Wearing Hanfu to the streets has become a trend we are keen on. Many beautifully produced TV dramas in ancient costumes also bring new inspiration to us who like Hanfu. However, some foreign friends think that Hanbok and kimono are Han Chinese clothing, or that Han Chinese clothing is one of them. It’s actually quite different. In Japan’s Nara period, that is, China’s prosperous Tang period, Japan sent a large number of Tang envoys to China to learn Chinese culture, art, and legal system, hanfu modern including the clothing system. In Japan, it is called “Zhiwu” or “Wufu”, which means clothing from Wudi (now Jiangsu and Zhejiang) in China. At that time, Japan also imitated the Tang system and promulgated the “Clothing Order” and “Old Ageing Order”, imitating the Tang Dynasty court dress system, which was used for the enthronement ceremony, crown ceremony, wedding ceremony, and other weekly ceremonies. It is composed of several large squares, and most of them are straight lines when worn on the body. The main difference between modern kimonos and Hanfu: the lines of Hanfu are curved, and some styles are flattened into squares, but they are all smooth curves when worn on the body; the lines of kimonos are straight, and they are straight and right angles when they are unfolded. After the middle period of the Joseon Dynasty, the court clothes absorbed the clothing styles of the Ming Dynasty, and they all followed the Chinese system. Hanbok, in the Tang Dynasty, Silla (one of the countries on the Korean peninsula) asked Tang Taizong to give Han clothes and abolish the clothes of Silla, so as to be the same as China. The Luo official’s head is the same style, but after the Ming Dynasty, it was changed to the style of the corners, and the Li Dynasty also changed to the short corners; for example, the dresses of the queens of the Li Dynasty have always been the style of the Chinese Queen Zhai. In particular, women’s clothing has developed towards high-waisted Ru skirts, and official uniforms, court uniforms, and important court dresses have always retained the Hanfu and changed with the changes of Hanfu. The main difference between modern Hanbok and Hanbok is that Hanbok generally has a cross-collar right hem, but also has a pair of fronts (big V-neck), while the cross-collar of North Korean clothing is not obvious, similar to a small V-neck; women’s clothing skirts are particularly high, and the hem is very wide and fluffy. Hanfu symbolizes the splendid Chinese civilization and has profoundly affected the entire East Asia region. Japanese kimono and Korean hanbok all evolved from Hanfu.The traditional costumes of the Han nationality have existed for more than 4,000 years in Chinese history, and are the costumes that best reflect the Chinese nation’s aesthetic character, ideology and culture. It is believed that there will be more designers from friends from all over the world who will also add modern improved elements that are more suitable for Hanfu in the near future, so that it not only retains the essence of traditional culture, but also gives a more realistic lifestyle integration and innovation, so as to achieve a modern aesthetic.
