A shirt is one of the casual clothes worn by empresses in the Qing Dynasty. It is usually worn inside a cloak or waistcoat, and can also be worn alone
Its style has a round neck, a large front with a right hem, and a straight robe without a train. Three layers of short flat sleeves, rolled up to the elbow, folded in shape, with replaceable cuffs inside the cuffs. There are three layers in total: moon white pigment spinning, lined with beige coin pattern dark flower satin, decorated with fu shou pattern ribbon edges and light blue curved water pattern woven gold edges. The outermost layer is the fabric. This is one of the decorative features of the casual clothes of the late Qing empresses
The whole body is made of bright yellow dark patterned silk, embroidered with three blue and one hundred dish patterns, surrounded by snow blue cloud crane patterns and moon white cloud dragon patterns with tapestry edges, bordered by sapphire blue curved water textured gold lace, and lined with blue plain spun yarn. Five coin type buckles with bronze gilded lion dance and embroidered ball pattern
The decorative effect of casual clothes for empresses in the Qing Dynasty is in harmony with the motifs of various patterns. This decorative technique not only enhances the expressive effect of the main pattern, but also gives the magnificent and complex patterns a sense of balance in layout. This style of tailoring with wide sleeves has long deviated from the dress philosophy of the early Qing Dynasty, and has shifted to the pursuit of comfortable wearing experience and strong decorative effects
