Many of MengMeng's new clothes may be due to the chance to see into the pit, a good-looking Hanfu, or because a lot of publicity on the Internet has opened the door to a new world. But after learning Hanfu, I spent a lot of money on clothes, but I still took a lot of detours, especially in dressing occasions, which is easy to make jokes.
As we all know, the ancient society was hierarchical and strict, and an important direction to distinguish the nature of class and occasion was clothing. From texture to style, from color to pattern, there are strict boundaries, and we must never put the cart before the horse. Although everyone is equal in modern times, you can choose clothes to wear that day according to your preferences and mood. However, when you wear Hanfu, you should still learn from the occasions where ancient costumes are suitable, which will help spread Hanfu culture and facilitate your work and life.
Generally speaking, modern Hanfu can be divided into casual clothes, regular clothes and formal clothes, which are functionally equivalent to daily clothes, small dresses, formal clothes (such as suits and dresses for dinner) and luxury dresses (such as wedding dresses). With this basic concept, you will naturally know what kind of Hanfu you need to wear in your daily life.
So how to choose the right Hanfu according to the occasion in daily life? Here are a few examples for reference.
I. Work and study
Simply put, you can look at the length, cuffs and hem. The longer, the wider and the more formal. This truth can be understood without careful consideration. The work of ancient people was basically farming, weaving and raising animals, so the wide cuffs and hem were naturally not suitable.
Therefore, for scenes such as work or students gathering in the library to study, don't wear some uniforms with wide robes and big sleeves or even dress styles. It is inconvenient to do things by yourself, and it will also affect people around you. In case people around you feel worse about Hanfu, it will not be worth the loss.
For example, semi-lapels, brown, chiffon, or solid colors made in the Song and Jin Dynasties are all good choices for casual wear. If it is well matched, it can be everyday, even if you don't know it is Hanfu. It is more elegant than ordinary clothes and can be worn at work and school.
Second, etiquette occasions, Spring Festival greetings.
Like the above, large-scale festivals are the time when the shape of wide robes and big sleeves shines, especially the New Year is also the best time to review the tradition. At this time, you can take out the "closet" dress to wear, which is not only in line with the atmosphere but also the best publicity for Hanfu.
Such as dresses, straight bodies, skirts, etc. With bright colors and gorgeous accessories, it is very suitable for festive occasions. But at the same time, we should also pay attention to some special shapes that can only be worn at special times. For example, the most well-known crown dress is the wedding dress, and I believe fairies can't make mistakes.
Third, travel and take photos.
After all, traveling and taking photos are a few occasions, which can be exaggerated. For example, the sleeves of the Ming Dynasty are about two meters long. Or a chest-length skirt that can only be fixed with a strap, and there is a fluffy skirt at the corner. Although it is really elegant and smart, it is not suitable for daily wear, but you can make good use of it when traveling and taking pictures. Turn around, who is not a fairy!
In fact, the above distinction is only a general classification, if you add materials, patterns and so on. It can involve many branches. For people who like Hanfu, they need to learn more and accumulate experience in their daily life.
