The evolution of cloth from ancient times to modern times

In the Western Zhou Dynasty, the hierarchical system was gradually established, and the Zhou Dynasty set up the official positions of "Si Fu" and "Inner Si Fu" to take charge of the royal costumes. According to the literature records and the analysis of unearthed cultural relics, China's crown service system was initially established in the Xia and Shang Dynasties, and was perfected in the Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. In order to show honor and dignity, royal officials and ministers should wear their crowns in an orderly manner and adopt different forms, colors and patterns on different ceremonial occasions. The most famous one is the twelve chapters of costumes contained in the Book of Art: "Painting the sun, moon, stars, mountains, dragons and insects, embroidering Zong Yi, algae, fire, pink rice, flounder and glutinous rice, all in colors." Chapter twelve tattoos became the service system of emperors' dresses in past dynasties, and continued until the abdication of the Qing emperor and the restoration of Yuan Shikai as emperor. From the anthropomorphic cultural relics unearthed in the Zhou Dynasty, it can be seen that although the clothing decoration is complex and simple, it is clear from top to bottom, which has laid the basic shape of China clothing.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period (770 ~ 22 BC1), weaving and embroidery technology made great progress, which made the clothing materials more and more refined and the variety names more and more varied. Brocade in Xiangyi, Henan, ice dance, romance and embroidery in Qilu, Shandong are popular all over the country. The spread of technology makes a variety of exquisite clothes stand out. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, not only the princes themselves were luxuriantly dressed, but even the courtiers Ke Qing wore pearls and jade around their waists, and clothes, crowns and shoes were very expensive. The ancients wore jade, which was divided into honour and inferiority, and gave it a symbol of personality. As far as influence is concerned, people in the upper class, both men and women, should wear several pieces or groups of exquisite carved Yu Pei. The sword was a new weapon at that time. In order to show courage and self-defense, nobles must wear swords inlaid with gold and jade. Waist belts are also popular with various hooks, which compete with each other. Men's and women's hats are more eye-catching, with delicate veils as thin as cicadas and precious pearls and jade; Some are shaped like cups. Shoes, mostly made of small deerskin, or woven with silk thread and fine grass; In winter, fur coats are extremely thick, and white fox fur is worth thousands of dollars. Women like to make the front of the cuffs with fur, and thin and gorgeous gloves with half exposed fingers, which are extremely beautiful. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the clothes of the upper class were broad and the clothes of the lower class were narrow. Deep clothes have the meaning of hiding the body. They are the casual clothes of domestic literati and the dresses of Shu Ren people. They are unisex and may have been formed at the turn of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The deep coat combines the previously independent coat and skirt into one, but keeps the line that divides into two, which is not sewn up and down, and the width is not wide. The most ingenious design is to embed a rectangular fabric at the junction of waist seam and sleeve seam of two armpits, which can make the plane cut three-dimensionally, perfectly represent the human body shape, and the sleeves also have greater elbow extension function. According to records, there are four different names for deep clothes: deep clothes, long clothes, linen clothes and medium clothes. From the unearthed objects, it can be seen that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, many clothes were widely used, even attached to clothes, and some of them could be regarded as variants of deep clothes. In 307 BC, King Wuling of Zhao issued the order of Khufu to promote Khufu's riding and shooting. Khufu refers to the costume of "Hu Ren" at that time, which is quite different from Dai Bo who took off his coat in the Central Plains. It is characterized by knee-length clothes, a fruit belt around the waist, hooks and boots, which is convenient for riding and shooting activities. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, clothing styles were unprecedentedly rich and varied, including deep clothes and Hu clothes. Musicians wear hoods, dancers have sleeves several feet long, and some people often wear horns or magpie tails, long small sleeve dresses and diagonal skirts. These are all related to the colorful social life.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties (2265438 BC+0 ~ 220 AD), the clothing was richer in material than during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the deep clothing also got new development. Especially in the Han dynasty, with the establishment of the clothing system, the distinction between official ranks and grades of clothing was more strict. Clothing fabrics in Qin and Han dynasties are still brilliant. Embroidery patterns are mostly mountain clouds, birds and animals or vines. Brocade has various complicated geometric diamond patterns, and the whole pattern is woven with words. In the third year of Jian Yuan in the Western Han Dynasty (BC 138) and the fourth year of Yuan Shou in the Western Han Dynasty (BC 1 19), Zhang Qian was ordered to go to the Western Regions twice, which opened the land passage between China and western countries. Throughout the Wei, Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties, thousands of silks were exported continuously, which was called the "Silk Road" in history. As a result, China clothing culture spread to the world. Since the Qin and Han dynasties, there have been some developments and changes in deep clothing. Judging from the upper class in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the general cut robes were institutionalized. There is not much difference between the clothing system in Qin Dynasty and the Warring States Period, which ensures that China's clothing keeps the basic form of deep clothing. Men's and women's clothing in the Western Han Dynasty still followed the form of deep clothes. Whether it is a single product or a cotton product, most of the tops and skirts are cut and stitched together, and the upper and lower parts are still not stitched or stitched; There are Hanfu and underwear in the coat, and their leaders are exposed together to become a rigid suit. Wear tight pants and keep the style of "boasting clothes and big skirts". The first step is to wear different shoes. Belt. In the Qin dynasty, clothes were black. In the Han Dynasty, there was a clothing system. The history books list more than 20 kinds of dresses, court clothes and uniforms of emperors and courtiers. The grade difference in clothing is very obvious. The main manifestations are as follows: ① On the basis of inheriting the old system, the crown service has developed into a basic symbol to distinguish grades; (2) The matching system was established as a symbol to distinguish official ranks.

