Traditional Embroidered Chinese Shoes
These are the most classic type of traditional Chinese shoes for brides. Embroidered shoes are typically made from silk or other fine fabrics and are decorated with intricate embroidery. Common motifs include flowers, birds, dragons, and phoenixes, which symbolize good fortune, harmony, and long-lasting love. The embroidery is often done in bright, auspicious colors like red and gold.
現代裝飾紅鞋
紅色在中國文化中被認為是吉祥色，象徵著幸福、繁榮和好運。 本地新娘很常會選擇紅色的鞋作為婚禮造型的元素之一。 這些款式有多種風格，從簡單的平底鞋到帶有刺繡或裝飾元素的更精緻的設計。
經典婚鞋
最後，有些新娘選擇穿著經典的婚鞋。 這些通常由柔和或中性顏色的簡單款式組成。 裝飾比較少，以免掩蓋了中國裙褂或旗袍的精緻感。
現在你決定了嗎？ 你會選擇傳統的繡花鞋還是現代的裝飾紅鞋？
