【Learn Chinese】Women’s Clothing: Do you know all these
 
In this week’s article, let’s look at 20 common Chinese words you can use to describe women’s clothing and shoes. Let’s begin by looking at women’s clothing in general. The word to refer to ladies and the female gender in Chinese is: 女 (nǚ). So, when you search for items online, you can simply add the word “女” to filter out what you’re looking for.
Besides, you will often notice the character 装 (zhuāng), “clothing” or “costume”, added to 女 (nǚ) to refer to “women’s clothing”: 女装 (nǚzhuāng)
