The Tang Dynasty is the most powerful dynasty in ancient China, not only its own strength is very strong, in many aspects are the world's first, and the policy is also very enlightened, not excluding foreign cultures, so many people are familiar with the history of the Tang Dynasty. Among them, the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty with fat as beauty have always been the topic of discussion, and Yang Guifei is the most beautiful woman in the Tang Dynasty, and it is also the most representative of the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty.
Yang Guifei's life can be described as legendary, Yang Guifei's original name was Yang Yuhuan, originally a concubine of Li Mao, the King of Shou, and later favored by Li Longji of Tang Xuanzong and became Li Longji's concubine. The reason why Yang Guifei is so popular, in addition to being proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the most important thing is Yang Guifei's appearance and figure.
Although Yang Guifei is famous for being fat, Yang Guifei is not the big fat man we imagine, but a woman who is about 165 centimeters tall and weighs only 120 pounds. Such a weight may be fat for modern stars, but for us ordinary people, it is at most called plump.
In the history books, it is also recorded that Tang Xuanzong often hugged Yang Guifei, if Yang Guifei was really fat, how could such a situation happen. So although the Tang Dynasty thought fat was beautiful, what they called fat was not the fatter the better, but slightly fat as beautiful. In fact, in the eyes of our older generation, it is the same, and the slightly fat woman is the most beautiful.
