Abstract

In the early 10th century, Vietnam gained independence after nearly 1.000 years under the rules of the Chinese dynasties. At the beginning of the administrative reconstruction, the dress of the mandarin class, although newly regulated, was deeply influenced by the acculturation process from China. Studying the changing process of the imperial court dress in Vietnam throughout history will contribute to raising awareness of the Vietnamese’s traditional cultural values. In this paper, the authors will put efforts into explaining the causes of similarities in costume culture between Vietnam and China through the historical period from the 10th to the 14th century. It is expected that the results of the research paper will initially lay a scientific foundation for the restoration of traditional costumes into the lives of Vietnamese people nowadays.
