This traditional cheongsam with a Western touch at the hem was made by the Chinese Arts & Crafts (HK) Co., Ltd. The company initially specialised in jade ware and Chinese crafts. Since the 1960s, it has produced cheongsams for sale and has sponsored the Miss Hong Kong Pageant several times. The design concept of the company is to instil Chinese culture into modern ways of living.
