Dior was accused of copying China's horse face skirt. What is a horse face skirt?
Horse-face skirt is mainly a kind of clothes worn by women in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Mainly prevalent in the Ming and Qing dynasties, it is characterized by four skirt doors, all decorated, and the inner skirt doors are decorated with little or no decoration. There are wrinkles on the side of the horse face skirt, and the waist of the skirt is often made of white cloth, which means to grow old together. At this time of the Ming dynasty, horse-faced skirts generally used seven pieces of cloth, every three and a half pieces were put together to form a skirt, and two pieces were enclosed into a skirt; Four overlapping skirt doors at the front and back of the skirt are kept flat, with large and sparse pleats on both sides, which are fixed with skirts of different colors, and straps are sewn at both ends of the skirt waist; The skirt is wide and the bottom of the swing is decorated with ornaments. The decorative patterns of skirts often adopt auspicious patterns with rich meanings, and people from the mother of a country to Lebanon like to wear horse-faced skirts.

However, different classes have strict differences in the texture and color decoration of horse-face skirts. At that time, it was not called "horse face skirt", and the overall color was beautiful, giving people a fresh and elegant feeling. In the Qing Dynasty, Han women continued to inherit the style of the Ming Dynasty in dress, but the horse face and skirt pleats were complicated, with as many as 100 pleats. Skirts become dead pleats, and there are edges between pleats, which leads to the formation of side pleats, dry pleats and phoenix tail styles. Since then, with the continuous simplification of skirts, they have been gradually eliminated.

Dior skirt

Dior introduced this dress, its one-piece tailoring, unique skirt door design and pleated waist design are all very similar to China horse face skirt, which is obviously a cultural appropriation! However, netizens in China expressed dissatisfaction with this and accused Dior brand of "plagiarism" and "cultural appropriation" online. All this is because official website's introduction didn't explain the source of inspiration, just saying that "this miniskirt adopts the iconic Dior silhouette and is a brand-new elegant and fashionable item". I didn't submit anything else in the whole process, which made China netizens very angry!

Dior copied the skirt.

Perhaps because of various opinions of netizens or other factors, Dior quietly removed this product from the shelves in official website, China, but this new skirt can still be seen on Dior official website abroad. So far, Dior has not responded to this incident. A gentleman sits and talks, but a teenager does it. After this incident broke out, Chinese in China and overseas Chinese in London, Paris, new york and other countries put on Hanfu and marched in succession to speak out for Dior's plagiarism of China's "horse-face skirt incident".
