[China History] Bound by Blood, Denied by Law: A History of Women’s Inheritance in China［Eng Sub］

Step into a thousand years of silence.

This is a film about women’s inheritance rights were gradually stripped away during the era of China’s feudal dynasties.

This is not just history. This is herstory.

A narrative long buried under rituals, surnames, and silence — now unearthed.

▶Portraits of Chinese Women from the Early Qing Dynasty

【Types of Hanfu – Stand Collar Long Shan / 竖领长衫 or 立领长衫】

In the late Ming dynasty, the use of the upright collar (竖领, also known as the standing collar) became widespread. This collar style was a distinctive development during the Ming period and was generally used in women’s clothing. Based on both portraits and surviving garments, it appears to have evolved from overlapping (jiaoling) and straight collars with fastened buttons.

The upright collar stood up and wrapped closely around the neck, offering both a refined appearance and added warmth. It was typically secured with one or two pairs of zimu kou (子母扣)—interlocking buttons often made from metal. If these fasteners were crafted from gold, silver, or even gemstones, they served not only a functional purpose but also became focal decorative elements. Placed at the neckline and front opening—where attention naturally falls—these buttons added a touch of brilliance and conveyed status and elegance.

Some scholars suggest that the popularity of this enclosed collar style may also have been influenced by climatic factors. The late Ming period coincided with the onset of the Little Ice Age, prompting a shift from more open collars to styles that provided better insulation against the cold.

The design of the stand collar long shan proved to be enduring. Even after the fall of the Ming dynasty, it continued into the early and mid-Qing period. Its legacy can be seen lingering into the late Qing, especially in stage costumes worn by opera performers, where echoes of the original structure still remained visible.

A Requiem for a Tang Dynasty Lady — Inspired by the Elegance of the Past

Makeup and styling inspired by: History scholar “Yanwang” Hypothesis & Tang Dynasty female officials’ stone reliefs

🧚‍♀️Model: @清音音音音

⸻

In the prime of her youth, life was cut short—

Yet the lavish burial ornaments she left behind now whisper of an identity at odds with her tragic end.

The inspiration for this look is drawn from the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty, reimagined through both historical texts and the graceful stone carvings of imperial court women. The intricate crown of Li Chui, the refined silhouette of her attire—each detail tells a story of a noblewoman lost to time.

She may have been born into privilege, yet her fate did not reflect the power her surname once held. In the turbulent backdrop of the Wu Zhou court’s political intrigues, even royal blood could not guarantee protection.

Years passed. Her name faded.

But her burial treasures—long buried—emerged once more, inviting a quiet act of remembrance.

This recreation is more than a visual homage. It is a silent dialogue between present and past. An attempt to offer a belated comfort, a moment of shared empathy across dynasties, for not just one ill-fated princess, but for every woman of the Tang court whose story was never told in full.

May this look be a gentle tribute—

Not only to her elegance, but to her humanity.

[Hanfu · 漢服]Chinese Tang Dynasty(618–907AD)Traditional Clothing Hanfu Based On Female Dancer figurines of Tang Dynasty

【Historical Artifacts Reference 】:

▶Set of China Tang Dynasty“Tang Sancai" Figurines of Musicians and Dancers<鳥歌萬歲樂>・Wuzetian Period

Shaanxi Tang Sancai Art Museum Collection

In the Tang Dynasty, women who usually wore bird crowns were mostly dancers, and the bird was often in the shape of a peacock or a parrot.

The historical records mention the bird crown worn by women during the Tang Dynasty several times. For instance, in Du You's Tongdian (Volume 6, "Music Section," regarding the "Sitting and Standing Performers"/《通典》乐六“坐立部伎), it is recorded: "The Guangsheng music(光圣乐) was created by Emperor Xuanzong. The dancers, eighty in number, wore bird crowns and multicolored painted robes. They were dressed in the style of the Upper Yuan and Shenshou festivals, to sing of the emperor's achievements." Similar records are found in Xin Tang Shu /《新唐书》(Volume 22) and Taiping Yulan by Song Li Fang: "When Emperor Zhongzong ascended the throne, he created the Longchi music/龙池乐, with twelve dancers, wearing lotus crowns and stepping on special shoes, performing with elegant music, though without bells. He also created the 'Shenshou music/《圣寿乐》,' in which the female dancers wore five-colored embroidered robes and performed.

