A special children's swimsuit fashion show opened in a community in northeastern China's coastal city of Huludao on August 9.

The show preludes the First China (Xingcheng, Huludao) International Swimsuit Festival which is set to kick off in the city from August 16 to 17, which sees much participation from the local citizens.

The festival, themed "The Beauty Leads the Fashion, The Dream Lightens the Life," aims to promote the swimwear industry's upgrades, enhance Huludao's recognition as swimsuit production bases at home and abroad, and fuel the integrated development of the tourism and culture industries.
