Lion dance is a form of traditional dance in Chinese culture that mimics the movement of a lion. It is often performed at Chinese New Year and other Chinese festivals to bring good fortune. Gifs above are of Chinese Southern Lions in Fo Shan, Guangdong. The Shifu using a brush to dot the lion is known as “awakening of the lion” ceremony, to wake the lion for performance. Below is what the Shifu will shout out in the ceremony.

There is one with different dances here on bilibili
Hi, I have a few questions — are there any new trends in the hanfu movement you’re fond of/don’t like? Why or why not?
Is there a website out there that complies a list of the most popular and active hanfu taobao shops? Or even just a “top XX hanfu taobao shops of 20XX”? A lot of my favs aren’t available or the shops have closed so i don’t know where to really look anymore haha
Hello~ Thanks for the ask.
Ok, to be frank, I am not really following the fashion closely nowadays because I am neither on little red book nor douyin. I followed a few bots on weibo but they are generally only reblog the more “authentic Han” style products. For example my friend told me that heziqun was very hot in 2022 and she received a lot of requests but I maybe saw 2 or 3 heziquns on my dash for the whole year.
汉服资讯 summarizes top ten shops of the month/year but it is a paid service (but you can google the title and see what will come out). In December 2022, the top 10 hanfu shops are:
十三余
织造司
重回汉唐
七月夕
钟灵记
池夏
游园惊梦
织羽集
远山乔
乌扣旗舰店 (specialize in children hanfu)
There is also an official account on wechat called 汉服安莉 that can be used to check if the shop is authentic.
New trend I like: pockets on mamianqun! They usually couldn’t hold anything heavier than a card because it will mess with the smoothness of the pleats (especially in skirts made with lighter fabric) but one can put their hands in it and that is enough for me.
Dislike stuff below (basically just rants):

OP: “Our confirmed-bachelorette aunt has arrived for the new year bearing lucky money”
It is a custom during Chinese New Year for elders to give the younger generation lucky money, typically in a red envelope. The aunt is holding RMB¥100 bills, around USD$~15 per bill.
Probable Yuezhi soldier in red jacket and trousers, from Xinjiang. Embroidered in Hellenistic style, with motif of a centaur, 2nd C. BCE - 2nd C. CE. Sampul, Ürümqi Xinjiang Region Museum. I tried to find as high-res a version of this as I could. It would appear both his eyes and hair are based on a similar blue threading, yet his eyebrows seem to be based on a reddish thread.
"The Great Yuezhi are located about seven thousand li [2,910 km] north of India. Their land is at a high altitude; the climate is dry; the region is remote. The king of the state calls himself "son of heaven". There are so many riding horses in that country that the number often reaches several hundred thousand. City layouts and palaces are quite similar to those of Daqin [the Roman Empire]. The skin of the people there is reddish white. People are skillful at horse archery. Local products, rarities, treasures, clothing, and upholstery are very good, and even India cannot compare with it."
— Wan Zhen, The Yiwu Zhi (3rd century CE)

I wrote an article about Chinese furniture in 2017 for Popular Woodworking. I covered the types and styles of Chinese furniture, how it influenced period furniture, and why those joints are so dang complicated. They reposted the article on their website today, and it holds up well, if I say so myself. Hope you enjoy it.
