|
|
Guys, Do you like QiPao? a traditional Chinese dress. I think women will be beautiful in Qipao(of course, well-shaped women). Unfortunately, nowadays, very few women wear it. I just worry the tradiction is disappearing. As for me, I am not so brave to wear it, partly because I am a teacher, I just want my students to fucos on my lesson instead of my surprising clothes. but I really wanna wear it for a change. because it looks sooo different.
Look at this Chinese movie star GongLi, she makes QiPao tender, beautiful, hot...or you can say that QiPao makes her tender, beautiful, hot...

So that's GongLi, I knew she looked familiar!
The dress is amazing. Can I have one of those for Christmas, RedRose? In red or blue, please. |

I love them. And in China a lady can buy the silk fabric, then have one custom made to fit her figure perfectly.
It's very nice - and very flattering for a sexy Chinese figure.
When you get one, will you show us the pics? _________________ Daniel

Hey Redrose,
This traditional Chinese dress or Qipao is beautiful and elegant, it is true that you can hardly see women wearing these dresses nowdays in China, however you can see these Qipaos in some Chinese restaurants and hotels in China or even oversea, many waiters and desk clerks are wearing these Qipaos, they are indeed beautiful dresses.
This photo is Gongli, I haven't watched her movies for certain years, I only watched her movie called " Red Broomcorn", reportedly when she shot this movie she abandoned her years-long ex-boyfriend and had affair with her director called " Yimao Zhang", and her ex-boyfriend catched them in a hotel's room and beated her director badly, because of this the movie had been delayed to shoot for several days, after that Gongli cut the relationshipe with her ex-boyfriend and publicly established relationship with Yimao Zhang, afterward Zhang abandoned her and have affairs with other women. |

Dixie, I am sure you will look great in a QiPao, because you are in a great shape.(here these members don't know how hot you are, if they do, they will go nuts ) so get yourself one!

Turtle, I know what you love don't worry, if I get one, I will send you my pics. However, lately, I've put a little holiday weight, you know, QiPao requires great shape, so be patient! after I lose some weight, I will send what you want

Zhang didn't abandon GongLi. Zhang just didn't see the point of getting married, but GongLi wanted marriage. So GongLi left Zhang alone and married another guy. Actually, Zhang has been loving GongLi so much(just my opinion). |

She's married? How sad - and I was going to write her a love letter.  _________________ Daniel

She got married once with a CEO of a company, last year she got divorced , just half year ago she told a reporter that she was in a relationship with a guy, now I don't know weather or not she was married again, probably she is in a relationship . |

She's 42? Holy Cow! What a babe!
Considering the subject - I really want ltp-008 to be right about this instead of RedRose. Haha! _________________ Daniel

sure, this was a picture from earlier. She's one of my favorite actresses. she's unique, kinda conceited, and brave.
I seldom see which woman still looks so great at the age of 40 something, but she dose. |
