At the same time, the performance of materials should be improved through scientific research and development." Zhao Liya, deputy general manager and design director of Zhejiang Balut Garment Co., Ltd., said that the essence of clothing is to serve the wearer and meet their comfort and functional needs, Then comes decorative.
