~*Traditional Chinese Dress*~ Thursday, Apr 24 2008

When it comes to Chinese New Year, or any related occasion, I think the best thing you can wear is the traditional Chinese dress that are available in a wide variety of colours.

Red, blue, white, pink, black etc. But the most common colour you would find in China is RED.

For girls, you can have the dress either short or long and combine it with anything that’s into fashion nowadays. Such as black tights, they would like fabulous under the shorter dresses. 

It doesn’t even have to be a dress if you are more of a prefer-jeans-with-top kind of person. They have blouses for that matter.

What I really like about them is how they make you look slimming. But the material feels nice too. I also love the different kinds of prints you can get. My favourite ones are the ones with the dragons on them or with flowers.

Even celebrities wear them as a fashion icon.

When it comes to Hollywood, you don’t really see many Chinese actors or actresses. Only few actresses actually come on the big screen like Lucy Liu, starring Charlies Angels along with Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz or Jackie Chan (one of my favourite!) in Rush Hour.

Of course for both of them they’ve debuted in many more movies than just those and were clearly successful at it. 

But let’s not forget about other big stars that have recently…meaning, within the last couple of years, appeared on the red carpet such as success, Ziyi Zhang, who acted in the famous movie “Memoirs of a Geisha.” 

Chow Yun Fat, I remember him playing the king in “Anna and the King.” I actually really enjoyed that movie!

Bai Ling is another actress you see from time to time at premiers and galas. Also starred in quite a lot of movies. 

There are so many more actors and actresses that you would be able to fill an entire blog about them but these were the main actors and actresses I could think of.
