One of the traditional female costumes of the Chinese nation, a fashion designed by women in the Republic of China in the first half of the 20th century based on the traditional flag uniforms of Manchu women and Western culture. It is a concrete blend of Eastern and Western cultures. . In the eyes of some Westerners, cheongsam has symbolic meaning as a cultural symbol of Chinese women's clothing. In the strong atmosphere of feudal ethics, it was impossible for women to expose their curves as they do now. Traditional cheongsam has always been cut in straight lines, with the chest, shoulders, waist and hips completely straight, leaving the curves of the female body unexposed. Although the cheongsam is modified from the robe worn by Manchu women, it is also called cheongsam or cheongsam, but it is not a cheongsam. Cheongsam is a fashion with Chinese characteristics, reflecting Western aesthetics and using Western tailoring. Flag dress is the national costume of Manchu women. Most of the flag suits adopt straight lines, with a loose body and slits on both sides. The bust and waist are relatively close to the size of the dress; there are a lot of scroll decorations on the cuffs and necklines. Yellow is the exclusive color of the royal family and is taboo for the common people. The colors of the flags are bright and complex, and the materials used are diverse. Color combinations with high contrast are preferred. Add a few bright lace or colorful tooth scroll designs to the collar, sleeves and tuck placket. Since flag clothing is a kind of flat clothing, rolls become the only design space for flag clothing besides the fabric, so multiple rolls are the most beautiful. In the late Qing Dynasty, "eighteen laces" (eighteen laces) became popular. The patterns of cheongsam in the Qing Dynasty were mostly based on sketching techniques, with dragons, lions, phoenixes, beasts, phoenixes, cranes and birds, plums, orchids, bamboos, chrysanthemums and flowers, as well as the Eight Treasures, the Eight Immortals, fortune, wealth, longevity and happiness, etc. being common themes.

Manchu robe
Cheongsam is a women's fashion during the Republic of China, which evolved from the robe of Manchu women. Since the Manchu people are called "banner people", they are called "cheongsam". From the bans promulgated many times during the Shunzhi and Jiaqing years, the trend of Manchu women imitating Han women's clothing became more and more popular. By the late Qing Dynasty, some Han women also imitated the Manchu costumes. The fusion of Manchu and Han women's clothing styles gradually reduced the differences between the two sides' clothing, which became a prelude to the popularity of cheongsam across the country. From the literal meaning, cheongsam generally refers to the robes worn by bannermen (both men and women). However, only the robes worn by the women of the Eight Banners on a daily basis are closely related to the cheongsam of later generations. The court robes, python robes and other customary attires used as formal attires no longer exist. For the category of "cheongsam". In the Qing Dynasty, women's clothing can be said to coexist with Han and Manchu styles. In the early Qing Dynasty, Manchu women mainly wore long robes, while Han women still wore blouses and skirts. In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the Han and Manchus followed suit; The trend of the Manchus imitating the Han people became more and more popular, and there was even a situation where "the half-mast flags were changed to Han clothes, and the palace robes were cut into short clothes." The trend of the Han people imitating the Manchu clothes also became popular among some high-ranking ladies at this time. The robes popular in ethnic minority areas or nomadic peoples are generally tight and narrow, which is suitable for riding, shooting or other intense activities. This style of robes mostly use left pleats, narrow sleeves, and the body of the robe is more suitable for the body. Historically, the Han people have adopted this narrow-fitting robe style many times. The Hufu riding and shooting style promoted by King Wuling of Zhao is a typical example. Hu clothing was also popular in the Tang Dynasty. During the Kaiyuan and Tianbao years of Tang Dynasty, Hu clothing was popular with Hu Zhuang, Hu Qi and Hu Le. It can be regarded as a large-scale popular example of foreign culture, and it was an "imported product" on the streets of Chang'an. During the periods of rule by ethnic minority regimes such as the Liao, Jin, Yuan and Qing dynasties, well-fitting robes once played the leading role in clothing, although they all experienced or showed a process or trend of becoming more generous. Since the Qing Dynasty lasted the longest, robes can be regarded as typical clothing. During the Shunzhi period (AD 1644), the Qing emperor entered the country and made Beijing his capital, and then unified the country. With the initial stabilization of the regime, the forced shaving of hair and changing of clothes began, setting off a massive bloody massacre. So far, almost all traditional Hanfu clothing has been banned. According to legend, the thousand-year-old Hanfu shape of top and bottom is only reserved for Han women. In dressing at home. Both men and women must wear robes on celebration occasions. There are many types of robes, including court robes, dragon robes, python robes, and casual robes. In the late Qing Dynasty, the robes worn by flag girls had a wider body, straight and strong lines, and reached to the ankles.
