As part of the third Shanghai Style Fashion Festival, a fashion show showcasing the city's blend of traditional and modern charm began at Yuyuan Garden on Wednesday.

Hosted by Shanghai International Fashion Federation, the show was staged on the garden's Jiuqu (Zigzag) Bridge and Huxin Ting, a pavilion surrounded by a pond.

Models were dressed in clothing from local maker Jixiang Yijia, a brand launched in 2012 in Shanghai and that specializes in the delicate mixing of Chinese traditional and modern styles.

It is worth noting that this is the second time the Zigzag Bridge has staged a fashion show, following the French fashion house Lanvin's Spring/Summer 2021 collection show in October, 2020.
