Characteristics of Clothing in Rococo Period and Its Modern Application
When each culture develops to the extreme, it will always stimulate the emergence of another culture, which is often the inheritance of the former and the modification and development on the basis of the former. Thus, in the late Baroque period, Rococo culture came into being. /kloc-At the beginning of the 0/8th century, baroque art continued to be popular in Europe, and at the same time, an artistic style called "Rococo" came into being in France. Rococo evolved from the French word rocaille, which originally meant an interior decoration made of shells and pebbles. Generally speaking, the Rococo period mainly refers to the period from King Louis XV of France (later 17 15) to Louis XVI (ending at 1789). She has no religious flavor and exaggerated emotional expression of baroque art, but some are sweet, light, exquisite and gorgeous. In men's wear, the style has been finalized, that is, the embryonic form of modern suits, and men's coats have gradually become straight lines. It is often accompanied by the design of short front and long back. At the same time, the collar design has also appeared, and the sleeves have changed from the original big opening to the style that fits the arm. After 2005, pants were mainly bright colors, while socks remained basically unchanged. In 2008+2076, men's coats began to remove redundant decorations, which eased the tightness of the waist and made them more practical. This kind of jacket is called husband. If the Baroque period was a man's world, then the Rococo period was a woman's world. Therefore, Rococo style is concentrated in women's clothing. This era is the center of women's salons. In such a social environment, the decoration of women's clothing has reached its peak. The characteristics of women's clothing are bra+skirt bra+skirt. By the middle of18th century, the production technology was more advanced, mainly reflected in the number and aspects of embedded baleen. The seams of the cloth are handled very skillfully, and the corsets are usually tied at the back. Rob, wrapped in a corset, has an opening in the front and his chest is decorated with an inverted triangle corset. The center of Stamaca is as sharp as the bra inside, which not only makes the waist look thinner visually, but also leads people's eyes to "Happy Valley". Rococo clothing fabrics are mostly made of soft materials, romantic and luxurious. Most fabrics are elegant and exquisite, such as satin, yarn elimination and lace, which are elegant and transparent. The local characteristic design is strengthened in classical style, often decorated with gorgeous lace, collar pleats and sleeves, exquisite embroidery techniques and detailed designs such as bows and roses are also common. In autumn and winter, materials such as mohair, high proportion of rabbit hair, strong mercerizing feeling and soft wool are used, and the surface treatment of fabrics with concave-convex feeling and relief feeling is paid attention to. Fashion design themes are like various grasses and mussels, roses and palm trees. With the soft light pink tone as the center, it forms a bright, soft and elegant color tendency. I like to use light colors, such as light green, pink and scarlet. , very spectacular. I often use exaggerated wigs, hats, skirts and other styles to set off. Use a hairstyle with Rococo characteristics, elegant makeup and clothes. Clothing details are very delicate, mostly using soft and delicate floral patterns, adding metal flash jacquard fabric or hand-drawn printing and embroidery fabric, which is highly manual. Grasping the overall design tone, reasonably and selectively using and strengthening local decorative features in the prototype style is the focus of Rococo's overall design. In a word, Rococo-style clothing has a soft, soft and romantic theme, which highlights the overall image of women as beautiful, moving and full. Although it has lost its delicacy and softness, the feeling of washing lines, colors, luster and patterns developed by Rococo art has had a great and far-reaching impact on clothing design and provided us with extremely rich nutrition. However, it is wrong to think that rococo is purely bourgeois vulgar and frivolous art.
Jean Anto, a painter in Wot Teau (A.D.1684-1721a), faithfully recorded the clothes at that time. Women put on corsets under their clothes, and the skirt frame rose again. At this time, the skirt frame is flat and symmetrical, with a petticoat outside and a cloak-like coat outside, which is called Wotteau dress. In men's wear, the style has been finalized, which is the embryonic form of modern suits. After 1760, the key point of men's wear change is that men's coats gradually become straight lines, often accompanied by the design of short front and long back. The collar is designed with short sleeves and sleeveless lapels that fit the arm vest. Now the collar is designed with shorter sleeves and sleeveless lapels to fit the arm vest.
Cleopatra embodies the costume characteristics of Rococo period. The status of women in Rococo era was very high, so that era put great emphasis on female beauty. Correspondingly, the color and style of clothes are also very feminine. The big skirt, waist, waist and low collar highlight the curves of women with an exaggerated language. At that time, there were many artificial beauties, including corsets, which were not completely natural. The same is true for hair, which is made very high and contains a lot of supporting materials. These are all exaggerations of female beauty. In color, whether it is clothing fabric or makeup, it is very soft.
