SUMMARY:Wearing the Cheongsam
DESCRIPTION:The cheongsam (Cantonese for “long dress”)\, or qipao (Mandarin for “banner robe”) is an internationally recognized symbol of Chinese cultural identity and femininity. Originating as a combination of Han and Manchu clothing styles and later influenced by Western fashion\, the garment carries layered meanings across generations and diasporas. For Canadian-born women of Chinese descent\, wearing the cheongsam can evoke tensions between desire\, fear\, wonder\, and contestation. \nDrawing from her book Wearing the Cheongsam: Dress and Culture in a Chinese Diaspora\, curator and author-scholar Cheryl Sim examines the cheongsam’s history and revival overseas\, as well as its contested meaning for Chinese Canadian women as a symbol of heritage\, traditional values\, and cultural belonging. \nFollowing the presentation\, join Cheryl Sim and Mia Wu\, owner and senior tailor at Modernize Tailors\, for a discussion on contemporary cheongsam trends\, garment production\, and cultural appropriation. \nAttendees are encouraged to wear a cheongsam to the program.
