Bold colors, traditional construction, and funky flying sparrow print!

The Luoyan Qi 落燕栖 A Swallow's Perch Set contains Late Ming Dynasty silhouettes in contemporary colors! Mix and match each piece as you please to create your very own unique Ming look.

Jacquard sparrows fly up and down the Dajin Changshan 大襟长衫 (large panel long shirt), featuring extra wide and dramatic sleeves in a lightweight material. This base shirt can be worn underneath other layering pieces or as is. 

Base fabric features subtle jacquard with floral imprint, of course the sparrows fly everywhere on this breezy top. The misty blue base color is a refreshing and light choice, perfect for these warmer seasons!

Add the lightweight Bijia 比甲 (long vest), made in a flowy soft tencel fabric. Parallel panel collar design drags the eyes down and elongates the body. Adorable contrast ribbons add a darling touch ~ 

Pair with the Mamianqun 马面裙 (horse face skirt), the most popular skirt of Renaissance China. Constructed with trapezoidal side pleats and two large panels on the front and back, this skirt creates a gently A-line shape without the need for a petticoat! 

Bright plum fuchsia is refreshing and a surprisingly good color combo with that light blue top. 

This version of the skirt is made with a lightweight gauze for summer heat! If you’d like a hefty swallow skirt, please check out the Xian Chun 衔春 Holding Spring Set.
