Since the Tang Dynasty Tang Dynasty costumes to adopt an open policy, Western, Tibetan costumes eclectic, so “muddy hat”, “when the world makeup” to be popular. This is the history of ancient Chinese costumes third great revolution. Fashion big change from the previous two The difference is, this time by the exchange of clothing large north-south direction to the flow of things. Costume hierarchy of power system is a symbol of feudal society, feudal ruling class as a spiritual pillar of Confucianism, put Zuxian Cheng abide by the law as a filial stressed dressed system must follow the traditional method, especially as big dress vestments and robes, not abandoned relics of kings, so called canonic; it has great conservative and closed. Court everyday clothing called uniforms, uniforms with period features. Gaozu Li Yuan (AD 618 to 636) in Takenori seven years (AD 624) enacted new laws that the famous “Takenori order”, which includes clothing precepts, namely, the emperor’s clothes fourteen, Queen’s clothing three , the Crown Prince of clothes six, Crown Princess of serving three, the ministers of clothing XXII, Ming Fu’s clothing six.

Tang Dynasty costumes colorful costumes reason, there are many factors, first in the Sui Dynasty foundation. Sui dynasty reign is short, but the silk industry has made great progress. Literature remember Emperor “SENKUAN clothing to adorn their evil,” he not only gorgeous concubines envoys under dressed, even when the ship canal tow rope travel pass for the silk by the system are the two sides of trees with green silk decorated their willow to color silk tie its flowers, enough to see the amazing silk production.
To the Tang Dynasty, silk origin throughout the country, regardless of yield and quality are more than the previous generation, so as to novelty splendid Tang Dynasty costumes provide a solid material foundation. Coupled with extensive contacts among peoples of all countries to take widely absorb cultural attitudes, and make the national costume mastery, and thus able to launch numerous new wonderful crown clothing. Tang clothing, especially women’s clothing, not only for the time people are advocating, and even today people to watch the Tang Dynasty costumes, Yijue excited. There is no affectation of the state, there is no tweaking reserved posture. Show in front of people, is the vibrant, exciting and brings ecstasy costumes. Its color nor gaudy not take, a variety of brighter colors competing rival, unwilling sparse lonely, plus gold and silver mixed in, the markedly dazzle people’s eyes. Its decorative motifs, all birds in pairs, flowers, Yoshimitsu radiance, joyfully lively, described as a large Tang Shengjing faction.
Tang in today’s apparel industry, and the impact on future apparel industry is its unparalleled cultural and spiritual outlook. It presents a peak in the Tang Dynasty and cultural heyday state, colorful, varied and transcontinental transit, the arrogance of the powerful atmosphere. Tang culture is a valuable asset of the Chinese nation, with a strong shocking and radiation generated on clothing solidarity and cohesion, so that we benefit from infinite, and posterity Fook Yum with children and grandchildren.
Tang Tang Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty costumes, the northern nomadic Huns, Khitan, Uighur many contacts with the Central Plains, coupled with the Silk Road camel caravans flocked to the Tang Dynasty costumes great impact. The so-called barbarian, is on the northern ethnic Han people as a derogatory, here we talk about history, time being retained at the title. Comes with the barbarian culture, especially Hu Fu – this includes India, Persia, and many other ethnic groups, including ethnic attire, so Tang Dynasty women refreshing. Then, like a gust of wind swept through the Central Plains Zhucheng Hu Fu hot, especially for Chang’an and Luoyang Sheng, whose jewelry is also the most heathen colors. Yuan Zhen’s poem: “Since Hu Ji from dust, hair vellus Xingshan Montreal Luo, female women learn Hu Hu makeup, Kabuki into sound business Hu Yue Hu Hu Hu Ji Hu tone makeup, fifty years actually Fun Park.”
