On
September 2, Shanghai International Fashion Education Center (SIFEC) held the
opening ceremony for its 70th Anniversary Celebration and 2025 Teachers’ Day
Event Month. Former school leaders, model workers, advanced representatives,
past anniversary staff, and all current faculty gathered to honor SIFEC’s
history and look ahead to its future.


The
ceremony opened at 10:00 a.m. with a keynote address by Lyu Wenjun, Party Secretary
and Chairwoman of SIFEC. In her speech, she recalled the school’s
journey since its founding in 1955. Over the past seven decades, SIFEC has
grown from modest beginnings into a leading institution in fashion and
vocational education, nurturing generations of professionals. Looking ahead,
the school reaffirmed its mission of cultivating talent, advancing reform and
innovation, and contributing to both fashion education and leadership training.


A specially produced historical video offered a vivid retrospective, presenting archival photos, alumni interviews, and scenes from campus life that captured the dedication and achievements of SIFEC’s community across generations.


The “Passing the Torch” mentorship signing ceremony followed, pairing senior faculty with younger teachers to symbolize the transmission of professional excellence and commitment to education.

Innovation also featured prominently with the premiere of “SIFEC Tour”, a 3D teaching video that integrated digital technology and fashion education, reflecting the institution’s exploration of new teaching models and virtual environments.

In a congratulatory video message, Ji Shengjun, Party Secretary, Chairman and President of Orient International (Holding), acknowledged SIFEC’s contribution to talent development and extended best wishes for its continued success.

The
ceremony, solemn yet inspiring, paid tribute to seven decades of progress while
setting a bold vision for the future. SIFEC’s Anniversary Month runs from September
2 to 29. A series of academic forums, industry lectures, student exhibitions,
and other activities will take place during this period. The school warmly
welcomes institutions and partners from China and abroad to visit and witness
SIFEC’s achievements.
