Hollow-Out Cheongsam Lingerie Dress, Three Colors

Hollow-out work on a cheongsam is the tradition edited from the inside: the silhouette keeps its manners — mandarin collar, fitted waist, the diagonal line — while the fabric beneath develops a candor the original never had. This dress runs that edit in polyester, with cut-out sections doing what a century of cheongsam design would have called unthinkable.

The hollow-out pattern is distributed rather than concentrated, so the dress reads as lace-adjacent from a distance and as openwork at conversation range. The fit is the standard one-size band in pounds — 90–155 lbs — with the polyester stretch absorbing the range the cut allows.

Black, white and red are the three offerings, and each changes the cut-outs’ visibility: most dramatic on red, most discreet on black, most legible on white. All three keep the same silhouette, which is the tradition’s contribution; the holes are the present’s.
