Chinese traditional clothing meaning

Two Women Run Along A Sunset BeachMistress Antonia brings us these delightful outfits for Charley and Posey Panda – late Sui, early Tang Dynasty garb for the categories Out Of Your Comfort Zone (being from the Far East!), One Metre Material Project, chinese traditional men’s clothing and Togs Togs Undies! I can only offer the most modest documentation… Posey’s outfit is modelled on images of court women of the Tang dynasty. She’s wearing a two-piece outfit (襦裙), a typical Tang dynasty outfit consisting of a blouse (襦, ru) and a wrap-around skirt (裙). Charley’s wearing formal attire, consisting of a round-collared robe (yuanlingshan 圓領衫) over an inner robe (tie li, 貼裏). I didn’t have a lot of information about Tang underwear specifically, so I modelled them on more modern Hanfu underwear. Both pandas have a full set of underclothes. I gave Posey a pink peony headdress because large flowers on heads crop up in some Tang Dynasty paintings, such as Zhou Fang’s Beauties wearing flowers. Everything was made from fabric I already had, and almost all of it just scrap. I wanted some version of the typical scholar’s/official’s hat for Charley, but it wasn’t really something I could make myself, and buying one was financially prohibitive, but I spotted felt bowler hats with ears on Ebay for just $5- and I thought that maybe a panda would rather have room for his ears than for a topknot he doesn’t have anyway. Total expenditure for the project (excluding pandas) was about $15.
