Red Army uniforms in demand for birthday bash

Hu Yangsheng, a 60-year-old dressmaker, sews a Red Army uniform at home in Nanjing, East China's Jiangsu province, on June 22, 2011. The sewing of 120 uniforms of China's Red Army (1928-1937), has taken Hu's entire family 10 days. China's Communist Party will celebrate its 90th anniversary on July 1 and nationwide performances mean there is great demand for such outfits. The Red Army uniform includes a cap, blouse, trousers and leggings, with a daily rent rate of 30 yuan (US$4.4) and a purchase price of more than 100 yuan. [Photo/CFP]
