Liangdang
A classic style of costume emerged during the Southern and Northern Dynasties (420-581). Liangdang consists of front and back pieces, later called the vest. It was convenient for people who work outdoors for long periods.
Although the living standards of ancient times cannot be compared to the modern era, the Chinese people actively explored ways to make their summers more comfortable and convenient.
