Willow Cheong Sam
Inspired by our well-loved Willow Samfu Top, the Willow Modern Cheongsam Dress offers fashionista sewists more ways to enjoy the iconic side opening and asymmetrical collar in their everyday wardrobe.
The dress presents a modern take on the traditional cheongsam, featuring a mandarin collar with an asymmetrical neckline and side opening. The mandarin collar serves as a nod to cultural heritage, symbolising elegance and tradition, while the asymmetrical design introduces a contemporary edge to the classic form.
Designed to move effortlessly between occasions, the dress balances structure and comfort. The bodice flows into a softly gathered skirt with an elasticated waist, providing ease of wear throughout the day. Adjustable waist ties allow you to fine-tune the fit, while functional side pockets add practicality to this flattering silhouette.
The Willow Cheong Sam is not limited to festive moments. It is a versatile, year-round piece that can be styled casually for daily wear or dressed up for more polished occasions.
