A history of costumes, in a sense, is also a sensitivity of the history of human culture.Costumes are unique to human labor, the perfect combination of material and spiritual civilization. It takes several hundreds of years of human society from ignorance, barbarism to civilization. Our ancestors of apes and monkeys from the property, the granting of animal skins and leaves, through a difficult time counting, and finally the border with civilization, who know how to warm the body cover, with work to create a material. The pursuit of beauty is human nature; clothes to people are just like Gold to the Buddha, whose role not only in the cover body to cover their bodies, more landscaping features. Almost from that day on the origin of clothing, life custom, aesthetic taste, color-loving, as well as a variety of cultural mentality, religious concepts are precipitated in the clothing, building a spiritual connotation of Chinese clothing culture. With inheritance of culture, it is necessary for us to rethink about Chinese clothing culture, when we appreciate the wisdom of our ancestors.Throughout Zheng He's commerce overseas and the Silk Road, the clothing culture of our country has been spread to other countries and impacted on them in ancient times. With the rapid development of the costume industry, Western countries play a leading role in fashion design. The status of Europe in fashion design still can not be replaced. The development of modern fashion design has become communalization and internationalization. the culture between countries learn from each other and infiltration, China's ancient culture costumes were also widely used in clothing design by well-known designers from abroad, producing an influential "China wind", which embodies the Chinese more and more recognized by the world. This is a kind of popular culture, it is also a continuation of civilization.The development of contemporary fashion design set a trend of diversification. The design of clothing also appeared on a variety of forms and styles co-exist influenced by the world diversity. Post-modernism is popular, among which structuralism is the most affected. After the emergence of deconstruction, the traditional pattern of fashion design has changed, which break the traditional thinking. Innovative, creative thinking became the essential element to contemporary designers. Social diversity, cinema, painting and other art forms have had a significant impact on the development of today's clothing design.China's costume industry has made enormous progress in the field of fashion design. There are many well-known designers and brands, such as well-known designer Ma Yanli, Zhang Zhao-Da; well-known brands Li Ning and Bosideng. Their efforts not only improve a person's value and reputation, but also to show the world that we have a strong force in the new era with the ancient culture of the outstanding achievements of clothing. Although we had a stagnation for a long time in the Chinese clothing culture for certain historical reasons and the needs of social development, we have a long, rich history of precipitation, We can also make Chinese fashion design development and higher, farther, longer from the perspective of"make the past serve now"!At present, the rapid development of society and economy brings rapid development of materialism. We are facing the problems of deteriorating environment, climate instability, rare and endangered animals. The integration of the global economy, the economic crisis also led to exaggerated and far-reaching so that no one country can act alone. The greatly enriched material is bound to lead to people to follow the trend blindly. Modern fashion designers had to face the historical responsibility and commitment in the international developments at the time, finding out how can grasp the pulse of time and cultural heritage of ancient costumes in a wide range of contexts. modern fashion design has been an extremely important historical status and influence, which not only changes practical function of clothing into the aesthetic function, but also a way of life to provide people with new thinking and ideas, to arouse people's awareness. In the tradition of civilization and social development, it can make people and society in the"harmonious"development.