Feminization returns in this season's fashion trend, which is in sharp contrast with the characteristics of straight line and neutrality. Many popular elements this year come from the Rococo era, such as the bud skirt, for example, the curve cut fits the body very well, and even the professional clothes have a low neckline design. We seldom wear big skirts in movies in our daily life, but we can see the sense of volume, and it has become a trend of fashion to turn flat fabrics into three-dimensional feelings and apply them to clothes we can wear now.
Movies that tell the details of life in the past years skillfully cater to people's nostalgia. In modern life, people always blindly pursue speed, and may forget some values in the process of pursuing speed. At this time, people are willing to put down the rhythm, reminisce about the past and begin to feel nostalgic. Because modern life depends on technology and communication tools, people don't meet often. Over time, people will feel that people actually need direct contact as before. In fact, whether men or women, especially women, should reflect the beautiful side of life more often.
Generally speaking, the most significant difference between Rococo art style and Baroque art style is that Rococo art tends to be refined, elegant and decorative. This feature certainly influenced the clothing at that time, making the clothing pay great attention to details, especially the decoration of the edges (such as the large lace on the neckline and cuffs). Baroque style promotes visual "chaos", which can be said that Baroque inherits the art of affectation. Due to the irreplaceable grandeur and meticulous beauty of Baroque and Rococo periods, it also led to the return of retro clothing in recent years. This is particularly prominent in Dior's high fashion. Perhaps many harsh critics think that the costumes of these two periods are symbols of depravity, but it is undeniable that this has brought an irreplaceable visual feast to human society and pushed art to a peak, which is beyond the reach of other arts.

Costume in Rococo Period:/kloc-Baroque costume in the 0/7th century is a peculiar costume with men as the center and Louis XIV's court as the stage.
In contrast, rococo clothing in the18th century is an elegant style centered on women and developed on the salon stage. In the history of clothing, it generally refers to the historical trend stage of 17 15- 1789. Judging from its development process, it can be divided into three periods, namely, the Rococo dawn period of 17 15- 1730, that is, the transition period from Baroque to Rococo. On the one hand, the shadow of Baroque remains the same, on the other hand, it develops towards delicate and soft female interest; Rococo reached its peak at 1730- 1770; During the decline of 1770- 1790, there were many changes and improvements in clothing, indicating the arrival of a new era. Marie Antoinette, the Princess of Louis XVI, took Betan (RLSE· Betan 1744- 18 12) as her exclusive fashion designer.
Rococo style is called artificial art by Europeans. It shows more feminine characteristics than Baroque in clothing, which is the continuation of Baroque art. Baroque pleated style is also very different from Rococo style. Baroque is more regular, and rococo is a gradual change of wrinkles, which is more aesthetic. The most striking difference between Rococo art style and Baroque art style is that Rococo art tends to be exquisite, elegant and decorative. This feature certainly influenced the clothing at that time, making the clothing pay great attention to details, especially the decoration of the corners (such as the large lace on the neckline and cuffs).
Men's wear in Rococo period: Abby+Best+Kyurot three-piece style
/kloc-a three-piece suit for men, which was formed in the 0/7th century, gradually developed into modern men's wear in style and modeling in the 0/8th century. /kloc-At the beginning of the 0/8th century, Kustikol was renamed "Abby", and her figure was the same as before, with her waist folded and her hem unfolded in waves. In order to stretch the hips, the hem is lined with ponytail and hard linen or whalebone. There is also a row of materials on the front placket, but the shapes and patterns inlaid on the buttons are endless, and the favorite materials are all kinds of gems. After 17 15, Abby's materials and palette are much softer than before, and a large number of light satin are used, omitting the decoration of gold brocade on the front. Because Abby has become simple, Best looks luxurious in it. The materials are brocade, silk and wool. Clothes embroidered with gold thread or satin are generally twice as short as Abby's. The cuffs of the shirt are decorated with ruffles made of silk or fine cloth, which are exposed from Abby's cuffs. Kyuro's lower body is cut with oblique silk, and the part is tight. It is said that it is so tight that you can see the muscles of your legs clearly, and you don't need to wear a belt or sling. After reading 17 15, use bright satin, the length is still below the knee, and the pants are fixed with three or four buttons.
/kloc-In the middle of 0/8th century, Britain entered the period of industrial revolution, and men's wear changed. The typical wearing way is: Frak+Kilai+Kyurot.
1760, the men's coat began to remove the redundant parts, and the hem of the coat became less slack and became more practical. This kind of coat on the morning is called frac (in Britain), and its biggest feature is that the front is diagonally cut from the waist line to the back waist. This is the first step of the tuxedo in the next era, and it is now. Its material is still silk, often printed or striped.
