About:Dress Code in China

I'm going to China this August, for a conference. They told us to dress nicely. As you stated, Westerns dress differently from Easterns. What would be proper wear to a conference? Also, there's going to be a formal and in an email we got, they said dress beautifully. How should we dress, because for Westerners, most wear showy dresses and Chinese definition is probably differnt.
Thanks so much for any response.

In my opinion, you should prepare three suits of clothes. First is the business suits. Most probably, the people will dress formal in a conference. Second is a beautiful dress, you can bring the one which you think is the most beautiful whether it is showy or not. Cause you may have dinner or party after conference. Then it is not suitable to wear business suits again, you can change for your dress. Third is the casual clothes. If you want to visit some places in China, you'd better take some casual clothes, which will make your more comfortable.
By the way, Chinese people are not so conservative as before. Showy dresses are quite ok!
