The costumes of the Ming Dynasty belonged to Zhou Han and Tang Song. They bring together the great achievements of China's costumes in past dynasties. They like the new and hate the old, and are good at innovation and evolution. Shortly after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, it was forbidden to wear Hu clothes, which restored the costume system of the Tang Dynasty and formed a costume different from that of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang even imposed strict class restrictions on the costumes, materials and colors of officials, nobles and civilians. Clothing styles mostly imitate the Tang and Song Dynasties, usually with right lapels. According to different social status, it is divided into women's wear and general women's wear. Women's life clothes are divided into formal clothes and regular clothes.
The rulers of the Ming dynasty had strict rules on the clothes of civilians. If they violate or exceed the system, they will be severely punished. In addition to the boundary between the government and the people, there is also the difference between goods and cheap. Businessmen in the Ming dynasty were considered inferior, which was also reflected in the clothing system. Farmers' houses can use silk thread and silk fabrics, while entrepreneurs can only use silk fabrics, not silk and yarn.
Dong Jin, a liberal scholar, participated in the study of ancient Chinese costumes. Their clothes can only be light colors, such as purple, green and hearts, but not red, green, yellow crow and blue silk. Its basic form is roughly the same as that of the Song Dynasty. The back styles of ordinary women's casual wear are right collar, facing plate and small sleeve. "Most people generally wear black cloth robes, unique spring and summer robes, double autumn robes and cotton-padded clothes in winter. They can only choose to change black and white clothes all year round. Therefore, the clothes of ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty were mostly white pants, blue pants and cotton-padded jacket and green cloth.
