changsheng li wearing a chinese emperor's garb.
the hat is called a miǎnguān and it's worn by emperors, ministers, and various aristocrats for important events before the fall of the ming dynasty.
i saw a really cool screenshot of a film called "the emperor's shadow". near the end the emperor wears this outfit for...something (i didn't watch the movie), and it was a very beautiful ensemble.
sighh this outfit was originally gonna be a lot more intricate (designs on the borders and shit) but my hands started hurting and i took it as a sign to stop for the day...and then i completely lost interest in completing the piece. still looks good tho.
I wonder if someone plays the beginning of Call Call Call! out loud, someone else thinks they just got and missed a phone call.