Emperor loves dance Hu Yue Wu, Yang, Wu Lushan are dance experts, Bai “Everlasting Regret” in the “Soul of Hero” is the kind of dance HU. Otherwise muddy off dance, dance deadwood, Hu Han eddies and other right music, dance, costumes and other arts have a greater impact. Written at that time, “study tour Chenqie everyone turn” exciting scene is also conceivable. Yao Runeng “Lushan deeds” in mind, “Tempo beginning, the swim cap Wu Shishu good clothes, the woman then the hairpin step shake, clothing system Gum sleeves narrow.” Hu Fu on the image of a woman found in stone line drawing or other monuments . Than the typical person, that is worn on the muddy hat, dressed in tight sleeves lapel tight robe, under the trousers, waist and foot climbing boots. “Yu Fu Zhi” cloud, “and after the clothes were men and boots such as Xi, Khitan’s clothing” When for such attire.

Costume system
Outline
Chinese Costume system has been initially established in the Xia and Shang Dynasties, to the gradual improvement of the Zhou dynasty, Spring and Autumn turn be incorporated Reiji. The Tang Dynasty, Costume institutional development to improve the very rich, on the later and abroad have a profound impact.

Fu head, round neck, leather belts, boots, long Yao matching costumes, has been handed to the Ming Dynasty.
In short, the Tang Dynasty Baiguan mufti (Note: Supplements should not enter into rituals associated with significant morning sessions) inherited pre-production for the round robes, due to the lower edge of front and rear flaps connected with a whole cloth into a cross gown, so called round neck gown gowns. Tang Dynasty, Tang Dynasty when the impact of the Hu family fashion popular narrow tight straight sleeve design since the late Tang Hu Feng, the popular tradition undress big sleeves. The first coat with matching uniforms is Fu head, foot clothing as upi Kuni boots, accessories are belts, fish (turtles) bags.
Gaozu Li Yuan Yu Takenori seven years (AD 624) enacted new laws that the famous “Takenori order”, which includes clothing precepts, namely, the emperor’s clothes fourteen, Queen of serving three, the Crown Prince of serving six, Prince Edward Fei’s clothing three, the ministers of clothing XXII, Ming Fu’s clothing six. Content Basic inherited Sui old system, the emperor’s 14 kinds of fur garments for the big crown, Dagon crown, Bi crown, Cui Mian, linen crown, mysterious crown, crown Babel, Buddhists cloth crown, Wu Bian, Bian suits, black mediated conical cap, white Shamao, flat towel conical cap, white exactly. There are six types of clothing Dagon prince crown, crown excursion, public service, his post, Bian clothes, flat towel conical cap. Ministers of the 22 kinds of clothing has Dagon crown, Bi crown, Cui Mian, linen crown, mysterious crown, flat crown, crown MG, Wu Bian, Bian clothing, JinXian crown, crown excursion, France crown (haitai crown), Alpine crown (side note crown), the Commission Maung crown (with leather Benten same system), they are not the crown, flat towel conical cap, black conical cap referral, referral conical cap, flat green towel conical cap, with clothing (robes), from the provincial services (public clothing), wedding dress; Queen of the three clothing has groceries, clothing, Ju Yi, Tian Chai bare clothing; Crown Princess of three kinds of clothing has Yu Zhai, Ju Yi, Tian Chai ceremony clothing. There are six types of clothing Ming Fu Zhai Yi, Tian Chai ritual clothing, ritual clothing, public service, short-sleeve dress jacket, flower hairpin ceremony clothing. These types of clothing sets methods and taking those objects and taking occasion, “Tang Zhi car service” has a detailed description.
TangGaoZu provisions ministers had uniforms, three products with purple Prince Dake (large floral) rungra production, with jade belt hook. Wupinyishang with vermilion small families (small groups flower) rungra production, belt with grass golden hook. Six products in yellow (lemon yellow) double Kushiro (geometric pattern) Aya production, belt hook with a rhino. Seven items with a green turtle, two giant, ten flowers (both geometric pattern) Aya production, with the silver Kua (buckle) Nine mixed with blue silk damask production, belt hook with Yu stone. Emperor Li Shimin (AD 627 to 649 years) period, the Quartet pacification, national prosperity, he proposed Yanwuxiuwen, promote sandwiches, thanks to ministers Jinde crown, colors and uniforms for Baiguan made finer requirements. According to the “New Tang car service records,” written, Mishina shirt purple robe above, beam Jin belt, thirteen Kua (mounted on the belt with the belt hanging Die 〓 tools, and decorative effect). Four products deep scarlet robe, gold belt eleven Kua. Five products robe light Fei, gold belt ten Kua. Six products robe dark green, silver with nine Kua.

