qipao 旗袍
【词源】
[ < Chinese qípáo (Wade-Giles transcription ch'i p'ao), lit. ‘banner dress’
The dress was so called with reference to the Manchu people who ruled China during the Qing dynasty: they were organized into groups designated by different coloured banners, and consequently the term qírén‘bannermen’became a way to
refer to Manchus. The one-piece garment was characteristic of Manchu dress, as distinct from the two-piece styles used by Han Chinese women. 这种妇女服饰得名自清朝统治中国的满族。满族人民依不同颜色的旗帜而分类编制，因此“旗人”这个说法便用来指称满族。这种连身的衣服是满族妇女的特色服饰，有别于汉族妇女所穿的两截式风格。
