What do you mean by network autumn trousers?

Su Mang, heroine of "Autumn Pants Door" and editor-in-chief of Bazaar, a fashion magazine.

In early 2008, Su Mang, editor-in-chief of Bazaar, a fashion magazine, revealed in an interview program that she insisted on not wearing long pants in winter and told the hostess that colleagues were not allowed to wear long pants at work. The enthusiastic hostess also told the magazine editor that she only wore stockings and skirts in winter.

The original dialogue of "autumn trousers door"-

Lu Yu: You are a bit like me. In winter, you wear a short skirt barefoot and I wear a pair of thin socks. I only wear a pair of pants in winter, and so do you.

Su Mang: I don't allow people around me to wear trousers.

Lu Yu: Not only don't let people around you wear long pants, but also let them check their boxes. Whoever brings long trousers will be confiscated.

Su Mang: As I often go abroad and know the manners of some foreigners, I think it is very important to do as the Romans do. We are going abroad for training. I gave some good suggestions to some leaders. I said, you must never wear woolen pants. We went to new york in winter, and it was very cold. To scare him, I said that foreigners discriminate against people who wear woolen pants, which is detrimental to the image of China people.

After the rare winter at the beginning of this year, the topic of "autumn trousers, whether to wear them or not" intensified on the Internet, and then developed into a super war of words. What northerners call "autumn trousers" is what Shanghainese commonly call "cotton trousers". Although both Rosamund Kwan and Shu Qi were spokesmen for thermal underwear, it is no exaggeration to say that before that, autumn trousers never enjoyed the "treatment" of fashion topics and online popularity. It started like this: Su Mang, the female editor-in-chief of a domestic fashion magazine, talked about telling her boss not to wear trousers in an interview program. As a result, she was posted online by netizens, and then dozens of versions about "Don't wear long pants" were derived.

This week, Su Mang, who was criticized by netizens, clarified the "Autumn Pants Door Incident" in his personal blog, saying that he never said anything like "Fashion people don't wear autumn pants" or "Please ask fashion editors not to wear autumn pants", and the "Autumn Pants Door Incident" finally came to an end. However, when interviewing sociologists and fashion experts, the reporter found that from another perspective, behind this famous "autumn trousers", it is not necessarily Su Mang who was forced to make a statement to clarify, but perhaps netizens themselves and a handful of people who declared that "how I want to wear cotton trousers is none of your business".

The event playback of a pair of "autumn trousers" has become a hot spot on the Internet.

The "Autumn Pants Door" incident frequently reprinted by netizens is like this: Su Mang was interviewed by host Lu Yu and revealed his habit of not wearing autumn pants in winter; Lu Yu told Su Mang that she only wore socks and skirts in winter. The firepower of netizens, from personal comments on Su Mang, focused on the discussion of "whether to wear long pants". Then, some netizens broke the story of Su Mang: "A male editor bent down to reveal the waist of long trousers, and the editor was furious: How can a fashion editor wear long trousers?" ! Do you still want to do it? The male editor was very cold, but he still wore it, and secretly stuffed the waist of the autumn trousers in, thinking that he could get away with it. The next day, the editor-in-chief saw the man and touched his waist, so his trouser legs were exposed again. "

Many netizens' posts are full of cynicism about Su Mang. "Don't wear long pants and 100 underpants?" "This kind of behavior (referring to not wearing long trousers) is completely irresponsible to society and itself. It is so cold in winter, but it is necessary to dress like summer. Isn't that to turn the temperature of the air conditioner very high? This is not environmentally friendly. " There are also more rational statements, such as "whether to wear long trousers or not should be the need of good health, influenced by living environment and physical quality, and should not be the standard to judge whether it is fashionable", and so on.

The "autumn trousers door" has also attracted the attention of overseas Chinese, especially international students. An American student posted: "I am so angry! Usually diving, now you have to talk! I stayed in the north of America for seven years and changed more than ten American roommates. When winter comes, they all wear long warm pants, called autumn pants. " Another international student asked, "My dear compatriots who are wandering in other countries, can you buy autumn trousers?" Are you okay in the days without long pants? "

Latest progress: Su Mang writes a blog to clarify the "autumn trousers door"

This week, Su Mang posted a clarification on his personal blog, saying that he was "very wronged" by the misunderstanding of netizens. "I only joked that I had an appointment in Luyu and told a story about not letting the boss wear woolen pants. That was a long time ago. My boss drives to and from work every day, from his garage to his company's garage. It's not freezing, so I advised him not to wear woolen pants to make his suit more tangible. He has been my boss for more than ten years, and I can joke. " In addition, Su Mang stressed that he "never asked the editor not to wear woolen pants and trousers". "You can ask our own editor. Even when I was writing a blog, our editor was shouting,' I'm wearing long pants now!' "