Clothing in the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties (220 ~ 589) During the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, the grade clothing changed and the national clothing merged greatly. The crown hat has been replaced by towels used by scholars, such as horn towels, water chestnut towels, purple nylon towels, white nylon towels and so on. Wei Chu and Cao Wen have formulated a nine-product official system, which takes purple, red and green as the difference of nine products. Since then, this system has been used in successive dynasties until the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. In the Jin Dynasty, besides towels, men with official positions also wore small crowns, and the lacquer sarong crowns with gauze caps on them were originally made by warriors of the Han Dynasty and passed down from generation to generation, not only for male officials, but also for the people and men and women. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, northern minorities entered the Central Plains, people lived in different places, and political, economic and cultural customs infiltrated each other, forming a situation of great integration, and costumes also changed and developed. The folds of northern national shorts have gradually become the mainstream, and both men and women can wear them, regardless of grade. Women's clothing is "frugal and rich". From the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the period of Qi and Liang Dynasties, dresses were skirts, which originated in the Han Dynasty. In the Jin dynasty, it had the characteristics of short coat and wide skirt. There was a time when full-toe shoes and high-toothed shoes (a kind of lacquer-painted clogs) were popular. On the other hand, influenced by the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, ethnic minorities wear Hanfu. In the 18th year of Taihe (494), after Xianbei Northern Wei moved its capital to Luoyang, Emperor Xiaowen of Wei promoted the policy of sinicization, changed Tuoba as his surname, and led hundreds of officials to wear Han and Wei costumes. It turns out that Xianbei people are wearing small sleeve clothes with collars. This reform of the old customs, called "filial piety reform", has enabled the old system of crown clothing to continue since the Qin and Han Dynasties and promoted the development of China's clothing culture.

Clothing in the Sui and Tang Dynasties (58 1 ~ 907) During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, China was divided and unified, and its economy and culture were prosperous. The development of clothing presents an unprecedented brilliant scene in materials and styles. Colorful brocade is a kind of silk woven with various colors and patterns, which is often used as half-arm and collar clothing. Gong Jin, in particular, has the patterns of pheasant, fighting sheep, phoenix and swimming scales, with gorgeous chapter colors. Embroidery includes five-color embroidery and gold and silver thread embroidery. Printing and dyeing patterns can be divided into multicolor overprint dyeing and monochromatic dyeing. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the main characteristics of men's crown clothing were that the upper layer wore robes, the officials wore hoes, and the people wore short shirts. Until the Five Dynasties, there was little change. Officials in Tian Zi and Guanbai used colors to distinguish grades, and patterns to indicate official ranks. Women's clothing in Sui and Tang Dynasties was full of fashion flavor, which often developed from palace women's clothing to folk, and was imitated in succession, and was often influenced by northwest nationalities. The most fashionable women's dress in Sui and Tang Dynasties was short skirt, that is, long skirt with short coat, and the waist of the skirt was tied with silk ribbon, almost reaching the armpit. Women in Sui and Tang Dynasties were well dressed. The "half-arm" handed down from the court has double-breasted pullovers, lapels or collarless styles. The sleeves are elbow-length and waist-length, and a small belt is tied as a chest. Because the neckline is very wide, the upper chest is exposed when wearing it. The half arm lasted for a long time, and then the man wore it. At that time, a long scarf was also popular, which was made of tulle and had flowers painted with silver flowers or gold and silver powder. One end is fixed on the chest strap of the half arm, then put on the shoulder and wrapped around the arm, so it is called silk. Women's hair accessories in Tang Dynasty are various, each with its own name. Women's shoes are generally flower shoes, mostly made of splendid fabrics, colored silks and leather. Tang people are good at integrating northwest minorities with foreign cultures such as Tianzhu and Persia. During the Tang Dynasty from Zhenguan to Kaiyuan, new Hu clothes were very popular.

