Ok so for all you fashionistas out there, we’ve got some real treats in clothing and fashion. The gǒuzǎiduì caught Empress Wu wearing a silk lǐpào before heading off to the market. So, for all you ladies out there, dǒupengs are so out, nowadays, begin sporting a lovely silk lǐpào with a pair of embroidered shoes, only for you ladies with BOUND feet, and put your hair up, preferably with a golden clip with jade on the outside. Your lǐpào should be made of softly woven silk, with gold trimmings, all of course, in the color red for those of you with sons.
Of course we most certainly remembered you fashion-loving men out there. Emperor Gaozong has also been spotted sporting a long robe,( made of the finest silk, gold, diamonds, and jade) embroidered slippers,(patterns of dragons most preferably) and extra long sleeves with heavy rocks to weigh them down, making them look fancy and regal. Don’t miss out on your chance to be with the “in” crowd. As for you farmers, stay with your comfortable look of short wool pants, hay shirt and straw hat. Although for you more capable farmers, there is a brand new type of material you may like to try, it’s called cotton. It’s comfy, breathable, and warm for those of you working up in the north.
That’s all for this week folks. Stay tuned for next time, and remember, stay classy.
Good start, but you need to define what these different clothes are (what they look like, what they're made of, etc).
