Precautions for buying qipao
Choose the right fabric
qipao fabric directly affects the comfort and overall temperament of wearing. Silk is light and breathable, suitable for formal occasions; brocade is gorgeous and thick, suitable for autumn and winter; cotton and linen blends are breathable and suitable for daily wear. Please choose reasonably according to the purpose and season when purchasing.
Accurately measure the size
qipao pays attention to fit, and the bust, waist, hips and length of the clothes need to be accurately measured. It is recommended to maintain a natural standing posture when trying on to ensure comfort and freedom of movement.
Matching style and body shape
Different body shapes are suitable for different styles. For example, a pear-shaped figure is suitable for an A-line skirt, and an hourglass figure is suitable for a slim fishtail style. Choosing a design that suits you can better show your elegant curves.
Pay attention to details and craftsmanship
Details determine quality. Check whether the stitching of the qipao is fine and even, whether the buttons are firm, and whether the collar and cuffs are exquisitely made. These are important criteria for judging quality.
Qipao maintenance tips
Avoid frequent washing
High-end qipaos, especially silk qipaos, should not be washed frequently. Dry cleaning or partial cleaning is recommended to maintain the gloss and texture of the fabric.
Proper storage
qipaos should be hung on loose hangers to avoid folding and causing obvious wrinkles. When storing, keep away from direct sunlight and humid environments to prevent the fabric from fading or mold.
Pay attention to insect and moth prevention
Mothballs or insect-proof bags can be placed in the wardrobe, but they must be avoided from direct contact with the qipao to avoid residual odor.
Timely repair
If the thread ends are found to be loose or slightly damaged, they should be repaired in time to avoid further damage.
