FAQ | Time for Cheongsam

I want a Cheongsam. How much time do I need ?

Our Ready-to-Wear designs are seasonal and non-repeating, do shop early to prevent disappointment. As cheongsam is best snugly fitted, majority of the ladies will require the ready-to-wear cheongsams to be altered to fit. Should your event be more than 2 months away, we advise you first bring home your new purchase and visit us 1-2 weeks but no more than 1 month in advance for alteration.

Made-to-Measure designs vary largely, time required would depend on the complexity of design, construction, and fit. Expect 2-3 fittings for a simple cheongsam, and up to 6 months for the very elaborate designs.

Fittings are usually scheduled at least 7 days apart, with first fitting following the consultation closely, and the last fitting less than 1 month before the day of use.

In short, a simple made-to-measure cheongsam takes 1-2 months; elaborate cheongsams can take as much time as your schedule allows.
