Made in the style of the 1910s, where Chinese fashion takes a most peculiar turn. Skinny pants paired with extremely high collared tops! While the skinny pants remind us of 2010 in the most loving way, I'll be honest with you - the more I look at this odd silhouette, the more it grows on me.
Conular high collar is enhanced by delicate lace, mirrored on the cuffs as well. Traditional Chinese frog buttons adorn the raised collar, following the traditional asymmetrical paneling of East Asian garments. If anything, you're guaranteed to get some solid wind protection and you definitely won't need a scarf with this top!
Modestly striking, this elegant top can be paired with the typical 1910s skinny pant or your skirt of choice! The jacquard print contains hyacinths and vines, symbols of positivity, serenity, and auspiciousness. Made of a breathable tencel and linen blend, making this a lightweight base for any layering, any season.
Perfect for the AC blasting office, drafty university halls, and chilly walks! Appreciate an underrated (and underrepresented) era of Chinese fashion with the Yudie Xu 玉蝶序 Jade Butterflies Raised Collar Qipao Top, a style that we're sure to grow on you too ~
