I had a really difficult time finding a cheongsam for multiple reasons.... 1. I have a tiny upper body and wide hips and any off the rack choices either I could not pull down over my hips or were like a giant sack on the top 2. I have red hair (Caucasian marrying into a Chinese family) and look like a tomato in red, and there is a very small selection of cheongsam not in red. I was so happy to find East Meets Dress, I was able to get a custom colour dress (green) and made to measure, so my dress looks amazing! I don't look like a tomato and can pull my dress down over my hips with ease. Very excited to wear it for our tea ceremony :)

Superb customer service. The dress is beautiful, however it was too tight for me to be able to dance in it. Jenn offered an exchange for a custom-made dress and also allowed me to choose a fabric that would work out for me. Throughout the purchase process, Jenn was quick to assist me with any questions and would proactively communicate with me to make sure that the order would meet my needs.

I'm so happy I found this dress! I knew I wanted the traditional qipao look but a lot of the designs I saw in stores were too common. I really like the lace of this dress—the gold in this dress is just the right amount and I loved the cute buttons!
