Ancient Chinese Articles of Clothing

Ancient Chinese articles of clothing including Chinese various ancient times’ kinds of clothes and crowns, hats, shoes and socks and other clothing develop into a unique system in the world. Its structure and design changed gradually along with the development of social production ability and people’s life style. Through the research to the historical costumes, we could know previous dynasties character's style. When the appraisal related to cultural relic, clothing is also the important criterion to distinguish dynasties. The historical costumes preserved till today aren’t many; in research, besides material objects, personas in ancient times’ sculptures and drawings are often important references as well.

1. Later period of Paleolithic period

People once excavated the bone needle from Choukoution upper cave man's remained culture. To the Neolithic Age later period, the clothing design has had something different among people at different districts and nationalities. Take the hairstyle as the example, in the Dadi Bay culture there is the clipped falling hair, in the Ma family Kiln culture there is the knitted hair that hangs behind the head, in the Dawenkou culture there is the hairband which is made from pig bucktooth, in the Dragon Mountain culture there is the bone hair clasp which is used to braid hair, and the jade sculpture of human’s head which is found in ShenMuShiMao relic in Shanxi Dragon Mountain culture with the hair bun on the top of the head is possibly the reflection of braiding hair by using bone hair clasp. Therefore we can know that in the ancient times tying hair to a bun has been the characteristic of China race clothing.

2. Xia and Western Zhou Dynasty

There are no material objects of attires in Xia Shang and Western Zhou Dynasty saved till today. According to the jade and stone sculptures of people excavated from Anyang Hou-family Village grave and Fuhao grave, we could know the Shang Dynasty aristocrats put the cross collars

clothes on upper body, tie the big belt round waist, wear skirt below, and before the abdomen is the SHI (a piece of clothing to cover knees). But the number of materials reflecting figures in Western Zhou Dynasty is less. From the jade sculpture of people and the human shaped bronze peg from Luoyang, we could know the upper garment, under skirt, belt, and shi are still the basic components of aristocrat men's clothes. The upper garment is dyed in orthodox colors, the under skirts the secondary colors, and the shi is paid lots of attention.

3. Qin and Han Dynasty

Pottery figurines excavated from the pit of Terra-Cotta Warriors and Horses in The First Emperor of Qin’s Grave provides full illustrations for the Qin and Han Dynasty warrior's clothes. Though the lapel of their half long dress is shallow, it still belongs to shen-clothes. They wear long trousers below and leather belts with hooks round waist. This type of dress is still very popular in Western Zhou and trousers popularize among the whole society gradually. And Han Dynasty’s crown mainly belongs to clothing system and was the attribute of status, government position, and official rank. Low rank persons could only wear the kerchief instead of the crown. The crown is originally a hood added to the hair bun and doesn’t cover the entire top of the head while the kerchief looks more like a casual hat. They couldn’t be collocated casually, the civil officers have to wear a jinxian crown with a roof shaped kerchief and the military officers have to wear the military bian. The front section of the jinxian crown rises high and the posterior tilts. There are several liangs in front of the crown and we could identify the status of wearers according to the number of liang. What’s more, both the Up to the Heaven crown worn by the emperor and the Travel Far crown worn by marquises are developed from the jinxian crown through being decorated with arnaments. In the matter of distinguishing superior and inferior, jinxian crown works to some extent but the number of it would not exceed three. So in Han Dynasty people use shou—a kind of ribbon as the symbol of their official rank. The color, ways of weave, density and length of shou varies according to different ranks of officers. Women in Han Dynasty often comb their hair to back and roll it up to be a round bun hanging down which is called zhui bun. The shen clothes that they often wear not only twine whose lapels several times below but also are decorated with triangle stuffs and long ribbons on its surface.

4. Wei, Western Jin, and Northern and Southern Dynasty

Clothes in Wei and Western Jin inherit from Han system in a large degree. Dress with wrinkles is the unique fashion and people often wear pingjin kerchief which is called small crown at that times. During the period of Northern and Southern Dynasty, because the Northern Dynasty is under the occupation of Xianbei or the governors who have been Xianbei-lized, the Xianbei dress is in. A small number of Xianbei nationality men usually wear bian clothes with the circle or cross collar , long pants, boots , feather belts round waist and Xianbei hats with ribbons falling behind. After various nationalities live together with different nationalities for a long time, this kind of attire also popularizes in the Han nationality common people. On the other hand, certain rulers of Northern Wei Dynasty stemming from the political need, advocate sinicizing, therefore the emperors and civil and military officials' sacrifice clothing and court dress presente high officials Han Wei “impressive and dignified manner”.

5. Tang Dynasty

On the Tang Dynasty man from the emperor under to the male servant service, wears the casual cloth in the daily life,including Que gown with round collar, headwrap named Putou, leather strap and boots. Que gown is a vented long gown. Headwrap evolves from the Xianbei hat. It is a kerchief originally. When they wear the headwrap they put two angles front to wrap their hair bun and other two angles are tied up after the brain, while surplus angles fall down naturally. Headwrap's material uses black Zeng or Luo at first; later people make the bone with the copper and iron wire in the angle to support it. On Tang Dynasty's leather strap a narrow leather string is loaded at first to tie other things. And there are several square plate on the strap. According to the difference of official ranks, people use the jade, gold, rhinocero, silver, fine jade stone, blue iron and other material to manufacture leather strap separately, thus causes the leather strap also to become the symbol of difference official ranks. Moreover, “color clothes” which appears in Northern Zhou Dynasty has formed a system in Tang Dynasty and becomes hereafter a Chinese official's costume's big characteristic. The Tang Dynasty official from one to nine chief ministers of state takes the color purple, red and green, Qing as the grade of their official dress. The Tang Dynasty female attire mainly is composed of the skirt, shirt and ancient cappa called Pei. At this time they often hide shirt under skirt, therefore the skirt looks very long. Pei’s aother name is Peibo, like a long and thin trotcozy, and it is due to the influence of West Asia Buddhism that it becomes popular in the central plains. In early Tang Dynasty curl brim hat, turndown collar coat and other Hu Dress are also popular among female attire. But after Anshi Rebellion, this fad gradually rests.

