Abstract

The robe and waistcoat is one of the representative costumes for men in the Republic of China (R.O.C.) period, and the robe and waistcoat are used as men's dress in the three basic dress laws promulgated by the R.O.C. government. Based on the historical documents and the pictures of the surviving objects, the study analyzes the legal provisions about men's robes and coats in the three decrees of the dress system, and explores the three aspects of the background of the era, the political system, and the ideological and cultural changes behind it. The study concludes that although the robe and waistcoat is a remnant of the former dynasty,it represents the unity of "breaking" and "establishing" in the modern transitional government of the Republic of China, and the powers-that-be in the Republic of China discarded the feudal rites and laws embedded in the robe and waistcoat, and gave it a new meaning and new ideological and cultural concepts. Ideology and cultural concepts. Until now, the robe and waistcoat also represent the "Republic of China style", representing men's elegant and introverted temperament.