"Yuanbao collar" is very commonly used. The collar is high and covers the cheeks and ears. The body of the robe is often embroidered with various patterns. The collar, sleeves, lapel and waistband have multiple wide piping. During the Xianfeng and Tongzhi years, embroidery reached its peak, and some even had entire garments inlaid with lace, making it almost difficult to identify the original fabric. The decoration of the flag girls' robes was so complicated that it almost reached its peak. At this time, the Qing Dynasty was in danger of saving itself. The Westernization faction of the Qing court put forward the national salvation strategy of "Chinese learning as the body and Western learning as the application" and sent a large number of foreign students to study abroad. Western-style student uniforms and hats first appeared among Chinese students. The introduction of Western-style clothing provided another frame of reference for judging beauty and directly affected changes in social clothing concepts. In the future, cheongsam evolved into a new style that combined Chinese and Western styles. It can be said that the changes influenced by the West began here.
Republic of China Cheongsam
The 1930s and 1940s were the golden age of cheongsam and the most glorious period for Chinese women's clothing in modern times. The cheongsam at this time had a slender shape, which was consistent with the silhouette of women's clothing popular in Europe at this time. At this time, the cheongsam has completely transcended the limitations of the flag girl's robe, and is completely a new style of clothing that "combines Chinese and Western styles". First, there was the term "different genre". Parts of the cheongsam are Westernized, and Western-style treatments are used outside the collar and sleeves, such as lotus leaf collars, Western-style lapels, lotus sleeves, etc., or double plackets with left and right plackets. Although the application of these reforms was not widespread, they showed the freedom of thought of people at that time, and the original formula of cheongsam no longer had to be followed. The matching of cheongsam and Western-style jackets is also a feature of the "special style", which makes cheongsam enter the international clothing family and can be combined with a variety of modern clothing. In current words, it has become "internationalized and modernized." In the 1920s, the cheongsam was still wide and straight; echoing the inverted sleeves that were popular in Qinshi, the hem of the cheongsam was relatively large, and the entire body of the cheongsam also had an "inverted" shape. But the shoulders, chest and even waist have shown a trend of fitting. Zhang Ailing said: "The early rise of cheongsam was cold and square, with a Puritan style." The "early rise" of this female writer who is good at observing and describing fashion, if she refers to the 1920s, then "cold and square" "It must be an impression from her childhood. In the late 1930s, "improved cheongsam" appeared. The cutting method and structure of the cheongsam are more Westernized. The use of chest darts and waist darts makes the cheongsam more fitted. At the same time, shoulder seams and sleeves appear to make the shoulders and armpits more fitted. Some people also use softer shoulder pads, which are called "beauty shoulders". This shows that women are beginning to abandon the old ideal shape characterized by slender shoulders. These tailoring and structural changes were all completed in Shanghai. Mr. Jin Taijun, a descendant of Shanghai Hongxiang Company, firmly believes in this. Although he himself has not personally experienced all of this process, when he was working at Hongxiang in the 1940s, he could still get a lot of information about this from his old master. At this time, the cheongsam has matured and has been finalized. The cheongsam in the future will no longer be able to escape the basic shape determined by the cheongsam in the 1930s. It can only make some changes in length, fatness and decoration. The cheongsam loved by women all over the world is typified by the cheongsam of the 1930s. The cheongsam of the 1930s was modeled after the Shanghai style cheongsam. At that time, Shanghai was the center of Asian fashion and a paradise for socialites. The Revolution of 1911 overthrew the last feudal dynasty in Chinese history, clearing political obstacles for the popularization of Western-style clothing in China. At the same time, it also put aside the traditional and harsh concepts of etiquette and customs, and lifted all the strict hierarchies in uniforms. Orange. Clothing is moving towards civilianization and internationalization. Teresa Teng's cheongsam photo
