Study this image of clothing worn by Heian aristocrats, then answer the following question. How did the Heian aristocracy affect
clothing in Japan? People still celebrate the style of kimonos worn by the Heian imperial court. Clothing still reflects the religious beliefs of members of the Heian imperial court. Members of the Heian imperial court required people to dress in a specific way. Wealthy people continue to wear clothing similar to that worn in the Heian imperial court.
The Heian period was preceded by the Nara period and began in 794 CE after the movement of the capital of Japan to Heian-kyō (modern Kyoto), by the 50th emperor, Emperor Kanmu.[3] Kanmu first tried to move the capital to Nagaoka-kyō, but a series of disasters befell the city, prompting the emperor to relocate the capital a second time, to Heian. A rebellion occurred in China in the last years of the 9th century, making the political situation unstable. The Japanese missions to Tang China were suspended and the influx of Chinese exports halted, a fact which facilitated the independent growth of Japanese culture called kokufu bunka [ja]. Therefore, the Heian Period is considered a high point in Japanese culture that later generations have always admired. The period is also noted for the rise of the samurai class, which would eventually take power and start the feudal period of Japan.
