The Splendid China: China Intangible Cultural Heritage Fashion Shows was initiated by Prince Kung's Mansion Museum in Beijing and supported by the China National Textile and Apparel Council, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, China Fashion Week organizing committee, and several other institutions.

The 13 fashion shows featured traditional embroideries, silverware, handmade dyes, porcelain, and many other intangible cultural heritages, particularly those from non-Han ethnic groups.
