The aesthetics of mankind has always undergone earth-shaking changes with the changes of the times. At different times, beauty has different performances. An inclusive country is often reflected in their clothing. Walking down the street, we often see people dressed in Chinese Hanfu. Like everyone else on the street, they wear Chinese Hanfu to go shopping, eat, wait for traffic lights. Their straightforward attitude reveals their confidence in history and their passion for traditional culture. In Ancient China, especially nobles or large families, the requirements for dressing are almost strict, for example, a hat has countless complicated kinds because the "crown" represents the social status of this person. From the time of the Yellow Emperor, people began to use cloth to make clothes. However, due to the backwardness of science and technology and the lack of material, the cloth is very scarce, so the cloth is also an ornament of aristocratic symbolic rights. The Yellow Emperor is also the earliest designer in China. He proposed that "the sleeves are wide and drooping".this should also be the prototype of China's most famous clothing "robes". In the Han Dynasty, the fabric was fully developed and the Hanfu became diverse. Of course, due…

According to granny's grandson, it was on his recommendation that the grandmother began to try and enjoy the Hanfu. As traditional clothing, it is not recommended by the elders to the younger generation, but rather by the younger generation to try it first and then encourage the older generation to experience it together. It's an intriguing thing. Why is the acceptance of Hanfu so high among the younger generation when the older generation had little knowledge of it?   Hanfu has been worn for thousands of years, but why are young people more aware of it instead? Many young people mentioned that when they first wore Hanfu in front of their parents or grandparents, their elders did not even know that is Hanfu.

In recent years, whether it is the popularity of ancient costume dramas and music, or the rise of the Chinoiserie trend in the fashion industry, the eastern temperament has become more than just an external aesthetic, but also a unique inner charm. The pursuit of the beauty of the East is gradually becoming a realm pursued by the modern people. New Weekly recently had a conversation with three women who embody different eastern characteristics, aiming to find the answer to the beauty of the east through their stories.   Mo Yun The eastern beauty of music lies in its simplicity and subtlety.

In the just-finished 2022 Spring/Summer Shanghai Fashion Week, I wonder if you found your favorite style in so many beautiful modern clothes? In the general environment and background of the increasing revival of traditional culture, many brands have chosen Chinoiserie fashion with national culture as the keynote. We know that only by truly integrating our traditional culture into modern life is there a true revival of culture. In Shanghai Fashion Week, these designer brands present Hanfu with national culture at its core, and they are committed to focusing on the new era concept of reviving traditional Han Chinese clothing and giving fashion a newborn aesthetic. Through creative fusion infused with Chinese aesthetic elements, the major brands tell the history and interpret the national culture in a way that young people can understand. However, these designs still use the western system of traditional Chinese clothing to make a western fashion transformation with collage of various elements. Although there is a very long way to go before the real return, this way can also show the wisdom of the ancient people in a multi-dimensional way with a fashion vocabulary easily understood by modern people, which is a good start anyway, and we…

Background of Hanfu Parade Day At noon on November 22, 2003, Wang Letian, a power worker, dressed in Hanfu, which disappeared in daily life for 358 years, appeared on the street. He dressed in a Hanfu composed of a long Quju (曲裾) and a cocoon silk outer garment, strolls in the square, park and shopping mall in Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province. He said he did so in the hope of "promoting Hanfu" with his own meager strength and making people accept the traditional Chinese clothing again. Although this Han suit is simple and even a little out of shape, it was sewn by Wang Letian and his friends. These like-minded men even set up a team to search for documents, pick up sewing needles and make this Hanfu. Despite the ridicule and incomprehension of some people, Wang Letian calmly walked through the crowd and walked on the most prosperous street in Zhengzhou. He is more and more determined to promote Hanfu. He hopes to influence others with his limited power. Zhang Congxing, a reporter from Lianhe Zaobao in Singapore, came across the photos and wrote a report based on them. This article has also become the first article to…

I have received a lot of PMs recently, all of them asking me the same question. Do you know or like Li Ziqi or not? Do you think that she can be counted as a sort of Chinese culture export? Of course, before that, I have thought about this for a long time. I started to perceive Li Ziqi from 2017. So I think I have my own perspective of what she's doing, and it's worth sharing. On-screen, Li Ziqi’s life seems to defy the rules of reality. With more than 60 million fans worldwide, the Chinese internet celebrity is famous for her videos, where she performs the work of a farmer with the grace of a fairy. In one video, she picks flowers on horseback in a red cape, invoking the image of Red Riding Hood. In another, she builds an item of bamboo furniture set using traditional Chinese techniques. Actually, I remember that back in the summer of 2017, she had a lot of haters who were doubting the real intention behind her videos. And then she put out an article that explains how many of the materials she does herself and how much hard work she puts in it and how real and authentic her…
