Eileen Chang Fashion ca.1944

Eileen Chang, ca. 1944. In 1944, my friend Zhang had sent someone to take my picture and I wore this Chinese-style dress. After a few shots, I was asked to take different kinds of pictures and thus, I wore a robe on the outside of the dress. -- "Dui Zhao Ji", -- p 067; 张爱玲的照片, ca. 1944."一九四四年业余摄影家童世璋与他有同好的友人张君，名字一时记不起了，托人介绍来给我拍照，我就穿那件唯一的清装行头，大袄下穿着薄呢旗袍。拍了几张，要换个样子。单色呢旗袍不上照，就在旗袍外面加件浴衣，看得出颈项上有一圈旗袍领的阴影。（为求线条简洁，我把低矮的旗袍领改为连续的圈领）"-- 对照记，p. 067
