Black is one of the most favored dress colour of all times, by women of all ages, and cultures, so much so there is an acronym LBD dedicated just to the specific fashion preference. Women of Chinese ethnicity are no exception—until the wedding day when any association with the word "black" is inauspicious.
Thankfully most mothers have lightened up and would still attend her daughter's wedding as long as she isn't black head-to-toe. And the bride says, " Look, Ma, it's a Chinese Cheongsam, surely I can have a little black flowers on it."
Another black/ red wedding cheongsam for your inspiration.
