Wulong Cha 乌龙茶 Oolong Tea 1920s Phoenix Jacquard Bell Sleeve Qipao

This item has a 24 day construction period.

A love letter to the fashions of the 1920s, this qipao is adorned with phoenixes cascading down the entirety of the dress. The teal blue is a very ancient color that has been favored throughout Chinese history. 

Made in the style of early Republic of China dresses, this style of qipao is much looser, with lower side slits and a lower hem. Large bell sleeves add a delicate touch and a great option for hot and cold weather. 

Phoenixes represent feminine power, peace, and prosperity in Chinese culture.

Wear as-is or add any number of layering pieces: a cardigan, qipao slip dress, or qipao pants. No matter how you incorporate this dress into your wardrobe, it's guaranteed to be a favorite. 

Perfect for trying out new teahouses, university lectures, and picnics with friends - the Jinghua Yao 镜花瑶 Mirrored Flower Qipao is a comfortable and stunning option for everyday wear. 

It's recommended to add 2-4cm to your measurements for a comfortable fit. 

Material: 100% viscose satin (interwoven rayon for a semi-matte look, very retro feel)
