I know that red is the traditional color for the Chinese wedding dress but would it be okay to wear a different color?
A. Yes! These days, Chinese and Chinese-American brides are going beyond the traditional color attire in order to better suit their personalities. We’ve seen pale pink, aqua blue, gold, and silver, just to name a few. For added flair, get a dress with a slightly different top. Rather than short sleeves, you could have your qipao custom-made and sewn into a sleeveless gown with a halter top.
