章節(jié)摘錄

　　Clothes are mainly used to cover thebody， for decoration and against thecold. But the gorgeous ancient Chinesecostume also embodied the ritual sys-tem of life with its strict hierarchy andstrong spirit of unification. In the pastdynasties definite and strict regula-tions were provided for the costumeof people ranging from emperors andofficials to ordinary persons. Everyoneshould be dressed in conformity withhis own status and so it would be easyto distinguish， from the costume， mon-arch and subject， the male and thefemale， master and servant， and offi-cials and common people. Therefore，to Chinese people， clothing could alsobe taken as a ritual expression ratherthan the mere embodiment of freedomand comfort.

Rooted in nature-worship， thisconcept had a profound impact on thesubsequent clothing system. After theclass society began， with the formationand establishment of PatriarchalThe costume of the emperors of Qing Dynasty， inyellow color and dragon designs that are exclusivelyused.
