daopao

Daopao is one of the traditional costumes of Taoism, but it was also the main style of casual wear and dress for scholars in the Ming Dynasty, so Daopao was not necessarily used as all Taoist costumes.

Daopao is a long outer garment with a cross collar and large sleeves, and a concealed Bai on both sides of the garment. The collar edge is wide and a collar guard is usually added. Daopao is larger than Zhiduo and Zhishen of the same size, especially the hem is wider.
