Does cheongsam belong to Hanfu?

Cheongsam is a fashion in Shanghai in the early 20th century, which originated from Manchu costumes in the Qing Dynasty. It is characterized by self-cultivation, high collar and narrow cuffs, and is often made of fabrics such as silk and satin. Cheongsam became the representative of women's fashion in China from the early to the middle of the 20th century, and was widely worn in social occasions and daily life.

Hanfu refers to the traditional Han costume in China, which originated from the ancient Han costume culture. Hanfu is characterized by looseness and comfort, elegant skirts and sleeves, and is mostly made of silk and other fabrics. Hanfu has a long tradition in the history of China, which represents the culture and identity of the Han nationality.

Although both cheongsam and Hanfu are traditional costumes in China, they are different in style, origin and cultural background. Therefore, cheongsam is not classified as a traditional Hanfu.
