Note
Should we make a note saying that this is base on the Chinese Traditional Clothing called QiPao?

sounds weird to me traditional chinese wearing such skirts :PKalamaras gr 16:00, 26 May 2007 (CDT)

The qipao was originally a Manchu dress with long sleeves and the skirt went down to the feet. While the Manchus ruled China it became a common dress among Han Chinese elites as well. After the fall of the last Chinese dynasty the qipao was gradually reformed into something similar to what the Elite Canthan armor looks like (the sleeves became shorter first, and gradually the skirt line rose). It might make a good note, though I don't recall seeing notes for other armor articles (of course, how many armor sets are based on real life clothing is another point).Crow 21:46, 17 June 2007 (CDT)

Female armor is definitely hot... but I dare say that the male version of this armor is perhaps the UGLIEST armor I have ever seen across all characters, based on the photo provided. But my goodness... I'm gonna have to make a female mesmer just so I can get her this armor. -Wang 05:15, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
