They will probably start taking appointments for their March tour beginning in February. You can email them with a preferred appointment time. They will usually reply within a few days and let you know if the time is available.

And all the time wating for your garment. If you're going to be in China this year I'd wait or go to their tour and pick your fabric and get measured so when you arrive you can get a fitting.

It's not too short and there's nothing wrong with the lapels either. It's a great outfit and a beautiful suit. What fabric is it please?
