In those days, a sewing machine was needed in Guangzhou's homes. Almost every family had a good hand at making clothes.

In the early 80s, the material life of the urban residents was still relatively poor. In Guangzhou, there was little clothing sold, and the price of the garments was higher. So the pattern of 2~3 yuan was greatly welcomed by the people of Guangzhou.

Zhao Xingzhong, general manager of Guangzhou Garment Group recalls, "after buying the pattern, people buy cloth with cloth tickets, arrange the pattern on a piece of cloth, and cut it off after cutting the line, that is a piece of clothing."

At that time, the Guangzhou Clothing Research Institute, located on the four road in Zhongshan, was really very impressive.

In addition to selling clothes, the clothing research institute sells some fashionable clothing patterns, so that people can buy them to paint their gourds and tailor their own clothes.

"The fashion of the year looked at Guangzhou, and the fashion center of Guangzhou was the Guangzhou Institute of clothing. The pattern here was based on the style of Hongkong's clothing and changed, so it was very popular.

Every day is a sea of people, and the new style just came out, and it was sold out immediately.

The same thing with patterns is the "fake collar" that has been popular for a while.

Young people nowadays can't imagine what a fake collar is all about.

The fake collar is not a complete dress. It is really a collar. "It is the part on the shoulders that only has no sleeves on the shoulders, and generally it is white.

An old tailor told reporters.

Mr. Huang, a media worker, remembers that in the early days of reform and opening up, because of lack of materials, hard life and expensive shirts, not everyone could own a shirt.

Therefore, the people who love beauty are wearing a false collar to pretend to be false, and they can wear sweaters and other outer garments, so that they can go out respectfully, because the exposed collar part is exactly the same as the shirt.
