Size Chart

Please compare your measurements with the chart below before ordering. The bust measurement refers to the garment’s suitable bust range, while the dress length is measured in centimeters.

Measurement reminder: 1 inch equals approximately 2.54 cm. Because the waist includes elastic smocking and the design has a relaxed fit, personal body proportions and preferred styling ease should also be considered when selecting a size.

Its relaxed construction makes it approachable for Hanfu beginners, while the embroidery and layered details give it enough personality for special occasions.

Care Instructions

• Hand wash gently in cold water or use a delicate laundry cycle.
• Wash with similar colors and avoid bleach or harsh detergents.
• Do not wring or twist the embroidered and sheer components.
• Lay flat or hang carefully to air dry away from direct sunlight.
