Qipao (ζθ’) is a type of traditional Chinese dress characterized by its high neck, form-fitting silhouette, and side slits. It is commonly worn by women for formal occasions or special events.
Qipao is a type of clothing Chinese women wear. The Qipao / Cheongsam dress, known in the west as "The Chinese dress", refers to a style of dress which became popular in 1920's Shanghai. Shanghai was then - as it is now - a dynamic place where East and West meet in style. The Qipao is based on traditional Manchurian dresses; tailored to be more formfitting and revealing with its slender and curved high cut, the Qipao distinguishes itself from other Chinese dresses that came before it, opening the door to modern Chinese fashion. found this paragraph from kaiizhang.co.uk

My guess is that you're thinking about the Qipao and Changshan since that's the style most people associate with 'traditional' clothing.wikipedia isn't always trustworthy so look on other sights aswell
