Chinese and Western

Sun Zhongshan combines the characteristics of western style clothes and Chinese style clothes, and designs a four patch bag with straight lapel and a bag cover.

Mao Zedong often shows people in the Chinese tunic suit, and the Chinese tunic suit is also called the "wool dress" by the West.

Mao Zedong loved gray tunic, mainly in middle and gray in spring and autumn, and mainly in dark grey in winter.

The Chinese tunic suit was slightly changed, the collar changed to a sharp collar, the neckline increased to 46 centimeters, the coat was longer than the front, and the shoulders were upturned.

Many famous figures such as Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai and Deng Xiaoping often wear Chinese tunic suits.

The costume of Zhongshan suit and the changes derived from it become the main clothing styles of Chinese people before 1980s.

After 1980s, with the deepening of reform and opening up, suits and other fashions began to become popular.

Although the Chinese tunic suit is gradually forgotten in the folk.

In 2009, the 60th anniversary birthday of People's Republic of China, President Hu Jintao and other leaders in the Chinese tunic suit facing the world and facing the world.

The first Chinese leader in a suit and tie.

Since the implementation of the economic reform policy in 80s, Chinese leaders began to abandon Mao Zedong style clothing and turn to suit tie.

Hu Yaobang was the central leader in making red suits. He was the first to wear a suit in public.

Hu Yaobang spoke with various gestures when he spoke. He was short, and when he spoke, his suit was often lifted up, showing a long necktie from below.

People often laugh kindly at this time.

What is "red capital"?

After the founding of new China, in order to meet the needs of the central leadership, overseas personnel and foreign missions in Beijing, the Hongdu fashion company from Shanghai moved to Beijing, which was composed of 7 boutiques, namely, Bo Wei, Li Cun, blue sky, Raymond, Hongxia, Wanguo, Jintai, and the subsidiary factories of the central office of the Beijing.

Formerly known as the "red gang tailor" in Shanghai, after the Opium War, they made clothes for foreigners called "red hairs".

It is well known for its tailored suits and exquisite Chinese tunic.

Deng Xiaoping's jacket at the South patrol

During the 1992 South patrol, Deng Xiaoping was mainly dressed in two gray and dark blue jackets.

Jackets are Deng Xiaoping's most representative costumes, which can be used as a symbol of the leaders in the period of national pformation.

Deng Xiaoping daughter Deng Lin said the jacket was specially bought for her father's southern tour.

When his daughter bought it for him, he went home to try it on and found it long. Deng Xiaoping could not bear to leave this new dress on the waste, so the tailor cut off a hem.

The distance between the original buttons is about 15 centimeters. After cutting off a piece, the bottom button is only four or five centimeters away from the hem of the clothes. It seems very incongruous.

He had been wearing a uniform Chinese tunic for many years, but before the South tour, he asked his family to buy him a jacket, which was matched with the atmosphere of reform and opening up.

Since then, he has been wearing this jacket, calling it the first time he wore such comfortable clothes.

Individuation in uniform clothing

At the eighteen meeting, the participants were dressed in black suits, black hair, white shirt and tie.

The US foreign policy has published two articles to analyze the black fashion of Chinese politics. The writer is an American living in Beijing, and the Chinese name is Fei Zhiyuan (Nels Frye).

In his eyes, Beijing Style is the black suit of the eighteen major meetings. The black hair and white shirt are of the same style. This not only conceal the shape, age and identity of each representative, but also highlights the unity, continuity and stability of the ruling party.

Frye has also passed some accessories to analyze the leader's personality. For example, Jiang Zemin's rimmed glasses are impressive. Hu Jintao's golden edge glasses are not dull. Wu Bangguo's square glasses are quite retro.

But in general, the image of Chinese political figures in the eyes of westerners is serious and correct.

Political analysts at University of Nottingham say that in terms of image issues, Chinese politicians are rarely innovative and difficult to distinguish between them.

"NoTieStyle"

In December 10, 2013, less than a month ago, the new Chinese Communist Party took office. On the evening of the CCTV news broadcast, Xi Jinping was shown a picture of the Forum on economic work held in Guangzhou. Some netizens were careful to discover that Xi Jinping had no ties.

The discovery sparked a heated debate on micro-blog. Some netizens said, "this style is very international."

Foreign media commented that this led to the new trend of "no NoTieStyle" in the new leadership meeting of China.

In some fashion circles and many netizens, President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan always interpret "diplomacy" in some important diplomatic occasions.

A designer in China thinks that the bright elements in Peng Liyuan's clothing will always echo the details of Xi Jinping's clothing skillfully.
