POCKETPIG DIARY
If your little girl doesn’t like a tight-fitting cheongsam, this brand’s cheongsam Twirl dress ($45) gives her the freedom to run around. Made of cotton, it’s suitable for ages one to eight (buy one size up as the cutting runs small), and comes with a matching hairclip and bloomers. The label stocks a large variety of festive clothes, and there is a Mum-anddaughter cheongsam set, as well as other non-festive twinning outfits for the whole family.
