'Great jacket'), is a form of paofu, Chinese robe, which was derived from the Qing dynastyqizhuang, the traditional dress of the Manchu people, which were worn by Manchu men.[1]: 129 The changshan was actually developed by the Han Chinese through the modification of their own Ming dynasty'sHanfu by adopting some Manchu men's clothing elements in one of their Hanfuchangshan.[1]: 129 In function, the changshan is considered the male equivalent of the women's cheongsam (also known as qipao). The changshan was often worn by men with a magua, also commonly translated as "riding jacket" in English language.