1780, wool flack appeared in England, and this simple and practical English flack has since become a stereotype of men's wear. Britain has also established the dominant position of men's fashion. At the same time, gorgeous Abby became a dress. In view of the change of the coat, the baby inside was shortened to the waist line or slightly longer, and the sleeves of Best were gone, and the predecessor of modern western-style vest "gilet" appeared. The front piece of the vest is still made of gorgeous fabric, while the usually invisible back piece is made of simple and cheap cloth or lining. /kloc-In the middle of the 8th century, a new coat named Dan Lu Gott appeared. The name comes from British riding clothes. What is popular in France at this time is a travel coat with two or three collars, which looks like Abby. So in the Louis XVI era, Rudangot often changed Abby and wore it directly outside the best.
Women's wear in Rococo period
If the Baroque period was a man's world, then the Hercocoa period was a woman's world. Therefore, Rococo style is concentrated in women's clothing. This era is the center of women's salons, and it is a "work of art" and pet that men watch and pursue. Such a social environment makes the external formal beauty (artificial beauty) of women's wear develop to the peak. The characteristics of women's clothing are bra+skirt bra+skirt.
By the middle of the18th century, the production technology was more advanced, and the key was the number and direction of embedded baleen. Many baleen were embedded in the Colijn. The seams of the cloth are handled skillfully, and the corsets are usually tied at the back. Rob, who covers the outside of the bra, has an opening in front and an inverted triangle bra Stamaka on his chest. The center of Stamaca is as sharp as the bra inside, which not only makes the waist look thinner visually, but also leads people's eyes to "Happy Valley".
During this period, there appeared the skirt support more than 100 years ago, which was called "panier" (panier means in English that baskets and cages are badly needed. Named after the surface of its back cage looks like a horse carrying things), Rococo reached its peak in the Louis XV era (1730- 1770), and Panielle became bigger and bigger, which made it easier to travel and improved. A skirt called Panielle "Dobl" appeared, which was much more convenient.
Several women's dresses in Rococo period: French Rob, Polish Rob, etc. ...
/kloc-Boucher, a famous painter in the 0/8th century, painted a portrait of Madame de Pompadour, the mistress of King Louis X, in 1756. At that time, his wife was 35 years old, wearing a typical French gun. Rob, who plays close to the front of his upper body, has a gorgeous blue-green satin petticoat below. The chest is V-shaped, revealing the inverted triangle chest block "Pees“Distoma". This chest pad is made of silk. Every time I wear clothes, it is often beautifully sewn on Rob or decorated with jewels. Madame de Pompadour's name tag has ten rose ribbon bows arranged in order of size from top to bottom, which is very luxurious and feminine. Ribbon bows on the chest block are repeatedly decorated in Rob's opening, petticoat hem, left chest, top of head and cuffs, echoing each other. Three-layer cuffs are made of the highest-grade lace, which is a unique decoration popular in European women's wear from the end of17th century to the middle of18th century. At that time, the sleeves were as long as the elbows, and the elbows were decorated with three wavy frills made of slender lace or embroidered cotton cloth, which was very luxurious. This typical French Robonarococo or redundant decoration perfectly maintains harmony, presenting a washing, exquisite and slender beauty.
The period of Louis XVI (1770- 1789) was a period of style change when rococo ended and neoclassicism rose. Therefore, the change of clothing is more complicated. 1776, influenced by Polish clothing, a picture of a robe a la polonaise-1 1 appeared, which was characterized in that the skirt part was lifted up at two places like a curtain or a door curtain at that time, and three soft bulges appeared on the buttocks. In order to tie up the skirt, rob buttons or ribbons are decorated in the same place on the surface, and the string falls from the inside and ties up the skirt through the skirt. The rope end is hung or tied on the surface button, and there is a belt on the inner skirt. The rope passes through this ring to lift the skirt up and tie it, and the appearance also forms the shape of the skirt being rolled up.
At this time, there appeared a kind of coat that absorbed the functionality of men's wear-Caraco. This jacket has a tight upper body, wavy hem and hip length, much like a man's Kuestkol, with whalebone embedded in the back to make it straight, long sleeves and cropped sleeves.
In the1780s, Panyr disappeared, and her skirt became soft, but she continued to use a corset for plastic surgery, wearing a small shawl on her shoulders, and a hip pad named Tornier replaced the skirt. Just like at the end of 17, the back buttock is swollen again. Countries outside France call it cue de paris (meaning "the ass of Paris").
