I get it—showing up in Hanfu for the first time can be nerve-wracking. You worry, Am I overdressed? Will people stare? But honestly, once you step in, you’ll probably realize most people love seeing Hanfu!
A few tips to help with first-time jitters:
· Wear something comfortable—don’t choose a super complex outfit if you’re still getting used to Hanfu.
· If you’re worried about standing out too much, go with a friend or pick an event where others will also be in Hanfu.
· If people ask about your outfit, just say, “This is Hanfu, traditional Chinese clothing.” Most will just be curious, not judging.
· Most importantly, enjoy yourself! You’re wearing something beautiful and meaningful—own it!
