Many places even became great hits because of hanfu or the local customs. Qingyan ancient town of Guiyang city, the capital of Guizhou province, is one of them. Xiaoye, a local hanfu makeup designer of a local store said that they worked from 9:30 to 22:00 during the holiday.

Designer Daxia in Beijing also an individual photographer also had a very busy time. “I got a wide range of customers. They can be students, office workers, and moms with kids. Even the elder ones of 50 to 60 years old,” said Daxia. “And I feel like there’s great potential of this job as more and more people start to love hanfu.”

Xi’an in Shaanxi province used to be a capital city for 13 dynasties. It now has the largest number of Hanfu stores in China. Thus, the designers were extremely busy during the holiday.

Xiyao, a designer of the Grand Tang Mall, said that they had 12 designers ready for at least 10 customers each morning.
