Coming into Fashion is running at Beijing's Ullens Center of Contemporary Art after touring 12 cities worldwide since 2012. It runs through March 5.
The exhibition displays a selection of fashion photos from the archives of Conde Nast, the US media company founded in 1909.
Displayed photos survey the evolution of fashion and fashion photography since the early 20th century. It offers a historical perspective of how women were viewed and portrayed, and what social roles they were expected to perform.
Photographers include Horst P. Horst, Erwin Blumenfeld and David Bailey.
The exhibition is curated by Nathalie Herschdorfer, who selected the images from over 8 million in Conde Nast's archives in New York, Paris, Milan and London.