Flow of foreign officials and commoners clothes yellow, copper and iron with seven Kua (General Chapter reign has banned foreign officials and commoners stream yellow dress has see above). Tang Emperor Longshuo years (AD 662 years), for fear of eight items chaos purple robes and dark blue (indigo ancient times with the resulting dip deep reddish blue shade, so the fear mixed with purple), changed to green. Duke since the Spring and Autumn Period (685 BC and 643 BC, reigned) start wearing purple, before deciding to purple for the top grade of clothing color pattern, to the Song has been changed. Big Red to the Ming Dynasty was only replaced.
Between the Sui and Tang, Chinese costumes the most obvious feature is the two-track system. In a large sacrifice scene, wearing traditional Han Chinese clothing. In peacetime, the Tang Dynasty is Hu Fu uniforms (ie Xianbei loading) systems. Tang national unity, economic prosperity, more open shape, increasingly ornate costumes. Tang women is characterized skirt, shirt, cape unity. Among women, appeared topless exposed arm of the image. In the tomb of Princess Yongtai east wall murals, there is a comb buns, bare-chested, Jianpi red silk, with yellow on the tight sleeves blouse, under a green robe, red waist belt hanging image of women in the Tang Dynasty, and thus ” dark pink chest ajar suspect snow “,” sit with Obi rayon fiber grass skirts that scraped plum line “With more vivid understanding. Slow beam Luoqun half Luxiong, not what people can do. In the Tang Dynasty, only the identity of the person to wear chest shirt, Princess Yongtai can be half-naked chest, showgirl can be half-naked chest in order to please the ruling class, while the civilians house half-naked woman is not allowed to chest. At that time, Tang half bare-chested somewhat similar to modern Western dress evening dress, but not allowed to expose the shoulders and back.
Tang Costume system in order to implement Takenori after are constantly revised and improved on it Cheng Zhouhan tradition, supporting everything from clothing, clothing materials, decoration and color and other aspects of the formation of the complete series.
Developing
In the Emperor cause six (610) only provides that “Wupinyishang through the purple, green Liupinyixia combined Fei.” To further consolidate the Tang Dynasty uniforms etiquette, developed a detailed precepts format. Grade difference is mainly reflected in two aspects: product color system and chapter service system.
(1) Commodities color system (Concurrent belt system):
Magenta systems to officials scattered with different grades of officials in different colors, materials, patterns robes system (and to the provisions Belt Accessories)
Takenori four years (621) to develop a preliminary specification of uniforms, August Edict: “Mishina above, Dake silk damask and Romania, the color purple, decorated with jade. Wupinyishang small silk damask and Law Division, the color of Zhu , decorated with gold. six items above (under), silk clothing, miscellaneous small Aya, cross shuttle, dual Xun, the color yellow. six seven items decorated with silver products. eight chemicals Nine Tou stone. ”
Zhenguan four years (630) Secondary Xiazhao revised: “Mishina more clothes purple, four products Wupinyishang clothing Fei, six to seven items, green products, green eight items Nine to the woman from the husband of color. Still CCS Yellow. ”
Zhenguan years (631) Edict served more than seven items tortoiseshell pair Aya giant ten flowers, the color green. Nine more clothing and miscellaneous small damask cloth, the color green.
Lantern first year (674) Chao: “a product less bureaucratic and bring towel, count bags, knives, grindstones its military attache, want with towel, count bags Zheyi listen. Wen attache purple dress above the third grade, Jin belt. Four Commodities clothes deep scarlet and gold belt. five eyeshadows light Fei, a golden girdle. six eyeshadows dark green, light green dress seven items and silver belt. eight eyeshadows dark blue, light blue Nine clothing and Tou rock band. ”
– Thus laying the basis Tang clothing color system. Later emperors only be adjusted timely –
Civilization first year (684) will be replaced by Bi cyan eighty-nine goods (because blue cloth with dark blue indigo repeatedly dip resulting reddish shade, easy and purple mixed).
