A gallery of girls illustrated wearing the most charming of Chinese female attire, variously called the cheongsam, 旗袍 / qipao, or China dress (Chinese dress). In fact, in Japan it is almost exclusively referred to as the “China dress”, so that will serve well enough as a title.
You can view these images, and more, on the Channel.

Needs moar Ikki Tousen.

Very nice Gallery, I was expecting some Hong Meiling, though.
CHINA DRESS!!!!!!!! THANK GOD FOR WHOEVER CREATED THEM
errrr.....chinese?
To set the record straight, the qipao is actually Manchurian in origin, with a short history of 300 years. It evolved into the tight fitting shape during the 1920s in Shanghai, but now has a slutty image with anime depictions.
The genuine 'china' dress is called the Hanfu, which is more elegant and classical.
The last one isn't Cheoungsam though, neither does it belongs to the Chinese
Cheongsam/Qipao/Shanghai dress/China dress is China's biggest contribution to mankind since gunpowder and astronomy and various form of mathematics and compass and cheap workforce and the great wall ( build by cheapworkforce ) and everything else they exported to the rest of the world.HaHAHA.
cheongsam is definitely the best and most sexiest dress in the world...
and its perfectly okay to wear it without have to extensively expose your panty or boobs to make it look sexy (unlike miniskirt, tanktop, etc)
its alluring, and every body curve can be seen clearly
(different that Yukata/Kimono..which i feel, it require certain extend of body pose to make those skin visible under such garments, anything else...your double D boobs will turn into B-C range, which clearly reduce its charms)
downside: slight body fat will turn your custom-made cheongsam into something unwearable, Kimono and Yukata doesnt have those kind of problem though XD
i agree with you there Jade... wit the cheongsam it really depends on what the character is wearing it or for whomever is wearing it on slight mistake can turn the dress from a great and sexy dress to something revolting and especially on some ages it can be alluring on some
Actually, the last pic is "ao dai" of the Vietnamese. She wears it without the pants, lmao.
google the name and you will see.
i agree with you, it's "ao dai" without pant :)
Thanks - just wonderful!! Is there a nicer dress in the world?
The kimono?
The yukata makes a fair enough run at equalling the China dress.
But I don't think the question of which is better really needs determining. Both can obviously be enjoyed in tandem, which is clearly the best way to go about it.
I think the allure for China dresses is first, how well they accentuate even slight curves (no doubt advantageous for the native wearers of the fashion), and at least in anime-manga media, how it emphasizes the leg and thighs, without necessarily going to panty-shot immodesty (though that happens a lot).
With kimonos and yukatas in particular, I think the allure is more how it's simultaneously modest and immodest. *Most* of them are fairly modest, in so far that they don't accentuate or emphasis curvature (unless the person is so "curvy" that it can no longer be helped), while at the same time they are obviously very easy to take apart, lacking very much that's solid keeping it together.
There is however, a similar emphasis on the legs, but usually not as much one as the china dress.
*rant*
There are certainly many finer garments in the world, but the kimono is not one of them.
That last one is a perfect copy. ^_^ Love me the Chinese dresses!
What's this? No Shampoo!?
Also, isn't number 36 Chun-Li?
