【汉译英参考答案】
【参考译文】Qipao is an elegant Chinese clothing that originates from China’s Manchu Nationality. In Qing Dynasty, it was a loose robe worn by royal women. In the 1920s, under the influence of western clothing, some changes took place in Qipao, for example, the cuffs went narrower, and the dress got shorter. These changes in Qipao have enabled the full display of female beauty. Nowadays, Qipao often appears on world-class fashion shows. When Chinese women attend important social gatherings, Qipao is often their first choice. Many Chinese brides also select it as their wedding dress. Some influential people even suggest that Qipao should be the national dress of Chinese women.