Jingyun years (710-711): “Nine less than a product, according to civil and military Lantern story with towel, count bags. Attache salty with seven things Wei x (x-generation ancient word can not enter, glyph class dispatch), and foot its belt, a product the following Wupinyishang and gold. six seven items and silver items. eight chemicals Nine shared Tou stone. ”
Wo six (832) Pushe Wang Ya quasi-imperial: “Prince and above the third grade, if two queens, clothing color with purple, decorated with jade. Wupinyishang, clothing color with Zhu, decorated with gold. Than seven items, clothing color green, decorated with silver. Nine more clothing color with green, decorated with Tou stone. should serve green and young people, that by ministry officials and food into real Paul, its use Hoon officer and MG, straight Zhu Division By origin goods, still the sword, grind, Fun handkerchief. flow foreign officials and commoners clothing color with yellow, decorated with copper and iron. their various pro Asaga party costumes, each depending on the prospective product, Zhu Division one product, two products serving Jade Hsu and pass rhinoceros, Mishina Xu clothing flower rhinoceros and Class rhinoceros and jade, and served Bik who promised CCS green. “while dressed in uniforms patterns system was further standardization:” Mishina above Xu served falcon title Seocho, geese title ribbon, and on the peacock damask gown jacket Fourth grade five items, Xu Huang delivery service branches Aya. Liupinyixia often Participation Officer, Xu Ling nest serving small groups, and no pattern damask, every single organization and other organizations charge. addition to color outside, should queer different system damask gown jacket, etc., and forbidden. ”
In conclusion of the color in the order of: Purple – Fei – Green – Green (later changed to Bi).
The belt ornaments descending order: Jade – Gold – Silver – Tou stone.
As for the yellow, before Tang Dynasty, yellow can pass down clothing, such as Sui Zhaoshi soldier clothes yellow. Tang that the color red yellow approximation sun, Day is the symbol of the Emperor dignities, “Heaven goes for the day, the country goes for the king.” So red yellow (ocher yellow) in addition to the Emperor, the subjects can not arrogate to use. The provisions for the emperor ocher yellow uniforms exclusive colors. Tang Emperor Li Zhi (AD 650 to 683) at the beginning, the flow foreign officials and commoners can wear normal yellow (such as lemon yellow shade colder), to mid-General Zhang Tang Emperor reign (AD 668), fear of yellow mixed with ocher yellow, the official China Yellow River is prohibited. Since then it has become a yellow symbol of the Emperor.
After Gaozong, purple Mishina officer for the clothing color; pale crimson robes for the five product color, dark green robes for the six product color, light green for the seven items robes color, dark blue for the eight products robes color, light Nine robes for the color cyan, yellow and plebeian person extrauterine clothing color. Costume also has a great influence on neighboring countries. For example, Japan and obedience color costume greatly learned the essence of Korean clothing is also inherited from the formal costume strengths. Costume dress jacket soft lines long, very beautiful comfortable, the materials used are mainly silk, so it’s clothing and “soft” and “Rejoice” with. Costume itself bewildering variety, good change from appearance to absorb foreign costumes decorated with bold features, and more to Central Asia, India, Iran, Persia, and the North and Western alien costumes as a reference, to enrich the Tang Dynasty costumes culture, making the Tang Dynasty costumes more abundant mining magnificent, unique singular scene in the history of China in a wonderful dress, attracted worldwide attention.
