本场讲座将由作家兼策展人 Cheryl Sim 主持，带领观众深入探讨旗袍长久以来的象徵意义；随后将由趋时裁缝负责人兼高级裁缝师 Mia Wu 参与问答环节。

旗袍（粤语常称「长衫」）是国际公认的华人文化认同与女性特质之象徵。该服饰起源于汉族与满族服装风格的融合，其后受到西方时尚的交融影响，在不同世代与海外移民族群中承载着多层次的文化意涵。对于在加拿大出生的华裔女性而言，身着旗袍往往能激发出交织于渴望、恐惧、惊奇与文化思辩之间的複杂情感。

策展人兼学者沉洁博士将结合其着作Wearing the Cheongsam: Dress and Culture in a Chinese Diaspora，审视旗袍在海外的历史轨迹与復兴现象，并剖析其作为传统价值、文化传承与群体归属感之象徵，在华裔加拿大女性中所引发的多元探讨。专题分享结束后，Cheryl Sim 将与趋时裁缝的 Mia Wu 展开对谈，共同探讨当代旗袍的发展趋势、服装製程及文化挪用等议题。

本馆诚挚欢迎并鼓励与会者身着旗袍莅临参与。

本场活动将主要以英语进行。

 

本节目为《梦想工坊：1980至2000年代中文流行曲》特展之系列公众活动。

Mia Wu
Owner and Senior Tailor, Modernize Tailors

Born and raised in Taiwan, Mia Wu first learned how to sew from her mother on a Singer foot-pedal sewing machine. She moved to Vancouver in 2013 and completed the fashion design program at Blanche Macdonald Centre. In need of buttonholes, Wu met Bill Wong, and the apprenticeship started from there. Under Bill’s wing, as well as Park Wong’s, she quickly honed her skills. Sadly, Bill passed away in 2017 and with encouragement from Park Wong and Beverli Barnes, she took over the Modernize Tailors legacy, which continues to operate to this day.
