Asian+Fashion

=__Fashion in Asia __ = =Asian fashion differs with each historical period of time. To people in Asia clothing was very important. Different groups of people wore different clothing. Their way of dressing determined the group in which a stranger belongs. Men and women both have a basic cloth that they tie around them in different ways. How you wound the cloth showed what group you belonged to. = = West Asia is known to be reasonably hot. Asians adapt to this by wearing loose fitting clothes so they don't get sunburn. Sometimes they wear cloth over their heads to protect them from the hot sun. For women this cloth is called a veil for men it is called a turban. Even when working women were to cover from her knees all the way up to her neck. = =During the Pre-Qing Dynasty in China, clothes were referred to as hanfu, the traditional dress of the Han Chinese folk. Many of the Asian forms of dress derived from the hanfu including the Japanese kimonos .  Some kimonos and sandals were even made out of rice reed ! This form of dress was even worn by the legendary Yellow Empire. Eventually, Manchu invaders eliminated hanfu by force in the 17th century. =
