China has great etiquette, so it is called Xia, and it has the beauty of clothing and seal, so it is called Hua. Hanfu is the most beautiful cultural heritage of our great Chinese civilization. From Huangdi to the mid-17th century AD, Hanfu carried the fine traditions of our country for 5,000 years and was influenced by the charm of China. Now more and more people have joined the craze of Hanfu revival and chose to pick up the elegance of these five,000 years.
1. What is Hanfu?
The first thing you need to understand about Hanfu is that Hanfu is not Han Dynasty clothing , nor is it strange. It is wearing a glowing film studio outfit, but a unique costume of the Han people. It is the civilization of Huangdi, Yao and Shun hanging their clothes and governing the world through the late Ming Dynasty. Each dynasty transformed Hanfu and integrated the atmosphere and wisdom of the times.
Hanfu types mainly include quexu , straight-length , high-waist ru skirt , ru skirt, round neck robe , fuzi , zhuzi deep clothes, Xuanduan, etc. In the pre-Qin period, heroes competed for the world and a hundred schools of thought. It was not until 221 BC that Qin Yingzheng unified the world and began to have a little stability. The system of Zhou Saturday's crown was abolished, wearing mysterious clothes and regular clothes, and officials brought high mountain crowns, law crowns and martial arts crowns, and swearing in sash crowns, but law, Taoism, Confucianism, and metaphysics penetrated all levels, so Qin was an era of contradictory and openness. Clothes are also correspondingly monotonous. The robe is a typical style, with curved hems and straight hems, and most of them are large-collared and narrow-sleeved.
Men's waist tie hooks, and women's waist tie ribbons, mostly with cross-collar and right lapel. It has both the domineering spirit of the heroes in the early stage and the unique neatness in the later stage. As for the Han Dynasty, Hanfu mainly inherited the Qin system. By the second year of Yongping of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty, formal and complete regulations were found, including robes, robes, robes, and skirts, but the most widely circulated robes and curved straight skirts were still the straight skirts.
To the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the political stability, the economy was developed, the production and textile technology continued to improve, and the exchanges with overseas were increasing. There were Datang Empress Wu Zetian, and Li Zhi , Yu Xuanji, Xue Tao and many other female poets of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei. The folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were once open, and the status of women also improved. Therefore, the clothing gradually changed from the previous coarse cloth to Shu brocade silk and silk to appear round necklaces and robes.
During this period, the more bold and gorgeous chest-length skirt was also sought after by women, adding a more ethereal fairy spirit and setting off the gorgeous and wealthy spirit of the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, there were blouses, robes, jackets, mattresses, robes, and jackets.
ran Zhu Xi and other groups advocate Neo-Confucianism, which has brought the status of women to a low point, and has also imprisoned people's thoughts with sourness. The social atmosphere once again returned to restraint, and the clothing gradually became small and exquisite. The trend of double-breasted waist skirts and Song trousers was exquisite but elegant and beautiful. By the Ming Dynasty, the standing collar horse-faced jackets were particularly popular, and now, the standing collars in the Ming Dynasty mainly include a standing collar slanted shirt, a double-breasted jacket, and a boudoir door, showing the grandeur and majestic Ming Dynasty.
2. Which is more important, the authenticity or revival of Hanfu?
To this day, many people are interested in Hanfu and want to treat Hanfu as regular clothes, but they dare not, and they are timid. A large part of the reason is some self-righteous Hanfu bosses. I thought I had worn Hanfu for a few years than others and pointed at other people's Hanfu, saying that the Hanfu was wrong and it was a copycat. I had to force others to admit that it was a copycat. I was wrong and I promised to buy the next time. Then the big guys raised their heads and walked away like a defeated rooster, without seeing the kindness and thinking from the perspective of my Chinese etiquette.
We should understand that there are a large element in Hanfu that combines Confucian humility and Taoist moderation. Putting others in an embarrassing situation on a piece of clothing is contrary to the Chinese civilization carried by the clothes? Many people may just be fond of that dress, not everyone must wear a dress under the banner of revival of Hanfu and look for the banner of Chinese civilization. That is too heavy and too false.
Moreover, reviving Hanfu is more meaningful than satirizing a person wearing fake clothes. Even if he is wearing fake clothes, it is also Hanfu. He is also working hard on the road to reviving Hanfu, and he also sees the beauty of China.It is not to say that we should argue for counterfeit Hanfu, but to a large extent, we should think deeply about why counterfeit Hanfu stores are so rampant? One reason is that genuine Hanfu is too expensive and there is too much demand.
In fact, counterfeit stores are contrary to our Chinese tradition, but if the workmanship of the mountain and the regular layout materials are exactly the same, then should we think about whether the difference between 100 or 200 or 300 is really worth it? Is such a store deliberately making money for people's vanity or truly promoting Hanfu?
Of course, copycat Hanfu plagiarizes other people's copyrights, which ignores our traditional virtues of integrity and should not be ignored. Wearing a suit with a physique and a Hanfu with a personality, what kind of soul should we use to support this dress? Is it important to revival of Hanfu or to criticize those who wear counterfeit clothes? This is a question that all of us should think about. Don’t let these clothes with historical rhymes become a burden.
3. How to wear Hanfu?
There are quite a lot of posts about Hanfu, but there will always be one or two people commenting below that he has his hair disguised, which is not in line with the rules, and he is not wearing shoes, etc. I want to say that we are promoting Hanfu culture and reviving Hanfu, not retro. The times are progressing, and we cannot retreat instead.
In the premise of economic, material and transportation development, our Hanfu must adapt to today's fast-paced life. Appropriate improvement is conducive to the development of Hanfu. Like Xu Jiao, what we need to do is to let more people know Hanfu, and even promote Hanfu internationally like Xu Jiao.
does not mean that you must wear a tilted head, or tie a draped cloud bun, and brush a brow. If that were the case, you would have been exhausted and paralyzed in 24 hours this day, going to and from work and going to and from school. When we wear Hanfu, we should see the cultural heritage exuded by Hanfu and improve our personality, rather than be entangled in this complicated and unsuitable combination in today's society.
We should let Hanfu progress with the times, exert its charm, and let everyone who sees it know that this is Hanfu, not Korean and Korean servers.
I hope everyone can fall in love with Hanfu and see the historical background it contains. We wear a piece of clothing, but we appreciate the etiquette and culture hidden under the clothes.
For thousands of years, I have been filled with love. I hope that everyone wearing Hanfu can be free of burden. I hope that this beautiful clothing built by etiquette and culture can play its true value. I hope that everyone can know Hanfu and experience the warmth it contains. I will never regret entering China in this life, and I will also join the flower planting family in the next life.
