Rare scene
1950s
Domestic maids on the street. With industrial development local maids are no longer available. These maids usually came from Nanhai, Pangyu and Shun-tak. Most of those who came from Shun-tak preferred being single and were dressed in white shirt and black pants. The long braid was an icon of these maids.