The costumes in Song, Liao, Xia and Jin Dynasties (947 ~ 1368) basically retained the style of Han costumes in Song Dynasty, while the costumes in Liao, Xixia and Jin Dynasties had the characteristics of Qidan, Tangut, Jurchen and Mongolian respectively. National costumes are once again exchanged and integrated. There are three kinds of costumes in Song Dynasty: official clothes, casual clothes and old clothes. In the Song Dynasty, Luo was the main fabric of official clothes. Due to the old system of the Five Dynasties, the government gave the pro-expensive ministers robes in seven different colors every year. The colors of official uniforms follow the Tang system, with purple being more than three, Zhu being more than five, green being more than seven and green being more than nine. The style of official uniforms is roughly similar to the long-sleeved official uniforms in the late Tang Dynasty, but the first clothes (crowns and hats, etc.). ) It is already a flat-winged black silk hat, named Straight Foot, which has been customized. The official clothes of the Song Dynasty followed the system of wearing fish in the Tang Dynasty. Officials who are qualified to wear purple and scarlet official uniforms must tie a "fish bag" around their waist, which contains fish made of gold, silver and copper to distinguish official products. "Curved collar in the square" is also a feature of the imperial costume, that is, the ornaments under the circle are placed on the items of the imperial costume. In addition to official clothes and uniforms, the daily casual clothes of officials in Song Dynasty are mainly small sleeve round neck shirts and soft-winged hoes, which are still in Tang style, but their feet are replaced with casual shoes that are more convenient for daily life. The representative costumes of the old people in the Song Dynasty are wide-body robes and large-sleeved Dongpo towels. The robe was edged with dark cloth to keep the ancient style. Dongpo towel is a square tube-shaped towel, which was created by Su Dongpo, a great writer. In fact, it is the revival of ancient towels, which were often worn by old gentry in the Ming Dynasty. Folk first clothes were also very popular in Song Dynasty. Men are popular with hoes and scarves, while women are popular with crowns and hijabs. Women's hair style and corolla were the focus of people's pursuit of beauty at that time, which best reflected the changes of clothing in Song Dynasty. The crown of women in Tang and Five Dynasties has become more and more dangerous, and the crown of women in Song Dynasty has further developed and changed. Usually put a flower and bird comb on the bun, and there is no surprise. Liao, Xixia and Jin were regimes established by the Khitan, Tangut and Jurchen in ancient China, and their costumes reflected the development track of their respective national traditions in long-term cultural exchanges with the Han nationality. Tangut women wear Hu clothes with lapels and the neckline is beautifully embroidered. Khitan and jurchen usually wear long coats and boots with narrow sleeves and knees, which are suitable for hunting immediately; Women wear long gowns with narrow sleeves and collars, and they are all left-handed. Contrary to the Han people, the fishing piers they used to wear are widely popular in the mainland. Considering the reality of living together with the Han nationality, the Liao-Jin regime once set up the system of "Southern Officials", ruled the Han nationality in China together with the Han nationality, and adopted the old system of official uniforms in Tang and Song Dynasties for Han officials. In Liao dynasty, the embroidery patterns of flowers, birds and animals on silk official uniforms were used to distinguish official products, which affected the grade identification of official uniforms in Ming and Qing dynasties. In the Jin Dynasty, the rank was determined by the size of the flowers on the official clothes, and the lowest rank was sesame without grains or small diamond grains. The men's wear of Khitan and Jurchen is also adopted by Han people because it is easy to move. In the first year of Yanyou in Yuan Dynasty (13 14), considering the ancient and modern Mongolian and Chinese costume systems, uniform regulations were made on the colors of official and civilian costumes. In the Han dynasty, the official uniforms were mostly Tang-style round collars and hoes; Mongolian officials wear collared clothes and square corrugated hats; For the convenience of galloping at once, plaited coats (round neck tight sleeve robe, wide hem, plaited waist) and hats are the most popular among the middle and lower classes. In the Yuan Dynasty, various textiles appeared, such as Nashiya Gold, Mixed Gold Zigzag, Jindianzi, Douluojin, Sanling, Dasi, Suu, Nansi, Beisi, Hibiscus and Fanjin. During the Yuan Dynasty, there were 10 many times a year. At that time, thousands of officials wore high-grade dresses with the same color and style, decorated with gems and jewels, which was called high-quality sun clothes, which was rare in past dynasties. In the Ming dynasty, this kind of clothing was used as a police costume.

