We all know Chinese New Year means family gatherings, ang paos, great food and also…FASHION SHOW!
Cheongsam is the traditional costume in the Chinese culture that was originated back in Shanghai in the 1920s, and have since been one of the staple clothing for Chinese New Year and weddings for decades. To those who haven’t own a piece of Cheongsam yet, these Malaysian influencers will show you exactly why every female should have at least ONE of these body-hugging qipao in your wardrobe. Mind you, those who made it this list are TOP Malaysian influencers and they’re absolutely rockin’ em oriental look! Besides, it’s never too late to hop into the Cheongsam bandwagon!
1. Joey Chua
Local artist & singer, Joey Chua were seen in a checkered red Cheongsam. As compared to her cool-looking street style, which you’d prefer?
2. Moon Tan Yue Er
Miss Astro Chinese International Champion 2017, Moon Tan wore not one, but TWO Cheongsam over CNY. Red or blue, we think she nailed it perfectly!
3. Crystal Swung
Malaysian beauty & lifestyle influencer, Crystal Swung looks absolutely stunning in Cheongsam, don’t ya think? Whether it’s a sleek navy blue or white Cheongsam with intricate red embroidery, both pieces are timeless and can be worn for more than one occasion!
4. Apple Tan
Malaysia lifestyle influencer, Apple Tan went ahead with a gold Cheongsam & a floral white Cheongsam which had a shoulder cut-off. The latter design is not the most conventional designs around but it looks really good on Apple!
5. Qiu Wen
Here’s a total different Cheongsam that makes you feel like you have travel back in time. Malaysia influencer Qiu Wen were seen rocking her 2 piece Cheongsam in red and pink hue which instantly elevate the whole CNY atmosphere.
6. Serene Khoo
Born and breed in Johor, nutritionist and lifestyle influencer Serene Khoo dressed in both blue and white Cheongsam with a high slit this CNY. We think the white one is a must-have if you are into a more feminine/sexy style!
7. Nana Bebu
We have seen Cheongsam with high neck cover ups, but Malaysia online personality Nana rocked her sleeveless Cheongsam with a slight peek-a-boo effect on the chest area in pastel pink and white. Which do you prefer?
8. Cherrie Tan
Mother and lifestyle personality, Cherrie Tan was seen accentuating the oriental side in her. She elevates her look by using her handbags as statement pieces. Smart move indeed!
9. Chan Won
Veteran blogger in the Malaysia blogging scene, Chanwon was seen donning her pastel Cheongsam with a twist- her hairstyle! We absolutely love how she could pull off a hair-bun with such an oriental look.
10. Careen Tan
Last but not least, here’s one of our favourite mommy blogger and boss of TWA, Careen Tan who was seen flaunting her curves and growing baby bump in her Cheongsam. Whether it’s long or short, if you think preggers simply can’t rock cheongsams, Careen is here to make you revisit that thought of yours!
