Clothing is the general name of clothes, shoes and decorations, which refers to clothes. In national standards, clothing is defined as products sewn and worn to protect and decorate the human body, also known as clothes.

Clothing appeared in the early stage of the development of human society. At that time, the ancients made some materials into simple "clothes" and put them on their bodies. The earliest clothes of human beings were mostly made of animal skins, and the earliest "fabrics" were made of fibers such as hemp and grass. For the society, clothing has become a daily necessity for covering and decoration, not only for wearing, but also a kind of identity, an attitude towards life and a manifestation of personal charm.

China clothing has a long history, which can be traced back to ancient times. Bone needles dating from about 6.5438+0.8 million years ago were excavated from the Ape Cave in Zhoukoudian, Beijing. Tubular spicules were also unearthed at Hemudu Neolithic site in Yuyao, Zhejiang. It can be inferred that these spicules were used to sew original clothes at that time. The first clothes worn by the ancestors of China people were aprons made of leaves or skins.

Later, the costumes of each dynasty had their own characteristics, which were closely related to the production level of agriculture, animal husbandry and textile industry at that time. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, men and women wore a "deep coat" style. Hemp, hemp and kudzu fabrics are the staple materials of working people. Rulers and nobles widely use silk fabrics.

In some areas, wool, feathers and kapok fibers are also used for textile. The spinning performance, weaving and printing and dyeing technology of silk and hemp fibers were developed in Han Dynasty. Dyed fabrics include yarn, silk, brocade, cloth and silk, and clothing materials are greatly rich.