Clothing in Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368 ~1911) was dominated by traditional Han costumes in Ming Dynasty, and Manchu costumes were the mainstream in Qing Dynasty. The costumes of the upper and lower classes of the two generations have obvious grades. The official dress of the upper class is a symbol of power, which has always been valued by the ruling class. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, robes and yellow have been exclusively used by the royal family. Since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, purple is the most expensive. In the Ming Dynasty, because the emperor's surname was Zhu, Zhu was the positive color, and because the Analects of Confucius had "evil purple to take Zhu also", purple was abolished from official uniforms. The most distinctive feature is to use "tonic" to express the grade. The patch is a piece of silk about 40 ~ 50 cm square, embroidered with different patterns, and then sewn on the official clothes, one on the chest and one on the back. Civil servants use birds as a supplement, and military officers use animals, which are divided into nine categories. Usually, T-shirts are distinguished by the length of clothes and the size of sleeves, and the old ones are the most respected. The main first clothes of officials in Ming Dynasty are slightly different from those in Song and Yuan Dynasties. The emperor wore black gauze and folded towels, and the wings of his hat stood up from behind. The official robe wears lacquered yarn with spreading wings and often wears his duties. The wives and mothers of the banned officials also have red big sleeve dresses with different stripes and decorations and various summer shawls. In addition, high heels have been used by upper-class women, which are divided into high heels and high heels. In the Ming Dynasty, people's clothes were long and short, including shirts or skirts, which basically inherited the old tradition and had a very rich variety. In terms of dress color, civilian wives and daughters can only wear purple, green, pink and other colors to avoid mixing with official clothes; Working people are only allowed to use brown. Apart from the old hats that have been popular since the Tang and Song Dynasties, Zhu Yuanzhang personally formulated two kinds of hats, which were promulgated throughout the country and used by ordinary people. One is a square barrel-shaped black lacquer gauze cap, called a square nipple; One is a hemispherical hat composed of six pieces, called Liuhe unified hat, which means equality in all countries and unity in the world. The latter, commonly known as melon skin hat, is made of black velvet and satin. During the Qing dynasty, shaving and changing clothes were carried out by violent means, and men's clothes were unified according to Manchu customs. In the ninth year of Shunzhi (1652), the regulations on wearing colorful epaulettes were promulgated, abolishing the crown clothes with strong colors in China. In the Ming Dynasty, all men wore their hair in a bun and wore loose clothes, stockings and pumps. In the Qing dynasty, the hair was shaved into braids, and the braids hung behind the head, wearing thin horseshoe cufflinks and tight socks and deep boots. However, according to the law, official and folk costumes are completely different. The main variety of official uniforms in Qing dynasty is robes and mandarin jackets. A jacket is a coat added to a robe, named after it originated from riding a jacket. It is characterized by a slit at the front and back, and a blue chest (disc for the king of Prince Edward County). Buzi's bird and beast patterns and order are similar to those of the Ming Dynasty. The official hats of the Qing dynasty are completely different from those of previous dynasties. Military and political personnel above non-commissioned officers and officers wear weft hats that look like hats, which are divided into warm hats and cool hats according to winter and summer seasons. They were also dressed in "coats" of different colors and materials, and a bunch of peacock feathers were dragged behind their hats. Ling is called Hualing. There are "eyes" (round spots on feathers) on the senior ling, which can be divided into one eye, two eyes and three eyes. More eyes are more expensive, and only princes or ministers with outstanding achievements are rewarded. The emperor sometimes wears a yellow jacket to show his special affection. As far as the influence is concerned, mandarin jackets of other colors have gradually become popular among officials and gentry, and become ordinary costumes. Officials above grade four or five still hang beads of Buddha around their necks, which are made of all kinds of precious stones and fragrant wood, which constitutes another feature of official uniforms in the Qing Dynasty. The progress of silk weaving, embroidery, printing and dyeing and various manual occupations created conditions for the richness of clothing varieties in the Qing Dynasty. The development of women's wear in Qing dynasty, Han nationality and Manchu nationality was different. During Kang Yong period, Han women kept Ming style, while clothes and long skirts were popular in small sleeve. After finishing, the clothes are getting fatter and shorter, the cuffs are getting wider and wider, and with the cloud shoulders, the pattern renovation is endless; By the end of the Qing Dynasty, urban women had put on skirts and trousers, which were inlaid with lace and rolled teeth, and most expensive clothes were spent on them. Manchu women wear "flag clothes", comb the flag bun (commonly known as two ends) and wear "flowerpot bottom" flag shoes. As for the so-called cheongsam circulated in later generations, it has long been mainly used in the court and the royal family. In the late Qing dynasty, cheongsam was also imitated by the ladies of the Han nationality.

