It is all about details and his&nbsp;signature craftsmanship of embroidery for this year&#39;s CNY collection by Khoon Hooi.

Featuring vibrant hues, the collection features classic&nbsp;elements such as jade, agate, pearl and handcrafted flower buttons, that gives the pieces a gentle, elegant finish.

And modelled by actress Jojo Goh herself, the designs are simply irresistible.

Khoon Hooi QiPao 2019 collection

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!
