Can I wear a hanfu to prom?

I was thinking of prom since I’m a junior this year and was planning for senior prom, and I thought it would be amazing to try clothes outside my culture, and I thought a hanfu was very beautiful; however, as a POC, I thought that maybe me wearing a hanfu to prom would be culturally offensive, especially since I’m not Asian, let alone Chinese, so I felt like it would be rude not to ask other people from that culture if it would be okay to wear a hanfu. So sorry if this post offends anyone; I really don’t want to be rude.

Edit: Does anyone know of any good websites where I can buy a hanfu? You guys are all so kind and amazing—thank you so much!
