In Shanghai, painter Jiang Xiuyi dons a qipao once again. In the elegant Chinese dress, she steps into the world of her artwork, which draws inspiration from the qipao-clad beauties of 1930s Shanghai advertisements. More than mere nostalgia, through Jiang Xiuyi’s work, the qipao no longer belongs to the past. In her realm, it serves as a medium to reexamine women, cities, and the contemporary era.
