Chinese New Year - Lavish Splendor of Costume Design

I chose to write about the clothing for the celebration as the fabrics, colors, designs and accessories are absolutely breathtaking. The costumes for the Chinese New Year are an intricate part of their celebration. I was fortunate enough to have a silk jacket made to my exact size when my son went to China, and the workmanship is fabulous. I sent my measurements in advance of his trip and it fits perfectly, so the costuming seemed a logical choice for my hub.
