From what I have heard from multiple Chinese women is that the reason that qipaos in Western depictions are generally (not always) insensitive is how they have been co-opted as The exotic sexy dress. Many depictions of Asian women (granted this has changed recently) were almost exclusively either the temptress assassin or as a prostitute. Both depictions portrayed them as overly sexual and explicitly foreign in Western popular culture. And for both, they would half the time be stuffed into a qipao regardless of their actual ethnicity.
And let's not pretend we've never seen some weeb wearing a qipao to be sexy. I remember them selling them in kiosks in the mall and it was always a young white woman buying them to look cool, exotic, and sexy not to just wear around for a regular day.
So some actual Chinese women are still generally skeptical of people of non-Chinese descent wearing qipaos as just a regular dress rather than as a sexy assassin costume.

So the slutty, 'Hallowe'en' version is what you're talking about? That's fair. *No-one* likes the slutty Hallowe-en version of their stuff...
