This uncut silk fabric shows the process of how imperial robes were made. Three lengths of silk, two long pieces and an outer side-fastening flap were sewn together to form a vertical seam down the centre. The fabric was then embroidered to shape the body and upper sleeves of the robe. The embroidery also formed the cutting line for final tailoring at the palace workshop.
