Why is Hanfu called "Hanfu" and not "Tang Fu"?

Clothing not only has a high practical value in the development of China, but also contains China's Confucian thoughts, such as the state of etiquette, keeping the ceremony and keeping the road. Now some people in the society wear Hanfu to inherit China culture, so why isn't Hanfu called Tang Fu? In fact, the full name of Hanfu is the traditional costume of the Han nationality, but the costumes from the Yellow Emperor period to the end of the Ming Dynasty are all called Hanfu, so it is not because of the Han Dynasty that it is called Hanfu.

First, the concept of Hanfu is just like we China people will call ourselves Han people, not because we are Han people, but because Han people represent the Han people in our country. It is easier to understand this meaning when applied to Hanfu. Hanfu first appeared in the period of the Yellow Emperor. At that time, the Yellow Emperor needed to make a coronation suit. At that time, the clothing was relatively simple, and it was not formally finalized until the Zhou Dynasty. Then through the four books and five classics to improve the crown service system.

Second, the performance of Hanfu Hanfu is characterized by the fact that they have no buttons, are in the form of horizontal collars, and then tied up with ropes, so they will give people a very elegant and free-spirited image. Moreover, Hanfu can be divided into dresses and uniforms. Dresses are used for formal occasions, and uniforms are used for ordinary daily life. The main system of Hanfu is that the coat is under the petticoat, the clothes are above and the skirt is below. Skirt is a style that ancient women like to wear. Ordinary working people usually wear short clothes and trousers. Therefore, these characteristics of Hanfu are obviously different from other nationalities.

Third, the significance of Hanfu After a long period of development, Hanfu has become an aesthetic clothing system. Hanfu also embodies the cultural thought of the Chinese nation and has a unique style of the Chinese nation. Although Hanfu has no fixed format, its basic elements have been recognized by everyone. In order to carry forward the traditional culture of China, contemporary society also advocates wearing Hanfu to some extent.
