The Region and Difference of Tibetan Costume Culture

The Tibetan dress is probably the longest-existing of China's national costumes, and the indigenous inhabitants of the Tibetan Plateau already knew about aesthetics four or five thousand years ago. Through these aesthetic sense, they also created Juan, beads and so on. For China's dress culture to lay a strong foundation.

So, here with me to see the Tibetan culture it!

The Tibetan Plateau, this is located at the top of the earth's high heavens and thick soil nourished the hard-working and intelligent Tibetan people, they created with the history of the nation as old, as unique, as brilliant culture. Tibetan culture can be said to be a Chinese national culture of a wonder, as an important part of the Tibetan culture of Tibetan dress culture also has a long history, colorful, unique charm.

The most basic features of Tibetan costumes are fat waist, long sleeves, big lapel, right overlap, long skirt, long boots, braided hair, gold, silver, beads and jade ornaments. Due to the long-term closed existence, in general, the development of Tibetan costumes has little vertical difference, and its tone changes are also small. The form and texture of Tibetan costumes depend to a greater extent on the ecological environment in which the Tibetan people live and the production and life style formed on this basis, therefore, the regional characteristics of Tibetan costumes are obvious.

Lhasa as the center of the region's farmers usually wear white round-collar right-over-overlapping serge robe, collar, cuffs, gown edges set red, yellow, blue with a cross pattern of lace, robes slightly longer than the height of the person, wearing a rope will be a robe folded short tied to the waist, so that the robe just above the knee, the waist to form a pocket in order to load the daily necessities, out of the house, the robe at night when the quilt.

Lhasa for the center of the region town Tibetan clothing and farmers have some differences, especially women dressed. In summer, Lhasa women wear sleeveless long dresses, color, fabric choice is completely different from the herdsmen and farmers. Lhasa people like to use the texture of the better satin, beige and other fabrics to do Tibetan clothing, preferring to choose plain, elegant colors, and farmers and herdsmen love the big red and green strong contrast color is just the opposite. In recent years, the townspeople with suits more and more, even the farmers in the suburbs of Lhasa to wear traditional Tibetan clothing is also less and less, Chinese clothes, Tibetan clothes, suits mixed phenomenon is common.

The herdsmen in the northern Tibetan pastoral areas wear leather robes almost all year round. Leather robe light face outward, front, back, cuffs with colored thread sewing out large patterns. General men's leather robes handle more simple, women's Tibetan robes are more complex, to use many wide ribbon trim, side by side decorated in the back, black, red, green, purple and other colors, the number of most of the five to seven, but also some of the leather decorated with full. Women in northern Tibet are also accustomed to hair braided into countless pigtails, because of the cold in northern Tibet, people a year and a half are also difficult to wash and comb their hair a few times, and they will also be pine otoliths, agate, coral, amber, etc. Directly through the strings fixed in the braid, which is difficult to see in the agricultural areas and towns.

The most typical feature of Kobo clothing in the Southeast is that both men and women wear "Gu Huo", that is, wide sleeveless robes. Men's "Gu Xiu" from the waist tie, the hemline is not over the knee, women's "Gu Xiu" but down to the feet. Most of the "Gu Xiu" is made of serge, but also made of fur. Gongbu men are wearing hats, especially like to wear a kind from the south of the mountain Sangang Qu Lin passed on with colorful satin for the decoration of the Sanglin hat. Work cloth people's boots are also very elaborate, there are "that knife", "day bureau" two kinds, men and women are wearing. "That knife" divided into upper, middle and lower three levels, "Day Bureau" boots are festivals and ceremonies to wear.

In short, due to the natural conditions, different modes of production, the Tibetan dress colorful and varied, too many to mention. Some areas, such as counties and counties, townships and townships have a big difference. At present, the type of dress has been found to have 200 of China's top ethnic minorities.
