Chinese Shaoxing Opera, also known as Yue Opera, is a traditional Chinese art form that originated in the 17th century.

It combines singing, dancing, and acting to tell stories from Chinese literature, particularly the works of Cao Xueqin's Dream of the Red Chamber.

The Hua Tan Dress, one of the most iconic costumes in Chinese opera, is a long, flowing dress with intricate embroidery and colorful patterns.

It was worn by female characters in the opera, such as Wang Xifeng, who was portrayed as a noble lady with a sharp tongue and a strong will.

The costume is made of silk and features a high collar, long sleeves, and a wide skirt that flows behind the dancer.

The design reflects the elegance and grace of Chinese culture and has become an important symbol of Chinese opera.
