The inheritance and innovation of culture are essential driving forces for social development. The evolution of fashion is also a reflection of people's pursuit of beauty and the continuous updating of aesthetic concepts. As a Hanfu enthusiast, I feel a great sense of responsibility towards the protection and inheritance of traditional culture. Therefore, I have conceived a unique way of wearing Hanfu – mixing Ming Dynasty Hanfu with Song Dynasty Hanfu. By blending these two styles, we can showcase the diversity and charm of Hanfu.
First Part: Introduction to the Characteristics of Ming Dynasty Hanfu and Song Dynasty Hanfu
Ming Dynasty Hanfu, as the traditional attire of the Han nationality during the Ming Dynasty, holds an important place in the history of Hanfu development. It emphasizes domestic production and popularity, advocating a style that is simple, dignified, and generous. Its characteristics include exquisite tailoring, bright colors, and delicate embroidery. The robes have wide sleeves and long lengths, with rich and varied colors, and the details reflect meticulous craftsmanship and skill. On the other hand, Song Dynasty Hanfu developed during the Song Dynasty and is characterized by its elegant and graceful appearance, light and airy material, and body-hugging cut. Song Dynasty Hanfu pursues the beauty of concave and convex lines, focusing on the comfort and adaptability of clothing, showcasing a magnificent and unique temperament.
Second Part: The Effect of Mixing Ming Dynasty Hanfu and Song Dynasty Hanfu
The fusion of Ming Dynasty Hanfu and Song Dynasty Hanfu combines the solemn simplicity of Ming Dynasty Hanfu with the elegance and splendor of Song Dynasty Hanfu, presenting a unique Hanfu wearing style. Based on Ming Dynasty Hanfu, we apply the design philosophy of Song Dynasty Hanfu, changing the shape of the collar and the design of the cuffs, making the overall appearance lighter and more graceful. At the same time, adjustments have been made in the selection of fabrics and colors, using lightweight and breathable materials, with softer and purer colors, to highlight the comfort and texture of the clothing.
Third Part: Demonstration of Wearing Ming Dynasty Hanfu and Song Dynasty Hanfu Together
1. Men's Outfit Demonstration:
The upper garment of Ming Dynasty Hanfu continues the slim fit of Song Dynasty Hanfu, designing the collar into a slender straight collar, enhancing the vertical visual effect. For the lower garment, choose Song Dynasty Hanfu pants, combining the loose design of the Ming Dynasty, making it more comfortable and free. In terms of color and detail decoration, the colors and details of Ming Dynasty Hanfu can be chosen to highlight the unique charm of this mixed wearing style.
2. Women's Outfit Demonstration:
The women's Ming Dynasty Hanfu maintains the traditional skirt robe design but uses the embroidery and trim techniques of Song Dynasty Hanfu for embellishment, highlighting both the dignity and generosity of Ming Dynasty Hanfu and adding a touch of romance and refinement. The cutting of the skirt robe can also draw inspiration from the waistline of Song Dynasty Hanfu, making the overall appearance slimmer. In terms of accessories, choose Song Dynasty Hanfu hair ornaments and jewelry to present a style that is both classical and modern.
Fourth Part: Promotion and Development of Ming Dynasty Hanfu and Song Dynasty Hanfu
The mixed wearing style of Ming Dynasty Hanfu and Song Dynasty Hanfu can meet the appreciation and expression of traditional culture while also adapting to the aesthetic needs of modern society. By promoting this mixed wearing style, we can show more people the diversity and charm of Hanfu, enhancing its fashion attributes and popularity. During promotion, we can organize Hanfu fashion shows and host themed events to attract more young people to participate and inherit and promote Hanfu culture.
Conclusion:
The mixed wearing style of Ming Dynasty Hanfu and Song Dynasty Hanfu is a reinterpretation and innovation of traditional Han nationality attire, demonstrating an attempt at the diversity of Hanfu. Through this unique way of wearing, we combine Hanfu with fashion, reflecting the value of traditional culture while meeting modern people's pursuit of beauty. I hope this mixed wearing style will gain recognition and inheritance from more people, allowing Hanfu, this splendid traditional culture, to shine brilliantly in modern society.
