00:01:51,133 --> 00:01:54,400
3.1 The Qin Dynasty: Continuing the
2
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,400
Preference for Black
3
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,933
The Qin dynasty continued the earlier
4
00:01:58,933 --> 00:02:01,433
cosmological belief that dark black
5
00:02:01,433 --> 00:02:02,800
represented heaven.
6
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,733
Black was therefore elevated
7
00:02:04,733 --> 00:02:07,466
from a ritual color into a powerful symbol
8
00:02:07,466 --> 00:02:09,966
of imperial authority and the Mandate
9
00:02:09,966 --> 00:02:10,600
of Heaven.
10
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,133
From imperial ceremonial clothing
11
00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:15,733
to military armor, dark colors became
12
00:02:15,733 --> 00:02:18,733
closely associated with power, legitimacy,
13
00:02:18,733 --> 00:02:20,500
and political authority.
14
00:02:20,500 --> 00:02:22,866
Black was no longer simply an aesthetic
15
00:02:22,866 --> 00:02:23,566
preference.
16
00:02:23,566 --> 00:02:25,566
It became a visual language through
17
00:02:25,566 --> 00:02:27,233
which the new unified dynasty expressed
18
00:02:27,233 --> 00:02:29,300
dignity and sovereignty.
19
00:02:29,300 --> 00:02:31,666
The Qin dynasty also inherited many
20
00:02:31,666 --> 00:02:34,000
elements of the Zhou ritual system.
21
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,066
In terms of wedding attire,
22
00:02:36,066 --> 00:02:38,800
garment forms and ceremonial colors
23
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,100
maintained a high degree of continuity
24
00:02:41,100 --> 00:02:42,833
with earlier traditions.
25
00:02:42,833 --> 00:02:46,233
This continuation of established ritual
26
00:02:46,233 --> 00:02:48,066
conventions helped preserve social order
27
00:02:48,066 --> 00:02:50,800
and provided the newly unified empire
28
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,966
with a shared cultural framework.
29
00:02:52,966 --> 00:02:55,400
For this reason, Qin wedding customs did
30
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,300
not represent a complete break
31
00:02:57,300 --> 00:02:58,633
from the Zhou dynasty.
32
00:02:58,633 --> 00:03:01,700
Instead, they extended earlier ritual
33
00:03:01,700 --> 00:03:04,500
traditions while placing them within a
34
00:03:04,500 --> 00:03:08,000
stronger centralized imperial system.
35
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,100
3.2 The Han Dynasty: Wedding Attire
36
00:03:10,100 --> 00:03:11,466
Becomes More Diverse
37
00:03:11,466 --> 00:03:13,933
By the Han dynasty, social stability
38
00:03:13,933 --> 00:03:17,033
and economic prosperity encouraged greater
39
00:03:17,033 --> 00:03:18,600
diversity in clothing.
40
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,233
Wedding attire gradually moved beyond a
41
00:03:21,233 --> 00:03:23,100
single ceremonial function.
42
00:03:23,100 --> 00:03:25,633
It began to combine ritual regulation
43
00:03:25,633 --> 00:03:27,366
with everyday aesthetics,
44
00:03:27,366 --> 00:03:29,933
bringing a stronger sense of human life
45
00:03:29,933 --> 00:03:32,566
and personal beauty into traditional
46
00:03:32,566 --> 00:03:33,700
wedding culture.
47
00:03:33,700 --> 00:03:36,466
One important form was the upper garment
48
00:03:36,466 --> 00:03:38,033
and lower skirt system.
49
00:03:38,033 --> 00:03:41,400
The upper and lower parts were constructed
50
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:42,666
separately, with the upper garment
51
00:03:42,666 --> 00:03:45,133
symbolizing heaven and the lower garment
52
00:03:45,133 --> 00:03:46,266
symbolizing earth.
53
00:03:46,266 --> 00:03:49,066
This structure preserved ancient ritual
54
00:03:49,066 --> 00:03:51,500
ideas and reflected continued respect
55
00:03:51,500 --> 00:03:53,900
for cosmic and ceremonial order.
56
00:03:53,900 --> 00:03:56,933
A second important form was the deep robe.
57
00:03:56,933 --> 00:03:58,166
In this garment, the upper
58
00:03:58,166 --> 00:04:00,566
and lower sections were joined
59
00:04:00,566 --> 00:04:02,200
into one continuous form.
60
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,533
It became one of the major ceremonial
61
00:04:04,533 --> 00:04:06,300
garments of the Han dynasty.
62
00:04:06,300 --> 00:04:08,433
Its construction was associated
63
00:04:08,433 --> 00:04:11,233
with Confucian ideas of proportion,
64
00:04:11,233 --> 00:04:12,266
balance, and harmony,
65
00:04:12,266 --> 00:04:13,966
combining ritual discipline
66
00:04:13,966 --> 00:04:15,733
with aesthetic refinement.
67
00:04:15,733 --> 00:04:19,100
The third form was the short jacket
68
00:04:19,100 --> 00:04:19,666
and long skirt, composed
69
00:04:19,666 --> 00:04:22,333
of a short upper garment and a long skirt.
70
00:04:22,333 --> 00:04:25,066
This style became increasingly popular
71
00:04:25,066 --> 00:04:27,300
among women and introduced a lighter,
72
00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:29,733
more graceful, and more everyday
73
00:04:29,733 --> 00:04:30,433
aesthetic.
74
00:04:30,433 --> 00:04:32,533
The development of Han wedding attire
75
00:04:32,533 --> 00:04:34,800
therefore reflects a broader humanistic
76
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:35,700
transformation.
77
00:04:35,700 --> 00:04:39,533
Clothing remained connected with ritual,
78
00:04:39,533 --> 00:04:43,700
but it also became increasingly capable
79
00:04:43,700 --> 00:04:46,233
of expressing personal emotion,
80
00:04:46,233 --> 00:04:49,966
bodily beauty, and aesthetic preference.
81
00:04:49,966 --> 00:04:52,733
3.3 Han Dynasty Women's Wedding Attire:
82
00:04:52,733 --> 00:04:53,733
The Deep Robe
83
00:04:53,733 --> 00:04:54,933
The deep robe was one
84
00:04:54,933 --> 00:04:57,266
of the most representative ceremonial
85
00:04:57,266 --> 00:04:58,900
garments of the Han dynasty.
