Why are cheongsam split on both sides?

Cheongsam is the robe of the flag-bearer in Qing Dynasty and the dress of aristocrats, while modern cheongsam, which was born in the early 20th century and prevailed in 1930s and 40s, is the representative of women's dress in China. Experts regard the 1920s as the starting point of cheongsam's popularity, which reached its peak in 1930s, and soon spread from the birthplace of Shanghai to all parts of the country. At that time, Shanghai was a blessed place for high-class ladies and high-class socialites. They are keen on swimming, playing golf, flying and riding horses. Their luxurious social life and fashion pursuit doomed the popularity of cheongsam. Because Shanghai has always advocated the Shanghai-style western lifestyle, the "improved cheongsam" appeared relatively late. From concealing the body curve to showing the exquisite and abrupt curvaceous beauty of women, cheongsam has completely got rid of the old model and become one of the fashions with unique national characteristics for women in China.

After years of modification and improvement, cheongsam has become a kind of clothing that can well reflect the curvaceous beauty of women. It uses the most China fabrics, silk and brocade to make the most China clothes-cheongsam, which is worn on China women with thick hair and beautiful figure. The perfect combination of eastern and western aesthetics and oriental charm is amazing. Here, cheongsam has become a symbol that transcends the meaning of general clothing. Why will it become an eternal fashion classic? Here is the answer.

The beauty of cheongsam is an elegant and noble beauty. This cultural taste determined by the connotation of cheongsam limits its popularization and promotion, and at the same time, it also has high requirements for the wearer, not only in physical requirements, but also in the connotation and temperament of the wearer. Moreover, the appearance of cheongsam pays special attention to the background, environment and atmosphere. The beauty of cheongsam is a beauty of distance, a beauty of static elegance.

Cheongsam keeps up with the times, carries civilization, shows self-cultivation and embodies virtue, and has evolved into a gorgeous rainbow between heaven and earth. May cheongsam connect the past and the future, life and art, and spread the vision and charm of beauty among people.

Cheongsam is the most representative traditional fashion for women in China. When it comes to tradition, people always think of the conservatism and closure of feudalism and its imprisonment of women in all aspects. For thousands of years, women in China have been dressed seriously. Until now, serious and formal "professional women's wear" still occupies the main position of women's wear in China.

If the feudal tradition of China for thousands of years has set the highest expectations of women here, then the key word that can best explain everything is "Xianxiu". Good clothes are the only medium to show a good figure.

Human civilization has a long history of 5,000 years, and women's clothing has also changed with the changes of history. Compared with the great changes brought by science and technology to the world, the human body stubbornly maintains its original state. Although this is not a miracle, it provides the possibility for the history of clothing development.

Clothing can't exist in isolation from the human body, and so can cheongsam. Women's head, neck, shoulders, arms, chest, waist, hips, legs, hands and feet are skillfully combined to form a perfect whole.
