Ladies Mini Peony Cheongsam - Yellow Floral Lanterns
The Ladies Mini Peony Cheongsam in Yellow Floral Lanterns is a sleeveless, knee-length cotton cheongsam (qipao) for Chinese New Year visiting, reunion dinners and family gatherings. It has a straight-cut fitted silhouette, a back zip for easy dressing, a subtle back slit so you can walk and sit comfortably, and pink jade-like buttons down the front. Fully lined in cotton and made from 100% woven cotton, it stays breathable through a warm Singapore CNY.
Our hand-drawn Yellow Floral Lanterns print, from our Autumn (秋) series, pairs lanterns with flowers. It is inspired by the lanterns of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a symbol of reunion and celebration. Twin with your little one in the matching girls' Peony Cheongsam in the same print.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cheongsam true to size?
It is a fitted style. The easiest way to check is to lay a similar fitted dress you already own flat, measure across the chest, waist and hip, and compare it with the chart. If you are between sizes, size up.
Is a cotton cheongsam comfortable for Chinese New Year in Singapore?
Yes. Woven cotton breathes better than the satin or polyester used in many cheongsams, and the lining is cotton too, so it stays comfortable through a full day of CNY visiting.
Is there a matching outfit for my daughter?
Yes. The Yellow Floral Lanterns print also comes in a girls' Peony Cheongsam (4Y to 14Y).

Designed for Families in Singapore
Every elly print is hand-drawn in house by our design team in Singapore. Our Chinese New Year collection was drawn as a four-seasons series of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and most prints come in baby, kids', ladies' and men's styles, so the whole family can match for reunion dinner and house visits.
We make our pieces for Singapore weather. Most are 100% cotton or our soft jersey with 5% elastane, so they stay comfortable through a long, warm day of visiting. For Disney fans, our Disney | elly designs include Mickey and Disney Princess prints.
