1. Introduction
The Chinese nation has a five-thousand-year history of civilization. And the splendid and magnificent Chinese culture especially from Tang Dynasty has influenced the whole world for thousands of years. Among the culture world, costume plays an essential role, for costume is not only a product of culture but also a carrier of it. All of the costume is the combination of human being’s creativity both in spirit and material. It represents the characters of its culture, and its connotation not only has historical significance but also has ethical implication.
Recently, with the increasingly rapid pace of China’s reform and opening, Chinese economy has developed fast. China’s development is geared to higher international standard. Everyday we can see the imported goods in every corner of China. With these things enriching our lives, we need to be aware of one phenomenon that is the draining of Chinese culture, especially in the field of costume. Korean, Japanese and Western styles are making their costume widely known, while Chinese national costume and traditional costume culture appear to weaken slowly. Recently the developing direction of Chinese economy has been convergent to the western world, and with the deepening of globalization, the oriental element of our costume culture is draining gradually.
