China’s traditional costumes mirror, from a cultural perspective, the Chinese society and the mental outlook of the Chinese people in different periods of history.
While an important carrier of the traditional Chinese culture in its entirety, traditional costumes themselves became a complete cultural system, in fact a unique system of Oriental culture, through development over 5,000 years. The book illustrates the history and development of Traditional Chinese costumes with exquisite photographs.
