What are the basic styles and styles of Hanfu?

From the shape point of view, there are mainly three kinds: "top and bottom clothes" (ancient top refers to bottom skirt), "deep clothes" (top and bottom clothes are sewn together) and "skirt" (short clothes). Among them, the coronation under the coat is the most solemn and formal dress for emperors and officials; Robe clothes (deep clothes) are common clothes for officials and scholars, while skirts are popular among women. Ordinary working people generally wear short clothes and pants.

A, clothing system (coat is divided into two parts)

Cut the top and bottom clothes separately, put on the top and bottom clothes. The "clothes" in the next clothes are also skirts. The system of coat under coat is the oldest form in Hanfu system. The so-called "clothes" in Chinese come from this.

Second, the deep clothing system (sewing from top to bottom)

The deep coat system is that the top and the lower skirt are cut separately and connected into a whole at the waist, that is, the upper and lower skirts are connected together. In cutting, the top and the bottom skirt are cut separately, and then sewn together, and finally the clothes are still an integrated style. Shenfu can be worn by both men and women, that is, it can be used as formal clothes, daily wear, and leisure clothes for monarchs, officials and scholars when they live in Yanju (informal occasions).

Third, the robe system (upper and lower cutting system)

It is to cut the upper and lower layers of clothes with a piece of cloth, which is seamless and natural in the middle, which is obviously different from the upper and lower layers of clothes. There are many general tailoring systems, such as round neck robe, tunic, straight pleat, straight body, Taoist robe, robe, robe and so on.

Fourth, the skirt system (the evolution of the top)

That's a jacket. A skirt is not a skirt, but an upper skirt and a lower skirt, which is the general name of a suit. The essence of Yi skirt is still the system of skirt under clothes. The ancient skirt under the coat is often called yi skirt after the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. After the Han Dynasty, it was specially called women's Yi skirt: a short dress tied around the waist with a rope, with clothes inside and skirt outside.

Under the basic modeling of skirts, high waist skirts, half-arm skirts, double-breasted skirts and chest skirts have been derived from various dynasties and generations. These styles do not have too many etiquette rules, and are generally used in uniforms, so they are widely used.

Extended data:

"Hanfu" refers not to "costumes of the Han Dynasty" but to "national costumes of the Han nationality". Starting from the Yellow Emperor's "ruling the world by hanging down his clothes", China's national costume tradition lasted for more than 3,700 years. During this period, Hanfu has developed a variety of styles with the changes of the times, but its main shape, that is, the characteristics of "cross-collar and right collar, up and down", has never changed.

According to the definition of Hanfu revival, Hanfu refers to the main residential areas of the Chinese nation (also known as the Han nationality after the Han Dynasty) from the 2nd1century BC to the mid/7th century AD (late Ming and early Qing), which formed a unique Han nationality style and character through natural evolution.

Obviously different from the traditional clothing and decoration system of other nationalities; In other words, "traditional costumes of the Han nationality (Hanfu)" is an overall collection of a series of costumes with obvious unique styles, which evolved naturally from Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties to Ming Dynasty on the basis of the costumes worn by the "Huaxia-Han nationality" ethnic group.

Hanfu, as the "skin" of the Chinese nation, is deeply imprinted in all aspects of Chinese civilization, representing the gorgeous, elegant and broad temperament of this ancient nation.

Like ancient China, the basic form of Hanfu provided a standard for the eastern world. Today, the national costumes of many ethnic groups in China and East Asia, such as the costumes of some ethnic minorities in China, have been influenced by Hanfu. Korean hanbok and Japanese kimono are both directly developed from hanbok. Hanfu is not only the Hanfu of the Han nationality, but also the Hanfu of Asia and the world.
