Kakun 1(Hanfu) Sewing Patterns | DRCOS Patterns & How To Make

This is a free sewing pattern for a cosplay-friendly version of the hanfu xiakun (traditional Chinese wrap skirt), designed with seam allowances included for beginners.

This is not a historically accurate hanfu pattern, but a simplified version made to resemble the xiakun while being quick and easy to sew. The design consists of folded pleats, and to keep the pleats crisp and stable, it is recommended to use pleat stabilizers or similar tools during construction.

The pattern is highly versatile as a base for various designs. It can also be used as everyday wear—choose a cute fabric to make a stylish skirt.

The length is intentionally generous, so if you prefer a shorter skirt, you can easily adjust it to your desired length.

After printing, align the pages along the join lines, cut, and use the pattern directly since the seam allowances are already included.
