Costumes for festivals or important occasions are more gorgeous, with men’s robes embroidered with patterns and women’s robes inlaid with jewels, showing luxury.
The Yuan Dynasty also had strict rules on dress hierarchy. The imperial dress is particularly solemn and gorgeous, and the Baigan public dress follows the system of the Song Dynasty, but the style is innovative, and the grade is distinguished by different colors and patterns. The dress of the common people was subject to various restrictions and could not exceed the hierarchy.
