it’s always best to ask for advice about Chinese and Oriental dresses and clothing.
Telephone the manager at our Chinese fashion shop to ask about the ‘made to measure’ service.
This clothes size table below are for GUIDANCE ONLY as ( most women know ) sizes are not standardised even between manufacturers of the same country, never mind internationally.
Why not measure a dress that already fits and contact Mandarin-Oriental with the details ?

.. Perhaps one of the best ways of ordering clothes which will fit ..
.. is to lay a similar item flat on the floor or bed and then measure its length, height, width in CENTIMETRES or INCHES and then contact Mandarin Oriental of the details.
It is best to measure across the shoulders, chest and waist.
You can also ask for the specific size of a dress measurement which is in stock prior to ordering ... see the blue arrows below for hip measurement and the bottom of the dress width.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO LAY THE CLOTHING FLAT
BEFORE MEASURING
and to do not mix
centimetres and inches.
The dress sizes above are VERY approximate, it is always better to ask us for advice.
For example, one model on this website wears a size 14 UK, but either XXL or XXXL depending on the Oriental dress manufacturer, whose clothes sizing tends to be smaller fitting, and varying in size, as do UK retailers.
We will only be too pleased to measure your Chinese or Oriental dress prior to confirming your order and despatch.
We can even e-mail you a photograph of alternative dress choices which are not on this website due to the constant updating of our stock.
