Through the change of women's clothing, we can appreciate the change of women's clothing culture in China from conservative tradition to openness and freedom. Under the feudal system, the robes of Manchu women in Qing Dynasty were their traditional dress "cheongsam". Generosity is the most prominent feature of the flagship. Wide coats and long skirts cover all the curves of the human body, leaving no trace.
In the old photos on display, women in the Qing Dynasty wore loose long cheongsam and stood stiffly in front of the camera, as if they were wrapped in cocoons, and all the beauty was gathered in wide clothes.
During the Republic of China, "student clothes" and "cheongsam" were the cultural characteristics of costumes in the era of the integration of Chinese and Western cultures. During the Republic of China, women's education developed rapidly and the number of female students increased greatly. Accordingly, girls' clothes became the trend of women's robes at that time.
At that time, the costumes of female students in the Republic of China were also called "civilized new clothes". Wearing a light blue round neck coat, a knee-length black skirt and a pair of white shoes, the lines of women's calves began to show. In the 1920s, the dress "Cheongsam" was born, which directly showed the female figure curve.
Different from the previous two sets of suits and cheongsam, the slim cheongsam directly shows the female figure and reflects the curvy beauty of the female figure. Both "student clothes" and "cheongsam" are the products of the integration and collision of Chinese and western clothing elements.
After the founding of New China, more colorful dresses reflect the open and free social dress culture. There are many styles of women's robes and many renovations. Cheongsam patterns are more decorative to women's bodies, and there are new styles such as high collars and forks.
After the reform and opening up in the 1980s, the innovation and changes of women's gowns became more obvious. The more slim style, open dress design, complex and exquisite gusset accessories, rich and fashionable color matching and diversified women's gown clothing, the more boldly set off and show the beauty of women.
Today, the popular "retro style" and various retro elements fully prove that fashion is a reincarnation.