2. The transformation of China's clothing (modern and modern)

Throughout the ages, clothes have always been regarded as a necessity of life, something used to cover the body. But when you look at passers-by around you, you will find that clothes are moving towards the goal of meeting human needs, both in material and style. For example, in terms of clothing materials, it has developed from animal skins and wool to thin "really cool" and "chemical fiber". In terms of style, it has evolved from simple and practical to fashionable and light clothes. These changes often show the level of people's material life. In China, clothing more vividly outlines the changes in people's lives since the reform and opening up.

1949, New China was founded. At that time, farmers were all wearing shirts and trousers of Tang suit, while in the city, robes and cheongsam were the main clothes, and their clothes were simple.

People are born to love beauty. Everyone in every place, every dynasty and every era is no exception. However, when the new China was founded, the people's government received the devastated mess left by the Kuomintang. Years of war have caused many problems, such as shrinking production, people's livelihood hardship, unemployment and so on, and just happened to encounter floods. In this environment, China compatriots have too many problems to face. For example, if you want to work and control water, how can you ask yourself to have suitable clothes and shiny clothes?

Less than a few years after the founding of New China, people's clothes took on a new look. There are mainly blue-gray cadre clothes, Lenin clothes, white shirts and thin coats, which are also common. Although the style of clothes has changed, it is still conservative and simple. What is the meaning behind this change?

It turns out that in the 1950s, money was saved and copper coins were not wasted. At that time, people enthusiastically carried out "patriotic savings". At the same time, People's Republic of China (PRC) carried out land reform, and farmers generally owned their own land. In cities, because of the need of building a new society, employment opportunities have also increased, and people's quality of life is not rich, but it is guaranteed. From 65438 to 0953, in order to ban the speculative market and meet the basic needs of the people, the China government implemented the "unified purchase" and "unified marketing" plans. It means that the government will buy all the goods first and then distribute them to the people. People can exchange food stamps, gas stamps and other vouchers for daily necessities. For example, in the supply of cloth, with the cloth ticket, everyone can get more than 10 feet of cloth every year, and he can use these cloths to buy quilts and clothes. Since materials are limited, people cherish clothes. "The new three years, the old three years, sewing and mending for three years, and wearing sleeves at home for three years." Doesn't this sentence bring out the living standards of the people at that time? Compared with our generation of young people, this fashion trend will "bid farewell to the old and welcome the new" after the past, and then catch up with the next fashion. In contrast, there is a world of difference!

Economically, China began to implement the first five-year plan for developing the national economy (1953- 1957), which is referred to as the "First Five-Year Plan" for short. The first five-year plan is a plan centered on the development of heavy industry. 1957 The total output of workers and peasants increased to 67.8%, with an average annual growth rate of 8.2%. Grain output increased by 50.4 million tons. Economic growth has improved people's living standards. The national average consumption level reached 102 yuan, more than 30% higher than that of 76 yuan in 1952.

