The origin of Hanfu

Hanfu is developed from the clothes of "Huang Shun governs the world by hanging down its clothes". The full name of Hanfu is "traditional costumes of the Han nationality", from the accession of the Yellow Emperor to the middle of17th century (late Ming and early Qing Dynasty). In the main inhabited areas of Han nationality, "Huaxia-Han nationality" culture is its background and leading thought. With Chinese etiquette culture as the core, the unique Han style and personality formed through natural evolution are obviously different from the traditional clothing system of other nationalities.

Hanfu is developed from the clothes of "Huang Shun governs the world by hanging down its clothes". The full name of Hanfu is "the traditional costume of the Han nationality", also known as Hanfu official, Hanzhuang and Huafu. The Yellow Emperor ascended the throne to the middle of17th century (late Ming and early Qing Dynasty), and was located in the main residential area of Han nationality, with "Huaxia-Han" culture as the background and ideology as the leading factor. With Chinese etiquette culture as the core, the unique Han style and personality formed through natural evolution are obviously different from the traditional clothing system of other nationalities. It is the embodiment of China's "country of clothes", "country of etiquette", "country of splendid china" and "country of Cyrus", bearing the excellent craftsmanship and aesthetics of the Han nationality, and inheriting more than 30 Chinese intangible cultural heritages and protected China arts and crafts. Hanfu "began in Huangdi and was prepared in Yaoshun", which originated from the coronation made by Huangdi. Stereotyped in the Zhou Dynasty, and after the Han Dynasty, based on the Four Books and Five Classics, it formed a complete robe and costume system and became a part of Shinto. Therefore, China's later dynasties lived in the Zhou Dynasty and the French and Han Dynasties, and it was a national event to inherit the mantle of the Han Dynasty, which led to the ambition of Yu Dafu in the Twenty-four History. "The Yellow Emperor and Yao Shun govern the world by hanging down their clothes, which benefits from Gan Kun", which means that the shape of the petticoat under their clothes is determined by God's will and sacred. Hanfu has also influenced the whole Chinese cultural circle through the Huaxia legal system, and some ethnic groups in Asian countries, such as Japan, Korea, Vietnam, Mongolia and Bhutan, have or learn from the characteristics of Hanfu.
