Hanfu of Han nationality

Let's start with the traditional chest wrap in China.

Belly covers can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. At present, it can be verified that it originated in 8 18 BC. It was only in the Ming and Qing Dynasties that the style changed.

For example, it is mentioned in the Spring and Autumn Zuozhuan that Chen Linggong, Kong Ning and Yixing's father, two courtiers, have been fooling around in places where they are talking about state affairs when they have relations with The Last Month Of Summer. This uniform is the predecessor of Chinese-style chest covering.

In addition, The Book of Songs, as an ancient poem alluding to Xuan Jiang, the wife of Wei, is ugly, and its virtue is not high, and it is said to be "embarrassing" and "insulting". Then, it means that the cool lower part is loose and scattered (slightly bare chest and shirtless), which means that underwear such as Chinese-style chest covering is not easy to wear (see Zhu, Shi Kao, etc. )

Besides Hanfu, as for Hanfu, the history of our country can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou Dynasties in summer, and even as far as Zhou Fu is concerned, it is even older than Hanfu. Therefore, there is no need to wear specific costumes in order to remember a dynasty, that is, the narrow concept of Hanfu.

But Hanfu in a broad sense refers to a standard of dress etiquette, or it can be called a requirement. For example, Ceng Gongliang in Song Dynasty once mentioned in the General Theory of Wu Jing that Huizhou, founded by Lu Ye Abaoji, the ancestor of Liao Dynasty, once had captured Song people as its population, and these people were "covered in Hanfu". The original text is as follows:

"Huizhou, built by Paul machine, is in the land of Xianbei. In Song Dynasty, Jingdezhen and Qidan invaded Hebei at the beginning, and Deqing army surrendered, captured the people here and lived in the city. The cities from the lowest to the smallest are two miles away. There is a washe granary in the city, and there are many Hanfu people. "

It can be seen that Hanfu is not only the Han Dynasty here, but as an external dress etiquette standard, which can be applied to Han people, Tang people, Song people, Ming people and so on in various dynasties.

Small summary

The meaning of the "standards and requirements" of the generalized Hanfu mentioned above has been revealed and emphasized today. At the same time, Hanfu itself has indeed become a comprehensive representative covering the clothing elements of various dynasties in history, not just the clothing of the Han Dynasty.

So in terms of formal self-esteem, it may not be the most important, and everyone will have different views on it. But wearing it or not is an ambiguous choice. For example, compared with some people, in my opinion, everything is powerful in direct proportion to mental position.

However, it must be emphasized that we must wear Hanfu well, because "if we are not careful, disaster will come from our mouths." Wearing clothes but not wearing them well is to make yourself uncomfortable. At the same time, after the meaning of Hanfu has been expanded, as a form of self-esteem, improper dress means disrespect for yourself, not just physical discomfort.
