The cheongsam was formed in the 1920s, and some scholars believe that its origin can be traced back to the deep clothes of the pre-Qin and Han Dynasties. Although there are still many disputes about its definition and the time of its creation, it is still one of the most splendid phenomena and forms of China's long history of dress culture.
