The System and Characteristics of Ming Dynasty Men's Hanfu
Backed by authoritative texts (
The Grand Ceremony of the Ming Dynasty,
Sancai Tuhui) and archaeological finds (e.g., Ming nobles’ tombs), Ming men's Hanfu (1368–1644) revived Han traditions while balancing ritual solemnity and daily practicality.
-
Zhishen (直身): Daily/semi-formal wear with a straight cut, side slits, and high cross/round collar (length: below knees to ankles). Elites used silk (ling, luo); commoners relied on cotton/linen (per Ming textile archives).
-
Tieli (贴里) Feiyufu: Practical attire for mobility (martial duties/labor) with a cross collar, narrow sleeves, and underarm gussets. Made of durable silk/cotton (Military Training Manual of the Ming Dynasty records its use in military wear).
-
Daopao (道袍): Ceremonial wear for literati with wide sleeves, a cross collar, and flowing silhouette. Features a pijia (yoke) and subtle embroidery; crafted from fine silk/linen (seen in Nanjing Yunjin Brocade Museum collections).
-
Han Culture Revival: Restored core Hanfu elements (cross collars, hierarchical dress codes) after the Yuan Dynasty (Ming Shi Lu documents Emperor Taizu’s edicts on reviving Han attire).
-
Formality & Practicality: Styles like Zhishen (daily) and Daopao (ceremonial) balanced different use cases.
-
Advanced Textiles: Sophisticated silk weaving (Yunjin) and widespread cotton (popularized via Huang Daopo’s innovations) enabled diverse, comfortable fabrics.
This men's cross-collar daopao (a type of Ming Dynasty hanfu) is exquisitely made of bark-pleated fabric. It feels light yet has a wonderful drape, as if it could sway gently with the breeze. There are golden patterns of gentle breezes embroidered on the shoulders, seeming to carry the coolness among pine trees. The prints on the skirt are spread with an ombre technique, with layers of details like mountains and pine branches, which are exquisitely proper. Its design inspiration combines pines, bright moons, and gentle breezes, interpreting the elegant artistic conception of "The bright moon shines among the pines, and a cool breeze comes slowly" to the fullest. The charm of Chinese aesthetics is accurately grasped!
- Inner garment: Plain cross-collar neiyi (for layering, as in Sancai Tuhui illustrations).
- Waist belt: Wide silk belt with a jade/copper buckle (holds daidai pouches, depicted in Ming tomb murals).
- Footwear: Mianxie (thick-soled cloth shoes, daily); official leather boots (formal, per Ming Dynasty Official Attire Regulations).
- Headwear: Zhuyi (scholarly), Sixi Mao (daily), Mianguan (ceremonial).
- Accessories: Jade pendant or xiangnang (fragrant pouch).
This ensemble embodies Ming-era aesthetics with historical accuracy.
This set of clothes includes a daopao (Taoist - style robe), a middle - layer garment, middle - layer trousers, and a gongtao (a long silk sash).
