According to Jiang Kayu, a researcher from the China Research Institute of Economy, who was interviewed by China Industry and Economics News, buying hanfu is just the beginning of spending. Following that, there are also significant expenses such as arm bands, traditional handbags, matching shoes, and even oiled paper umbrellas, round fans, etc. For headwear alone, there are hairpins, hair combs, hair sticks, hairbands, forehead jewels, hairpins, and so on. These can be made of pearls, jade, artificial flowers, and come in different colors and styles to match different types of hanfu. The expenditure on peripheral products is no less than that on hanfu itself.
The event organizers showcased Chengdu's cultural heritage and beauty through traditional prayer ceremonies, garden tours, and group dances, promoting Chinese traditional culture and warming up for the World University Games. Beside the Jinjiang River and amidst the bamboo forest, over 500 hanfu enthusiasts gathered at Wanjing Tower Park. As performances like “Grandeur Dance” and “Etiquette of the Nation Group Dance” took place, the flowing sleeves and the elegance of the robes were on full display. The gracefulness of the upper garments, the solemnity of the deep clothing, the nonchalance of the robes, and the dashingness of the cloaks, paired with gold hairpins, hairpins, and other accessories, demonstrated the beauty of hanfu.

Do you find these hair accessories beautiful? A hairpin is a type of headwear, and its name sounds very pleasant! There are many styles of hairpins that can be paired with different styles of hanfu. Each of the hairpins shown in the above pictures is unique, with floral designs, phoenixes, cranes, lanterns, and each one is beautiful. However, each has tassels, and the colors and styles of the tassels differ. Most tassels are adorned with beads. In general, the top half of the accessories are more delicate and minimalist, especially this one, with pink petals paired with transparent pearl beads, which is simply too girly! The bottom half is more luxurious and suitable for pairing with some of the more ornate Tang Dynasty-style clothing.

Hanfu accessories refer to ornaments in hanfu that are easy to replace and move. The types of accessories are numerous, and besides the sash, which is an essential part of hanfu, other accessories are worn depending on the occasion and situation. In hanfu, exquisite and gorgeous headwear, whether it's a hairband or a hairpin, is very beautiful and has traditional characteristics. They are considered the most characteristic jewelry in hanfu matching and are indispensable decorations. Earrings are also essential in hanfu accessories. Hanfu earrings are very different from modern earrings in terms of craftsmanship, design, and material. Compared to the modern metal style, hanfu has more of a jade-like quality.
Hanfu is in vogue, and the beauty of its attire is inseparable from traditional culture. “Lazily drawing eyebrows, leisurely dressing and grooming” evokes the ancient style dreams of many little fairies, automatically entering the role because of the gentle and fresh “silver candles cast cold light on painted screens, lightly gauze fans catching fireflies.” Dressed in hanfu, walking gracefully, it seems like they are also people in the painting. The beauty of hanfu lies in its rules, hairstyles, styling, and props, among which accessories play a crucial role. To become a “standing in the wind, drunk for a thousand years” hanfu fairy, one must not only know how to correctly pair hanfu accessories but also where to buy authentic and genuine accessory products.
If the skirt and hairstyle are the foundation of an outfit, then accessories are the finishing touch. Generally, “cute style” pairings choose small and light-colored hair accessories. If the hair accessory is a tassel, it is usually a shorter and finer style, unlike the larger “hairpin,” a smaller and more dynamic style is more suitable for the “cute” style. Like the young girl in the picture above choosing a furry style is also a novel choice, light-colored tassels, pom-poms, knots, etc., are key elements in hanfu, and these are also great bonus points.
When wearing hanfu or other ancient-style clothes, what you need to pay attention to is not the accessories but the hairstyle. Modern hairstyles are generally simple and casual, which is very incongruous when paired with hanfu. Ancient-style hairstyles are usually symmetrical designs, which can make the face look smaller visually and appear more delicate. It is recommended to pair hair accessories that match the color of the hanfu, which can make the styling stand out and be eye-catching. If you want to add a fairy-like aura, choose a hair accessory with a ribbon; if you want a dignified feeling, choose a metal hair accessory; if you want to be cute and playful, choose a pom-pom design.
In the interview, a hanfu enthusiast told reporters that actually, spending money on buying hanfu is just the beginning. Subsequently, wanting to buy arm bands, traditional handbags, matching shoes, and even oiled paper umbrellas, round fans, etc., are also significant expenses. For headwear alone, there are hairpins, hair combs, hair sticks, hairbands, forehead jewels, hairpins, and so on. These can be made of pearls, jade, artificial flowers, and come in different colors and styles to match different types of hanfu. “The expenditure on peripheral products is no less than that on hanfu,” Qingqing said.
