Hanfu sees revival as elegant Chinese look wins new admirers

Dressed in a long-sleeved chiffon top and an orange pleated skirt, bilibili vlogger Shi Shanyi flourished her round Asian fan as she faced the camera and told viewers about the beautiful hanfu, the traditional clothing of the Han ethnic group.

Unlike other people who wear traditional ethnic clothing on special occasions, however, Shi encourages viewers to don hanfu on a daily basis.

In some videos on her bilibili account - called maobuxiaojiejie (or Miss Catwalk in English) - Shi asks viewers to boldly wear hanfu if they really like the traditional outfit.
