Chi-pao, a close-fitting woman’s dress with high neck and slit skirt, is a representative of traditional Chinese dresses for women. It is one of the costumes that can best accentuate women’s body profile and charm. Chi-pao reflects the reserved oriental beauty and can demonstrate the unique grace and elegance of women while leaving a huge space for imagination. It has simple lines, flexible colors, graceful styles, and refined fabrics. No other costumes perform better than Chi-pao in setting off women’s figure so finely and displaying women’s grace, beauty, virtue, and charm so completely.
