Basic necessities of life
，
It is the most basic part of people's lives, in which people dress up
It can make people intuitively feel the taste of this person, and clothing is also an important factor affecting people's temperament and appearance.
Just as the so-called "people rely on clothing, Buddha relies on gold clothing" is the truth, nowadays there are many wearing bloggers on the Internet, through the matching of clothing colors and styles, highlighting different dressing styles.
People can pass through different costumes
To convey different messages to the outside world, the recent popular floral skirt can make people look more gentle, and the previous popular cargo pants
It is full of "royal sister style", and female friends look very handsome when they wear it.
However, these clothes are relatively modern styles, and many of the elements are imported from abroad.
The traditional costumes of ancient mainland China are relatively conservative, basically long skirts, which also has a lot to do with people's ideological concepts at that time.
Because in ancient times men felt
Women should not go out of the door, do not go out of the second door, stay at home to take care of the family, and can not be in contact with other members of the opposite sex in the absence of their husbands.
There are many traditional costume lovers in the mainland, and it is precisely because of their liking that the traditional costumes of the Chinese style can once again show a strong vitality and will not be forgotten by future generations.
However, the style of clothing varied slightly from dynasty to dynasty, so true lovers of traditional costumes pay special attention to the details.
There are two main ways to obtain relevant information, one is the record of related ancient books, and the other is the direct excavation of cultural relics.
When the ancients were buried, there would be many funerary items, including clothing, but many of the burial sites were unearthed with elegant and luxurious clothes. In the "Tomb of the Southern Song Dynasty Celebrities" found in Fujian Province, a considerable number of "intimate clothes" were found, and the lightest clothes were 16.7 grams, making up for the gaps in related aspects.
I. The "intimate clothes" of the ancient tombs of the Southern Song Dynasty
Located in Xindian Town, Jin'an District, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, the tomb was discovered by archaeologists around the 1970s
。
The number of clothes in it is even more gratifying, because the number of clothes in Huang Sheng's tomb is more than three hundred pieces, which is beyond the reach of the ancient tombs found before.
And there are many styles and types of these clothes, and the materials used to make clothes cover almost all the precious fabrics of ancient times.
It contains a large number of silk fabrics, which is undoubtedly a major discovery for the research of ancient silk on the mainland. The fabrics of these clothes include aya, luo, silk, satin, yarn, juan, qi, etc.; and the style of clothes covers all the styles common in ancient times, including: robes, clothes, vests, pants, skirts, etc.
In addition to the common clothing, there are many close-fitting small objects are also covered, such as bandeaus, bibs, and bibs
towel
, sachets, purses, sanitary belts, shrouds, etc.
Especially the bandeau, which is the first ancient bandeau unearthed in the mainland, is actually not much different from the bandeau commonly worn by modern women.
Of course, archaeologists do not care about how precious these fabrics themselves are, they are more concerned about the production process of these fabrics and costumes.
Second, the superb production process of silk woven items
The silk fabrics excavated from Huang Sheng's tomb can reflect the costume making process of the Southern Song Dynasty, most of which are relatively well preserved, and only a few pieces of clothing have been carbonized.
Leaving aside the preciousness of the fabrics themselves, the decorations on the costumes alone can be dazzling. These include a variety of decorative techniques such as illuminated gold, printing gold, pasting gold, painting, embroidery, etc.
More importantly, this batch of unearthed clothing covers almost all the embroidery techniques of the Southern Song Dynasty, so the embroidery techniques of these clothes are also one of the most prominent features.
The embroidery techniques used in the clothing include more than ten kinds of stitching methods such as needles, needle laying, needle picking, needle grabbing, etc., which are particularly similar to the stitching methods of Su embroidery, and friends who know Su embroidery should be able to imagine the exquisiteness of these clothes.
Third, the lightest clothing is only 16.7 grams
Among the more than three hundred pieces of clothing, experts also found a particularly light clothing, which is a dark peony flower vest, and the whole dress weighs only 16.7 grams.
We all know that silk clothes are lighter to pick up and more delicate to the touch, but this vest is incredibly light. That is to say, the weight of this vest is less than half two, and a small matchbox can even hold two such vests.
In addition, most of the clothes unearthed in the tomb are embroidered with beautiful flowers, covering various flowers such as peonies, hibiscus flowers, camellias, plum blossoms, lotuses, roses, etc., showing the particularly exquisite jacquard craftsmanship of the Song Dynasty, and the sense of layering is very distinct.
Thus
The development of the garment industry during the Southern Song Dynasty
It has reached a relatively high level, even in modern society, these costumes are no less exquisite than international brands.
Fourth, the life of the tomb owner Huang Sheng
Maybe many people will be curious
Exactly what kind of women
How can there be so many exquisite clothes? It can be seen that Huang Sheng's family must be either rich or expensive, and in fact, it is true.
She was a noblewoman of the Zhao clan during the Song Dynasty, and her father was Huang Pu, the head of Fuzhou. His father had a smooth career in his life, and he was an official in Quanzhou Zhizhou, and he was also the local tiju city shipping department.
Huang Sheng married Zhao Youjun at the age of 16, but unfortunately, she died at the age of 17.
Because Huang Sheng's status is relatively noble, when she was buried, her father prepared a lot of exquisite and gorgeous costumes and rare treasures for her.
Perhaps these clothes are nothing to Huang Sheng, but they are also extremely precious treasures for future generations.
After Huang Sheng's death, Zhao and Junyou
marry
His second wife, Li Shi, also lived happily after marriage. Later, after the death of Zhao and Jun and Li, they were all buried with Huang Sheng, which means that Huang Sheng's tomb was actually a cemetery where three people were buried together.
However, the bones of Zhao and Jun and Li have long been decomposed, and only the bones of Huang Sheng are still relatively well preserved, so people habitually call this cemetery "Huang Sheng Tomb".
epilogue
The funerary of this "Southern Song Dynasty celebrity"
Let us intuitively feel the exquisite ancient costumes, and the fabrics used to make these clothes are also more expensive.
Both from its historical value
、
Or from the value of its materials, these clothes unearthed from Huang Sheng's tomb are worthy of careful study. I also hope that the beauty of Chinese clothing can be well inherited, and do not let it become history forever, because these cultures are our pride.
