Yan Shang Kee’s owner often travels to Japan to purchase fabrics. These fabrics are then brought to a qipao-making master in Shanghai to be hand-crafted. Traditional cuts and silhouettes are given a modern twist with stretchy fabric, animated patterns, sheer lace detailing and more, subtly reinventing the classic qipao to suit contemporary tastes.
