must be refined and delicate.
Traditional recycling
Porcelain of China, Shang and Zhou dynasties appear primitive porcelain, late Eastern Han Dynasty invented a green glazed porcelain, porcelain developed Sui and Tang Dynasties, Song appeared painted porcelain, porcelain sculpture, and a kiln, Ding, Jun, Ru and brother five famous kilns kiln. Meanwhile, the Chinese ancient ceramics in science and technology to achieve three major breakthroughs: selection of raw materials, glaze discovery and temperature increase. But our modern porcelain manufacturing technology has lagged behind in the world, Chinese porcelain has been difficult to break into the high-end stores abroad. How on the spiritual essence of traditional culture and recycling?
"In over 2,000 years of history, the Tang, Song and Ming porcelain of different ages have different characteristics. Were accumulated in the history of porcelain on the integration of the human environment at that time, made a new creation." Creative industry commentator Gu Merlin believes that today's culture has been completely reborn in history, therefore, porcelain and then re-design breakthrough innovation has become increasingly difficult. But Han Kuang porcelain designer has pursued.
"Han Kuang porcelain" is the China Arts and Crafts Master Li Yu swim collection Jingdezhen, Liling, Hunan and other places of potters and craftsmen, in Shanghai created a catch up with international advanced level of manufacturing porcelain, craft porcelain. Since the material, recipes, crafts, modeling, and other aspects of approaching the highest level of contemporary Chinese porcelain works "7501" (Chairman Mao porcelain), and its "white, moist, pure, transparent," the distinctive features by the international and domestic ceramics industry experts generally praised, that "Han Kuang porcelain" with the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany and other countries of the world famous rival.
"Porcelain is the fashion," which is Li Yu has long been advocated tour of view. In the fashion concept, knowledge is no longer on the porcelain traditional concept of its creation should go beyond the traditional cultural symbols, from a cultural spiritual redesign. If the porcelain painting flowers, the ancients would his paintings to life, but can be combined with modern painting techniques and firing process it presents a "decoration" flavor. It not only retained the traditional painting flowers characteristics, but also through its re-creation of the modern consciousness, people have fashion sense. In this concept under the guidance of traditional culture has created another becomes a pattern.
Yu Lee tour seems to show the beauty of the traditional porcelain, porcelain the shape must work hard. How to porcelain to life, you need to line the round-depth study. Li Yu creative porcelain swim in a circular mostly, but not round like a basketball as machinery, but a sense of life's egg, Li Yu has designed a tour "dragon eggs" teapot, teapot belonging to kung fu, its shape follows the traditional teapot features, but in the form of integration into the shape of a dragon egg, through the line of the control, the modern concept of simple beauty of the product into which let out of the Qing kung fu tea taste, exudes a new vitality. "Flying hats bowl" is the traditional porcelain shapes and patterns based on the use Han Kuang porcelain process reengineering, making the bowl caliber reached historical maximum 29 cm, while the color of the glaze in a bowl for drawing and firing. Its innovation is that by placing a light source in the bowl can be seen from the outside Musicians flying scenes, so hats bowl "live" up.
