What is He Xiu?

He Xiu dress, also known as dragon and phoenix dress, is a kind of wedding bride's dress in China in Qing Dynasty.

The production method of He Xiu's clothing is more complicated, and now it is most famous for Chaoshan handcraft. Because of the popularity of the 200 1 TV series "Orange is Red", the clothes worn by the heroine He Xiu (played by Zhou Xun) are called "He Xiufu" by some people.

He Xiu clothing style:

The "coat" of He Xiu's clothes refers to the double-breasted clothes on the upper body, while the "skirt" refers to the long skirt on the lower body.

Before the 1970s, skirts and dresses were "black dresses and red dresses", and later they evolved into "red dresses and red skirts". Previous jackets were cut in Tang suit, with straight shoulders, wide body and buttons. Now the popular style has been improved to suit shoulders, waist, middle sleeves and zipper design, which has become more fashionable and comfortable.
