Cheongsam

The cheongsam is a body-hugging (modified in Shanghai) one-piece Chinese dress for women; the male version is the changshan. It is known in Chinese as the qípáo (旗袍), qípáor (旗袍儿), Wade-Giles ch'i-p'ao, and is also known in English as a mandarin gown. The stylish and often tight-fitting cheongsam or qipao (chipao) that is most often associated with today was created in the 1920s in Shanghai and was made fashionable by socialites and upperclass women.

malay kebaya

The Kebaya or more correctly kain-kebaya is the traditional blouse-dress combination worn by women in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, and some parts of Cambodia. It consists of a long-sleeve blouse sometimes made of sheer textile and worn with a batik skirt of uncut (kain panjang ) textile or sarong (fabric sewed to form a tube) which may also be other traditional textiles such as ikat, sumpat or songket.The kain-kebaya is indigenous to Indonesia and thus the National Costume of Indonesia, although more is accurately endemic to Central Java, spreading later to Sunda and Bali.

indian saree..

A sari or saree or shari is a female garment in the Indian Subcontinent. A sari is a strip of unstitched cloth, ranging from four to nine metres in length that is draped over the body in various styles. The most common style is for the sari to be wrapped around the waist, with one end then draped over the shoulder baring the midriff. The sari is usually worn over a petticoat (pavada/pavadai in the south, and shaya in eastern India), with a blouse known as a choli or ravika forming the upper garment. The choli has short sleeves and a low neck and is usually cropped, and as such is particularly well-suited for wear in the sultry South Asian summers. Cholis may be "backless" or of a halter neck style. These are usually more dressy with a lot of embellishments such as mirrors or embroidery and may be worn on special occasions. Women in the armed forces, when wearing a sari uniform, don a half-sleeve shirt tucked in at the waist. The saree was born in both South and North India and is now a symbol for all of India.
