520 8  Focusing on the dress and accessories of the Qing dynasty 
       (1644-1911), this exquisite book captures the grandeur of 
       the garments worn by emperors and empresses for defined 
       formal engagements. In Qing dynasty China, there were 
       clear rules on what to wear on different occasions. 
       Official dress was worn when the emperor performed 
       sacrifices at the 'Temple of Heaven' and at other 
       important rituals. Auspicious dress was for New Year, 
       birthdays and weddings. Military dress for troop 
       inspection; travelling dress for hunting and royal visits 
       to provinces, and ordinary dress for events of a non-
       celebrative nature, such as mourning. When not performing 
       public duties, however, the imperial family could freely 
       choose which garments to wear - and this book also 
       illustrates these more casual clothes with colourful and 
       stunning fashion dresses made for the court ladies.
