I ordered this book for my Chinese opera unit with 3rd grade. Useful for them to get acquainted with Chinese fashion style. Sturdy construction and a wide variety of styles.

A great book for viewing ethnic wonderful Chinese Costumes. Will be adding more of these to my library. Unfortunately, this title is no longer showing as available. Great for Designing ideas. Costumes have the feel of real fabric flow. Chinese Opera Costumes Paper Dolls

I grew up in Chinatown LA. My parents dragged me to many Chinese operas. Even when I had no idea what they were singing, the beautiful costumes and makeup and spectacle were dazzling. This compendium is a wonderful introduction to the art form. I adore paper dolls in general, but Dover paper doll series also instructs. The art work and detail of the costumes are wonderful.

I digitize for the embroidery world. This selected Chinese Opera Costumes of Paper Dolls, was just glorious. It gives details of the clothing, and it's ok to play with paper dolls, no matter what your age.
Very Nice book, Students of costumnes will appreciate this book, and younger children will have loads of fun.
