After the founding of New China, dressing was tightly linked to the revolution.
Suits and cheongsams were seen as bourgeois affectations and they gradually disappeared from people's lives.
Zhongshan and Lenin outfits became the common choice of the people.
Men wore Zhongshan suits to look solemn and spiritual.
Zhongshan Suit: Two pockets with flaps and buttons on the left and right side of the upper body, and western-style pants on the lower body, which was advocated by Dr. Sun Yat-sen and got its name.
The Sun Yat-sen suit was formed on the basis of extensive absorption of the advantages of European clothing. Sun Yat-sen synthesized the characteristics of Western and Chinese clothing, and designed a straight lapel with pockets and flaps of the four-pocketed clothing, which was named the Sun Yat-sen suit.
Since then, there has been a series of Zhongshan clothes, such as youth clothes, student clothes, military casual wear.
In addition, Chairman Mao liked the gray Zhongshan suit, the small collar was changed to a broad and long new pointed collar and other Mao-style clothing.
These became the mainstream style at that time.
Lenin's clothes: During the Cultural Revolution, military uniforms and monochromatic shades of blue, black, gray, and yellow were the mainstay.
It was a men's top, but it evolved into women's clothing in China at the time, and became the revolutionary "fashion".
It had the appearance of a suit collar, double-breasted buttons, and a concealed slanting pocket at the bottom of each lapel.
Wearing Lenin's clothes and short hair was a fashionable way for young women to dress, and it looked both simple and valiant.
So it has the distinctive characteristics of the East meets West, belonging to the product of the East meets West.
Bragi: is the phonetic translation of the Russian language (платье), in Russian Bragi is the meaning of the dress, but because the Russian dress has its own unique characteristics, so China will directly call this Russian style dress Bragi.

New China has just been established, everyone participates in labor.
The need for wearable and dirt-resistant everyday clothes.
The gray, blue, and green of work and military uniforms naturally became the most practical and popular colors.
The clothes of the 60s were jokingly referred to as a "collective clash", but it was true that people were wearing the same colors and styles.
"In the first three years of the serious natural disasters, the country's material shortage, everyone tightened their belts, everything to *** supply, buy fabrics, of course, also have to rely on the cloth ticket." The early 60s, the most difficult period in the history of new China, due to three years of natural disasters, 1959 to 1960 cotton production was significantly reduced, cotton rationed to 21 feet per person.
People had to buy clothes, cotton cloth and daily textiles with cloth tickets. In order to save as much as possible, the standard for buying clothes was to be wear-resistant and stain-resistant, and gray, black, and blue became the popular colors on the streets, and a thousand different, seasonally-independent, and male-female-independent clothing styles were also more prevalent.
A cartoonist once portrayed the scene as "everyone in blue".
All the flowery clothes and cheongsams have become symbols of "feudalism, capitalism, and cultivation". When the revolution removed the bourgeois tails of cheongsams and other clothes, what was left was only the liberation suit, the youth suit, the Zhongshan suit, and the cardigan.
We saw from some photos reflecting this period, a group of high school students in uniform, at a glance, I thought it was the formation of the army soldiers, colorful student uniforms.
In those days, they didn't have the right to choose the style of clothing, and they didn't have any style to choose from.

Teenagers like to wear grass-green military civilian clothes, grass-green military hats, and grass-green school bags.

For a long time in the 70s, there was a decade of "Cultural Revolution" in which "one billion people, one billion soldiers", and during this period, the sense of hierarchy in clothing gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a sense of class.
In the original hard, simple, thrifty and frugal ideology, and added a strong revolutionary, militarized color.
Therefore, the dress code of this period continues to continue some of the characteristics of the late 1960s.
Hard and simple or then the most mainstream fashion.
In order to show their hard and simple, some people will even buy new clothes in the water to do old, or in the clothes have not been damaged on a few patches.
This kind of behavior seems to be quite ridiculous nowadays, but it prevailed for a while in the decade of the Cultural Revolution.
The four-pocketed uniform: a product of the years when the PLA abolished and restored the rank system.
At that time, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) uniforms were a special symbol, only officers above the platoon level had four pockets on their shirts, while the average soldier's uniform had only two pockets on it, and in the era of the uniform becoming the most fashionable clothing, the "four pockets" appeared to be particularly valuable.