Tang dress patterns changed in the past the kind of talent divine creative thinking, with real flowers, grass, fish, insects for sketching, but the traditional dragon and phoenix pattern has not been excluded, which is also affected by the imperial power and divine decision. Then clothing pattern design tends to freedom of expression, plump, fat artistic style. Late period costumes pattern is more delicate and beautiful. Bird costume pattern, trim patterns, floral silk yarn dress patterns in soft clothing, really flowers, Zhengyan Sheng. As Five Wang said: “Luo Shan heavily embroidered leaf, silver goose Jinfeng each one clump, every two hours to dance Pina, long live the word among the Pacific.” Today, we see these beautiful luxury dress patterns, are painters who in Dunhuang Grottoes with hard labor for the people after the image of preserved valuable information. The development of the Tang Dynasty costumes overall development, then the dress pattern design tends to freedom of expression, full, gorgeous, mellow, shoes, hats, towels, jade, hair, makeup, jewelry performance, are illustrated in this features.
Tang brought forward inherited Zhou, Warring States, the style of Wei and Jin Dynasties, Zhou Rong designs on apparel rigorous stretch of the Warring States Period, Han crisp, Wei’s elegant as a whole, and on this basis, more luxurious, so clothing, dress patterns reached a historical peak on; Tang Dynasty costumes, dress patterns on the offspring remain in effect to this day. Interlocking pattern in the use of modern dress pattern, showing the traditional patterns combined with modern aesthetic sense implication arising.
It is worth mentioning that the Tang Dynasty clothing color system of government regulations, in real life there is no completely executed. Gaozong Xianheng five years (ie Shangyuan year, AD 674) in May, because the people in the outer Husband within gown shirt, wearing Zhu, purple, blue, green and other colors blouse jacket, or wear these colors in the open countryside The gown shirt, it is also enacted over ban.
(2) chapter service system:
Chapter service system is the uniforms developed to a certain stage, government officials carry with octopus (turtle) bag system. “Old Tang Yu Fu”: “from the rear (Kaiyuan nine 721) Well Built giving tours scarlet purple, case and bag of fish, that the chapter service.” Portable Pei fish purposes, one should use it as a North-jun See the certificate, the second is used to clear hierarchy and strict internal and external.
Wear uniforms fish has begun to take shape since the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty has undergone some interesting changes:
Emperor Emperor Yu Wude year (618) changed the character of whitebait silver Wen Fu. Although fish bags five products dispensed to four items ministry officials, but after the body must be handed back. Three years later Emperor Gojong and humanity is adjusted to die Wupinyishang not required to collect the dead fish bag. Xianheng years (672) fourth grade five officials in the capital goods orders ministry official Pei whitebait. Empress Wu Pei-fish period will be extended to local states were Executive, and in Tianshou first year (690) to change and make the fish inside and outside wear turtle (due to basaltic coincide with the surname Wu), and for the first time above the third grade with the provisions gold turtle bags, four goods with silver, five products with copper.
Pei were resumed during the fish of the system, but indiscriminate grant official synchronization, began to let loose the official Pei fish, fish bags just did not formally connected with clothing color uniforms and go to any of the solution to the fish bag. Ruizong fish bags will be made when the uniforms clothing color connected with: “with the purple by gold, the Fei by snow.”
Pei fish Xuanzong expand the scope of life after Xu Pei fish: “Kaiyuan early, with Madu Yu from five products were fake purple goldfish bags, governor, governor inferior goods by false Fei, fish bags, Wupinyishang calibration, test , and the judge all wear fish. Zhongshu Ling Zhang Jiazhen outs, Retirements who wear fish life, and naturally Baiguan tours Fei, purple, and fish bags will, that the chapter service. “- chapter service system to this perfect clear.
Zhang served institutionalized, Baiguan please scarlet, purple’s clothing, the court must pass a rigorous assessment, and based on the specific situation of officials of distinction, who had just qualified granted. In addition, awarded by Late for chapter service conditions of chaos and further from institutional to be regular.

Tang menswear
Tang Men’s clothing, in the continuation of the traditional cross collar, breasted Hanfu, based on more than a new style. One is Fu head, the other is narrow Xiupao round neck sweater.
Tang Fu head gown shirt when as yet, Fu head, also known as bundle wrapped in cloth head, is formed on the basis Han parcels a towel first served. After the Tang Dynasty, people in Fu head which adds a fixed ornaments, called “towel child.” The shape towel various periods vary. In addition to sub towel outside, Fu head to feet, there are many variations, to the late Tang Dynasty, has been changed from the original soft foot into a hard left and right foot.