Additionally, he created the 'Xiao Po Zhen music/《小破阵乐》,' with dancers dressed in armor. Lastly, the 'Guangsheng music/《光圣乐》' had dancers wearing bird crowns and painted robes, to sing of the emperor's accomplishments."

Taiping Yulan (Volume 568, Music Section 6) records: "Empress Wu had the 'Bird Song for Ten Thousand Years' music composed during a grand banquet in the Eastern Xiangluan Hall of the palace. At that time, birds capable of speaking were kept in the palace, and they often repeated 'Ten Thousand Years.' This music was created to symbolize this. There were three dancers, with large red sleeves, adorned with painted birds resembling the 'quail-like bird' (quyu). In present-day Lingnan, there are birds similar to the quail that, when raised for a long time, can speak, and they are called 'Jilie'/《鸡烈》."

【Historical Artifacts Reference 】:

▶The crown and hair ornaments unearthed from the tomb of Li Chui,/李倕, a fifth-generation granddaughter of Emperor Gaozu of Tang China

2.Gold necklace inlaid with pearls and gemstones, Late Sui Dynasty

Excavated in 1957 from the tomb of Li Jingxun, Xi'an, Shaanxi,China.

"Flourished Peony" (《国色芳华》) is a really cool Chinese drama that dives deep into the Tang Dynasty. It takes a close look at the fashion, makeup, and etiquette of that time. The show’s team did a ton of research, to restore Tang Dynasty artifacts to get the hanfu and makeup just right. You can really see the effort they put into making everything look authentic and true to the era.

If you're into Tang Dynasty Hanfu,Makeup , or the whole vibe of that period, I highly recommend watching this drama. It's a great way to get a glimpse of ancient Chinese culture through a really well-done romantic drama. ---------------

【Debate on the Interpretation and Wearing of the Li Chui Tomb Crown Ornaments】

The crown ornaments unearthed from the tomb of Li Chui (李倕) are still a topic of debate due to the fact that the pieces were found scattered, making the exact method of wearing unclear. The version currently displayed in the museum is a reconstruction based on the collaborative efforts of Chinese and German experts. However, some scholars in China have a different view, arguing that this ornament may not necessarily be a "crown."

Fwe can refer to the perspective of the author(@左丘萌) of Chinese Beauty and Adornments: The Tang Dynasty Daughters (《中国妆束：大唐女儿行》), who offers an alternative interpretation of how this crown ornament was likely worn（If anyone are interested, you can save the picture and translate it through the translator）

the right is the author (@左丘萌)'s restoration result and analysis process of the relics:

[Hanfu · 漢服] China Five Dynasties And Ten Kingdoms Period--Min Kingdom (闽国) Traditional Clothing Hanfu Photoshoots

【Historical Artifacts Reference 】:

Based On Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period: Female Figures from the Tomb of the Empress of Min Kingdom (闽国）

🌸 Four-Butterfly Silver Hairpin (Buyao)

Unearthed from the Tomb of Lady Tang, Southern Tang, Five Dynasties Period

This exquisite silver hair ornament was excavated from the Tomb of Lady Tang located in Daxinggong, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, dating back to the 10th century CE, during the Southern Tang regime of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.The butterfly ornaments are suspended by fine silver chains, swaying as the wearer walks—hence the name “buyao” (步摇, literally "step-shake")

🌸 Gold-Inlaid Jade Hairpin (Buyao)

Unearthed from the Tomb of Lady Tang, Southern Tang, Five Dynasties Period

This elegant gold-inlaid jade hair ornament was unearthed from the tomb of Lady Tang in Daxinggong, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, dating to the Southern Tang state (10th century CE) during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.

