Who invented the Chinese corset?

According to the historical records of China, its origin can be traced back to BC 18 18. "Zuo Zhuan" said: "With the father of Confucius, they all want to take their clothes and play in the DPRK. The clothes mentioned here are close-fitting clothes, or they may be later Chinese corsets. There is also a saying that Chinese-style chest covering was invented by Yang Guifei to cover up the trace of her affair with An Lushan. There is also a folk saying that Chinese-style chest covering originated in the Han Dynasty. Single women were afraid of being bullied by rude men, so they wrapped their chests in cloth and tied them behind their backs, which was called "corset".

After the Ming dynasty, women generally had the habit of using Chinese corsets, which were called "pockets" at that time, commonly known as chest wiping. It is made of two pieces cut obliquely, with a sharp top and a flat bottom. There are two styles of chest tube towels in Qing Dynasty. One is short and close-fitting, tied between the chest and abdomen, commonly known as "Chinese-style chest covering". The other is tied between the waist and abdomen, which is called "wiping the chest and abdomen". "Qing-Bill" records: "Wipe the chest, there is a small coat between the breasts. One person wipes the abdomen, also known as wiping the abdomen; Take the cloth of square feet as it, and tighten the chest to prevent the wind and cold, which is commonly known as Dou Du. Both men and women. "
