Uniforms are a pervasive part of many societies. But in China there seems to be a particular adherence to uniforms. From entering the subway, passing security and stepping onto the train, you will have encountered not one, but multiple uniformed staff. Walking down the street will have meant dodging bright orange street cleaners, food-delivery staff on scooters or identically dressed salon workers receiving their morning briefing. Upon entering your office, you may have passed uniformed security guards on your way to colleagues dressed in suits and ties. They’re inescapable.
制服是许多社会普遍存在的一部分。但是中国人似乎更钟情于制服。当你乘地铁、过安检和坐火车时,你都会看到穿着各种制服的工作人员。当你走在街上,随处可以看到穿着明亮橘色制服的清洁工,骑着踏板车的送餐员以及接受早训的沙龙服务员。当你去办公室时,你会遇见穿着制服的保安,以及西装革履的同事。制服无处不在。
The uniform's place in Chinese society can be traced back through the country’s history. As in most places across the world, they have been worn throughout the ages in the military to distinguish between factions and provide protection. Each dynasty favored a different style for its soldiers. Drawings of soldiers from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770-221 B.C.) show studded boots and uniforms with heavy arm and torso protection, whereas similar depictions from the Sui Dynasty (A.D. 581-618) illustrate draped and layered military wear. Uniforms were often as fierce as the battles their wearers fought in.
