Women’s clothing is an effective carrier for expressing women’s inner needs and showcasing their charm. The clothing of women in different periods not only reflects the aesthetic changes of women in different periods, but also reflects the changes in women’s social status in a specific period. Since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China, the changes in Chinese women’s clothing have been closely related to the changes in Chinese society at that time, and new changes have emerged after the reform and opening up. It has been proven that women’s clothing in different periods can accurately reflect the changes in China’s socio-economic, political, and cultural development, as well as demonstrate the recognition of women’s status and acceptance of free and open thinking in Chinese society at different times. This article focuses on the changes in Chinese women’s clothing during three periods: from the establishment of the People’s Republic of China in 1949 to the reform and opening up in 1978 after the reform and opening up in 1978, and the present. The changes in women’s clothing can accurately reflect the ideological changes in Chinese society and the different social statuses of Chinese women.
