Since ancient times, Co

13、nfucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, Islam and Christianity have in this land of mutual collision, and communicate together to jointly form a subtle, inclusive for the characteristics of the Chinese culture, feudal political system with a long reign, to build a highly developed cultural system. In contrast

14、, western culture is based on the Nile civilization in North Africa around the Mediterranean, the two river valley civilization in West Asia, the Aegean civilization and the ancient Greek and ancient civilizations in southern Europe. After the great migration from the north of Rome, After the mediev

15、al development and Byzantine Culture, especially the development of Christian culture, Western European countries formed a completely different Christian culture circle from far east China. In the cultural circle in the survival of many races, there are different cultural character, mutual collision

16、, communication and integration between these cultures, formed a vibrant, aggressive personality trait. China culture compared with western culture, the former is booming in a relatively fixed geographical environment, has relatively single and lively personality characteristics, the nature of an in

17、dividual occurs; the latter across Asia, Africa and Europe on three continents, in a broad geographical environment, by a variety of civilizations mixed, alternating control and influence, with ethnic migration, cultural movement formed, with mixed characteristics, the nature of a system.2.2 differe

18、nces in religious background The Western clothing culture seeks the law of nature. The West emphasizes the separation between the subjective world and the objective world, and makes it clear that the subjective is me and the objective is the object. The Western rational observation of the world and

19、explore the law, form a kind to obtain the truth of traditional pursuit of natural law, thus showing a rational or scientific attitude in the unified clothing, clothing and the environment is emphasized in the harmony with nature, emphasis on natural science knowledge, the development of the clothin

20、g is full of it to grasp the objective law of clothing, clothing of the basic traits. Western clothing culture emphasizes the mankind body. The development of clothing in the West shows that it serves for the beauty of human body. Its role is to fully show the beauty of human body and make up for th

21、e defects of human body. Clothing concept takes the pursuit of human body as the core.

The most significant feature is to use clothing to highlight personality, display personality, and use clothing to

23、express the affirmation and attention to personal value. In the context of religious culture, ancient Western clothing has a theological point that transcends the needs of the body. Confucianism for a dress or a concept that Taoism concept, the ornamental and the combined plain properties is beneath

24、 the coarse home-spun,one may discover talent and ability. Both are elegant and solemn attitudes towards clothes. China has always paid attention to the etiquette and education. The dress embodies the self-cultivation of a person and the degree of respect for the people to see. If a person exposed s

25、kin can go out, is known as indecent or abject people. This is particularly evident in ancient women. Women in feudal society lack the power to defend themselves with dignity. In a period of time or in some areas, they go out and have their face. In addition, China pays attention to the unity of nat

26、ure and man and is devoted to the achievement of people With the fusion of nature, the clothes are both flat and elegant, and the gender differences are not obvious.3. Comparison of clothing culture3.1 different material culture The original social material culture from eating animal flesh raw and d

27、rinking its blood, human beings created different dress culture in different geographical environment. Chinese people began to use animal fiber such as GE, linen, ramie and other animal fibers for weaving very early, and began to raise silkworms and weave 6900 years ago. Silk is a great contribution

28、 of the Chinese people to the life of human clothing. Without the elegant silk, it is impossible to talk about it. Compared with the developed silk culture in China, ancient Egypt is mainly flax culture, the two river basins are mainly wool culture, and India is the birthplace of cotton culture. Anc

29、ient Greece and ancient Rome did not create anything in terms of clothing materials. They inherited the ancient civilization on the Mediterranean coast, that is, linen culture and wool culture. As for the silk, though the Silk Road in the Far East has seen the silk style from the Far East as early a

30、s the BC, ancient Rome did not understand the mystery of the beautiful fabric for a long time. Until the year 552, the Byzantine Empire sent two missionaries to Chinese China understand words, to know the secret of silk, a century later, in the Byzantine to weave silk, and the Europeans themselves c

31、an weave silk, until the 13-14 century Italy after the renaissance.3.2 different sense of clothing function For the function of clothing, Chinese and Westerners have clear differences in understanding and focus on: since ancient times, Chinese attaches great importance to the social ethic function o

33、s and rulers have attached great importance to wear costumes to unify peoples thoughts, not to mind taking the trouble to revise repeatedly clothing system, in order to regulate the behavior of all walks of life to the country, . In the western countries cannot Chinese and compared, although the Rom

34、ans had paid great attention to clothes said the identity, the feudal era has continued to launch a variety of clothing bans, but most of them are some of the luxury ban, there are few like Chinese fully put clothing social function into full play, and more attention is paid to the value of the weal

Western costumes are mainly wrapped in unshaped clothing and pre - Open semi - shaped clothing, emphasizing and protruding the bodys lines Beauty, such as tight bras, buttocks and so on. In the Rococo period, in order to reflect the delicate and to

38、uching waist, women will never mature girl Start their day and night. So the Western men and women in many of the paintings and films we see are daring. And the figure is also more prominent. China dress on the overall dignified, traditional culture for more outlandish costume rejection. If there is

Red, symbolizing the sun, fire and blood, is also a symbol of

42、joy, so it is also an auspicious color. Black and white, it is representative of the funeral. Since ancient times, Baishi said, black and white are the color of kyrgyzstan. In the west, the opposite is the opposite. In the western culture, white represents the supreme purity and the symbol of the no

43、ble. The aristocratic women we see are all dressed in white. And black in English culture also symbolizes the nobility, the black velvet and the black velvet. Black satin is also very popular among the aristocratic women, and the black suit is a great representative of elegance and dignity.3.4 diffe

44、rent patterns of culture In Chinese culture, the dragon and Phoenix are the symbol of class status and the famous totem. It represents the supremacy of rank, solemn and majestic.

47、attern and decoration luxurious and beautiful flower pattern, compared to the Rococo period, more ornate, and due to the re cognition of the world and its pagan mythology, with the lion and eagle pattern.4.dress differences 4.1 different dress concepts In the history of Chinas thousands of years of

48、history, in the relatively stable, autistic and conservative state, Confucianism and Daos doctrines and beliefs complement each other and become the mainstream of ancient philosophy. Our ancestors created profound undress clothing culture, formed a unique aesthetic and philosophical concepts, differ

49、ent from the west, East and other ethnic groups are different. Thus, in womens clothes shown on the form of a China style air and charm, revealing the potential of national spirit and culture of the inner soul. It reflects the China women Xian good tolerance, natural simplicity, indifferent personal

50、ity and moral realm, and a graceful, reserved, Sophie Yu Gang, color charm temperament and personality quiet. The Confucian standard of Virtue and rite to standardize the dress. Confucianism strives for the ethical norms of the society and the combination of the psychological desire of the personali
