BEIJING — In the latest beauty craze sweeping social media in China, women — and some men — are boasting that they are paper thin, by posting photographs of their waists behind a vertical piece of A4 paper.

To qualify, the waist must be entirely hidden by the paper. A piece of A4 paper is 8.3 by 11.7 inches, roughly the size of a sheet of American letter paper. Holding it horizontally is cheating.

With the hashtag #A4Waist and a handful of variations, the trend is attracting hundreds of photographs and thousands of comments, on Weibo and other social media networks like Weixin or WeChat. Even People’s Daily, the Communist party newspaper, is joining in.
