Religious Connotation Of Women'S Clothing In Tibet

For thousands of years, Tibetan Buddhism, as the belief of the entire Tibetan people, has not only played a major role in the economy and politics of Tibet, but also affected all aspects of Tibetan social life, influenced people's minds and minds, and accumulated thick historical accumulation in their national culture and national psychology, and even formed the customs and aesthetic customs of the nation.

Tibetan women's clothing

First of all, in jewelry, Tibetan women like to wear headgear, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings and even belts. On the one hand, they come from productive labor, and on the other hand they are influenced by "Thirteen things of perfect dress" in Buddhism.

The so-called "Thirteen things of perfect dress" is the thirteen kinds of costumes commonly seen in Tibetan opera.

It includes five clothing (crown, shawl, ribbon, waist belt, skirt) and jewelry eight ornaments (headwear, earrings, necklaces, arm brackets, tassels, bracelets, rings, bracelets).

Tibetan women like to use these ornaments to disguise themselves and make them more charming and charming.

But from the original point of view, these ornaments were first of all piety towards Buddha, especially some.

Secondly, in terms of color, the dress of Tibetan women is very bold in the use of multicolor, for a reason.

From the Buddhist sense, "multicoloured Hatha is the eye of Bodhisattva, blue means blue sky, white represents white clouds, green represents rivers, red represents the law of protecting the gods, and yellow represents the earth."

Tibetan women's "state code" (apron) is based on multicolour as the keynote and combined with a variety of colors.

Some northern Tibetan women's robes are also covered with 5 cm wide multicolored "state code" materials, and then use red, blue, yellow, purple, black and other colors to make 3 to 14 centimeters wide patterns.

Of course, with the changes of the times, these strong religious characteristics gradually lost their original meaning, and the aesthetic elements became more and more concentrated. Many religious devices, patterns and patterns gradually evolved into the traditional aesthetic objects of the nation.
