Abstract:Fashion is sometimes a forced trend. Some become fashionable because of inexplicable popularization, while others become popular classics because of practicality. Masks are one of the most popular words and objects in the Gengzi year. For the discussion of masks, the relationship among the practicality, popularity and fashion of current masks is analyzed based on the summary of their formation and development. On this account, the anticipation and thinking about current and future mask designs are gradually elicited through a series of masks with two types of themes.
