What does a real dragon robe look like?
Nowadays, harem dramas in the Qing Dynasty are very popular. There are almost one popular drama, which earns the producers a lot of money.
However, in many film and television dramas, they dress the emperor indiscriminately. For example, the number and style of dragon patterns on the clothes have serious flaws, or the emperor wears a dragon robe but a court hat. These The dressing scene is simply irrelevant, and it is in sharp contrast with the strict dressing rules of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
The emperors of the Qing Dynasty were very particular about their clothes. It was absolutely appropriate to wear the right clothes on any occasion.
The emperor's clothes are generally divided into livery clothes, auspicious clothes, regular clothes, walking clothes, rain clothes and Yanfu.
Livery is the highest-level attire for the emperor, followed by auspicious clothes. Regular clothes are the clothes between livery and formal clothes, which can be worn on daily basis.
The walking clothes were worn by the emperor when he went hunting, while the rain clothes, as the name implies, were worn by the emperor when it rained or snowed.
The emperor's dragon robe that we usually talk about is just one type of auspicious clothing.
We often hear the word "dragon robe" in the lines of Qing palace operas. No matter what the costume is, it is called dragon robe. This kind of behavior is very unscientific and very imprecise.
At the same time, the patterns painted and embroidered on the dragon robes of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty were also very sophisticated.
Normally, there will be nine golden dragons on the dragon robe, one at the two ends has a serious attitude and a serious face; the other eight move in all directions, making the embroidery very dynamic.
At the same time, in addition to the nine golden dragons, there must be other patterns on the dragon robe to highlight it.
Among these patterns, the most important one is the colorful clouds, which have auspicious meanings. The colorful clouds embroidered on the robes contain the good intentions of good luck and good luck.
In addition to dragons and colorful clouds, there will also be other patterns on the dragon robe, and even bats that many people don't like are on it. These bats are usually white, and the abbreviation of "white bat" is " "Red bat" agrees with "Hongfu", which means Hongfu all over the sky, and also means wonderful things.
It is not difficult to see from the pattern of the dragon robe that the Qing Dynasty was relatively protective of the seriousness of the emperor.
At the same time, the Qing Dynasty implemented a very cruel crown and service system, whose systematicness and completeness astonished future generations.
This system strictly limits the colors and patterns of the clothing of officials and ordinary people at all levels. Once it is found that illegal patterns or colors appear on their clothing, they may lose their heads.
In addition, making dragon robes is also extremely luxurious. According to records, making a dragon robe not only uses silk and satin from various parties, but also requires skilled craftsmen from all walks of life to work hard for two years. Only then can it be completed.
Now that you are tired of watching, here is a joke to cheer you up:
Turn off the sun
My little nephew loved to sleep when he was a child. The sun hit his face. He screamed: "Turn off the light! Turn off the light!" After telling him it was the sun, he turned over and shouted impatiently: "Oh, turn off the sun!"
