Cheongsam
A body-hugging one-piece Chinese dress for women. Also referred to as a mandarin gown. Some waitresses and receptionists in Chinese restaurants over the world wear cheongsam uniforms. They are usually long, often foot-length or floor-length. They have slit high to the waist or hip, usually no sleeves or cap sleeves. They are often made of brightly-colored silk or satin with rich Chinese embroidery.
Embrace the exotic in this Oscar de la Renta Cheongsam-inspired Floral Dress ($5,990).
Share a culture with your pet with traditional Chinese apparel! Choose from cheongsam (formal attire for men) or qi pao (slender-fitting dresses with a high slit on the side for women), styles dating back to the Qing dynasty of the 17th century. Although the cheongsam is traditionally a two-piece outfit, both the pet cheongsam and qi pao are offered as a single piece for easy slipping on and off. Brocade designs with contrasting piping details will surely make your pet the envy of any Chinese New Year celebration!
