Hundred Years Of Qipao Charm Still

A hundred years cheongsam The charm remains.

The role of Qipao to Chinese women is not only to keep the body warm, but also the psychological level. Culture On the other hand, it promotes Chinese women's aesthetic consciousness, open consciousness and self display desire. Considering the great changes that have taken place in China one hundred years ago, the birth of a cheongsam can be regarded as epoch-making.

Three cheongsam worn by Song Qingling

When reporters found Gao Chunming in the exhibition hall of the two floor of the Shanghai art gallery, he was moving out more than 10 plastic boxes with staff members, all of which were old, but very hot cheongsam. To be honest, the first impression is that these cheongsam for some years is not very beautiful, and its luster is already dim. But what is interesting is that the hangers borrowed by the Shanghai Institute of art are almost all big, and those cheongsam can hardly be tied even if they are forced into it. Presumably, women at that time were much more slender than today's "standard women".

Exhibition of Cheongsam in the Shanghai Museum of fine arts. The so-called hundred years, roughly outlines the evolution of Cheongsam in the history of Chinese costumes, which is a gradual brisk melody with a bit of romance. There are cheongsam objects in the exhibition, old calendar and old photos that record the trend of cheongsam era. The cheongsam is divided into five parts: the cheongsam 10 in the late Qing Dynasty, the 10 cheongsam in the early twentieth Century, the 10 cheongsam in 1920s, the 40 cheongsam in 1930s and the 10 modern and Contemporary cheongsam. One hundred years, one hundred.

The exhibition is hosted by Shanghai Textile Holding Group and Shanghai cultural radio, film and Television Bureau, Shanghai Art Institute and Shanghai international. clothing Clothing center and other units.

As a highlight, it is sure to arouse the interest of the audience. The cheongsam, which is worn by three former honorary president Song Qingling, is on display for the first time in the exhibition. Gao Chunming told reporters that there were more than a dozen cheongsam in the memorial hall of Song Qingling's former residence. This time he considered borrowing three pieces from an artistic point of view. One is hemp, one is coffee colored gauze, and one is real silk. The cheongsam of the fragrant gauze is very distinctive, and the necklines and cuffs are all woven, very breathable. Due to the special contribution of Song Qingling's former residence, it is also listed as the organizer of the exhibition.

In addition, the organizers also borrowed 13 cheongsam from the Shanghai Museum of history and borrowed some ornaments from the folk collectors. There are 60 sets of physical and technological videos on the site to show to the audience. According to the reporter's understanding, a small batch of cheongsam collected by the Shanghai Art Institute was collected from Yuan Shikai's descendants. I wonder if this is also included in the exhibition. {page_break}

The old lady came to donate cheongsam before the exhibition.

"The hundred cheongsam exhibited on this exhibition are all handed down to the world, and more than half of them are collected from folk and brotherhood research institutes by me and my colleagues, Zhou Xun, and we have spent 30 years in it." Gao Chun Ming said with great emotion.

Cheongsam and Shanghai are very abyss sources. It can be said that the improved cheongsam was formally unveiled in Shanghai, mature in Shanghai and developed in Shanghai. Shanghai is the birthplace of cheongsam. It can even be said that, as a century image, Shanghai's ladies and gentlemen who shine in Shanghai's background must use the image of cheongsam. Hu Die is so, Zhou Xuan is so, the three sisters of song are so, Eileen Chang and Su Qing are the same. Eileen Chang also made himself a cheongsam for himself. After China's reform and opening up, cheongsam and perm, lipstick and high-heeled leather shoes have become the symbol of fashion returning to the public life. Especially in the film and television works such as "flower time", "love of the world" and "golden powder family", dozens of cheongsam of heroine, replaced by lantern lanterns, greatly aroused the hearts of the audience. Maggie Cheung is undoubtedly the most popular and most popular cheongsam model, and the "golden powder family" used for cheongsam production costs up to HK $1 million.

Just a few days before the exhibition, an old lady found Gao Chunming. The old lady worked for decades in the textile system after being famous. She was an intellectual and had been elected the two model worker. Her mother was a lady of the family and left more than 10 cheongsam. After receiving the news of the exhibition, she wanted to donate cheongsam to the Shanghai Institute of art. Gao Mingchun told reporters: "she said the donation was most reassuring to us, so I chose six after I visited. The old lady didn't want to disclose her name, nor did she want the media to report. She even said she wouldn't even have a donation certificate, and she wouldn't contact me from now on.

In today's materialistic world, there are fewer and fewer people with such high spirits. However, the reporter suggested that the exhibition organizers should invite her to attend the ceremony on the day of the opening ceremony and award the prizes. This is beneficial to the promotion of Chinese civilization and should be carried out by the public.

It is reported that 100 cheongsam will display modern design of pragmatism, aestheticism, Futurism and other styles of new cheongsam to guide the development of Cheongsam in the new century, and establish cheongsam as a new concept of women's dress. Gao Chunming also revealed that Shanghai will make the "100 year Qipao Exhibition" to become an important cultural brand of Shanghai through the dress Festival. The project will also participate in the national intangible cultural heritage exhibition held during this year's Olympic Games, and will strive to become the 2010 Shanghai World Expo exhibition.

At the end of this exhibition, the organizers will also launch a large-scale multimedia fashion show at the closing ceremony of the Shanghai International Fashion Festival on 29 th, the "sea flower - 100 year Qipao" grand performance. The three chef, Gao Chunming, Wen Hong and Yi Hui jointly restored nearly 100 designs of cheongsam of different styles in different one hundred years, which will be a beautiful visual feast.
