This study delves into the optimization of cheongsam patterns for middle-aged and elderly women by integrating ergonomics and diverse aesthetic perspectives. The aim is to enhance the adaptability of cheongsam to the body types of middle-aged and elderly women and to meet their aesthetic requirements. Research has uncovered significant differences between the body types of middle-aged and elderly women and those of younger women, necessitating targeted adjustments to cheongsam patterns, such as widening the back and reducing the depth of the rear sleeve cap. Additionally, incorporating diverse aesthetic elements into cheongsam design, like traditional embroidery and modern minimalist patterns, can cater to the varied aesthetic preferences of middle-aged and elderly women. This study offers optimization plans and theoretical support for cheongsam design tailored to middle-aged and elderly women, which is beneficial in elevating the wearing experience and promoting the inheritance and development of traditional cheongsam culture.
