Well, okay REALLY ancient clothing is known as Hanfu (which literally means Han Dynasty clothing). After the Han Dynasty there was the Qing Dynasty and that's when Qipao and Changshan became popular.

I advise you to use wikipedia and look up these terms to figure out which style of clothing you are looking for. My guess is that you're thinking about the Qipao and Changshan since that's the style most people associate with 'traditional' clothing.

wikipedia isn't always trustworthy so look on other sights aswell

Traditional Chinese dress is generically called Hanfu. Hanfu dress, Manchu-style, was called Qipao (in Mandarin) or Cheongsam (in Cantonese) for women and Tangzhuang (Mandarin) or Tongzon (Cantonese) for men.
