An Attempt to Analyze the Implicitness of the Aesthetic Features of Chinese Art: Taking the Aesthetic Features of Women's Clothing in the Flourishing Period of Tang Dynasty as an Example

摘要

Tang Dynasty, at the height of power and splendor in the Chinese Feudal Society, had not only a stable political situation, a prosperous economy, and a brilliant culture, but also had clothing which was splendid, rich, colourful, free-spirited, luxurious and liberated. The strong ethos and the joyous creativeness of Tang Clothing were mainly embodied in Women's Clothing. Females in Tang Dynasty, especially those lived in the flourishing period, had their daily attires bold, luxurious, and tailored to highlight the beauty of the body, and in their way they abandoned the affected and restrained clothing style of former times and replaced it with a lively, jubilate, liberated and magnanimous clothing style. The new style presented an implicitness of openness: such as the reticent and elegant Ruqun dress, and the masculine dressing of "dressing as man and Hu clothing", both of which reflected the ample growth of dressing in this open country and the unique aesthetic fashion formed.