The main costumes of the Tang Dynasty officials Xiupao narrow round neck sweater. Also under the robe applying a cross-gown, but also was a major feature of men’s clothing.
Handed down from the numerous pictures appears that this round neck gown shirt popular in the informal setting of a “casual wear Law”: chest under sub-section of the neck, so that the front layer lapel gown hanging natural release, forming a collar look. This, too, is close to Hu Fu in the lapel, and indeed reached a similar effect with Hu Fu. Using today’s words, probably called seem foreign flavor.
However, the field is not the sun round neck gowns for people who generic costume, but not great sacrifice and great affairs activities clothing.

Tang Dynasty women’s wear
Tang national unity, economic prosperity, more open shape, increasingly ornate costumes. Tang women is characterized skirt, shirt, cape unity. Tang dynasties than other women’s wear, with a strong sense of self-confidence and popularity, more elegant and gorgeous gorgeous atmospheric pursuit.

Special – Women’s large-sleeved shirt
Speaking on behalf of the Tang Dynasty female clothing, “female big-sleeved shirt” can be described as one. This term refers to undress big sleeved big sleeves style, such as Wei and Jin Dynasties men generally wear big sleeves elegant tunic, suave, until Southern Dynasties period, this tunic is still the favorite men at all levels, to become fad. But we are here to talk about the big-sleeved shirt, specifically refers to the characteristics of the Tang Dynasty woman wide sleeve dress. It is more than the usual sleeved coat also large, in general or in the garment draped or tied outside, the atmosphere elegant. Fully reflect the prosperous Tang Dynasty, grand, atmospheric cultural identity, showing a gorgeous open then aesthetic fashion. Nowadays many people think of the “wide oversized fairy clothing” basically derived from such large-sleeved shirt.
Interestingly, a statement said: This wide coat-style rise, but with attention to the narrow Hu Fu a relationship. Tangshi Guo Li heyday, foreign exchanges and prosperity, Hu Fu at this time into the Central Plains. However, if the more laissez-faire Hu Fu Sheng, there is the risk of loss of self soaked culture. Although Datang mightiest quite confident of cultural influence, but still some people worry that uncontrolled follow Hu Feng bring some negative impact. So Japan for two years in May Ding Hai Day, Tang Wenzong sent eunuchs to princesses announced a decree: henceforth called on every day, not widely inserted hairpin comb, do not wear short narrow clothes.
Hu Feng Tang Wenzong can not seem to tolerate over the world trend. He believes that the vast Chinese characteristics should belong to China attire, how sought after reimbursing barbarian costume it? Moreover, no other short Doublet men and women, a lot of people unhappy. So, he made a decree requires princesses in the audience of the day, to wear clothes representative of China’s tolerance to doing world example. Zong, the relatively large ladies style began to rise. Ladies feel the atmosphere of this beautiful undress, beginning in sleeves and skirts are willing to use a lot of good fabric, their length and width than the Tang Dynasty when more than one times. The first is the pursuit of large overcoats gorgeous, plus stickers to a more relaxed clothing unlined direction. Some aristocratic women wearing beautiful dress, skirt tied with Weigela chest, wide hem care on the ground, the upper body does not wear thick underwear, and instead a thin Shayi, romantic attitudes to women peculiar charm to break the traditional closed.
Talking about women’s Tang wind-sleeved shirt, can not fail to mention the “Wearing Ladies”, which is quite a big-sleeved shirt open an exaggeration: beauty dress with bare shoulders, upper body straight Phi a big sleeves Leno shirt, light cover breasts, causing the upper body skin faintly revealed. As painter tactics realism, both truthfully portray the Tang Dynasty delicate transparent clothing, and vividly depict women that soft shoulder and arm. Zhou Fen “inertia beam Luoshan half bare-chested” and other poems, paintings that depict such attire.

