Enumerating the millennia-old tradition of Ruqun in Hanfu
"When I sit, my belt lingers in the grass, and when I walk, my skirt sweeps away plum blossoms." "My skirt drags six pictures of the water of the Xiangjiang River, and a section of Wushan clouds towers over my temples."... These beautiful poems cannot describe the softness and beauty of Chinese daughters. Among them, the skirts they wear perfectly set off their elegant and quiet temperament. So, what kind of charm does Chinese clothing, the skirt in the Hanfu system, have that can last through thousands of years and become a classic style in our Chinese history? This article counts the underskirts of each dynasty, trying to sort out the relatively stable shapes among them, and see what the traditional "tong" is in our Hanfu system, and what the "zong" is that never changes away from its origin. 1. Pre-Qin Period "Ruqun" and "clothes" are relatively similar, but there are still differences between them and need to be discussed separately. Of course, this difference does not mean that they correspond to "women's clothing" and "men's clothing" respectively, but refers to the differences in tailoring and cultural connotation. To make a simple analogy, "skirt" and "clothes" are like two branches…- 0

Introduction to Hanfu Styles
[Quju] is a style of Hanfu. In ancient times, there were twelve pieces of deep clothing, all with the broad head at the bottom and the narrow head at the top, commonly known as gussets. The ones that follow the gussets and hook the sides are called "curved gussets". Quju [Quju deep clothing] is a kind of Hanfu deep clothing, which was a common dress in the Qin and Han Dynasties. Shenyi can be divided into straight and curved trains according to whether the train is wrapped around the skirt or not. The skirt of the deep-curved garment is extended at the back, and the lengthened skirt forms a triangle, which passes through the back and then wraps around the front. A large belt is then tied around the waist to cover the ends of the triangular pleat. Dark clothes with curved trains were more popular from the pre-Qin to Han dynasties when the hakama was not invented. Can be worn by both men and women. Quju has been retained as women's clothing for a relatively long time. From the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, women's deep attire declined, the rut skirt began…- 0

The Evolution of Chinese Traditional Clothing Aesthetics Through Hanfu
When it comes to Chinese classical style clothing aesthetics, cheongsam and Tang suit have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but the public knows very little about Hanfu. From confusion about the concept of "Hanfu" to the name of the structure of Hanfu, there is a lack of understanding, not to mention the behind-the-scenes cultural connotation. The so-called "Hanfu" does not refer to the costumes of the Han Dynasty, but the traditional costumes of the Han nation, also known as Han clothes, Han costumes and Chinese costumes. The predecessor of the Han Dynasty was the Huaxia ethnic group. The entire traditional costumes of the Han ethnic group can be traced back to the Zhou Dynasty. They developed through the Qin Dynasty and gradually matured in the Han Dynasty. Cai Yong said in "Doctrine": "The emperor always obeys, and the Han obeys Qin." At the beginning of the new year, Chengdu Tianfu Ancient Town officially opened the "National Style Year" with thousands of people parading in Hanfu - wearing Chinese clothes, visiting the ancient town, touring the Bamboo Sea, and appreciating the national trend. Until a few years ago, wearing Hanfu for travel or gatherings was almost…- 0

Stunning Hanfu is a Beautiful Memory of the Present Day
The moment I woke up in the morning, listening to the sound of reading aloud in the kindergarten opposite, and seeing the light passing through the window and scattering on the windowsill, I suddenly felt a sense of happiness in my heart. A morning filled with poetry came like this. Some people pursue happiness all their lives, but never feel happiness; some people never pursue happiness deliberately, but taste happiness all the time. #向春新creation contest# In fact, in the final analysis, happiness is nothing more than the accumulation of beautiful things in life under the times. Walking among the mountains and rivers, listening to the gurgling streams, the singing of birds, a grain of sand, a flower, a cup of tea, coarse rice and cloth, there is beauty in everything.
