On Saturday, several women wearing traditional costumes strolled along West Lake in Hangzhou, East China's Zhejiang province. Each model weighs over 75kg and drew great attention from tourists.
Unlike the expectations of modern society, full-figured women were more fashionable during the Tang Dynasty (618-907). Women dressed much like the figures in the artistic masterpiece Beauties Wearing Flowers, so these models offered tourists a closer look at traditional costumes and fashion in the Tang Dynasty.
