In 20' of last century, affected by western clothes, it had a little change. The cuffs became narrow, the length became short. These changes made woman's beauty emerge. Nowadays, Qipao appears frecuently on some world-class modern shows. Chinese women take it as their priority when attending some important social gatherings. Many Chinese brides also take it as their formal attairs on the wedding. Some influential personages even hold the view that we should make it be Chinese ethnic clothing. Does this sound natural?
