Product Description
Horse Face Skirts/Mamianqun
The horse face skirt is a traditional Chinese skirt characterized by its distinct pleated design. It is occasionally referred to in a more generic sense as an apron. This type of skirt is a key component of Hanfu, the traditional dress of Han Chinese women, serving as a lower garment. It is celebrated as one of the most emblematic styles of ancient Chinese skirts.
Historical Style Trends
Ming Dynasty
What makes the Ming mamianqun iconic is its use of gold embroidery in intricate patterns, the main focal points of which start from around the knee-level of the skirt and go down to the hem, typically in horizontal bands. Its classic colors are jewel-toned reds, blues, and greens. The pleats were also rather large and sparse compared to Qing mamianqun.
Qing Dynasty
In the Qing dynasty (1644 to 1911), the mamianqun underwent a number of changes. Its embroidery patterns became much more lavish and colorful, especially on the outer skirt doors, and incorporated a wider variety of auspicious animal, insect, and flower symbols. Designs became more complicated, and some variants featured tighter and more numerous pleats, as well as sharp, contrasting trims and irregularly shaped front doors.
How to Style the Mamianqun
You can match your skirt with other hanfu garments, or you can also do it with ordinary clothes, especially blouses and top.
