品牌故事 Brand Story

2020年由Facebook最大旗袍社群「CHICPOW 旗袍同好會」之創辦人馬于文老師所創立。

CHICPOW為Chic Power的縮寫，諧音「旗袍兒」，亦為「時尚力量」之意。

致力傳承推廣女性文化性服飾，朝向時尚化、年輕化與便服化設計發展，期許現代女性能更自信地活出具有藝術文化的光彩與美麗。

我們自行開發符合現代女性生活的旗袍，也精選來自世界各地的旗袍設計師品牌，提供優質設計與服務給全世界喜愛旗袍的女士。

CHICPOW, a homophone of qipao, is also behind the name “Chic Power” which is an oriental influenced fashion label founded in 2010. The founder Yogi Ma also launched one of largest qipao groups on Facebook, “CHICPOW Taipei” in 2015. CHICPOW is committed to promoting women’s cultural clothing and creating fashionable, youthful daily- wear designs. We strive to empower modern women to live more confidently, balancing the brilliance and beauty of art and other fine aspects of culture. We design new qipao at the same time we also hand-select quality international designer qipaos, serving ladies who love qipaos all over the world.
