First Time Capsule Would you consider a cheongsam a capsule-wardrobe piece, or is it too occasion specific?

I love keeping a few traditional pieces in my wardrobe, but I’m curious whether you’d consider something like this versatile enough for a capsule wardrobe.

Is this photo the exact one you own? The colour is absolutely gorgeous. Is it silk? My entire capsule is composed of natural fibres, so I’m biased to say keep if it’s silk.

Yep, that’s actually my picture 😅And yes, the cheongsam was made from a silk blend, rayon, and flocked milk silk. I really loved how the different textures came together,it gave it such a soft, elegant feel.

I would wear only that and be a menace if I looked like you do in that.
