[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All over Asia and China people are wearing western clothes and using western furniture. Do you think they ever thought about cultural appropriation? Good lord. [/quote] It's obvious Chairman Mao worried about it. He only went so far as to appropriate the Russian Communist look and gave all the citizen no choice but to wear that Mao outfit for decades. The country had been in a fashion vacuum for so long. I hypothesize that's the reason why still so many Mainlanders remain awkwardly turned out in western garb - clashing patterns (florals don't work with stripes), wearing baseball hats indoors (and no, a D&G branded hat doesn't make it OK), boots in summer, thigh highs in school, wearing white to other people's weddings... that sort of thing. Even the countriest bumpkin feels a need to put on a suit, a bad suit, because he doesn't really know what he's supposed to wear when he's not toiling in the field.[/quote]
