Many people have watched the 86th edition of Journey to the West countless times, which may have been misled by stylists and dressers. In fact, in the original work, the aesthetics and clothes of monsters can't even keep up with the trend of the world. The author describes the appearance of monsters, but the description of jewelry and clothes in pen and ink is not much, which is the best way to praise the gods. Describe how luxurious the fairy's clothes are and how dazzling the jewels are, which is the description of the original author in line with the social class.
Most monsters practice in seclusion in the mountains, have little contact with people, and their ideology is not in place. Even if you seduce people, you seduce them by taxiing. They don't need to show their image in front of the world, and it's normal to dress backward. But it is also possible to choose a general from the lame:
The Monkey King of Huaguoshan, who appeared first, was the protagonist the Monkey King later. He is a stone monkey. He is a monster without celestial organization. At that time, he went to the East King of the East China Sea to rip him off, and got the golden hoop stick of Dinghai Shenzhen and the "luxury gift package" given to him by the Dragon King: locked golden flowers, lotus roots walking in the clouds, purple crowns of phoenix wings and his own red cloak. Later, the clothes used in heaven were more gorgeous. After his contact with heaven, his costume was upgraded to a new level, wearing gorgeous military and civilian sleeves and his belt was covered with jewels.
Then the scorpion essence. Unlike other backward banshees, she is a fashionable monster living in the daughter country. Among women, she naturally pays more attention to makeup and beauty. When the Monkey King entered her abode of fairies and immortals, she was angry at the Monkey King for spying on her appearance. Then when the Monkey King and Pig joined forces to kill her, she actually asked her men to freshen up for her first, and then went to see them. Although the author doesn't describe much about her dress, she must be a well-dressed monster.
In fact, the description of monster clothes in The Journey to the West's original works is very simple. Only a few monsters have jewelry. If you want to see fashionable clothes, you still have to look at the trend immortals like Guanyin and Chang 'e, who are outstanding in appearance and luxuriously dressed.