The free transformation has come naturally, and the cheongsam has thus relieved the heavy burden of tradition. The old-style cheongsam robe was abandoned, and the new cheongsam began to be formed in the chaotic times. In the 1920s, influenced by Western clothing, the improved cheongsam gradually became popular among women. This kind of cheongsam was introduced into thousands of households by the Han people after absorbing Western clothing styles and through continuous Chinese improvement. There are many styles of cheongsam. The placket includes Ruyi placket, Pipa placket, oblique placket, and double placket; the collar includes high collar, low collar, and no collar; the cuffs include long sleeves, short sleeves, and sleeveless; and the slits include high slits and low slits. Slits; there are also long cheongsam, short cheongsam, sandwich cheongsam, single cheongsam, etc. The improved cheongsam almost became the standard clothing for Chinese women in the 1930s.
At this time, the fashion center had already moved from Su and Yang to Shanghai. Shanghai is also an important city for women seeking liberation. Missionaries, businessmen, and revolutionaries competed to establish women's schools, setting off a wave of women's rights movements. The social climate seeking liberation cleaned up the stereotypes in clothing and makeup, tending to be simple, elegant in color, and emphasizing the natural beauty of women. . The cheongsam originally appeared in the form of a vest, which was as long as the instep and was added to a short coat. Later, the long vest was changed into a style with sleeves, which became the prototype of the new cheongsam. It is said that the Shanghai female students who pioneered the popularity of cheongsam are the originators of the popularity of cheongsam. At that time, female students, as representatives of intellectual women, became the ideal image of society. They were symbols of civilization and pioneers of fashion. Even celebrities and fashionable figures in society all dressed up as female students. The 1930s and 1940s were the cheongsam's heyday. The improved cheongsam that emerged at this time incorporated Western tailoring methods into its structure, making the cheongsam more fitted. Although the cheongsam was born out of the Qing Dynasty flag women's robes, it has become different from the old system and has become the standard clothing for modern Chinese women that combines Chinese and Western clothing characteristics. Cheongsam
Cheongsam originated from the robes worn by the bannermen, and Beijing is where the largest number of bannermen live. Therefore, until the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the cheongsam belonged to the Beijing style culture. The robes worn by bannermen in the Qing Dynasty included men's robes and women's robes. However, since cheongsam is women's clothing, it can also be said that cheongsam originated from the robe worn by bannerwomen. In the early Qing Dynasty, the robe of the flag girl, which was slim, long, tight, narrow and simple with small sleeves, had become wide and multi-layered by the late Qing Dynasty. After the Revolution of 1911, many bannermen abandoned their robes and wore coats and trousers. Therefore, in the 10s of the 20th century, there were very few people wearing cheongsam, and there was a slight recovery in the 1920s. The cheongsam has undergone qualitative changes after the Ding Revolution, and the main place where this change occurred was Shanghai. There are three main differences between the cheongsam of the flag girls in the late Qing Dynasty and the cheongsam of the Republic of China: 1. The robe of the flag girls is wide and straight and does not reveal the figure; the cheongsam of the Republic of China is darted and narrowed in the waist to show the body shape or female curves. 2. The flag girl's robe wears trousers, with embroidered trousers legs visible at the slits; the Republic of China cheongsam wears underwear and stockings, with the legs exposed at the slits. 3. The fabrics of the cheongsam of the flag girls are mostly heavy brocade or other jacquard fabrics, and the decoration is complicated; the fabrics of the cheongsam of the Republic of China are lighter and thinner, there are more printed fabrics, and the decoration is simpler. It is these three differences that have caused a qualitative change in cheongsam - from a traditional robe to a new variety comparable to Western skirts. Robes are outerwear, a type of clothing that emphasizes functions (cold protection, body covering, status expression, etc.), and its aesthetic meaning is traditional and subtle. Skirts, robe in French or one-piece dress in English, have a history similar to Chinese robes and a tradition of emphasizing functionality, but expressing the female body curve is also one of its long traditions; and modern skirts This feature is strengthened, changing from implicit, idealized, and partial expression to exposure, sexy, and full-body expression. For all the subtle changes in the female body that modern Western skirts can do, the Republican cheongsam is unparalleled. After the founding of New China, the number of women wearing cheongsam in mainland China decreased sharply. A famous person once said with regret: "For women with better figures, not being able to wear cheongsam is really a big loss!" In 1911, the revolution of 1911 suddenly broke out, overthrowing the Manchu rulers and destroying the