“Wearing Ladies’ color on silk, as the Tang Dynasty painter Zhou Fang, a pen and simple. Artistically quaint. Now in the possession Liaoning Provincial Museum, describing the aristocratic women spring and summer flowers garden scene, the picture painted ladies of the quiet life. They gorgeous extravagance brilliant play in the courtyard, the action leisurely Nian Hua, shoot butterfly, dog show, tours crane, Xing Xu, lazy sitting, doing nothing, ladies holding fan facies from.

Ladies Shayi dress and flower bun was the costumes, fashionable buns on the hairpin large peony, jasmine inserted under the black backdrop, look graceful, bright. Painting depicts the aristocratic women in the atrium walk flowers, catching butterflies the scenes. Figure character costumes, and other “law-abiding” different image, such as wearing a large flower, wearing a transparent Shayi etc., are rare novelty attire.
As the “Wearing Ladies’ clothing openness even in modern opinion is very bold, but also far more than his contemporaries wrapped wrapped in layers of medieval Western Europe, resulting in its social reality has been controversial. From now unearthed a large number, the late Tang Dynasty figurines of view, the painting ladies clothing reflected the most open women’s fashion culture. Control literature, this dress is in the style of late Tang Dynasty, and has been handed to the Five Dynasties.
Custom – Female with men
Tang clothing women with men in China’s long feudal society, is relatively rare phenomenon. “Within the Book of Rites” has been specified, “gender barrier clothes.” Despite the fact that can not be so absolute, but women with men, often is not considered keep the Women. While before Tang Han costumes when there are small differences between men and women of the phenomenon, but that does not belong to women with men, only in a very relaxed atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty, women with men is possible become a common practice, even so, should also be part of the cause of attributed to the impact of nomads. Impact of alien costumes at the Central Plains, the vast majority are ethnic clothing immediately. Those rugged body frame, valiant attire, as well as strong and vigorous horses, Tang women dress creates a sense of immersion impact, while creating a fit woman with men atmosphere. “Old Tang Yu Fu Zhi” contains “or have a husband, clothes, boots, sweaters, and hierarchy inside and outside Sri Lanka has consistently carry on” has been clearly documented Housemaid with men scenarios. “New Tang Five Elements Chi” mind “within the feast tasted the Emperor, Princess Taiping paclitaxel jade, soap on a towel folded Romania, with numerous grind seven things, dance in Dili before.
“Old Tang Yu Fu Zhi” contains “or have a husband, clothes, boots, sweaters, and hierarchy inside and outside Sri Lanka has consistently carry on” has been clearly documented Housemaid with men scenarios. “New Tang Five Elements Chi” mind “within the feast tasted the Emperor, Princess Taiping paclitaxel jade, soap on a towel folded Romania, with numerous grind seven things, dance in Dili before. Emperor and later laughed and said” women must not be attache, What this dress? ‘”see, admire the emperor also hold tolerant attitudes, and did not scold her daughter not Shurei France. Although this move some Shichong spoiled Princess Taiping, but also illustrates the Tang Dynasty women with men has emerged case.
Women with men, especially in the atmosphere of Datang Kaiyuan Tianbao prevalent. “Ancient Chinese Notes” remember “to Tianbao years, scholar’s wife, her husband boots shirt whip cap, inside and outside are one body.” “New Tang Shih-Chuan” in mind, “I have heard that the ban gold brocade robe two birds, Fortunately, spa and Yang Xi reign of clothes. “It can be seen, when the woman imitation men, dressed in men’s quite common.
Custom – Open and tied
In the tomb of Princess Yongtai east wall murals, there is a comb buns, bare-chested, Jianpi red silk, with yellow on the tight sleeves blouse, under a green robe, red waist belt hanging image of women in the Tang Dynasty, and thus ” dark pink chest ajar suspect snow “,” sit with Obi rayon fiber grass skirts that scraped plum line “With more vivid understanding.
Slow beam Luoqun half Luxiong, not what people are like that. In fact, still in the Tang Dynasty women feudal ethics constraints, only a special talent piercing identity thoracotomy shirt. Paintings can be half-naked human breast, that is kept in the inner chamber; showgirl who half-naked chest, is based on the body to please the ruling class. The civilian population is still not the house half-naked woman in the chest. At that time, Tang half bare-chested somewhat similar to modern Western dress evening dress, but not allowed to expose the shoulders and back.
