Exhibitions
From June 23 to September 13, 2010, more than 270 qipao of different styles and eras were displayed at the Hong Kong Museum of History entitled The Evergreen Classic – Transformation of the Qipao. With some 400 pictures and nine multi-media programmes, the exhibition gave the public an opportunity to view the full development of the qipao and to appreciate its classic beauty. Besides featuring qipao from different times, the exhibition also displayed several signature showpieces of Shiatzy Chen presented at Paris Fashion Week to give new perspectives on how a contemporary fashion designer injected fashion and modern elements into the qipao and reinterpreted the qipao tradition.
