Talk:Fa Mulan/@comment-3528058-20120820153620

I love Mulan's matchmaker outfit, but I always wanted to know what the "official" name of her outfit and makeup is, or what period in China's history it's based on and when and why Chinese women in real life wore outfits and makeup like that. Whatever it is, seems like the Japanese borrowed it (Japan has a lot of Chinese influence) and used it for geishas, especially since I remember learning kimonos come from Chinese robes (I wish i knew the name). If anyone knows, please tell me :)
