Asia's largest fashion trade fair, China International Fashion Fair Chic, is introducing a number of new changes in honor of its move to Shanghai, after being based in Beijing for 22 years.

Running from March 18 to 20, 2015 the 23rd edition of Chic will be held at the National Convention and Exhibition Center (NECC), one of the most modern fairgrounds which spans 500,000 square meters. Chic Shanghai will be running simultaneously with Intertextile at the NECC, offering visitors the chance to see the apparel trade event.

The upcoming event will take place in four different halls, covering a total of 108,000 square meters and see the segmentation of separate areas, with a new section named 'International Fashion Journey'.
