Abstract

From the Rococo style to the modern Lolita style, the style of women’s costume can intuitively express the ideology they want to express or subconsciously want to express. The female consciousness also changes more and more strongly with time, from the autocratic power of father and husband to the equality of men and women at present, from the perspective of costume’s style. From the late 17th century, the female because of patriarchy and masculine autocratic dictatorship, begin to have weak consciousness of women, to the 18th century leading ladies in polite society, and even now the consciousness of women is mature enough, now the ideology of Chinese women has gone through the baptism of the times, and women are more independent from consciousness to thought, with their own views and ideas. This paper uses the method of survey and comes to the conclusion that there has been a split in Chinese feminist thought. Through women’s costume, now part of society women can completely regardless of others’ opinions to dress, the other part is how much there is some concern; some people in their own feel wearing is free, no please, but in some people’s eyes, they still see feel they have to attract the opposite sex in eye, curry favor with the opposite sex.
