In 1663, uncompromising 'Jochu Irui Nedan no Jo' (女中衣類直段之定) was announced, restricting even the clothing costs of the retired Emperor Meisho (an empress regnant, silver 500 Kan) and midaidokoro (the lawful wife of seii taishogun [literally, "great general who subdues the barbarians"], 400 kan of silver).
寛文3年（1663年）には「女中衣類直段之定」が定められ、当時の明正上皇（女帝、銀500貫目）や御台所（征夷大将軍正室、銀400目）の衣装代にまで制約をかける徹底的なものであった。
