History of Japanese-style clothing:

The history of Japanese-style clothing can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty period. The Tang Dynasty was a prosperous period in Chinese history and an important time for cultural exchange between China and Japan. At that time, Japan sent a large number of envoys and foreign students to China, and they learned not only about Chinese culture and systems, but also about Chinese dress culture.

During the Tang Dynasty, the cultural exchanges between Chinese and Japanese costumes began to increase gradually. Some Japanese nobles and officials began to wear Chinese costumes, including robes, round-necked gowns, turban, and leather belts. These garments are considered typical Chinese clothing in China, but in Japan they are called "Tang clothing" or "Han style".

Over time, Japan developed its own dress culture. During the Heian period, changes began to appear in Japanese clothing, such as straight tops and bottoms, and more elaborate collars and cuffs. And in the Kamakura and Muromachi eras, due to the increase of wars and commercial exchanges, Japanese dress culture absorbed some western elements, such as tights, pants, hats and so on.
