Chinese Clothes article, links, terms: Now women in Shanghai can always follow the world latest fashion trend. Yet as Chinese people are more and more aware of resuming traditional culture, they choose to wear the traditional dress, Qipao, to show their oriental and mystical beauty. Maoming and Changle Streets are two perpendicular streets in Shanghai, where numerous Qipao shops are located. These shops all have their own characteristics. Some are focused on traditional Qipaos, while others are on new-style Qipaos.

Every piece was such an art work that customers or even window-shoppers like myself were tempted/attracted to try it on. Xu Yulin, a former graduate from the Academy of Arts and Design, of Tsinghua University , operates a Qipao shop ith a partner on Changle Street. Unlike other fashion design students, his interest is solely devoted to the Qipao. He has gained inspiration from antique Qipaos, furniture, sculptures and other traditional Chinese arts. He brings these elements to his Qipao designs, and with a combination of broidery and beads, he creates nostalgic but fashionable Qipaos.

That is to add a short cut of lunate sleeve broad in top and narrow in bottom to the narrow cuff, which is like the shape of a horse-hoof. The sleeves can be rolled up in daily life. However, in the course of hunting and fighting, the sleeves can be dropped to mantle hands and to warm hands as the gloves. At the same time, it doesn't influence pulling the bow and toxophily, so it is also called "arrow sleeves"(in Manchu, it is called "Waha"). After Manchu became the ruler of the center plains, "putting down Waha" became a prescribed act in the Qing Dynasty ceremony. When the officers went to court to call on the emperor or the other princes and dukes, they should at first put down the U-shaped sleeves and then worshiped on bended knees, with both hands on the ground.

She has visited many European countries, and borrows their designs through oil painting and architecture. Yet her understanding of the Qipao tradition surprised me. From the perseverance of older-generation Qipao makers to the originality of young designers, from little tailor shops to modern studios, I can definitely tell that there will be a revival of the Qipao art and Chinese people’s awakened passion for it. This huge market along with more and more customers are a very good sign.
