The Grape Motif, Painted Like a Scroll
Grapes reached Chinese decorative art along the Silk Road, and by the Tang dynasty the vine was being woven into figured silks and cast across bronze mirrors — trellises heavy with fruit, read as a wish for abundance and a full house. Zhi Zao Si paints it the way a Guohua scroll would: ink-toned clusters drifting across a cream ground, soft enough for everyday wear and detailed enough to reward a second look.
The print is an all-over placement print, so the vines fall in the same places on every dress you receive — what you see on the model is what arrives.
Tea-Green Layers, Built for Real Days
Both pieces are 100% polyester, and the fabric names on the label are worth reading closely. The Duijin shirt is a Silk Crepe (真丝皱) weave — dry to the touch, with the soft drape of crepe. The dress is a Lace Cotton (丽丝棉) weave, which keeps the print crisp and stays cool in humid weather. Neither contains silk or cotton — the names describe the weave and the handfeel, not the fiber.
The dress ties at the waist with a self-fabric sash, so you can pull it in for shape or leave it loose; it sits flat across the stomach instead of cutting into it. The shirt hangs open in a parallel-front cut, giving light cover over the upper arms without adding bulk — which makes the set easy in air-conditioned offices and on evenings when the temperature drops.
Part of our summer hanfu range, it is cut to be worn on repeat rather than saved for occasions.
Styling Inspiration
- Office Days: Wear the full set with flat sandals or loafers. The shirt gives the slip dress a layered, covered-up line, so it works where a bare-shouldered dress would not.
- Travel and Weekends: The two pieces pack flat and weigh almost nothing. Wear them together for photos, then keep the shirt for the plane and the dress for dinner.
- Worn Apart: The slip dress takes a knit cardigan or a cropped denim jacket as easily as it takes its own; the Duijin shirt layers over a plain tee and jeans without looking costumed.
- High Summer: On the hottest days, leave the shirt at home — the dress is sleeveless, has adjustable straps, and a side zipper so it stays put through a long day.
Buyer Size Reference
Measurements shared by recent buyers, with the size each one chose.
| Height (cm) | Weight (kg) | Size Bought |
|---|---|---|

| 165 | 55 | M |
| 163 | 62 | L |
| 169 | 65 | L |

Weight tracked the size more closely than height in this set — buyers around 55 kg chose M, while 60 kg and above moved up to L. Heights ran from 160 to 169 cm across both sizes, so consider both figures rather than height alone.
Care & Notes
Hand wash in cold water below 30°C / 86°F with a mild detergent, or use a mesh wash bag on a gentle machine cycle. Do not bleach. Hang to dry in the shade. Iron below 110°C / 230°F. Routine dry cleaning is fine. Wash separately from light-colored clothes for the first few washes — the print may release a little excess dye.
The cut is a real surprise! The thin straps flatter the shoulders and neckline, the flowing long skirt covers the calves, and the high waist elongates the figure. Even curvier figures look graceful and slim in it — it genuinely suits any body type.
Very elegant, photos come out really well, and the price is very reasonable!
I really love this new Chinese style set. The overall tea tone is so elegant, and it isn’t out of place at the office — very wearable day to day. The top features a grape ink-wash Chinese painting, full of Eastern beauty!
Very elegant, the style is lovely, the price is very reasonable, and the craftsmanship is excellent!
I’m completely won over by this outfit! It has Eastern charm without losing a modern feel. Both the material and the workmanship are fine, with no stray threads.
