Three Qin Clothing Culture Spread On The Silk Road

"Eclectic collection of colorful flowers" is the title of the cultural discussion on ancient Changan costumes and Silk Road in the book "Shaanxi dress culture" by Professor Lan Yu of Xi'an Polytechnic University. There is not a book on clothing culture or history written in a province written in the field of clothing science and clothing history in China. There are few bibliographies on clothing culture in a province or along the silk road. However, due to the special course of history and the special location of the ancient Silk Road, Shaanxi and Xi'an already have the conditions to write a clothing culture and clothing.

　　 Shaanxi Xi'an is one of the birthplaces of Chinese traditional costumes. Shaanxi, especially Xi'an, has been leading the trend of Chinese costumes in a very long historical period. Since the Yellow Emperor period, this is the central area of Chinese culture. Later, 13 dynasties built capital in Xi'an, which naturally became the center and source of national dress culture. And when the core of the power is transferred to other places, Shaanxi clothing will play a role of inheritance. The Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty all took Shaanxi and Xi'an as Gyeonggi lands. The Han costumes and Tang costumes appeared on the land of Shaanxi were the typical representatives of Chinese clothing heading for the world through the silk road. They all once appeared in the history of Chinese clothing, and also formed the track of the germination, formation and development of the dress culture in Shaanxi. It also accumulated deep soil for the evolution and innovation of Chinese clothing in the contemporary era.

Shaanxi Clothes & Accessories "Culture" is composed of two parts: "the historical evolution of Shaanxi costumes" and "Shaanxi's clothing culture". In the first part, "the historical evolution of Shaanxi costumes", the Prime Minister of Huangdi started to make clothes -- the development of clothing culture. According to the records, the dressing history of the western people has been traced back to the early days of the Chinese nation. The role of costume is only a practical shelter, while the clothing in Xia and Shang Dynasties has only formed a preliminary form of Chinese costume, that is, "under the coat". After Zhou Dai, the gradation and social and cultural significance of clothing were clear, and the rich aesthetic function correspondingly emerged. The two dynasties of the Qin and Han dynasties had a prominent position in Chinese history, creating and consolidating a new social stage, and the appearance of Chinese clothing was also completely new. The dress culture of the Han Dynasty made a great contribution to the development of Chinese clothing. The Chinese are known as "Han people". The largest ethnic group in China is known as the Han nationality. Hanfu has become the most representative traditional clothing of the Han nationality. The brilliant Silk Road spread the culture of Han Dynasty and China to Western and even all parts of the world. The capital of the Sui and Tang Dynasties was built in Guanzhong Changan, and Changan became the birthplace of fashion again. The clothing culture of the Tang Dynasty was brilliant. Many garments were soon popular through the Silk Road and throughout the world.

In " Shaanxi In the clothing culture talk, Lanyu is impressed by the customs of folk dress in Shaanxi. Lan Yu believes that the customs of Shaanxi are basically similar to that of the whole country, but there are different customs in southern Shaanxi, Guanzhong and Northern Shaanxi. Such as southern Shaanxi, Ankang and Shangluo are close to Hubei, and their dress customs are close to the beautiful style of Chu culture. Hanzhoung is close to Sichuan, and its dress custom has the characteristics of Shu culture. Guanzhong was always the center of the Central Plains culture from the Yan Huang period to the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Qin Han period and the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The geographical distance between Northern Shaanxi and Guanzhong and southern Shaanxi is far apart from each other, and the customs are far apart from each other. In the geographical location, they are connected with Inner Mongolia in the north and the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region in the west, and only in the Yellow River from the East and Shanxi. It is a typical area of integration of nomadic culture and farming culture. Its dress color is monotonous. In short, the clothing of Shaanxi and Xi'an is commendable and written. It has a long, long and thick historical foundation. It has left a colorful and indelible brilliant chapter in the history of Chinese clothing.