“Semi-bare-chested,” paintings, and “female with men,” the case, it seems from the reflection of the degree of openness of social thought at that time. So many people believe that the Tang Dynasty women thus open and free. But this is only a one-sided understanding. In fact, after Wu Zetian, Tang spotlight social situation of women increasingly harbor grudges, “dutiful, keep the Women” as the official home for the female members of Han’s usual requirements. Examine the ancient feudal culture established regulations for women given constraints, many books on doctrine for the Tang Dynasty.
Although the social status of women in the pursuit of the Tang Dynasty appeared blooming period, but it is only short-lived history of view. “Going out” approach is only to please men tend to indulge the flesh master power elite, and another on the social status of the call right then quickly lost in the patriarchal customs and traditions down.

Hu Fu Pop
Tang Dynasty is China’s political, economic highly developed arts and cultural prosperity of the times, is the splendor of feudal culture of the era. Tang Wei and Sui unified chaotic disunited, the establishment of a unified, powerful nation on foreign trade developed, the great development of productive forces, a long time peace and prosperity. Especially when the Tang Dynasty to become Asia’s economic and cultural center of the nation period, it is China’s most glorious page in the history of culture.

The so-called barbarian, is on the northern ethnic Han people a call, we are here to talk about history, time being retained at the title. Comes with the barbarian culture, especially Hu Fu – this includes India, Persia, and many other ethnic groups, including ethnic attire, so Tang Dynasty women refreshing. Then, like a gust of wind swept through the Central Plains Zhucheng Hu Fu hot, especially for Chang’an and Luoyang Sheng, whose jewelry is also the most heathen colors. Yuan Zhen’s poem: “Since Hu Ji from dust, hair vellus Xingshan Montreal Luo, female women learn Hu Hu makeup, Kabuki into Hu Hu Yue ….. sound works and Hu Hu Hu Ji tone makeup, actually fifty years Fun Park. “Emperor loves dance Hu Yue Hu, Yang, Wu Lushan are dance experts, Bai” Everlasting Regret “in the” Soul of Hero “is the kind of dance HU. Otherwise muddy off dance, dance deadwood, Hu Han eddies and other right music, dance, costumes and other arts have a greater impact. Written at that time, “study tour Chenqie everyone turn” exciting scene is also conceivable. Yao Runeng “Lushan deeds” in mind, “Tempo beginning, the swim cap Wu Shishu good clothes, the woman then the hairpin step shake, clothing system Gum sleeves narrow.” Hu Fu on the image of a woman found in stone line drawing or other monuments . Than the typical person, that is worn on the muddy hat, dressed in tight sleeves lapel tight robe, under the trousers, waist and foot climbing boots. “Yu Fu Zhi” cloud, “and after the clothes were men and boots such as Xi, Khitan’s clothing” When for such attire.
“New Tang Five Kingdoms” is credited with “Tempo beginning, the nobility and the Idea is good for the Hu Fu Hu Hat” facts. Tang called “Hu Fu,” not only refers to the ethnic clothing, also includes a large number of exotic clothing. Tang is the history of the development of China’s feudal society the peak period, when the capital Chang’an, not only is China – the economic and cultural center, but also the world-famous city and cultural center of things. According to historical records, and the Tang government between countries, there have been more than 300, at the time of Chang’an City is not only inhabited by the Han people, the Uighur people, Kucha people Nanzhao people, there are a lot of foreigners, such as Japan people, Silla (Korea) people, Persia (Iran), Arabs, Vietnamese and Indians and so on.

Chinese people from alien cultures get a lot of useful things, Hu Fu popular in the Central Plains, is a concrete reflection. And more than ever, Hu Fu Tang advocating a notable feature is that women with Hu Fu are many. This phenomenon is closely related with the prevailing cultural life, especially Hu dance pop, change of clothing for women brought a great impact.
