Can I get some exact measurements from the Qipiao? Size Medium isn't too specific for me...

Yes, sorry about that. Unfortunately that is what the label says it is.
But! I will take measurements later this afternoon (possibly earlier).

Update: Measurements added!

Yeah, I see, that's more like a Small/Medium.

Btw, can you tell me how long it is? I'm super short, so.... yeah. ^^

Hm.. let's see..

I measured it from the shoulder to the end of the dress and got 34 1/2 inches.

My friend is 5'4. When she wore it, it when down to her knees. Hope this helps! ^_^

Rawrg... do you think it'd be easy to alter the length?

Hmmm..

I think you can, but I'm not 100% sure. I'm stuck at work right now, but I'll find out and take some photos of the bottom part of the dress when I get home. (I've got 3 more hours of work to go. Won't take me too long to take a better look at the dress.)

I will let you know asap.


Ok, so I looked at the dress again and yeh you can make it shorter ^_^
