Silk Legacy from Xiaowen on Vimeo.

This December, Bloomsbury Gallery will host a three-day pop-up event in celebration of the richness of silks from the East.

From Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th December, Bloomsbury Gallery, a stone’s throw away from British Museum, will be transformed into a silk lover’s club with three days of boutique shopping, Chinese classic film screenings, live violin performances, silk painting workshops, and Chinese street food and cocktails, showcasing the best of oriental silk culture and the tastiest of Chinese home cooking.

Bringing back the golden age of Chinoiserie, the pop-up silk shop will feature traditional hand-embroidered silk garments with modern twists, hand-embroidered silk fabrics featuring traditional Chinese motifs, contemporary silk fabrics and accessories, as well as silk brush paintings and various artworks.

位于大英博物馆旁的Bloomsbury画廊将于12月2日至4日举办一场丝绸盛会。在为期三天的活动中，画廊将有手工精品绣衣出售、私人订制旗袍制作、中国经典老电影展映、现场小提琴表演、丝绸绘画讲座、中式小食以及鸡尾酒。在英国不知去哪里寻觅手工订制旗袍和传统中国绣衣？快快报名我们的活动寻找到值得收藏一世的独家订制吧。
