Product Description
100% silk couture cheongsam in a red, white and blue pattern iconic of the tarp popular in HK back in the 1960’s. Sparkling crystals together with handcrafted shuāngxǐ (double happiness) flower buttons give this traditional cheongsam a modern East-meets-West cultivated retro look.
This design takes its inspiration from the classic and well-known HK designed red white and blue tarp. The classic tri-color tarp is simplistic, durable, versatile and trustworthy, reflecting HongKongers’ perseverance and “Under The Lion Rock” fighting spirit. Ken takes this classic and representative pattern which has seen the rise of Hong Kong, and transforms it into a unique paneling design. The pattern uses straight lines in red, white and blue to portray the Hong Kong spirit, which looks random and chaotic, but actually skillfully arranged and can extend borderlessly in all directions, to symbolize the endless possibilities of the classic tarp and Hong Kong.
