What is the reason for the emergence of kimono in Japan?

1. Kimono is the national costume of Japan, which was developed from Hanfu in China, so it is called "Wufu" and "Tangyi" in Japan. Kimono is the name of Wufu in the west, and now the Japanese have accepted this name, but many shops selling kimonos still write "Wufu". Before the edo period, the word "bath" of kimono meant "hot water", and people called kimono "bathrobe" at that time. Curtains refer to single clothes, that is, clothes worn alone. The ancient bathrooms were basically steam-type, which is very similar to the sauna now. In order to avoid being scalded by walls and columns, people wear soup curtains to take a bath. Tang Weizi, known as "kimono", began in the Edo period. Later, people gradually changed the form of bathing. When taking a bath, they no longer wear clothes, but soak in hot water. As a result, kimono became a simple dress to wear after bathing, and it continues to this day as a dress that reflects personal summer leisure interests. In addition, in the backstage of kabuki and other dramas, many actors rest in kimonos, and they don't put on their costumes until the moment before their turn to appear, completing the transformation of their personal roles and performing. 2. Kimono is a traditional costume of the Japanese nation, which was formed on the basis of China's costume in the Tang Dynasty through the evolution of 1000 years. The Japanese vividly expressed their feelings about art with kimonos. There are many kinds of kimonos, regardless of color, texture and style, which have undergone thousands of years of changes. Not only are there obvious differences between men and women (men's kimonos are single color, black, few styles, thin belts, simple accessories and easy to wear; Women's kimonos have rich colors, wide belts, various types and styles, and many accessories), and according to different occasions and times, people will wear different kimonos to show caution (women's kimonos include wedding kimonos, adult kimonos, evening ceremony kimonos, banquet ceremony kimonos and general dresses). Two points are for reference screening.
