Tang Suit

Tang suit(Tangzhuang) is a type of traditional Chinese suit developed from Manchu’s "Magua" in Qing Dynasty. It is regarded as the clothing that can best represent Chinese traditional culture. Chinese people especially overseas Chinese wear this Chinese suit in Spring Festival to celebrate the grandest Chinese festival.

  • a standing collar
    Standing collar, also called mandarin collar, band collar or choker collar. It's a style of collar which is standing up on the upper garment rather than folded.
  • a row of Chinese button knots

  • embroidered words or patterns that signify good wishes
    Tangzhuang could be embroidered with words and patterns, such as "福" means good fortune, dragon for men or phoenix for women means wish to be successful, etc.
  • western tailoring method
    With the cultural exchange all over the world, Tangzhuang began to use western 3D-cutting skills, extended the length of sleeves, and became what they are now.
