Costumes of different dynasties

? Women's Clothing in Song Dynasty

The style of women's skirts in Song Dynasty is basically the same as that in Tang Dynasty. It's just that the skirt is not regular. You can use your right hand or your left hand, which may be influenced by ethnic minorities such as Qidan and Jurchen. The decoration on the car body is not complicated. In addition to silk, only a jade ring ornament is added to the ribbon worn in the middle of the waist. Its main function is to suppress the skirt so that it is not affected by the wind when walking or moving. The "Yuhuan Ribbon" mentioned in the history books is this kind of decoration.

Empress crown of Ming dynasty

The costume of the Empress of the Ming Dynasty, the phoenix crown, is a kind of ceremonial crown with barbed wire as the fetus, decorated with a small emerald phoenix and jewelry tassels. As early as the Qin and Han dynasties, it has become the prescribed clothing for the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager and Empress. There are two kinds of crowns in Ming dynasty, one is worn by empresses, and the crown is decorated with dragons besides phoenixes. The other is the colorful crown worn by ordinary women, which is not decorated with dragons and phoenixes, but only with beaded flowers, but also called rockhopper.

Liaojinyuan man clothing

Although Liao, Jin, Yuan and Jin belong to the braiding family, their braiding styles are different. Meng Gong's "The Tatar of Monks" describes the hairstyle of Mongolian men: "From Genghis Khan to the people of China, people shave their slopes. For example, children in China have three heads, and the cheeks are slightly longer. There are always small horns hanging on the shoulders on both sides. " Zheng Suonan's History of Mind is particularly detailed, saying: Master Tatar shaved his hair three times and braided it. The "Three Knights" shaved off a curved hair at the top, leaving the current hair hanging loosely after cutting it short, but analyzed the hair on both sides, tied it into two bun, hung it on the left and right shoulder coats, said "Don't be a wolf", and said that the bun was hung on the left and right because of four eyes and could not be taken care of by wolves. Or braid it and drag the back of the clothes straight. "Based on comprehensive records and reference to video materials, we can basically understand how to make this hairstyle: first cut it into two straight lines in the middle of the top of the head, then shave off all the hair at the back of the head, in front of it, or trim it into various shapes, so that it can naturally cover the forehead, then braid the hair on the left and right sides and hang it to the shoulders with a hair ring. In the Yuan Dynasty, men wore scarves and hats, and men wore hoes in their clothes. The shape of hoes was roughly the same as that of long-legged hoes in the Song Dynasty. Some soap merchants go to heaven with hoes. Generally speaking, men and women wear a hat similar to the headscarf of the Tang Dynasty, with two elbows and long feet hanging down from the back of the head in a figure of eight. Ordinary people like to tie towels, and there are many different ways to tie towels. In addition, Mongolian men wear a "corrugated hat" made of rattan, which has two styles of Fiona Fang, and the top is decorated with jewels. There are people wearing big hats. This picture shows a man wearing a corrugated hat and shaving his head in the Yuan Dynasty.

Official costume of Ming dynasty

Officials in the Ming Dynasty used to wear uniforms. This picture shows the supplementary services of officials and their work. Put on their jobs and hats, and put on robes with narrow sleeves. A "collar" is a high collar with a round brim. This kind of robe is the main clothing style of men in Ming Dynasty, which can be worn not only by bureaucrats but also by ordinary people, but with different colors. The collar clothes worn by ordinary people must avoid dark black, purple, green, willow yellow, turmeric and bright yellow, while others such as blue and ochre are not restricted, commonly known as "variegated collar clothes". Twenty-five years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the court made new regulations on official uniforms. All civil and military officials, regardless of rank, must wear patches on the chest and back of the robe, birds for civil servants and animals for military officers to show the difference. This is the most distinctive costume in the official costume of the Ming Dynasty.

Wei Jin za fu

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the traditional deep clothing system was no longer adopted by men, but it was still worn by women. Compared with the Han dynasty, this kind of clothing is very different. Typically, clothes are decorated with "fiber rolls". The so-called "fiber" refers to the decorations fixed at the hem of clothes. Usually made of silk fabric, it is characterized by a triangle with a wide upper part and a sharp lower part, which is stacked up and down. The so-called "curly hair" refers to the ribbon protruding from the apron. The ribbon dragged on for a long time and walked like a swallow. In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, this kind of dress changed again, removing the ribbon that mopped the floor and lengthening the "dovetail" with sharp corners, so that the two were integrated.
