In the long history, China's clothing has continuously absorbed foreign clothing cultural elements, enriching the clothing culture of the Chinese nation. Mr. Zhou Xibao, a famous clothing expert, summed up five major clothing changes in China's clothing history.
1. During the Warring States Period, it was "Khufu riding and shooting" in Wuling, Zhao Haoqi.
This time, due to political and military needs, trousers, hooks and boots of northwest hunting folk were introduced into the Central Plains. The biggest influence of this change in the history of China's clothing is to change the lower garment into trousers.
2. Wei and Jin dynasties.
During this period, the communication between ethnic groups was very common. Influenced by metaphysics in Wei and Jin Dynasties, taking off tops and sleeves became the main dress style in this period. As Buddhism flowed into the Central Plains, Buddhist art also influenced the shape and pattern of clothing.
3. Tang Dynasty.
Hufu and the costumes influenced by the western regions greatly enriched the costumes of the Tang Dynasty. This is also the conscious period of absorbing foreign national costumes in China's clothing history.
4. After Manchu nobles established the Qing Dynasty.
The clothing reform was the most intense, and the harsh political rule and oppression made Manchu clothing become the mainstream of China clothing.
5. During the Republic of China.
For the first time, the government of the Republic of China "introduced" western clothes as China clothes. Since then, western costume patterns and costume culture have profoundly influenced and impacted the traditional costumes in China. This is the most profound change in China's clothing history.
