Design Story & Cultural Inspiration
This skirt reimagines the timeless elegance of traditional Chinese Ma Mian (horse-face) skirts, a symbol of Ming-Qing dynasty fashion, for contemporary wear. The high-waisted silhouette, paired with an adjustable silk tie-waist, harmonizes ancient craftsmanship with modern comfort. Inspired by Hanfu’s graceful lines, it features a front slit (men) for effortless movement and a flattering A-line drape, blending heritage with versatility.
Key Features
- Signature Ma Mian Silhouette: Wide, flowing panels on either side of a central slit, creating a dramatic yet wearable shape.
- Adjustable Silk Waistband: A long tie-waist (92–104 cm) allows customizable fit, ensuring comfort for waists 62–82 cm.
- Functional Front Slit: A thoughtfully sized opening (22–26 cm) for ease of walking while preserving sophistication.
- Premium Fabric: Crafted from silk-blend satin (soft, lustrous, and breathable) or cotton-linen (lightweight, textured, and durable).
- Versatile Styling: Pairs with both traditional Hanfu tops and modern outfits for seamless cultural fusion.
