チャイナドレス 旗袍 Cheongsam 長衫 チャイナ チーパオ
The China dress or Chinese dress, more properly called a cheongsam (Cantonese) or qipao (Mandarin), was introduced in Qing-era China (1600s) but did not evolve into its current form until the early 20th century. It is a form-fitting, one-piece dress. It buttons up on the right with a diagonal flap across the breasts, and has side slits up both legs.
In anime they are often really short or the slits really long. Also very often feature a cleavage cutout.
Frequently appears in conjunction with double bun and bun cover.
Do not use this tag if the clothing is not a dress, even if it's a shirt or vest with a qipao style. Just add chinese clothes.
For example, Hong Meiling's default outfit is not a dress.
