Why is cheongsam more recognized than Hanfu?

Cheongsam originated in the Republic of China. It is a traditional costume for Chinese women. Even now, many women choose to wear Cheongsam, because it can beautify women's figure and reveal their beautiful curves, which is the main reason why Cheongsam is more recognized than Hanfu.

Cheongsam is actually relatively modern. Perhaps people do have a retro heart at present, but if a woman wears Hanfu to public occasions, she will certainly be noticed by others, while Cheongsam can really be worn outside and recognized by others. Therefore, compared with cheongsam, Hanfu lacks a little practicality.

Hanfu is also the quintessence of China, but some people think that we should take its essence and discard its dross. I think Hanfu is a symbol of beauty. Maybe compared with Qipao, its value is much higher than Qipao, but the high recognition of Qipao lies in its practicality and aesthetics. He is closer to women's aesthetics. Hanfu is usually loose and can't show women's beauty, but Qipao can show it incisively and vividly.
