The Moving Story Of Chinese Cheongsam Reborn To Plate Shanghai

Cheongsam in Shanghai is like Lafite in Bordeaux.

No one can say clearly who has done it.

The two complement each other. No one knows whether the cheongsam has made the night Shanghai look graceful, or the night Shanghai has chew the cheongsam.

A story about cheongsam

Not long ago, I heard a sad story about cheongsam from a friend. You can tell the story of cheongsam, or the story of a great father's deep love for his daughter.

At that time, China was still in a precarious age. Cheongsam is almost an impossible dream for an ordinary family.

In order to satisfy her daughter's dream of a silk cheongsam, a father worked hard every day during the day, and secretly sold some pillowcases and other things in the spare time to sell them in the evenings.

Even the 22 small wines that must be drunk at dinner are saved.

However, in order to be suspicious of his family, he put the boiled water into the pot, or two cups a day, pretending to be very fond of drinking.

It was such a father who left the world when he finally saved enough money to buy cloth to make cheongsam. The cheongsam exchanged for his father's life was not only a cheongsam but changed into a love, a dream and a strength.

There are many such touching stories behind cheongsam.

And for Chinese women, it has changed from a dress to a spiritual symbol. In a sense, it is equivalent to elegance and dignity.

Cheongsam and Shanghai

As early as the 20s of last century, the fashion center was moved from Su and yang to Shanghai.

The Shanghai port, which is open to the commercial port, is located in the same place, and the five parties live together.

Shanghai is also a major town for women to seek liberation.

Clothing decoration swept the Qing style of pretense, tending to be concise, tonal striving for elegance, focusing on embody the natural beauty of women.

It is said that the most popular female star in Shanghai is the initiator of cheongsam.

At that time, the female stars, as the representatives of women, became the ideal image of the society. They were the forerunner of fashion, so that celebrities such as celebrities were following the fashion of the female stars. At that time, famous female stars such as Zhou Xuan and Hu Die were dressed in Qipao to attend important occasions, making cheongsam gradually become the pronoun that could represent China's beauty.

In 30s and 40s, the cheongsam was in its prime period. The improved cheongsam appeared in the late 30s and absorbed the western style cutting method in the structure, which made the robe fit more appropriately.

In the 40s of last century, Eileen Chang used to wear "Silk Floral cheongsam" and "elegant colors" to bring her sensitive colors, rhythms and emotions to the literary world.

Although the cheongsam is born out of the Qing banner gown, it is different from the old system, and becomes the modern Chinese woman's standard dress with the characteristics of Chinese and Western dress.

Chinese designers shine brilliantly on the international stage. Cheongsam, as the most distinctive clothing representative in China, has been repeatedly re interpreted by designers, and new flowers have emerged from the ancient history.

More and more international movie stars sought after him. Fan Bingbing appeared on the Cannes Film Festival with the bright yellow "Oriental auspicious clouds", which made the world once again appreciate the style of Chinese cheongsam, and once again won the worldwide praise for cheongsam.
