I’ve always been curious, do people in China wear Hanfu to school or is it reserved solely for special occasions?

Nice dressese - beautiful cultural history - kind of suprised they once walked away from this ..

Chinese society and culture once in later 19th and early 20th century were under serious existential threat from Western imperialism and culture, many of them thought China had to walk away from Chinese traditions in order to modernize and survive, that also gave to the original rise of communism in China.

There's a movement about promoting Casual Hanfu in school, but so far wearing Hanfu in school is still rare.
