Hanfu Movement
Hanfu Movement (simplified Chinese: 汉服运动; traditional Chinese: 漢服運動; pinyin: Hànfú yùndòng), also known as the Hanfu Revival Movement (汉服复兴运动; 漢服復興運動; Hànfú fùxīng yùndòng), is a homegrown, grassroots cultural movement seeking to revive or revitalize Han Chinese fashion. It finds its manifestation in the wearing in public of the traditional Han attire of pre-Qing era. It began as the elegant pastime of a historically-conscious subculture and has evolved into a trendy nationwide movement boasting millions of young consumers and led by fashion-conscious youth. It has also slowly gained traction amongst the overseas Chinese diaspora, especially in countries like Singapore. The Hanfu movement developed in China in 2003.
