NO.5 Shanghai Tang
Having a qipao or Chinese tunic suit tailor-made in Hong Kong is a treat, but that process usually takes at least a week. For tourists in a hurry, Shanghai Tang stocks high-quality and off-the-rack traditional Chinese formal wear for both men and women. Probably the most famous Chinese couture house, Shanghai Tang originated in Hong Kong. Instead of strictly traditional designs, all of Shanghai Tang's garments are modernized, for example, a few qipaos come with belts and suits are made in exotic materials like moleskin. But all the classic details are there: stand-up collars, streamline cuts and intricate buttons. The brand also produces accessories like purses and scarves as well as homeware items. There are six Shanghai Tang outlets in downtown Hong Kong, with one in 18 Salisbury Road and one in 1881 Heritage on Canton Road. (852 2525 7333)

NO.4 Lane Crawford
The story of Lane Crawford begins in 1850, when the store began to offer a wide selection of quality items. This upscale department store continues to have it all. From men's, women's, and children's wear to home furnishings and jewelry, Lane Crawford is one of the city's most popular Western-style department stores. The quality here is always excellent, and the staff are well informed and most helpful and courteous. While the prices are at the upper end of Hong Kong's retail scene, this is only to be expected. Lane Crawford is a great place to stock up on the very best for Christmas. (852-2118-3668)
