Through an indepth and comprehensive investigation of a representative internationalbased Chinese designer, Angel Chen&amp;rsquo;s fashion show &amp;lsquo;Madam Qing&amp;rsquo;, this paper provides a methodological approach on how a form of traditional culture can be effectively extracted and applied to modern design using the most effective techniques. The central approach examined in this study involves creating aesthetic revolutions by addressing Chinese cultural identity through recreating and modernizing traditional Chinese culture in design. </abstract> <index>Open Science Index 183, 2022</index> </article>
