Cheongsam, the flavor of Shanghai

The beauty of old Shanghai is represented by one word, not cheongsam.

In the sound and color of the Baile Gate, singing and dancing, slowly walking is wearing a cheongsam style of socialite.

Cheongsam, in the unique old Shanghai alley, Shikumen, it seems that this thing is born of Shanghai. The cheongsam is a symbol of Shanghai women in that era.

When you think of the old Shanghai, the old movies of the Republican period appear in your mind, wearing cheongsam swaying beauty, that belongs to the unique flavor of Shanghai only.

Shanghai has a cheongsam complex, which was born in the Qing Dynasty and grew up in Shanghai.

In the 1920s, the Shanghai clothing industry absorbed the Western fashion elements, improved the cheongsam, the Oriental women's softness and beauty of the experience of the fullest. The cheongsam is specifically tailored for Oriental women, wearing in the Western woman on the body is less unique flavor.

The unique charm of the Oriental woman wearing the cheongsam, on the contrary, is derived from their own shortcomings, the Oriental woman waist long, hip position is low. And the cheongsam happens to highlight precisely the curve of the human waist and hips, so the waist long to wear a cheongsam is the most beautiful.

The charm of the cheongsam is carried forward in Shanghai Bund, once every Shanghai woman was proud to have a cheongsam.

Hairstyle: vintage coiffure and simple twisted braid.

Old Shanghai students, wearing cheongsam mostly braided with two simple twisted braids, youthful and innocent and lovely.

Retro coiffure is very suitable for cheongsam, swaying woman, flavor slowly. The more stories and experiences of women, wearing a cheongsam is more beautiful, sideburns edge of the curls added flirtatious flavor, let a person can not stop.

Underwear: non-marking underwear.

The cheongsam is a close-fitting garment, the curve is revealed, so there must be a choice of non-marking underwear. Otherwise, the traces of underwear exposure, the beauty of a big discount. Therefore, it is important to choose a set of fitted underwear.

Stockings: black or flesh-colored stockings.

It has always been felt that the birth of stockings is prepared for the cheongsam, wearing stockings and cheongsam is the most compatible.

Shoes: wear velvet or satin shoes.

The color of the shoes can not be too flowery, choose plain color is better.

Color: the color of the whole body.

The color scheme here is not only the color of the cheongsam, but also the color of the hair, the color of the makeup, the color of the shoes, the color of the bag you carry at any time, and so on, all of which are very important, and it is the most beautiful cheongsam that is just right.

The most important requirement: body.

Standard cheongsam figure: the neck should be slender, so that the neckline looks good; slinky shoulders to wear cheongsam look good, tiger back and bear waist is not suitable; chest should be moderate, to be just right, too big or too small is not good; waist should be thin, buttocks should be plump, look curvy; height should be just right, 160 to 170 cm of height is most suitable.

Because the cheongsam fits the body, the requirements for the body are higher. To have a cheongsam that fits you perfectly, you can customize a set of cheongsams to wear your own style.

The woman who put on the cheongsam is like a gorgeous woman flower, blooming in the years of flavor, I can feel the dark fragrance of the years, the quiet of the years.

I think no woman in the world will refuse the cheongsam, unless you do not love beauty. That kind of beauty, enough to look down on all beings.
