What 裠 means
It names the same skirt or lower-garment word as 裙.
The wider word family, including 裙 and 帬, appears in writing on Warring States bronzes and in Chu and Qin manuscripts; those records do not date 裠's exact form.
Earlier Chinese texts used 裳 for lower garments; 裙 spread in everyday writing in China's early-medieval Wei–Jin era and became the modern standard. 裠 is a variant of 裙.
