In recent years, Hanfu has become more and more popular. What improvements have Hanfu made compared with before?

1. Color improvement based on visual aesthetics. Due to the shackles of feudal ideology, ancient Hanfu needs to consider identity, wearing place and other factors when using colors. There are five common colors: red, yellow, black, white and cyan. In addition to special etiquette, the color of modern clothing is more influenced by popular colors, and the release of popular colors every year will lead the color fashion trend of social clothing. Therefore, Hanfu can also skillfully use the popular colors of the year to keep up with the trend of the times. Judging from the popular colors released in the spring and summer of 202 1, the gentle and elegant soft powder, the refreshing and elegant mint green, the calm and light blue, and the bright and enthusiastic transparent red can all match the ancient Chinese costume.

2. Mode improvement based on cultural integration. When traditional animal prints, plant prints, landscape and astronomical weather prints, text prints and geometric prints encounter mythical elements, secondary images and animation elements, the collision of different cultures will bring new vitality to the generation of traditional Hanfu. Taking the Hanfu sold by the top three Hanfu stores in Taobao in 2020 as an example, we can find that the Hanfu sold by the three stores is very diverse, including both traditional Hanfu and improved Hanfu, among which there are not a few Hanfu styles mainly based on pattern improvement. For example, the model of "Rabbit and Strawberry" made by the store for more than thirteen years, the model of Hanfu made by the store of "Return to Han and Tang Dynasties" and the model of Hanfu made by the store of "Fantasy Westward Journey", and the model of Hanfu made by the store of "Hanshang Hualian" are all jointly produced by non-human cartoons. Such Hanfu either endows Hanfu with a legend, or co-brands with other brands, and combines innovative patterns with traditional Hanfu forms, realizing the perfect cultural integration of ancient and modern times.

3. Improvement of size structure based on practical function. Taking off the sleeves of the coat is one of the remarkable characteristics of traditional Hanfu, and it is the embodiment of the ancient people's generous and harmonious view of nature. From the practical and functional point of view, taking off the coat of Hanfu has caused inconvenience to daily activities and has become a major factor restricting Hanfu from entering modern daily life. Therefore, in order to make Hanfu more civilian and daily, we can subtract the size specifications of traditional Hanfu from the perspective of practical function, so that Hanfu can better meet the needs of modern people's physique and daily activities, which has also become a new result of the collision between Hanfu and the times.