Court Ladies Wearing Flowered Headdresses (《簪花仕女图》）

Although the Court Ladies Wearing Flowered Headdresses (《簪花仕女图》) is often mistakenly attributed to the Tang dynasty, art historical evidence indicates it was actually created during the late Tang to Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period (9th–10th century CE).

The painting’s stylistic elements—such as the full-faced court ladies, elaborate hairstyles, floral hairpins (zanhua), and luxurious clothing—align closely with depictions of Southern aristocratic women in the Five Dynasties period, particularly those seen in Southern Tang tomb artifacts. These features reflect the refined elegance and cultural taste of that transitional era, rather than the earlier Tang high period.

🖼️Auction items suspected to be paintings from the Five Dynasties period

Although sometimes associated with Ming dynasty art, many Chinese scholars believe this painting better reflects the style of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. The figure’s proportions, attire, and Daoist elements resemble those seen in late Tang to Southern Tang artworks.

However, the painting’s exact date remains uncertain, and there is ongoing debate due to inconsistent seals and mixed stylistic features.

🔶𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝘆𝗻𝗮𝘀𝘁𝘆 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘁: 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗟𝗶 𝗬𝗶𝗻𝗴‘𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗫𝘂 𝗫𝗶𝘂 李璿妻许秀画像 ｜National Museum of China Collection

Noble Elegance: The Attire of a Ming Dynasty Lady of Rank

In imperial Ming Dynasty China, a "Gaoming Furen" (诰命夫人)—a titled lady granted honors by the court—was a figure of dignity and authority. Her attire reflected her noble standing, with garments and accessories that clearly distinguished her from commoners. Whether entering the palace or walking among the people, her presence was unmistakable. Here’s a breakdown of her formal ensemble:

👑 Diguān (翟冠) – Pheasant Crown A unique crown reserved for noblewomen below the rank of empress, decorated with “Di” birds—long-tailed pheasants resembling phoenixes. These birds symbolized high status, second only to the phoenix. The number of pheasants and gold ornaments indicated rank:

Dukes’ and top-grade ladies: 5 pearl pheasants + 2 gold pheasants holding pearl tassels

2nd–4th rank: 4 pearl pheasants + 2 gold pheasants

5th–6th rank: 3 pearl pheasants + 2 silver-gilded gold pheasants

7th–9th rank: 2 pearl pheasants + 2 silver-gilded gold pheasants

👘 Xiapèi (霞帔) – Regal Cape Known also as "xiāpī" or "pī bó," this evolved from a shawl-like drape into a vest-like garment by the Qing dynasty. Originally worn by imperial concubines, it became a status symbol for titled women. Embroidered with birds like pheasants, peacocks, or mandarin ducks, the center panel—bǔzi—featured motifs based on the husband’s or son’s official rank. Only military wives or mothers used bird, not beast, patterns.

💎 Zhuìzi (坠子) – Pendant Tassels More than just a way to fix the xiapèi in place, these ornate pendants became a ritualistic emblem of rank. Often crafted from gold, silver, or jade, they took shapes like hearts, circles, hexagons, or horseshoes. Birds and floral motifs dominated, with phoenixes appearing in the tombs of princesses and duchesses. Placement varied—from the lower end of the xiapèi in Song and Yuan, to multiple positions on the garment in the Ming.

🪶 Other Elements:

Yuanlingpao (圆领袍): Round-collar robe worn underneath

Hongdashan (红大衫): A large red outercoat

Gédài (革带): A formal belt

Xiangfu (象笏): An ivory tablet held during court ceremonies

This opulent layering was not just fashion—it was a visual hierarchy of power, virtue, and dynasty-defined identity. Imagine carrying the entire weight of the empire's order and honor on your shoulders… in silk, feathers, and gold.
