谷歌建了超大的時尚數據庫，橫跨3000年！

Google’s latest project may be the most widely accessible and comprehensive fashion collection on the planet. All you need to view it is an internet connection.
谷歌的最新項目可能是世界上可使用的最廣泛、最綜合的時尚資源庫了。網絡連接就是你訪問這個資源庫所需要的全部。

“We Wear Culture” is a collaboration between Google and more than 180 museums, schools, fashion institutions, and other organizations from all parts of the globe. It’s part of Google’s Arts & Culture platform, which is digitizing the world’s cultural treasures, and functions as a searchable guide to a collective archive of some 30,000 fashion pieces that puts “three millennia of fashion at your fingertips”.
“我們的穿戴文化”是谷歌以及全球各地180多家博物館、學校、時尚機構和其他組織的一項合作成果。它是谷歌藝術文化平臺的一部分，把世界文化瑰寶數字化，並作爲30,000份時尚收藏檔案的搜索嚮導，“使你可以隨時獲得三千年的時尚資料”。

But it isn’t just a database. Google has worked with curators to create more than 450 exhibits on different topics—say, how the cheongsam changed the way Chinese women dress—making the site an entertaining and educational portal filled with stunning imagery touching on everything from modern Japanese streetwear to the clothes worn at the court of Versailles.
不過它不僅僅是一個數據庫。谷歌和博物館館長們合作，根據不同的主題創建了450多個展示區，例如旗袍是如何改變中國女性的穿衣方式的。這使它成爲一個既具趣味性又有教育意義的門戶網站，而且從現代日本時尚休閒裝到凡爾賽宮廷服飾，該網站對這一切都給予了極具吸引力的形象化描述。

The site uses a variety of different formats to let viewers explore objects, such as the interactive video. Another section lets you explore garments in intricate detail through ultra-high resolution photography.
這個網站通過各種不同的形式，例如交互式視頻，來讓訪問者探索事物。另一種方式就是讓你通過超高分辨率的圖像來研究服裝複雜的細節。

“We wanted to show that fashion is much deeper than just what you wear; that there’s a story behind it, there’s people behind it, there’s influences that come from art, that come from music, that come from culture more broadly,” Kate Lauterbach, program manager for Google Arts & Culture said. “And we thought that if you can have this kind of singular resource online—and hear it from the authority, I think that’s really critical—it would be valuable.”
“我們想展示的是，時尚比你的穿戴更有深度，在其背後有故事，有人，有來自藝術、音樂以及更廣泛的文化的影響力，”谷歌藝術文化平臺項目經理凱特·勞特巴赫說道。“我們認爲如果你能在網上獲得這種單一資源，聽一下權威意見，我認爲這很關鍵，也會很有價值。”

It’s easy to get sucked into the site, perhaps scrolling through a timeline on the history of shoes, and then skimming through the stories of different designers and trendsetters. It’s a pleasant way to lose an afternoon, and may give you a new understanding of what’s hanging in your own closet.
你很容易就會被這個網站所吸引，也許會翻閱一下鞋子歷史的時間軸，然後瀏覽一下不同設計師和潮人的故事。它會使你愉快地度過一個下午，也許還會讓你對自己衣櫥中懸掛着的衣物有新的理解。
