Description

This beautiful skirt demonstrates how an innovative design can overcome the restrictions of a standard format. The skirt’s green fabric is teamed with other materials and ribbons in yellow, purple, pink, and blue. Together they form a geometric pattern surrounded by a row of the ruyi (wish-fulfillment) motifs in the main panel. This striking pattern is echoed by the more delicate chevron stripes appliquéd on the pleats. Another traditional motif not to be missed, the endless knot (panchang), is found in the lower corners of the main panel. It signifies a wish for longevity.