history of China. The last feudal dynasty cleared political obstacles for the popularization of Western-style clothing in China. At the same time, it also put aside the traditional and harsh concepts of etiquette and customs, and lifted all the strict hierarchical constraints on uniforms. The free transformation of clothing towards civilianization and internationalization has come naturally, and the cheongsam has thus relieved the heavy burden of tradition. Due to the demise of the Manchu ruling regime, very few people wore cheongsam at this time. Western and Chinese costumes coexist bustlingly. The old-style cheongsam robe was abandoned, and the new cheongsam began to be formed in the chaotic times. The beginning of the Republic of China - the cheongsam that passed quietly. At the beginning of the 20th century, China's political situation was in turmoil. The Revolution of 1911 abolished the monarchy, established the Republic of China, cut braids, changed clothes, overthrew the Manchu feudal rulers, and sent the hierarchy of crowns and uniforms belonging to the feudal dynasty into the history museum. All these created conditions for the extension of the new style of cheongsam. .

After the Revolution of 1911, the characteristic attires of flag girls such as "dala wing" and "flower pot bottom" disappeared overnight... In 1924, the last emperor Puyi was expelled from the Forbidden City, and the Qing Dynasty The crown uniform became the final song. Around 1920, the spring wave of the New Culture Movement awakened people's desire for beauty. During this period, Shanghai became a new showcase for women's cosmetics. The pursuit of novel and fashionable clothing became the social trend at that time. Fashionable women were sensitive to both politics and clothing fashion. Influenced by Japanese clothing, "civilized new clothes" became popular in the 1910s and early 1920s, and black skirts, favored by female students and teachers, became fashionable. 1920s - Inverted sleeves and new styles. In the 1910s and early 1920s, there was a period of "civilized new clothes" among urban women. The 1930s - the golden age (i) The period from the 1920s to the 1940s was the most glorious period for Chinese women's clothing in modern times, and the 1930s can be said to be the splendid peak of this period. It was at this time that the cheongsam established its irreplaceable and important position on the women's clothing stage and became a typical representative of Chinese women's clothing. The 1940s - the golden age (ii) The process of cheongsam becoming classic can be said to have been basically completed in the 1930s, and the 1940s was the continuation of its golden age in time. From the 1920s to the 1940s, it was the most glorious period for Chinese women's clothing in modern times, and the 1930s can be said to be the peak of this period. It was at this time that the cheongsam established its irreplaceable and important position on the women's clothing stage and became a typical representative of Chinese women's clothing. After entering the 1930s, the shape of the cheongsam was perfect and mature, and it can be called a classic. It has been difficult for future cheongsams to break out of this silhouette. They can only make slight changes in length, weight and decoration... The cheongsam is a household name all over the world. The cheongsam called Chinese dress (Shanghai-style cheongsam) actually refers to the cheongsam of the 1930s. Cheongsam culture was completed in the 1930s, and the 1930s was the golden age of cheongsam. It can be said that only then did China have real fashion, fashion in the modern sense. The steady input of foreign clothing materials, the clothing columns created by major newspapers and magazines, and the popular monthly fashion pictures of beautiful women all undoubtedly promoted the emergence and popularity of fashion. Because the slender figure of the cheongsam just caters to the slim and exquisite figure characteristics of southern women, it is very popular in Shanghai... And the Shanghai-style cheongsam with the characteristics of Western clothing has naturally become popular all over the country from Shanghai. In this way, as an important representative of Shanghai-style culture, Shanghai-style cheongsam became the mainstream of cheongsam in the 1930s. The cheongsam of the 1930s we are talking about is Shanghai-style cheongsam. The improved cheongsam that appeared in the late 1930s incorporated Western tailoring methods into its structure, making the cheongsam more fitted. Although the cheongsam was born out of the Qing Dynasty flag women's robes, it is completely different from the old system and has become the standard clothing of modern Chinese women that combines Chinese and Western clothing characteristics... At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, people's pursuit of the beauty of clothing has completely transformed into a fanaticism for revolutionary work. The leisurely and comfortable lady image represented by cheongsam has lost its living space in this atmosphere...
