A little knowledge of ancient clothes;

In ancient times, underwear was called Zhong Yi. China underwear has a long history, and the earliest historical data can be traced back to the Han Dynasty.

Among them, women's underwear is also called hugging abdomen, heart-shaped, two crotch, tube top, Chinese-style chest covering and so on. In the Tang Dynasty, women's common dress of "wearing skirts and half-revealing breasts" was only a brief moment in history. From ancient times to the present, underwear has always contained women's secrets, which outsiders absolutely don't know.

In ancient books, women whose underwear is exposed are either Huan women or Sun Erniang in Liangshan. The mentality of the ancients towards underwear was taboo.

The blouse worn by women, that is, the upper pocket in the belly pocket, is named because it can't easily express the nature of people's clothes.

In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, women's close-fitting clothes were mainly fastened, which were generally worn by maids-in-waiting, emphasizing embroidery decoration.

It is a kind of "waist underpants" and the predecessor of "Chinese-style chest covering". Started in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was the title of underwear in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Its structural feature is to tighten the chest to prevent cold, which is used to restrain and fix the chest. Also known as Dou Du, square or diamond blocks are common, which can be divided into plain colors and embroidery. There are ropes at the left and right corners, tied at the back, with or without bags.

When every ancient woman sews underwear, she will pour thousands of feelings: embroidered pomegranates for children, embroidered peonies for money, embroidered beasts to ward off evil spirits, embroidered grass for her sweetheart ... life ideals and personal desires that can not be reflected in the coat at all, but can be fully described and displayed in underwear.
