About cheongsam, there is a saying and I quote: “ God wrote a bible for everyone, but only a cheongsam for Chinese women.” If we can understand this sentence deeply, we will realize that Chinese women indeed show the beauty and lingering charm of “Qipao”.

Cheongsam is striking for its mandarin collar and well-tailored waist. Women in a cheongsam are charming, graceful and noble, the well-cutting silhouettes highlight their nice hour-glass figures.


The beauty of cheongsam is in its unique oriental verve, making it become the classic art in Chinese history and cannot be replaced by other apparels. The quiet, exquisite and beautiful characteristics of eastern women are thoroughly reflected by “Qipao.” Therefore, many Chinese women regard it as the must-have items for attending the great feast.
