But, next we're going to give you more than barbecue, because we are going to visit the Mongolian plains. Get ready to be entertained by three Mongolian warriors as they ride their horses off onto the horizon. Ladies and gentlemen, we give you Mongolian spirit. 下面请大家欣赏蒙古大汉。 Beauty through the dynasties. 好,下面让我们欢迎汉服秀千年之美。 Alright, so first up, let's go all the way back to 2500 years ago. The Greek philosopher Socrates and the Chinese philosopher Confucius both lived in this era. This outfit is from the Warring States period. It's a long full body robe called Shen Yi, which means deep garment in Chinese. In English, it means wrapping the body deep within the clothes. This design reflects Confucian ideals, which is modesty, harmony, and order. The Shen Yi style was a popular basic form of clothing that was worn by both genders and people of all social classes, from the emperor to average commoners. That's popular during the Qin and the subsequent Han dynasties, which spanned between 221 BCE to 220 CE. Unlike the Shen Yi we saw earlier, which drapes naturally to both sides of the body, the bottom half of this Shen Yi is constructed with more fabric that folds over to the right side and is secured by a sash belt. It gives this Shen Yi a more body-hugging shape and also prevents any unwanted exposure. After the Han dynasty collapsed in year 220, Han fu evolved from a more formal structured style to looser, more graceful garments that reflected people's love for freedom and nature. Clothing became more airy and flowing, with big wide sleeves, especially among scholars and elite. There are exquisite embroidery styles that often incorporate dragons and phoenix motifs, and multiple layers of robes were fashionable, sometimes sheer or light, to resemble the clothing styles worn by immortals. After the Three Kingdoms period, the Shen Yi style gradually declined in popularity. It was replaced by Ru Quan, a two-piece garment that consists of a top and a skirt. You can still see big wide sleeves and interesting motif patterns on the clothing. The Tang dynasty was also very open and receptive to assimilating to the cultures of its neighboring countries, which mostly lived a nomadic lifestyle. This dress with a low-cut neckline is an example of nomadic style clothing. The Tang dynasty lasted 289 years, and people's preference on beauty standards inevitably evolved along the way. It went from favoring both men and women, adults and children, emperors who wore it in the imperial court and also wore it in the hunting field, and ladies who wore it at home or going out. It's the same style of round-collar robe, but in different length. After a chaotic period in war, China was reunited again by the Song dynasty. Compared to the bold and vibrant styles of the Tang dynasty, Song dynasty clothing returned to more conservative and graceful aesthetics. It's a reflection of the cultural shift toward intellectual and moral discipline. Garments became more narrow and fitted, with tighter sleeves and straight cuts. The second outfit has a cross-collared top that's folded over to the right. It's paired with a long pleated skirt and another outer skirt. The decorative outer skirt is constructed with only two pieces of fabric. Feizi is usually a long straight outer coat with side slits, but it can come in different length. It can end around the waist, hip, mid-thigh, below the knee, or all the way to the floor. It could be worn both casually or formally, depending on the fabric. During the Yuan dynasty, Mongolian-style clothing made its way inside the Hanfu system as well. For example, the robes from the Yuan dynasty were originally designed with riding and hunting in mind. This style was later heavily used in the Ming dynasty and worn by emperors, princes, court officials, and guards alike. Ming dynasty clothing style can be described as dignified, formal, and rigorous. Women's Hanfu clothing is more conservative. Therefore, women's attire tends to have more area of the body covered. It was also believed that the climate was cooler during the Ming dynasty. The model here is wearing a long vest on the outside called Bi Jia.
