So, what kind of charm does Chinese clothing, the skirt in the Hanfu system, have that can last through thousands of years and become a classic style in our Chinese history? This article counts the underskirts of each dynasty, trying to sort out the relatively stable shapes among them, and see what the traditional "tong" is in our Hanfu system, and what the "zong" is that never changes away from its origin. 1.

Understand the evolution of Ruqun with just one picture
There is a very basic shape in Hanfu, which is a skirt with an upper skirt and a lower skirt, which matches the basic concept of Hanfu with a top and a lower skirt. The jacket is a short top, and the skirt is usually a floor-length skirt.

In fact, Han women in the Qing Dynasty still wore Han-made skirts and shirts, but due to the heavy pressure of Manchu policies, the original form was gradually lost. Underskirts can be worn by both men and women. Men's underskirts usually refer to the "clothes" of the upper and lower garments. Deep clothing was popular during the Qin and Han Dynasties, but this does not mean that the skirt disappeared. It is still one of the commonly used clothing.

At that time, a group of Internet users who wanted to "revitalize Chinese culture" gathered… -
