Fashion was the hot topic on Weibo over the holiday last week, as young urbanites proudly showed off photos of how they dress before and after traveling home for Spring Festival. The images, which went viral, show what chic city dwellers look like when they DNGAF about their appearance.

During chunyun, the world's largest annual human migration, millions of citizens living in the city return to their hometowns to celebrate Chinese New Year with friends and family. This results in first and second-tier cities becoming virtual ghost towns while urbanites ring in the new year in their smaller, countryside homes.