Modern cheongsam
In the early 20th century, it was popular to wear bell-shaped wide sleeves underneath Short jacket, sleeveless long vest with front and back hems that reach the floor. Since then, some changes have been made to the sides, sleeves, lapels, collars, etc. of the cheongsam, decorations have been added, and complex changes have occurred. However, it still maintains the straight and wide style of the old-style cheongsam vest, and adopts the traditional straight-line tailoring method, which does not reveal the slim figure of women. Photos of Liu Yifei's cheongsam
In the late 1920s and 1930s, the cheongsam changed repeatedly in terms of length, width, slits, long sleeves and short sleeves, and high and low collars. In 1929, influenced by European and American short skirts, the original moderate-length cheongsam began to become shorter, with the hem shortened to the knees and the cuffs shortened and smaller. Later, there were school uniform-style cheongsams with the hem reduced to 1 inch above the knees and Western-style sleeves. This change was criticized, and after 1931, cheongsam began to become longer and the hem sagging. In the mid-1930s, it reached its peak, with the bottom of the robe falling to the floor to cover the feet, which was called "floor-sweeping cheongsam." The sleeves of the cheongsam, which originally covered the wrists, were shortened to the elbows.
After that, the sleeve length became shorter and shorter, shrinking to two inches below the shoulder, and after 1936, it was almost sleeveless. Qing Dynasty flag dress did not have slits. After the appearance of cheongsam, cheongsam also quietly had low slits on the left side when shortening the sleeves. Later, the panties opened higher and higher, gradually reaching the knees and reaching the thighs. Due to some objections, the robe was once lowered to below the knees. However, as soon as the pressure of public opinion decreased, the number of cheongsams with slits quickly increased. After 1933, cheongsam with large slits became popular. The traditional cheongsam has a straight line up and down, plus a high stiff collar. In the early 1930s, the waistline of the robe began to shrink over time, and after 1934, the curves of the female figure were finally revealed. The high collars that reached the ears also gradually became shorter, and later some became collarless cheongsams. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, people's pursuit of beautiful clothing has completely transformed into fanaticism for revolutionary work. The leisurely and comfortable lady image represented by cheongsam has lost its living space in this atmosphere... The 1950s - There was also a brilliant moment. In the era when the people were the masters of the country, if clothing was also popular, then the dominance of fashion Has turned to civilians. By 1956, it is said that a leader of the former Soviet Union proposed during a visit to China that Chinese people's clothing should reflect the new face of the prosperous socialism. Therefore, the government called on "everyone to wear floral clothes." At this time, the cheongsam that appeared was more colorful than before A healthy and natural temperament. Not flirtatious, not delicate, not morbid, in line with the "beautiful and elegant" standards of the time, and more practical... The 1960s and 1970s - the neglected 20 years from 1966 to 1976 The "Cultural Revolution" was a catastrophe for traditional culture and a disaster for the cheongsam. The 1980s and 1990s - the glory will never be restored. Throughout the 1980s, some people have been predicting that the cheongsam will become popular, especially in the 1980s and 1990s, when the ideal image of women has changed. With the changes, the tall and slender figure with flat shoulders and narrow hips is desired by people. As the cheongsam that best reflects this perfect figure, it has room for survival and development. It is said that the cheongsam, which was very popular in the past, will return to people again. But surprisingly, the cheongsam has not become popular again, but only a few people are wearing it... The heyday of the cheongsam has gone, and it has been neglected for 30 years. It seems a bit outdated in the country that has