{"product_id":"golden-medallion-brocade-qipao","title":"Golden Medallion Brocade Qipao","description":"\u003cp\u003eJin Se — The Brocade Zither\u003cbr\u003eA dress woven, not printed. Fortune repeated across every inch.\u003cbr\u003eSome dresses are decorated. This one is made of the decoration itself — the pattern isn't added on top of the fabric, it is the fabric. Woven into the red ground with a fine gold weft, medallions repeat in a quiet geometric rhythm from collar to hem, catching light as you move. Up close you can see the individual threads sit at different heights: that surface relief cannot be printed, and it's the first thing people notice.\u003cbr\u003e✦ Design details\u003cbr\u003e- All-over woven brocade — medallion motifs on a red ground, with gold and multicolour threads woven in, not printed. Colour and pattern come from the loom, so they won't fade or crack the way a print can.\u003cbr\u003e- Classic stand collar, short sleeves, slim midi cut — the most traditional cheongsam silhouette, tailored close through the waist and hip.\u003cbr\u003e- Twin pom-pom blossom buttons at the collar — soft fabric blossoms hand-shaped around a knot, a detail borrowed from vintage Shanghai dressmaking.\u003cbr\u003e- Pearl-buttoned placket with a deep wine-red piping running from sleeve to hem — a subtle tonal edge that gives the red depth instead of flatness.\u003cbr\u003e- Fully made to measure — order in your own measurements or a standard size.\u003cbr\u003e✦ Where it belongs\u003cbr\u003eA traditional Chinese wedding, the tea ceremony, the homecoming banquet, a family celebration, Lunar New Year — anywhere the occasion itself is the point. Red is the colour of good fortune in Chinese culture, and a woven brocade red reads as heirloom rather than costume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"QGirl Atelier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67910837371176,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/8182\/6088\/files\/compressed_DSC05557.jpg?v=1792137467","url":"https:\/\/qgirlatelier.com\/products\/golden-medallion-brocade-qipao","provider":"QGirl Atelier","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
