Designer’s Notes
Shanghai 1920 is more than just a traditional Qipao—it’s a memory woven in silk.
This blush pink silk Qipao dress, with its knee-length cut and ¾ sleeves, is a modern heirloom designed to honor your roots. Hand-embroidered magnolia flowers and native birds—symbols of beauty and resilience from old Shanghai—bring to life a scene only remembered by heart. The soft green trim and floral Pankou closure evoke quiet elegance from the past.
For those with ties to Shanghai or a love for Chinese traditional dresses, this Qipao is a wearable story. It recalls the sound of your grandmother’s voice, the scent of blooming trees in spring, and the distant warmth of your family’s homeland.
A timeless piece for weddings, portraits, or treasured occasions, this heirloom Qipao is meant to be passed on—just like the memories it holds.
