Qipao wha?

 Most people that I know don't know what a qipao is, well that traditional Chinese dress that most people see? YUP, that's it. Made popular back in the 20s now it's become very luxe. Some costing into the thousands and taking up to 3 weeks to make by hand - who knew? I'm so used to the cheap ones in Chinatown for $20. The more you know!

"Tailor-made qipao can cost as much as 2,200 euros and take three weeks to make. The traditional dress was made popular through Shanghai advertisments during the 1920s."
