Dress Culture: Grade Markers In Official Uniform

In a hierarchical society, clothing is an external symbol of a person's status.

"Rank and grade, rank, etc.

The world sees its clothes and knows its worth "(Jia Yi's new book.

It is said that from the time of Shun, clothes had "twelve chapters" system.

According to the Confucian doctrine of Confucians in the Han Dynasty, the twelve chapter is the twelve pattern: day, month, star, mountain, dragon, Chinese worm (i.e. pheasant), algae (water grass), fire, powder, rice, hare (hatchet), and (shape).

The twelve patterns of the son of heaven are all full. The Lords take eight patterns below the dragon, and the Qing uses six designs below the algae. The doctor uses four patterns of algae fire powder rice and two patterns of algae fire.

It can be combined with the lower and lower levels.

The significance of these patterns is also inconsistent with the ancients, and is estimated to be related to ancient witchcraft.

"Day", "Moon" and "Star" represent heaven. The ancients thought that the "mountain" was the way to heaven. All the emperors of the past went to Taishan to seal the Buddhist sacrifices. So these four designs were used by emperors alone.

"Dragon" is a symbol of kingship. "Hua worm" is close to Phoenix. These two designs can be used by Emperor Qian and three princes before the Qin Dynasty.

Civilian clothes are not allowed to be decorated, known as white clothes, so they later called the common people "Bai Ding".

During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, the ritual of the collapse of the ritual and the enclave of the prince of the kingdom of Chu, when he attended the League of several princes and states, was criticized by the participants of various countries.

Mu Zi, a grandson of Lu state, said: "Chu is very beautiful. Unlike a doctor, he is like a king.

A doctor wearing the clothes of the princes, I'm afraid there is the meaning of usurping. Clothing is the external expression of the inner thoughts! "Mu Zi predicted well.

Later, all dynasties regarded the dress as "illegal" as an act of imprisonment, and if they did not do well, they would lose their head.

Some dynasties punished less, such as the Yuan Dynasty decrees, if the officials were dressed illegally, they should be penalized for one year and be relegated after a year. If the civilians were overruled, they would be punished by beating fifty boards and confiscating unauthorized clothing.

There are different mark marks on the official uniform of the past dynasties.

The twelve chapter of the ancient system was later reformed.

For example, the official uniform of Ming Dynasty is represented by flowers.

A product official uses a circular diameter of five inches of big family flowers, two products with three inches of small flowers, three products with two inch no branches and leaves of scattered flowers, four products five products with one inch and a half flowers, six products seven products with an inch of small flowers.

Eight of the products are not flowers, about Shanghai's so-called "what flower heads".

This is worn by Chao and Shane.

Officials often wear different patterns in office wear: civil servants use birds to distinguish grades, a product of cranes, two products of golden pheasants, four peacocks, four products of Yunyan, five kinds of white eaves, six egrets, seven products, eight kinds of oriole, nine quails, and military officers are divided by animals.

This is true.

"Good song" in a dream of Red Mansions: "because of the small cap, the shackles carry.

Yesterday, he was so cold that he had a long purple python.
