Northwest Orient Airlines introduced American travelers to Hong Kong with this elegant poster. A woman in a pink cheongsam, the close-fitting dress that became an emblem of Hong Kong style, stands in the foreground while traditional junks sail the harbor behind her. The pairing of fashion and the busy waterfront captures the two sides of the city that fascinated visitors: sophisticated and modern on one hand, a working port full of sails on the other. It is a graceful example of how Northwest Orient used people and place together to make a far-off destination feel inviting.
The bag is made from 10-ounce canvas of 80% recycled cotton and 20% cotton. The recycled fibers are collected from garment-cutting waste and then intertwined with cotton for added strength and durability. Self-fabric handles. Dimensions: 15.75" h x 15.25" w; approx. 240 cubic inches.
