I'll take you down to China Town with this slinky, shiny, satiny black cheongsam. This is the real deal, total Suzie Wong fabulousness! This is heavy weight silky polyester with a liquid drape and jacquard weaving to depict a subtle plum blossom design depending on the angle of the light. The cheongsam is a streamlined, body-skimming cut with high slits at either side to facilitate easy movement and comfort without adding bulk. The slits go to approx mid-thigh, so they're sexy but tasteful. High mandarin collar. The closures on this gown are a sight to behold: hand pleating and knotting form elaborate frog closures with snaps underneath to keep it all secure. The tag says XXL, but pay no mind to that - it's closer to a size Medium. Garment measurements: bust 38" / waist 36" / hips 44" / length 53" / side slits 23" / sleeves 5.5"
