Seamlessly integrating the classic codes of Cheongsam &ndash;&nbsp;jacquard, dragon and floral lacing&nbsp;&ndash; with modern silhouettes and designs, we love how the Ong Shunmugam Cheongsam 2019 collection parade the&nbsp;beauty of the Orient with a whisper of youthfulness.

And this particular piece with purple and green jacquard structured sleeves is definitely our favourite!
