U+88BF "袿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

袿

U+88BF "袿" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a traditional Chinese character that in modern usage primarily refers to a type of ancient Chinese garment, specifically a long, unlined gown or robe worn by women during the Han and Jin dynasties, often featuring a distinctive split or seam at the collar or side. The character combines the semantic component for clothing (衤) with the phonetic element "圭" (gui), reflecting its historical classification as a ceremonial upper garment or a dress-like attire, and it appears in classical texts such as the "Shuowen Jiezi" dictionary where it is defined as a jacket or women's long coat. In contemporary contexts, "袿" is rarely used in everyday vocabulary but may appear in historical literature, fashion studies, or character sets for classical Chinese restoration, preserving its link to ancient attire rather than as a common modern term.
