Chinese actress Ma Yili loves the costumes and setting in her new detective series Miss S for HBO Asia

SINGAPORE - The luxe, beautiful cheongsams of Miss S - a new HBO Asia original series about a wealthy socialite who sets up a detective agency set in 1930s Shanghai - were so appealing to leading lady, Chinese actress Ma Yili, that she took three sets home for herself.

And while cheongsams are body-hugging outfits, the mother of two daughters, who stands at 1.64m tall, says she was lucky to be blessed with a svelte figure to do the outfits justice. She says:"I've always been quite taken with the 1930s as an era. I have yet to see a Shanghai lady of that era portrayed to the image I have in my heart so to be able to play this role was a wonderful opportunity."