6. Song Dynasty

The Song clothing follows Tang system roughly. At this time headwrap inside is supported by wooden bone, outside is covered with painted gauze can be put on and off freely. At this time, unfolded foot headwrap that emperor and senior officials wear stretches out its two feet to the both sides straight and can amount to several feet. Common difference at low status, servant and others then wear the non-foot headwrap. The Song woman also wears the skirt and shirt. At this time short shirts mostly are in the symmetrical-lapel style, covering the skirt. The skirt is narrow, multi wrinkles. In the Fuzhou yellow grave apart from the silk skirt, there are the split-crotch pants and the joint-crotch pants. Thus we can see the Song woman wears pants under skirts. What’s more, the foot-binding which originates in Five Dynasties has been gradually popular to the Northern Song Dynasty later period.

7. Yuan Dynasty

The round hat the Yuan Dynasty Mongolia men wear is called Boli, the square shape or the polygonal named corrugated hat whose popular name is Da hat. The gown of Yuan person is often added litzendraht lines on waist, below has the pleat and called the litzendraht lined jacket. Luxury clothes of senior official nobles is mainly made from NaShiShi (brocade weaved with golden strings). In the winter they often put on leather clothing with the turndown fur collar which is called Dahu. The Gugu crown which woman of quality wears takes the wood as the bone and measures three feet in height, with red silk wrapping and pearls and jade decorating outside the surface and branches and feather inserted on the top, causing the model is extremely special. The Han nationality in Yuan Dynasty, particularly those so-called “southerner” in south of Yangzi River’s clothing roughly is similar to that of Song.

8. Ming Dynasty

At the beginning of Ming dynasty the emperor requests the clothes to restore Tang system. The style of their official costumes is close to that of Tang Dynasty, but the Jinxian crown is replaced by Liang crown, and with loyal crown and other crown styles added. Ming Dynasty's official's costume also adopt circle collar gown and the headwrap. But at this time headwrap is painted black on the surface with short and wide feet, and famous as the black gauze cap. The non-government position common people aren’t allowed to wear. Official's costume are also decorated with gayer patch in chest and back besides the clothes’ colors decided according to official ranks. In the civil official patch there are birds while the military officers there are beasts. In order to award official's meritorious service, emperor bestows phthon robe , flying fish clothing, bullfight clothing and other clothings in addition. The python is the dragon with four claws, the flying fish is the python with fins and a fish tail, and the bullfight is the python added the curving cow horns on the head. And they use the jade belt when the official ranks to the upperest. Therefore the style of “boa robe jade belt” becomes the most prominent attire of big bureaucrats at that time. These are loyal clothes, ordinary clothes and the queen clothes:

9. Qing Dynasty

Qing Dynasty is changed to Man dress. The Qing governors carrys out the custom of tonsure and exchanging dress by violent means and unify men’s clothing according to Man nationality’s custom. In 1652, emperor Shunzhi published "Clothing Color Palanquin Rule" issues and ordered to execute it, abolishing the Han nationality’s style in aspect of crowns and clothes since then. In the Ming Dynasty man all grow long hairs and pull them to a bun, wear the loose clothes, wear the stockings and shallow surface shoes; in the Qing Dynasty people do tonsure, keep the pigtail which hangs behind the brain, and wears the thin horse's hoof sleeve archery clothes, the tight sock and deep series boots. But the officials and people clothing distinguishes right from wrong according to law. The official Chinese-style unlined garments which officials wear outside the gown are often in stone green color, therefore the color clothing is not used. When people in Qing Dynasty distinguish difference ranks of official's costume, they continues to use patch but also pay great attention to tasseled cap's roof ornament. The first official rank installs the ruby on the top of the crown, the second rank installs the coral on the top of the crown, the third rank installs blue gems on the top of the crown, the fourth rank installs golden lapis lazuli on the top of the crown, and the following has their differences respectively. Among the military officers the close relatives, trusted subordinate of the emperor and those militaries who has great exploits are also bestowed to wear the peacock feathers which have differences of the single eye, double eyes and treble eyes. Therefore the Qing Dynasty official's costume then takes “bow peacock feathers” as the symbol of the most prominent official. Han nationality female attire in Ming, Qing Dynasty doesn’t change too much. Women still wear shirt and skirt, and begin to replace skirt with trousers in Qing Dynasty later period. During the intermediate stage of Qing Dynasty, the female attire is decorated with borders layer upon layer and is called the “rolls inlays”. Man nationality women in Qing Dynasty wear the Qi attire and they do not bind the feet, do not tie the skirt, all wears the Qi skirts, and sometimes wear sleeveless jacket outside the skirts. After Qianlong period, among the Man nationality female attire there appear a kind of “pot bottom” shoes with high bottom . And After Xianfeng period, there appear big “two heads” and “to pull wing greatly” and other hairstyles, becoming the prominent characteristic of Man nationality female attire.
