The Style Of Water And Clothing In The Past Years

Comb the pan head, wrap a headscarf, put on the sweater, and cut down the crotch pants.

The pedal shoe embroidered shoes...

This is the clothing worn by middle-aged and elderly women in Luzhi, Che Fang, Sheng Pu, Wei Ting and other areas in the eastern part of Suzhou. They are called "Suzhou minorities" because they are very unique.

According to legend, this has the characteristics of strong Jiangnan Water Village.

It still retains hundreds of years ago. The skirt of the waist is knee length and the skirt is very thin. There are different craft decorations on the pleat and the skirt. The two ends of the skirt are fluffy and fringed, and echo with the tassels on Baotou.

The color of clothing varies with age. In the girlhood, bright colors are the main colors. Married women are relatively plain colors such as moon white and light blue, while the older ones use dark blue and gray.

And this dress is hand stitched by women.

This garment structure is also combined with labor needs. When wearing this kind of skirt, the waist is not susceptible to wind chill. When standing, it can increase the strength of the waist. The lower hem is bigger, which is beneficial to the operation of the paddy field, which is both beautiful and practical.

Hu aunt of Banqiao Village in Luzhi walked along the streets of the ancient town with her daughter Xiao Zhou.

Aunt Hu, wearing a black Baotou towel, wearing a dark blue skirt and carrying a bamboo basket, is very elegant and dignified on the road, and is very well coordinated with the street view of the ancient town, which has won the eye of many tourists.

Aunt Hu said she grew up in this dress, and now she likes to wear it when she is old.

Aunt Hu, who was more than 10 years old, studied splicing shirts and embroidered shoes and made clothes on her own.

She said, now that the eyes are old and the hands are getting stiffer, it will take a lot of time to make a suit.

Xiao Zhou wears a T-shirt and jeans and stands beside aunt Hu to laugh.

She said she had only passed through this strange dress once, and when she was very young, she had stitched a piece of it for herself, when she was very happy and had new clothes on.

I did not expect to go to school excitedly, but I was surrounded by a group of classmates, who, like a strange looking person, came home crying with shame.

。

Aunt Hu said that only fifty or sixty year old women in the village wear such clothes, and middle-aged women aged 40 or so have rarely worn them. Young people do not think such clothes are rustic and no one wants to wear them.

Women's clothing in Watertown is a special scenic spot on the streets of Luzhi, and has become a characteristic tourist product of Luzhi.

Tourists who have seen the women's clothing in Luzhi's Watertown do not hesitate to praise this folk costume.

Mr. Pan has a special liking for women's clothing in the water village. Every time he goes to Luzhi, he always goes to the street to find the floating scenery.

He said without worry that only the tourist attractions can see such a dress. Only fifty or sixty years old women usually wear it. Will the women's clothing that has been handed down for hundreds of years will disappear from people's sight?

It is gratifying to note that recently, the town of Luzhi held the first time for the first time.

In the cultural performance competition, 30 performances teams from nearly 350 women from Luzhi villages and towns entered the competition. They put on traditional water village women's costumes and performed programs such as Lian Xiang, flower basket and waist dance.

It is said that such activities are carried out to promote the traditional culture of women's clothing in watertowns, so that more local women love this dress and make more tourists understand this culture.
