One of the taboos about wearing Xiuhe clothing is that you can't embroider raw flowers, because raw flowers are easy to wither, meaning not auspicious enough, so when embroidering flowers, you can't embroider everything, and you should choose flowers with good meanings, such as peony, pomegranate flower, chrysanthemum, lotus, etc. Peony means wealth and honor; Pomegranate flower meaning many children more than happiness; Chrysanthemums symbolize longevity; Lotus has the meaning of silt without staining, symbolizing purity.
