Self-taught tailor grasps art of sewing traditional Chinese attire


Tee now has four assistants to help her handle the increasing orders for ‘hanfu’.

AN INTEREST in all things related to ancient Chinese history led a self-taught tailor to start a full-time business making traditional hanfu four years ago.

Tee Sing Yee, 27, has been interested in Chinese history and culture since the age of 19, when she picked up the Chinese tea culture, wushu and playing the guzheng (Chinese stringed musical instrument).
