Product Description
This 100% silk east-meets-west mini skirt cheongsam featuring pop-art style junk boat rewrites the Intangible Cultural Heritage of the cheongsam; the unique long butterfly sleeves inspired by the iconic water sleeves (水袖) in Chinese operas are of the same length as the western style A-line mini skirt itself; together with a peekaboo side slit and our brand signature lambskin Mandarin collar, this ultra-modern piece reinvents the traditional cheongsam into something daring, funky and sexy.
HK started out as a fishing community, and in the last century iconic red Chinese junk boats were frequently seen bobbing in the HK Victoria Harbour. As HK grew into a metropolis, the junk became the party boat of fun-loving youngsters. This design is inspired by the classic red Chinese junk boat; in addition to the flowing and fluid-like visual design elements, the designer also incorporates strong, distinct lines and contrasting colors, imitating the dynamic outline of a sailboat and gives the design an energetic but graceful touch, as a tribute to the glorious history of Hong Kong.
