中文摘要：中西方文化有很多的不同之处，只不仅仅说指思维方式的不同，实际上，人们在日常生活的行为也很不相同，有时甚至是相反的。服装对于人类来说，就如食物和饮料那样同等重要，因为你会看到千变万化的服装而不是一个从不穿衣服的人。另一方面，作为一种社会和文化的形态，衣服不仅仅揭示了国家的物质文明建设和精神文明，也体现了人们的心理和情感的活动中，渗透于文明的日常生活。作为一个事实，中国和西方服饰文化在他们自己的社会环境中形成了自己特有的服饰体制。现在，由于经济和技术的发展，以及全球化的商业交易，生活方式变得越来越相似。时尚也有这样的趋势。西方人被中国时尚的崛起深深影响，这种影响很容易在与中国服饰文化结合的西方设计中发现。