The economy has improved, people's lives have improved, and clothes have been paid attention to.

During the Great Leap Forward (1958- 1962), in order to "surpass Britain and catch up with the United States", people devoted themselves to the big steelmaking movement. Blast furnaces built by local methods can be seen everywhere in cities and rural areas, and every household re-refines all the iron articles in their homes. But all it produces is piles of scrap iron. Due to nationwide steelmaking and neglect of production, the grain output has dropped by 950,000 tons. The impetuous behavior of the Great Leap Forward led to the retrogression of economic development, and people's lives fell into hardship again. Misfortunes never come singly, and man-made disasters follow.

When the Cultural Revolution broke out, people became popular with revolutionary hairstyles and dark blue clothes, so they were called "blue ants". What is a "blue ant"? Just think about how Comrade China dressed in the movie, holding his fist, and putting his upper arm and lower arm at a 90-degree angle horizontally on his chest, and you will know. The clothing style of this period became one of the characteristics of China at that time. On the other hand, what does a similar style of clothing represent?

According to the situation at that time, the people's ideal is to pursue a productive life. They believe that everyone should have almost the same quality of life. At the same time, they strongly oppose capitalism and often criticize people who own private property, such as businessmen and capitalists. Therefore, factories and enterprises have become the battlefield of political criticism, but the production cause has become insignificant. Because of the economic depression, lack of materials, and most people are afraid that wealth will bring disaster, so everyone gives up high-end fancy clothes. However, people's love for beauty cannot be buried. Some girls will put on a flowered skirt and then put on those "blue ants" series tops to show a ray of color to satisfy their inner beauty-loving nature.

After the end of the Cultural Revolution, from the late 1970s to the early 1980s, many people's thoughts changed greatly, and they were no longer keen on class struggle. With the implementation of economic reform, people's lives have improved significantly. 1979, four special economic zones were established in China, namely, Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Shantou and Xiamen. The total import and export trade of China surged from 4 1952 to 563 billion yuan in 1980, an increase of 12.6 times. The national per capita consumption level increased from 1.952 in 76 yuan to 1.979 yuan. Excluding the factor of rising prices, it has actually increased by 85%, and the economy has come to an erection!

On the other hand, during the Cultural Revolution, the ideological ban was lifted, books, periodicals and movies were lifted, and CCTV opened several channels to let people know the world from a broad perspective, and people's dress style information began to be rich.

With the continuous enrichment of economic foundation and information, people's nature of loving beauty has been revealed again, and everyone has begun to love beauty and dare to be beautiful.

At the end of 1983, the state decided to cancel the system of "unified marketing" and "unified purchase", and cloth tickets were no longer used, and as many yards of cloth as you wanted to buy. The ideological shackles during the Cultural Revolution were also lifted. If you want to wear big flowers, red and green ones are fine. At that time, the fashion of clothes was those bell-bottoms that swept the street. There is also a hot suit, which is worn by both pushers and noodle sellers. The fashion show industry, which has been silent for many years, broke ground in Shanghai, and the fair was also one step at a time. 1986165438+1On October 22nd, China Fashion Research and Design Center publicly announced the fashion trend of 1987 in China in spring and summer. Look! The national economy is good and the people are well dressed.

1992 Deng Xiaoping, the chief architect of China's reform, once again called on China's economy to further open up and let some people get rich first. With the influx of foreign capital, ten thousand households began to be born. People's living standards have generally improved. Perhaps to restore self-confidence and dignity, when people have economic ability, they put on brand-name fashion. What's more noteworthy is that they like to expose brand-name trademarks in suits. 1993 Italian Panorama Magazine Comments: People used to call China a "blue ant", but now it is becoming a colorful China. Of course, China people like to be praised, but behind the changes in clothing, what is more encouraging is the prosperity of China society. From 1985 to 1994, excluding inflation, China's average annual per capita expenditure increased by 150%!

In recent years, China has played an important role in the world. Social stability and the improvement of people's quality of life make China people pursue the beauty of clothes, put on their own culture and personality, and pay attention to health and comfort at the same time. Clothes styles can be said to keep pace with the times. When you are in a big city in China, it is not difficult to be attracted by many popular light packs.
