The basic national policy of "abating martial arts and repairing literature" has gradually led Cheng Zhu's Neo Confucianism to a dominant position. Under the control of this ideology, people's aesthetic concepts have changed accordingly. Clothing has begun to advocate frugality, and has been following the tradition, simplicity and reason to become the main features of the dress of the Song Dynasty.

In particular, the requirements for women's clothing are particularly strict.

In the early years of ningzong and Jia Tai, the gold and stone jewelry used by women in imperial court was concentrated on arson and incineration, except for imperial concubines.

In the early years of the Song Dynasty, women's hair styles were inherited from the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. They were made of high bun. Most of them were mixed with wigs, and some of them were made directly into wigs with various shapes in their wig, and they were put on their heads. This violated the principle of simple clothing in Neo Confucianism.

It can be seen that under the influence of Cheng Zhu's theory, the costumes of the Song Dynasty are very formal and simple.
