The introduction of Mongolian clothing is as follows:
1. Types and characteristics of clothing: Robe: The main body of Mongolian clothing is the long robe, also known as the Mongolian robe. The long robe has a wide body and long sleeves, often in red, yellow, or dark blue. The hem of both men's and women's robes does not have a slit. Robes not only adapt to the climate change in the Mongolian Plateau, but also facilitate activities such as horseback riding. Belt: Belt is an important component of Mongolian clothing, made of silk or cotton fabric measuring three to four meters in length, often made of red or green silk. Men often hang knives, fire sickles, snuff boxes and other accessories on their waistbands, which are both practical and decorative. Boots: Mongolian boots are finely crafted and come in two types: leather boots and cloth boots. There are exquisite patterns on Mongolian boots and uppers, which are both warm and beautiful. Jewelry: Hanging jewelry and wearing hats are traditional customs of the Mongolian ethnic group. The diverse materials of jewelry, such as agate, jade, coral, pearls, silver, etc., make Mongolian jewelry rich and luxurious.
2. Regional differences: Mongolian costumes vary in style due to regional differences. For example, the Mongolians in the Khorchin and Karaqin regions often wear long robes that are wide and straight to the heel, with slits on both sides; The Mongolians on the Xilingol grassland, on the other hand, wear Mongolian robes with wide, narrow sleeves and uncut borders. Hats from different regions also have local characteristics, such as the Mongolian hats in Inner Mongolia and Qinghai, which have high tops and flat edges. The inside is made of white felt, and the outside is decorated with leather or dyed purple green felt for decoration.
3. Cultural and historical background: The origin of Mongolian clothing can be traced back to the distant prehistoric period, which is in line with the clothing of ancient northern nomadic peoples in China. Mongolian clothing not only has practical functions of keeping warm and cold, but also reflects the aesthetic pursuit and cultural traditions of the Mongolian people. The colors and patterns of Mongolian clothing often use bright and shiny colors, such as red, yellow, blue, etc., which make people feel bright and happy both physically and mentally. At the same time, Mongolian clothing also advocates pure and bright colors such as white and sky blue, which complement the natural environment of the Mongolian plateau.
Mongolian clothing, with its unique types, regional differences, and profound cultural and historical background, has become a beautiful flower in the Chinese national clothing culture.
