Characteristics of Hanfu in various dynasties

Han Dynasty

Women's dresses are mainly dark clothes. The notable feature is that the number of layers of the placket is increased, and the hem of the clothes is enlarged. There is a large continuation gusset, that is, the placket. Hence the name "continuation". The wide placket can be wrapped around the back and then tightened with a belt to keep warm in winter.

 

Wei Jin Southern and Northern Dynasties Han Dynasty

Women's shirts and skirts in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties Women's clothing in the Wei and Jin Dynasties inherited the legacy of the Qin and Han Dynasties, and absorbed the characteristics of ethnic minority clothing, and improved on the basis of tradition. The waist is tied with a silk belt, and the styles are mostly frugal at the top and full at the bottom, mainly wide and broad. Striped mid-color skirt tied at the waist with a silk ribbon. The bodice is tight-fitting, the cuffs are fat, the skirt is a pleated skirt, the length of the skirt is long, and the hem is loose, so as to achieve a handsome and unrestrained effect. Coupled with rich jewelry, it reflects the luxurious and beautiful style.

Tang Dynasty

The country is unified, the economy is prosperous, the form is more open, and the costumes are more and more gorgeous. Women's clothing in the Tang Dynasty is characterized by the unity of skirts, shirts and ties. Among women, the image of bare chest and arms appeared. The characteristic of short skirts is that the waist of the skirt is tied higher, usually above the waist, and some are even tied under the armpit, giving people a pretty and slender feeling.

Song Dynasty

The spirit of Chinese classical aesthetics has been developed to the extreme, but under the influence of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, the clothing of Song people is very elegant and simple. The big sleeves in the Song Dynasty were originally the big-sleeved shirts, long skirts, and cloaks of the Song Dynasty, which were left over from the late Tang and Five Dynasties. The casual clothes of the Song Dynasty were more popular among women in the Song Dynasty. Most of them are double-breasted, with the placket partially open and not tied with buttons or ropes, allowing the inner garment to be exposed. The length of the clothes is mostly below the knee, and some are even with the skirt.

Ming Dynasty

The most prominent feature is the buttons on the front placket instead of the knots that have been used for thousands of years. Compared with the Tang Dynasty, the obvious inversion of the proportion of the clothes and skirts lies in the fact that the tops are short and the bottoms are long, and the tops are gradually lengthened, and the length of the exposed skirts is shortened. The collar has also changed from the opposite collar in the Song Dynasty to the round collar. The body is longer, decorated with gold and jade pendants, plus cloud shoulders, bijia (big vest) and so on. In the Ming Dynasty, there was also a special style of peacock, which was named "Xiapei" because of its beautiful shape like a rainbow.

Modern Hanfu

The latter is not limited to the ancient system in terms of patterns and materials, but is more integrated into the aesthetics of the Han people today, using modern techniques such as blending, but still not departing from the characteristics of rigorous modeling and rigorous modeling.

 




Fans of Hanfu like to call each other "tongpao", which has both a sense of group identity and a social meaning. "Hanfu is different from fashion and has very strong cultural attributes." Just like many people wear improved cheongsam to express their love for Chinese culture, wearing Hanfu is also an obvious and external emotional transmission. It is almost the norm in big cities in China for young people to wear Hanfu to parks or scenic spots.
