Metropolitan Yunshang - A Detailed Discussion on Chinese Women's Clothing and Body Revolution (1911-1935)

Throughout Chinese history, whenever a dynasty changes, there are inevitable transformations in clothing. From the 1911 Xinhai Revolution to 1935, China underwent significant changes over two decades. The political and societal upheavals during this period had a profound impact on women's clothing, turning it into a captivating drama filled with joy, anger, sorrow, and hope. Clothing, like dramas and novels, serves as a collective memory, providing a glimpse into historical culture. Reflecting on the vibrant women's fashion of the 1920s and 1930s not only reminds us of the modern urban life but also raises a poignant question: amidst the bustling city and beautiful clothes, where was the country headed during that time?
