Hanfu, the full name is "the traditional costume of the Han nationality", also known as Hanfu, Huafu and Huafu. From the accession of the Yellow Emperor to the mid-Kloc-0/7th century (late Ming and early Qing Dynasty), in the main residential areas of the Han nationality, with the "Huaxia-Han" culture as the background and the Chinese etiquette culture as the core, through natural evolution, a unique Han personality was formed, which was obviously different from other nationalities. It is the embodiment of China's "country of clothes", "country of etiquette", "country of splendid china" and "country of Cyrus", bearing the excellent craftsmanship and aesthetics of the Han nationality, and inheriting more than 30 Chinese intangible cultural heritages and protected China arts and crafts.
When the left skirt and the right skirt cross the chest in Hanfu, the neckline naturally crosses, so it is vividly called "cross collar"; The intersection of two straight lines on the left and right sides of the center line of clothing represents the symmetry of traditional culture, shows a unique charm of righteousness and represents impartiality in life. If Hanfu represents the unity of heaven and man, then the intersection represents the earth at the circle and represents human nature, that is, square and righteousness. Sleeves are round, representing the sky in the round place. The expression of this kind of local studies in Hanfu is also a reflection of the ancient culture of China.
The most typical collar shape of Hanfu is "cross-neck right slit", that is, the collar is directly connected with the skirt, the skirt crosses the chest, and the left skirt presses the right skirt, which is Y-shaped in appearance, forming the effect that the whole garment leans to the right. Gee, the original skirt. The right axillary frenum of the left front cover, inside the right front cover, is called the right seam, and vice versa. This is the tradition that Hanfu has always maintained the same style, and it is also closely related to China's thought of "respecting power". These characteristics are obviously different from the costumes of other nationalities.
Another kind of "horizontal collar" is "straight collar", and "collar" straight collar means that the collar comes down directly from the chest, parallel and vertical, and does not pass through the chest. Some have lacing on their chests, while others speak directly without lacing. This kind of straight-collared clothes is generally worn outside the cross-collared Hanfu, and is often used in everyday coat styles such as tops, half-arms, buttons, etc. Collar is a common style in men's wear. The collar is disc-shaped, with a tie on the right collar and shoulder. It is used in official clothes of Han and Tang dynasties, and it also has collar type in daily clothes.
