The temperature during the period keeps between 20-30C and you can prepare some light clothes like shirts and dresses. A thin coat or jacket is also necessary.

BTW, it is the National Day holiday during that time. Attractions will be crowded and hotel fee will be much higher.

Long-sleeve t-shirt plus a thin overcoat would be enough. You may also wear hoodies or thin knitwear.
