Qipao birthplace

Beijing. Cheongsam is the traditional dress of China women in China and even the world. It is one of the most splendid phenomena and forms in China's long costume culture. In the Republic of China, the name "Cheongsam" finally became popular, because throughout the Qing Dynasty, the dress of Han women still retained the traditional system of "going up and down" by Han women. Ordinary women generally don't wear robes, except aristocratic women's dresses. Flag women should wear robes regardless of aristocratic women's dresses or ordinary women's daily clothes.

Beijing. Cheongsam, the traditional dress of women in China and even China in the world, is known as the quintessence of China and the national costume of women. It is one of the most splendid phenomena and forms in China's long costume culture. In the Republic of China, the name "Cheongsam" finally became popular, because throughout the Qing Dynasty, the dress of Han women still retained the traditional system of "going up and down" by Han women. Ordinary women generally don't wear robes, except aristocratic women's dresses. Flag women should wear robes regardless of aristocratic women's dresses or ordinary women's daily clothes. Therefore, under the influence of nearly 300 years, ordinary people have become accustomed to the historical memory of "women wear robes = women's robes", so when the cheongsam of the Republic of China began to appear, it would give ordinary people an association, that is, "cheongsam". In fact, the first batch of cheongsam in the Republic of China did not recognize the name "cheongsam", but "only called it a gown, robe or robe, confused with men's wear. On February 27th, 1926, there was a short article "No Cheongsam" in Shanghai Republic Daily, and it was suggested to change its name to "Hanpao". Someone suggested wearing a robe, circled it, and finally called cheongsam.
