                                    Gift of Mdm Zhuo Yu Chun
                                
This shawl which was made for a red and greyish-blue floral ankle length cheongsam belonged to Mdm Zhuo Yu Chun, director of Tai Wee Company Pte Ltd. It is made of synthetic satin silk, the same fabric used for the cheongsam. According to the donor, she was inspired by her grandmother who used the selendang back in Indonesia. Hence this cheongsam is a hybrid of Malay and Chinese influences.
