到了上世纪30年代初，旗袍已经极为流行了。旗袍正以浓郁的民族风格，体现了中华民族传统的服饰美。棉制旗袍很受欢迎，尤其是那些具有中国传统图案和文字的式样更受欢迎。至二十年代末，因受欧美服装的影响，旗袍的样式也有了明显的改变。旗袍的袖口便逐渐收小，而且绣边也不像之前那么宽了。如今中山装和旗袍已经成为我国男女服装的代表。The Qing Dynasty unified China, and unified the nationwide costume as well. By the early 19306, Chi-pao had been very popular. Cheongsam features strong national flavor and embodies beauty of Chinese traditional costume. The cotton cheongsams are selling well, especially the ones with the traditional Chinese patterns and characters.At the end of20s, with the influenced of occident, the style of cheongsam changed obviously. The cuff was reduced gradually, and embroidered border was not as broad as the previous one. Nowadays, Zhongshan Suit and Qipao have become the representatives of Chinese men and women clothing.
