In the late Tang Dynasty, women's daily attire was still dominated by a combination of shirts (Shan/衫), skirts (Qun/裙), and Pibo (披帛), but compared with the mid-Tang Period, which advocated the sharp silhouette of the upper small and the lower large, the late Tang Period was more fashionable to create a rounded and loose silhouette.

In terms of hairstyle, all kinds of asymmetrical hairstyle are popular, and it is fashionable to wrap the hair bun with various precious fabrics, which has both practical functions and decorative features. “五陵年少争缠头，一曲红绡不知数“”（From the narrative poem "Pipa Xing /琵琶行 “by Bai Juyi in the Tang Dynasty）” is Refers to such attire.

“五陵年少争缠头，一曲红绡不知数”
