Round collar robe

The Round collar robe, also called yuanlingpao (Chinese: 圆领袍; Chinese: 圓領袍; pinyin: yuánlǐngpáo; lit. 'round collar robe') and yuanlingshan in China, danryeong (Korean: 단령; Hanja: 團領; RR: dallyeong; MR: tallyŏng; simplified Chinese: 团领; traditional Chinese: 團領; pinyin: tuánlǐng; lit. 'round collar') in Korea, was a style of paofu, a Chinese robe, worn in ancient China, which was long enough to cover the entire body of its wearer. The Chinese yuanlingpao was developed under the influences of the Hufu worn by the Donghu people and by the Wuhu (including the Xianbei). Depending on time period, the Chinese yuanlingpao also had some traces of influences from the Hufu worn by the Sogdian. The Chinese yuanlingpao continued to evolve, developing distinctive Chinese characteristics with time and lost its Hufu connotation. It eventually became fully integrated in the Hanfu system for the imperial and court dress attire. Under the influence of ancient China, the Chinese yuanlingpao was adopted by the rest of the East Asian cultural sphere.
