How strange about your petti! I have the same one, but it's a lot longer, the exact length of my dresses. Perhaps you could contact taobaobuying so they can contact classical puppets?
Well I remember reading something about 'relaxing' the organza so it's not all wrinkly, that's probably why it is so short and lumpy... I told taobaobuying about the hole in it, but they just told me they would give me a free gift with my next order. :\
I emailed taobaobuying last night about the issue, I asked them to contact CP about how to smooth out all the lumps, so maybe they will give me some advice, I'll update the review when they answer. I also tried showering and putting the petti in the bathroom, hoping the steam would help, but no big change so far.
From your review, I understand that Dear Celine, HMHM and Kidsyoyo do custom (or at least some) custom sizes??? Cos that'd be awesome. I've been dying to order from them, but it's the sizing that's been staving me off.
Yes, whenever I order things via taobao stores, I don't even select a size, I just send my SS my measures and a chart, like this one http://www.stylekk.com/skin/frontend/default/tempstylekk/images/mesurment.gif filled out in CM for almost every measurement. Every store on this list does custom except BouBou for the cutsews, but they will let you know if certain sizes will fit anyway. I always get everything on the garment custom, sleeve length, skirt length, bust, shoulder, wrist, waist. I would recommend having a professional tailor fit you and then sending in the chart filled out. :) Out of all these stores, Dear Celine and HMHM did the best jobs fitting, Kidsyoyo had a funky thing with the armholes gaping (doesn't show on my dummy, but all the garments fit slightly different on a real person, and I have very square shoulders), and 69th was a touch tight in the neck and shoulders. I hope this helps

Personally, customer service wise, they are both pretty even. However, based solely on the size of my order (and yours since you are doing GO) I would go with Taobaobuying simply for the ease of the order form. With Taobaospree you have to fill out an excel sheet which can be a little annoying for some people, but Taobaobuying has the process automated so you just fill out a little block of text on their site and then They fill out the excel sheet for your order. :) Hope this helps! Both SS have done me well in the past, I just prefer the ordering method of Taobaobuying. And the packaging seemed better.
Here is the exact chart I sent in for my order with my measurements : http://i40.tinypic.com/ra3hhl.jpg Since I don't ever pick a default size, BouBou just told me that they had a default size that would work (I assume the large? They never actually told me which size) for one of the cutsews, and the other I picked would not stretch so I had to switch it out for something else.
note: i did not add in over the bust to opposite waist, dropped waist 3 inches, hips, or hip to floor as i did not feel these were necessary in these garments, the over the bust to opposite waist is good for tops, but only if your bust is uneven in size.
I love all of your winter stuff that you got! Very cute! If it wasn't getting to be spring where I live, I would totally want to buy some of these things ♥
Yes, well actually I had hoped to get these things before Chinese New year, I just ended up ordering them late (Dec instead of Nov) but even then, I wasn't ready for how long HMHM would take. But it's ok, I still have about 2 months of chilly weather :) I am glad I got the one spring jsk from kidsyoyo at least haha!
