Hanfu is like an iceberg, you never know how many layers are underneath the surface 😂
The first layer consists of:
1) Cross-collared shirt (**Make sure the collar is crossed left-over-right)
2) PantsSecond layer consists of:
1) Bottom skirt
2) Top robeThird layer consists of:
1) Long robeFourth layer consists of:
1) Zhiju (straight-edged) robeA fifth layer with a wide-sleeved Zhiju robe can be added for added warmth (I will be posting about that tomorrow).
If you’re wearing a Zhiju robe today and historical accuracy isn’t crucial to you, feel free to pick and choose which layers to wear based on the weather. At the very least an inner cross-collared shirt is ideal as the collar DOES peak through at the top. If you’re wanting to wear Hanfu in winter, you can purchase inner robes which are lined for added warmth.
