What is the relationship between Mongolian robes and the development of Mongolians?

The appearance of Mongolian robes is closely related to the historical development of ancient Mongolians and grassland living habits. Long-term Northern Expedition and nomadic migration enabled Mongolians to establish extensive contacts with the northern nationalities and the Han nationality in the Central Plains very early, and textiles were introduced earlier. Therefore, Mongolians like to wear robes all year round, double robes in spring and autumn, single robes in summer and fur robes and cotton robes in winter. The robes that grassland herders often wear in a year are made of raw sheepskin sewn with yogurt and fur, which can protect their knees from cold in winter and prevent mosquito bites and sun exposure in summer. Walking can be used as clothes, lying can be used as a quilt. Mongolians in Ordos and other places also like to wear vests of different lengths on their robes.

On the grassland, men, women and children like to wear robes all year round, which is the unique robe of Mongols. The robe is wide and has a belt, and the style and color vary according to gender. Men's dresses are generally fat, while women's dresses are tight to show women's slim and fit figure. Its style and color vary from place to place and from person to person, slightly different. Generally, Mongolian robes are characterized by wide sleeves, high collar and right slit, and the lower end of most areas is not slit. The hem, cuffs and neckline of robes are mostly decorated with satin lace, "rolled intestines" and "rolled clouds" or fur such as tigers, leopards, otters and minks. It is not only beautiful and generous, but also has good practical functions. Generally, the Mongolian robes worn by women are narrower than those worn by men, mainly in red, pink, green and sky blue. On festivals, they also wear headdresses woven with agate, pearls, corals, precious stones, gold, silver and jade. Men prefer to wear brown and blue Mongolian robes.
