In recent years, China’s fashion industry has been dominated by a petite craze that has resulted in the shrinking of women’s clothing. Young Chinese women are squeezing into ultra-petite outfits that are sometimes smaller than children’s clothing.
This shift to extra-small sizes has been fueled by a growing obsession among some Chinese women to look ultra-skinny.
A series of unrealistic body standards advocating the ideal A4 waist and the perfect L-shaped shoulders have led many to experience body image anxiety and engage in extreme fasting and overly intense exercise.
