乌拉圭尝试用时尚路线来推动中国的羊毛销售

Uruguay tries fashion route to boost wool sale in China

Uruguay wants to boost its sale of wool to China by expanding into fashion and design, its ambassador to China Fernando Lugris recently said while meeting designers from his country in Beijing. Designers Ana Livni and Fernando Escuder are trying to introduce in China the ‘slow fashion’ concept with Uruguayan wool designs that last longer.

This is another way of bringing wool coming from naturally-fed sheep in Uruguay to China, A Chinese daily quoted Lugris as saying.

Since diplomatic relations between the two nations were initiated in 1988, China has become Uruguay's biggest trading partner, as well as the largest importer of wool. China was Uruguay’s top export destination in 2016, accounting for 42.2 per cent of its total export volume.

Livni said she wants her creations to be classic and last longer than fast-fashion brands.

乌拉圭尝试用时尚路线来推动中国的羊毛销售

乌拉圭希望通过向中国扩大服装和设计，将羊毛卖给中国。最近，乌拉圭驻华大使Fernando Lugris在北京与中国设计师会面时表示。设计师安娜•利夫尼(Ana Livni)和费尔南多•埃斯库德(Fernando Escuder)正试图在中国推出“慢时尚”概念，这种概念在乌拉圭羊毛设计中持续时间更长。

《中国日报》引用卢格里斯的话说，这是另一种把乌拉圭自然喂养的绵羊带回中国的方法。

自1988年两国建立外交关系以来，中国已成为乌拉圭最大的贸易伙伴，也是最大的羊毛进口国。2016年，中国是乌拉圭最大的出口目的地，占其出口总额的42.2%。

利夫尼说，她想让自己的作品成为经典，比快时尚品牌更持久。
