The Chinese Han Costume
There are 56 nationalities in China.As the major one,the Han people make up 93% of all Chinese people.It is originated from the HuaXia Group 4,000 years ago,which was call the Han since the Han's Dynasty(202B.C-220A.D)till today.During its evolution,the Han people created one of the greatest culture in the World,which has influence the whole culture in East Asia.So Japanese and Korean culture came from China.
The Han people started their own wear since 5,000 years ago,which was called Han Costume.It has its unique characteristics.First,the two pieces making up the front of it,the left piece must press the right one,so the collar is y-shaped.Second,Han Costumes has no button but belting.Third,the sleeves are wide.As the Han people's culture can represent the Chinese culture,the Han Costume can also be the most representative costume in China.
Sadly,in 1644 the entrance of Manchurians destroyed the evolution of the Han Costume.The Qing Dynasty(1644-1911) ordered"All the Han people must change their clothing into the Manchurian ones,anyone disobedient must be executed."after many wars,the Han people were forced to wear Manchurian clothing.The Han men were forced to make their hair like pigtail,and the Han women were forced to wear cheongsam during the follow 300 years since China entered into modern times.So the pigtail-hair and the cheongsam cannot represent the Chinese 5,000 years culture.
Today we no longer forgot the importance of the Han costume. Its a very important part of the chinese traditional costume history.
is that beautiful？ The Chinese Han Costume feel like Elegant ，Humble, gentle