been opened up since the 1980s. However, in the 1980s and 1990s, a "uniform cheongsam" with professional symbolic significance appeared, and was worn by hostesses, reception ladies, and female waiters in entertainment venues and hotels and restaurants for publicity and promotion purposes. Cheongsam. This kind of cheongsam is mostly made of chemical fiber imitation silk fabrics, with bright colors, high slits and rough workmanship. This really damages the good image of cheongsam in people's minds, and people dare not wear cheongsam rashly in order to distinguish themselves. Now...Modern cheongsam (12 photos) Since the 1990s, the ideal image of women has changed. The tall and slender figure with flat shoulders and narrow hips is the most desirable figure in China. The representative of fashion, cheongsam, has once again attracted people's attention. In foreign countries, there are many design masters who use cheongsam as inspiration to launch cheongsam with international flavor, or even a combination of Chinese cheongsam and European evening dress. The changes in the cheongsam in the 1930s and 1940s were mainly reflected in the changes in the choice of fabrics and decorations, as well as the changes in length and slits, as the position of the skirt was an important feature of women's clothing. , the cycloid is the most important style line. In Europe, the cycloid of women's clothing in the 1930s has always been low, while the long skirt is a characteristic of the 1930s and is a symbol of women's clothing in the 1920s and 1930s. It is also very long. In 1931 and 1932, due to the influence of the 1920s, the hem position was higher. From 1932 to 1938, the cheongsam was always very long, especially in Shanghai, the hem was almost floor-length. The cheongsam is very popular. This shows that the popularity of Shanghai-style cheongsam is almost synchronized with that of international women's clothing. cheongsam.

Overview
Classical cheongsam mostly adopts straight lines, loose body, slits on both sides, chest and waist circumference and skirt The size ratio is relatively close. The Beijing style and Shanghai style of cheongsam represent two styles of art and culture. The Shanghai-style style is characterized by absorbing Western arts, is innovative, flexible and diverse, and has a strong commercial atmosphere; the Beijing-style style has an official style and appears reserved and concise. Art is a social ideology that concretely reflects social life and expresses the author's thoughts and feelings by shaping images. Cheongsam
Designers and Cheongsam After the evolution in the first half of the 20th century, the various basic characteristics and components of the cheongsam have gradually stabilized. The cheongsam has become a classic women's clothing. Classics are relatively stable, while fashion is ever-changing. But fashion designers often seek inspiration from the treasure trove of classics, and cheongsam is also one of the sources of inspiration for designers. Cheongsam is a traditional fashion for Chinese women that emerged in modern times, but it is not an official traditional national costume. It has both a vicissitudes of the past and a brand-new present. The cheongsam itself has a certain historical significance and is highly appreciated, so it has a certain collection value. Although fewer women wear cheongsam in modern times, many parts of modern cheongsam still maintain the traditional charm while reflecting the beauty of fashion. The aesthetic characteristics of Republican cheongsam that are consistent with those of Western clothing are not accidental. At that time, Shanghai, a metropolis with a mixture of Chinese and Western cultures, was the most suitable birthplace. Now it may be difficult for us to find conclusive evidence that the cheongsam of the Republic of China was born in Shanghai, but we can still conclude that the Shanghai-style cheongsam is a typical example of cheongsam of the Republic of China. If we are a little bolder, we can further assume that modern cheongsam, or cheongsam in the right sense, is Shanghai-style cheongsam. Because, in the minds of ordinary people, the association or image evoked by the word cheongsam is the Shanghai-style cheongsam of the 1930s and 1940s.
