How to Choose the First Chinese Traditional Dress for Man?
The man's first Chinese dress should be a set that is more daily, easy to match, unobtrusive and able to be worn with different occasions, don't choose a Chinese dress with wide sleeves, which is not friendly to beginners of Chinese costume.
The colors can refer to your usual habit of buying clothes. Generally speaking, the color of men's clothes should not be too bright and gorgeous, navy blue, gray, and dark green are all good choices. If the skin tone is darker, try to choose dark clothes, clothes should not be too much color and not too much pattern.
Also, try to avoid classic studio red and black color, and do not buy Chinese clothing in gold color. For white styles of Hanfu, you should also buy with caution.
