The social justice warriors are attacking a good looking young woman for wearing a prom dress with some Chinese style to it. Despicable. Its a good looking dress, makes her look good. You ought to be able to select your prom dress on how it looks on you, not whether SJW fanatics will dump on you for your choice.
Western civilization has been very effective over the centuries at adopting important technical ideas from other cultures. Magnetic compass, which vastly improved the odds of your ship returning safely, came from China, and only appears in Western literature in the time of King Richard the Lionheart. Gunpowder also came from China, although the idea of putting it into cannon is probably a western idea. Some early cannon were taken to the battle of Agincourt in 1415.
I am in favor of cultural appropriation. If other cultures have good ideas, or well styled garments, or well cooked food (chili, pizza,bleu cheese,lots of other goodies) we ought to adopt them.