Of course, amid the rebuttal, some netizens expressed their understanding and support for Su Mang. A netizen signed "misty purple" wrote: "I remember going to London for a meeting and staying at the famous Sava Hotel. When passing by the lobby, I saw the smell of clothes in the banquet hall and the shadow of the temple. At that time, I was very curious. I pushed the door in with my companions and suddenly found myself in the wrong room. Because the boys and girls in it are wearing very thin evening dresses, which is in sharp contrast with our woolen suits. One of the ladies, wearing a thin evening dress, stood at the gate of the hotel waiting for her driver to drive over. At that moment, the cold wind in London was matched with the lady's half-naked evening dress. If she puts on thick cotton trousers and down jacket at this time, it is obvious that the British style has disappeared. It seems that knowing yourself and knowing yourself and talking too much about fashion concepts should conform to your own living habits. Writing here, I can't help but applaud the fashion editor who insists on not wearing long trousers, because as a member of the fashion industry, it is obviously necessary to practice. "

Experts remind autumn trousers to keep warm but don't "make a fool of yourself"

Miss Yu, a fashion editor of a women's magazine in Shanghai, told reporters that as a colleague, she fully understood what she wanted to express. "After watching all the interviews, the audience will find that Su Mang didn't look down on people who wear long pants. She is emphasizing the concept of' when in Rome, do as the Romans do'. "

In Miss Yu's view, it is not a bad thing that the "autumn trousers door" has caused heated discussion, but its center should not be "whether autumn trousers can be worn", but "how to keep warm and not ugly". "Fashion is nothing more than human nature. The problem is that many people wear autumn clothes and trousers badly. As underwear, the most basic way to wear autumn trousers is not to let others see them. For example, in winter, some men think it is still very cold to wear shirts and sweaters, so they wear autumn clothes under their shirts, and as a result, an autumn collar is exposed under their shirts. Also, you don't have to wear long pants to wear a suit, but at least you should stuff them into your shirt to cover them. Of course, women will wear it by mistake. For example, women love to wear skirts in winter, but it's very cold, so they put a pair of long pants under the stockings, and even the color of the long pants is exposed, which is not good-looking. "

In response to the theory of "how to dress as comfortably as possible" put forward by a small number of netizens, Miss Yu also said that wearing is really a personal matter, and others can only remind them and cannot enforce them. "When we communicate with readers, we do meet such people and things. Some men will think, what's wrong with my shirt showing the neckline and cuffs of autumn clothes? What stands in your way, you don't have to look! Then there is nothing we can do. At most, we feel that this person lacks the necessary etiquette education. "

The psychological interpretation of netizens' collective anger is also "making a fool of yourself"

At the same time as the "photo door", a pair of "autumn trousers" can actually cause such a heated discussion, and the mentality of netizens has once again attracted the attention of sociologists. He Feng, a sociologist in Shanghai, believes that this kind of "collective anger" of netizens is on the one hand because the internet has provided them with a collective "emotional out of control". "If you play back the whole event, you can draw such a vein: First, a few netizens who have watched the program have taken Su Mang's statement about autumn trousers out of context and posted it on the Internet with eye-catching titles; Then, many netizens who have never seen the program at all saw the post and forwarded it on a large scale; As a result, more and more netizens joined the team of verbal criticism and formed the phenomenon of' autumn trousers door'. "

On the other hand, the "collective anger" of netizens lies in their challenge to "authority" and their proof of "self-worth". "I believe that most people in the fashion circle will understand Su Mang's statement, but for netizens, they will think that as the editor-in-chief of fashion magazines, they are exposed to Su Mang, the world's top fashion, and even show a little disrespect for long Johns, which is a provocation to ordinary people and daily life. In fact, both emotional catharsis and will expression are rights, but such rights must be based on not hurting others. Personally, I also think that this kind of' allergic' behavior of netizens, from a psychological point of view, is a manifestation of unconfidence and their efforts to prove themselves. For a simple example, you think that people who are not as good as you say that you are not good, and you may just smile and pass; But if someone who thinks you are better than you says you are not good, you may jump up to refute it, and it is precisely the action of' jumping up' that reflects your inner fragility. You want to gain confidence by challenging this person. " (Reporter Sun)
