How to choose a suitable cheongsam/qipao for yourself?

I’m xiaoyu, I love qipao very much, and I have friends who making qipao in China, she tell me a lot of it, so I’m very experience in choosing a good qipao, now I want to share them with you. For wedding Style: Usually people choose to wear a cheongsam at the tea ceremony. We know the tea ceremony is very full of Chinese culture, so a tracditional cheongsam is a good choice. A tradition qipao usually has the following character:  Sleeveless/ Short sleeves, right opening, ankle length, mandarin collar, side/ back zipper, 2 slits. Of course, if one of the newlywed isn’t Chinese, you can also choose an improved cheongam, mostly it’s similar with the traditional one but with some change, for example: a fishtail, a princesse collar, a-line skirt etc. The combination of Chinese custom and Western aesthetic will make you very larruping. I wish above information will be useful here, if you want to know more, I will go ahead. I also would like to communicate with people who also love qipao. Haha~~~
