### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great work on medieval style
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on 24 July 2021*

I had a sudden serious need to find out about Tang Dynasty style, and was getting desperate when a friend (expert on the period) alerted me to this new book.  Problem solved: this is an excellent introduction to the clothing of China's "cosmopolitan empire" (in the words of Mark Lewis).  China was greatly influenced by west and central Asia, especially in clothing.  Court ladies as well as entertainers loved to wear central Asian styles, especially for horseback activities, Chinese robes being unsuited to that purpose.  The ladies clearly found it liberating to wear simple form-fitting dress and gallop across the fields.  Chen's book explains not only the styles but the methods of production, which included clamp-dyeing, a new dyeing method invented at the time by a court lady.
