  • What Are the Must-Have Accessories for Hanfu?

    I’ve seen so many beautiful hanfu outfits online, and the accessories always seem to pull everything together. When I wear mine, though, I feel like something’s missing. What accessories do you all usually wear with your hanfu? Any essentials that I should get to make my look more polished?

    If you want your hanfu look to really stand out, there are a few accessories that are absolutely essential. First up is a hairpin—it’s a classic accessory that helps keep your hair in place while adding a bit of beauty. Whether it’s a jade or gold hairpin, it’s an easy way to elevate your style. Then, you need some earrings. Simple jade or pearl earrings will work with almost any hanfu style. If you want to dress it up a bit more, you can choose gold earrings with a more intricate design.

    Another must-have is a waistband (bi), which keeps the hanfu in place and adds a bit of structure to your outfit. It’s a small detail but makes a huge difference in the overall look. Finally, don’t forget about shoes—comfortable embroidered slippers or traditional cloth shoes are perfect for most hanfu styles and will help complete your look.

    These accessories are the foundation of any hanfu outfit and will help you achieve a timeless, beautiful look with minimal effort.

    Sash—defines it. Hairpin—finishes it. Jade pendant—classic touch!

    Belt’s a must—holds it together. Maybe earrings? Feels complete!
