A rural Chinese woman has gained online fame for her dresses made from natural materials such as peanut shells, corn leaves, red beans, sweet potatoes, and corn kernels.





A woman from Guangxi Province has gained online popularity thanks to her creativity. Her online account, known as Village Magical Treasure, has over 152,000 followers. She posts videos of her creations made from materials grown on her family's farmland. She shows off her unique outfits in an impromptu fashion show in the fields. She proudly calls her style "rural fashion." Currently, her account has 178 original videos.



One video went viral, in which she shows off a dress made entirely of peanut shells. It is also accessorized with a tie made of red beans. The video, in which the "rural fashion designer" strolls through the fields in this outfit, has garnered over 180,000 likes. In another, she showcased a dragon-shaped outfit made of corn leaves and a crown made of corn kernels while reciting lines from the popular 2015 Chinese television drama "The Legend of Mi Yue."

The blogger has also hosted several fashion shows, where she presented outfits such as the "sweet potato dress" and the "long bean outfit."



The peanut handbag should become a trend

She explained that she has no formal training in art or design, and all the materials for her outfits are grown by elderly members of her family. She calls it a hobby, through which she contributes to the promotion of local agricultural products.

"Since childhood, I've loved sewing clothes, always using eco-friendly materials, like vegetables or recycled plastic bags." “Whenever I see an abundance of materials, it inspires me to create outfits,” she shared.
