The great evolution of costumes in past dynasties: from dew to cover, and then to dew ...

To understand the wedding dress, we must first understand the evolution of the dress. According to archaeological findings, the earliest clothing was10.9 million years ago, which originated from the Neanderthals in Zhoukoudian, Beijing. Animal skins can be sewn into simple clothes with bone needles, from being naked (not to mention leaves) to keeping out the cold, and it began to evolve into a clothing civilization.

In Xia and Shang Dynasties, the system of crown clothing was formed (different official ranks and different costumes), which was basically improved in Zhou Dynasty and incorporated into the ritual system in Spring and Autumn Period, which was a symbol of the power level in feudal society.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the thought of Yin-Yang and Five Elements penetrated into the colors of clothing. The state of Qin is dominated by black, and its basic shape is deep clothing (connected from top to bottom). In the Han dynasty, the clothing system was respected (aristocratic clothing, royal clothing, uniforms, etc. ), supplemented by the system of matching clothes to distinguish the official rank and solidify the grade difference.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the society was stable, the world was open, and the textile industry developed rapidly. Yellow became the emperor's special color, and men's wear was mainly robes, mixed with Hu style. Women's clothing is mainly skirts, long skirts, high waist to the chest or armpits.

The Great Evolution of Wedding Dresses in Past Dynasties: What happened to men and women?

China's wedding dress has evolved for thousands of years. Different dynasties respect different cultures, so the changes of wedding dresses are different.

Since the Zhou Dynasty, when there was the earliest wedding dress, the wedding system of the Zhou Dynasty advocated correctness and solemnity, and the wedding dress represented two colors of heaven and earth, namely black and red.

During the Qin dynasty, the theory of five elements prevailed at that time. Water, fire, wood, gold, earth and black, white, blue, red and yellow are combined to form the five virtues theory. Qin believes that Qin is like water and fire, so he advocates black, so the clothes and even flags of the Qin Dynasty are all black, and the natural wedding clothes are also black.

In the Han dynasty, because the Han dynasty inherited the Qin system, the wedding dress in the Han dynasty was also black, and in the later period, it was more colorful and appeared "twelve colors".

Jin advocated metaphysics, "governing by doing nothing, returning to nature and pursuing freshness and elegance", which led to the appearance of white as a wedding dress color.

It can be seen from history that black was the most expensive before the Jin Dynasty, and black was the main color of wedding clothes.

The key point is that the wedding dress in Sui and Tang Dynasties inherited the solemnity and sacredness of the previous dynasty and opened up the festive enthusiasm of later generations. It turns out that men's clothes are scarlet and women's clothes are turquoise, and the so-called "boys and girls" began to call from this time.

Why is the Sui and Tang Dynasties the focus? Isn't the focus of today the wedding dress of Song Dynasty that Sheng lived in? Because the Song Dynasty inherited the Tang system, the Song Dynasty was also "a man and a woman". In the play Know, a woman who got married in a green wedding dress truly restored the wedding characteristics at that time.

It is worth mentioning that the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty reached the peak of China's past dynasties, and both the art of calligraphy and painting and the porcelain of the civilized world were insurmountable peaks for future generations. Do the characters in the play "know or not" are exquisitely dressed and use exquisite instruments, which comply with the aesthetic standards at that time and restore the characteristics of life at that time.
