How many kinds of skirts did ancient women usually have? Aren't you afraid of getting dirty in a skirt?

From some film and television dramas about ancient costumes shot in China at present, we can often see a scene in which ancient women like to wear very elegant long skirts. In ancient times, the basic hardware facilities were not perfect, so it was impossible to spread and clean all the floors.

So these skirts are easy to get dirty when dragged on the ground, which is extremely inconvenient. In ancient times, there was a lot of dust on the road. Wearing such a long skirt in the street was originally intended to be a free sanitation worker sweeping the street.

So in that case, why did ancient women wear such long skirts? Aren't they afraid of getting dirty? In fact, long skirts were not the main costumes of ancient women. Most of these clothes are just some clothes worn in a specific period. They don't wear them often, but it's just an illusion that we often wear them.

Classification of ancient women's long skirts.

We can be roughly divided into two categories according to the period, one is before the Tang Dynasty, and the other is after the Tang Dynasty.

Before the Tang Dynasty, this kind of skirt had a very fairy name? Fairy dress? . In the film and television dramas about the theme of the Han Dynasty, what are the costumes worn by princesses and queens? Fairy dress? .

According to folk historical records, Zhao, queen of the Western Han Dynasty, especially likes to dance in skirts. Later, when she was dancing, a strong wind suddenly blew. At this time, the maid-in-waiting was anxious and helped to pull the queen's skirt to prevent it from being blown up.

After all the fuss, the queen's skirt pulled out many wrinkles. Therefore, these folds look more fairy-like in the wind, so people call this dress worn by Queen Zhao Yan Fei? Fairy dress? .

Is it because the fairy is gone that Xinning forgot? "The emperor made a bad dress. The wind stops the clothes from wrinkling. " Is she lucky in the palace, or is her skirt wrinkled? Fairy women's clothing ".

In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, with the continuous integration of the Central Plains culture and the western regions culture, people's clothing has also undergone great changes. Fairy dress? Although it is beautiful, it also has many characteristics, such as being too long. And cleaning is more troublesome.

So later, after the integration of western culture, the Sui and Tang Dynasties appeared? Pomegranate skirt? .

Pomegranate skirt? The skirt is characterized by retaining the soft and slender feeling of the fairy skirt before, but the tail Toby of the skirt is shorter. And that color also become relatively bright. The whole is still very beautiful, and it has become more refined. So it was sought after by women in the Tang Dynasty at that time. For example, in the film and television works about Yang Guifei, most actors wear them? Pomegranate skirt? .

Is it? Fairy dress? Or? Pomegranate skirt? Its popularity is very low.

But? Fairy dress? And then what? Pomegranate skirt? It's just a dress.

These things will only be worn on certain occasions, and these two clothes are not affordable for everyone. For example, to wear fairy women's clothes, it is definitely not enough to have a beautiful skirt, but also to wear all kinds of gold and silver jewelry to wear a bejeweled fairy sense.

The productivity of ancient society was very low, so it was difficult for ordinary people to save enough cloth to make clothes, let alone have extra cloth to dress up a skirt with such low practicality.

So, ordinary people don't have it? Fairy dress? Only wealthy businessmen and nobles have this kind of clothes. There are also some folk performing groups, but the quality and quality are slightly inferior.

And then what? Fairy dress? It's particularly troublesome to wear. It has no advantages except its beautiful appearance. In order to prevent tripping when walking, people even have to help lift it.

In short, "fairy women's clothes" are usually worn only once in a certain occasion, such as a performance or a party, but if it is a princess or a queen, that is another matter. After all, their living conditions are better and they can wear them every day.

Tang dynasty? Pomegranate skirt? Relative popularity? Fairy dress? Generally speaking, it's a little higher. First of all, the social productivity of the Tang Dynasty was improved, and? Pomegranate skirt? Relative to a group? Fairy dress? Generally speaking, the production difficulty is still relatively low, and the requirements for materials and quality are also relatively low, so it is well-known among the people.

Especially in the service industry and the performing arts industry, women wear it? Pomegranate skirt? This is no longer a rare thing. For example, in Pipa Story, it is described that her art is envied by experts, and her beauty is envied by all major dancers? The silver comb inlaid with shells was broken by her rhythm, and the bloody skirt was stained with wine. ?

The bloody skirt is a pomegranate skirt.

But also reflected in many ancient poems? Pomegranate skirt? Like the popularity of the group? Pomegranate flowers burn all over the street, and all the branches fall. Thousands of families can't buy it, leaving a red skirt for their daughter.

But unfortunately, no matter what. Fairy dress? Pomegranate skirt? Or? A skirt? They are all wasted in the process of scraping clothes.

Universality and historicity? A skirt? (for civilian use only)

According to the existing historical data, A skirt? It was common in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At that time, women wore clothes called? Top and bottom? .

From the unearthed cultural relics and related historical documents, we know that? A skirt? That is, the upper part wears a coat about to the knee, and the lower part wears a skirt from the waist to the ankle, with a layer of pants inside. In costume dramas, the clothes worn by ordinary people and village women are mostly like this.

Especially in the TV series Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei fled south with many people, and the refugee women who fled south with Liu Bei all wore this kind of clothing, which is more in line with historical facts.

A skirt? Its characteristics are relatively convenient to wear and good windproof. ? A skirt? The historical development was also constantly improved until the Han Dynasty entered the group. A skirt? The jacket is getting shorter and shorter, and the skirt or trousers under the clothes become relatively exquisite from the knee to the waist, which is particularly convenient to wear and will not affect the daily work of ordinary people.

A skirt? The fabric used for manufacturing is relatively few and practical, so it has always been the main form of clothes at the grassroots level. At the same time, it is also the life clothes of the wives of princes and nobles. After all, no one can live in a big skirt, and it is not convenient to wear such a long skirt to the toilet for dinner.

A skirt? The history of "shaving hair" lasted until the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and the clothes were shaved only after the establishment of the Qing dynasty. A skirt? Was forcibly abolished, so? A skirt? Also withdrew from the historical stage of China. Some scholars believe that nowadays? Hanbok And the so-called South Korea? National costume? Do you mean China? A skirt? Is it created by a kind of clothing, or is it only carried by China? A skirt? .

abstract

Did we mention it above? A skirt? Because it is convenient for civilians to work, it is relatively short and naturally difficult to step on.

As for the other two kinds of skirts, because they are not universal, they are all worn by nobles. They usually travel with servants pulling skirts, so don't worry. And to say the least, they only wear them on certain occasions, which is not the case in daily life.
