I have to admit that floral printed qipaos are my favourite. And this one is particularly wistful, with its large magenta roses and shades of green leaves all set against a taupe background - it reminds me a lot of Maggie Cheung from In the Mood for Love.
Made from the same easy fabric as the two Classic Cap Sleeve qipaos, this dress also has great drape on the body and is extremely easy to wear. It has the same 5cm (2 inches) collar, and is buttoned up all along the side with only pankous. For more modesty on the sleeves, this floral qipao has been cut with short 3/10 grown-on sleeves*, ending just a couple of inches above the elbow.
*Please note that as there is no shoulder seam for grown-on sleeves, they are by nature loose around the under-arm area to allow for movement. We suggest choosing a different style of qipao if this may be an issue for you.
- Material: Cotton/viscose blend / No lining
- Collar height: 5cm (approx. 2 inches)
- Sleeves: Grown-on 3/10 sleeves
- Length: 120cm (approx. 47 1/2 inches)
- Fastening: Pankous from collar down right hand side
- Front: Single sided large round front
- This material and cut is true to size
- I am 158cm (5'2'') tall and wearing a S in the photos
- In order to accomodate daily wear, our qipaos have been designed with a relaxed fit at the waist. If you prefer for it to be more fitted, simply take in the two back darts (two vertical stitched lines at the back waist area). It is very quick and easy to do
- CUSTOM SIZE: we are trialling custom sizing on some of our qipaos, if you are interested in this option, please contact us with online chat or email first. Note this option customizes the bust, waist and hip measurements of the qipao only, and does not create a bespoke dress which would be at a far greater cost. The waiting time for this option is 10-14 days, customised dresses are non-exchangeable and refundable.
