Explore the story behind two names for one magnificent garment — our qipao dress vs cheongsam collection celebrates the rich cultural history of China’s most iconic fashion piece while showcasing the most beautiful contemporary interpretations available today. A qipao dress and a cheongsam are the same garment — the difference lies purely in language and regional usage. Qipao (旗袍) is the Mandarin Chinese name used in mainland China and Taiwan, while cheongsam is the Cantonese romanisation used in Hong Kong, Singapore, and much of the English-speaking world.
Both the qipao dress and the cheongsam share the same defining characteristics — the elegant mandarin collar, the fitted bodice that celebrates the female form, the graceful side slit that allows movement, and the beautiful fabric that ranges from hand-embroidered silk to modern printed textiles. Our collection offers the full range of this extraordinary garment in both traditional and contemporary styles.
- Traditional silk & brocade qipao dresses in authentic historical styles
- Modern cheongsam in contemporary fabrics, prints & silhouettes
- Short, midi & full-length qipao dress / cheongsam styles
