Nowadays, more and more Chinese brides choose the Cheongsam Dresses as their wedding dress which not because Chinese culture influence but the beauty and elegant designs of Cheongsam show perfectly the brides figure on their wedding days. Usually, the brides will wear in the red colour of Cheongsam and embroidered with gold dragon and phoenix symbol which related with Chinese belief that will bring good luck for the couples. This similar Cheongsam also will choose for ladies as festival dress during Chinese New Year. Besides that, any social function party such as birthday party, wedding party, annual dinner party, full moon party, festival celebrities' party, ladies can choose this Cheongsam dress to attend as formal or informal dress.
The cheongsam is a traditional chinese dress that has a long history since its inception. Cheongsam as they are known today means 'long dress', but they were originally known as qipao. They first appeared in the 17th century China during the Qing Dynasty in its basic form. It was basically a one-piece suit dress that covered the wearer from neck to foot and were long-sleeved. There were some variants that consisted of a two-piece dress set, a pair of trousers with long overdress. QiPaos are made out of many materials, with the high end ones made out of beads (like the one I wore for my wedding) and are often custom made. In weddings, the bride will often have multiple QiPaos. The traditional color for weddings is Red (a good luck color in Chinese). In the movie, In The Mood For Love, the female protagonist wears beautiful QiPaos.
The modern Cheongsam Dress quick links is a piece of chinese clothing that is considered quite beauty and extremely feminine. As such they are ideally worn at certain social functions where the lady wants to stand out from the crowd and wear something a little different. There are so many styles today that some could be worn day to day but more often than not, these chinese dresses are saved for very special occasions. Most cheongsam dresses are bought online from Internet retailers and are usually made in China but shipped worldwide. A cheongsam chinese dress made anywhere but China just wouldn't be the same!
When we feel proud of the modern fashion, at the same time, we will take the classic style into heart especially for nostalgic person, like me. However, China fashion everytime creates a flair of simple and quiet charm, elegance and attraction. Traditional beautiful China costumes are known in the Mandarin tongue as the qipao dress. Nearly all good Chinese red dresses are custom made so that they can emphasize every good part and belittle any problematic part of woman's figure.
