This Spring Festival of the Year of the Rabbit, the girl named "PaPan Panda Wearing Hanfu in Britain" participated in many activities to promote Chinese Hanfu culture, but overall, she did not have a pleasant time. During this year's Spring Festival, South Korean cultural institutions and the British Museum held a performance to celebrate the Korean Lunar New Year, which triggered dissatisfaction among Chinese. The similar incident that Panda encountered was the "Horse Skirt Incident" triggered by Dior in July last year. At that time, Panda was one of the sponsors of the campaign against Dior's misappropriation of culture. However, in February of this year, Dior launched a short horseface skirt, which is another "article making" after Dior's "horseface skirt incident" was protested by Chinese people. "Last time our activities were not enough, we should better protect Chinese culture." The girl, who was "wearing Hanfu in Britain," also chose not to be a "keyboard man" this time, using practical actions to contribute to the protection and dissemination of Chinese culture overseas. In July 2022, Dior released a horseface skirt with a price of 29000 yuan, and wrote in the description on its official website: "This skirt uses the iconic Dior silhouette, which is a new elegant and fashionable piece." However, some Chinese netizens found that this skirt is almost identical to the traditional Chinese dress horseface skirt, pointing out that Dior is suspected of plagiarism. When she saw this on the internet, Panda was also very angry, and she continued to support the voice of Chinese on the internet. Until she heard that the Hanfu "Tongpao" from Paris, France, had held a protest in front of Dior's flagship store, she realized that if she was on the other side of the English Channel, she could also come out to support her, rather than continue to be a "keyboard man" online. So, Panda and several friends hit it off instantly, and seven people launched a group to recruit colleagues who could participate in the group. Unexpectedly, the response was very strong, and dozens of people were recruited at once. These participants were all dressed in Hanfu "gowns" in the UK, and some took a few hours' train ride from the northernmost towns of the UK to London to participate in the event. "At first, we didn't expect so many people to participate. After all, many people still don't want to show up, so we need someone to take the first step. With someone leading, everyone is very united," said Panda. On the morning of July 31, Panda and her fellow Chinese clothing "Tongpao" who participated in the event came to the door of the largest Dior store in central London, shouting "Stop cultural misappropriation" in Chinese and English over and over in front of the door, while distributing leaflets to tell onlookers of London that "horse face skirts are traditional Chinese clothing.". "Panda was wearing a light blue Hanfu upper garment and a horse face skirt with a landscape ink pattern underneath. She stood in the middle of the crowd, holding a sign that said, 'Chinese/HanFu/MaMian'.". In order to prove to the people of London that "the horse face skirt comes from China," a friend who participated in the event borrowed a Qing Dynasty horse face skirt from an antique dealer, and they held this antique horse
