I am in the sixth grade of primary school. My teacher asked us to look up information about ethnic characteristics. I want to write a composition on Friday. I want to write Miao costumes.

There are more than 200 kinds of Miao costumes for Miao girls in Qiandongnan Prefecture, which is the most varied and well-preserved area in China and even in the world, and is called "Miao Costume Museum". On the whole, Miao costumes have maintained the traditional weaving, embroidery, picking and dyeing techniques in China. While using one main technique, they often use other techniques, either picking embroidery, dyeing embroidery or ribbon embroidery, thus making these costumes colorful and showing distinctive national artistic characteristics. From the content point of view, clothing patterns are mostly based on various life images in daily life, which plays an important role in expressing meaning, identifying nationalities, branches and languages. These video records are called "epic worn on the body" by experts and scholars. From the modeling point of view, China's traditional line drawing or approximate line drawing modeling technique with single line as the outline of the pattern is adopted. From the perspective of production techniques, the five forms of weaving, sewing, splicing and cutting in the history of costume development are all examples in Miao costumes in southeastern Guizhou, with distinct historical levels, which can be called the exhibition hall of costume production history. From the color point of view, they are good at choosing all kinds of contrasting colors, and strive to pursue the richness of colors, generally red, black, white, yellow and blue. From the composition point of view, it does not emphasize the prominent theme, but only pays attention to the requirements of the overall sense of clothing. Formally, it can be divided into formal clothes and casual clothes. Dress-up is a kind of costume used for holiday etiquette and wedding. It is complex and gorgeous, which reflects the artistic level of Miao costumes. Casual clothes, the style is quieter and simpler than formal clothes, with less materials and less labor, suitable for daily wear. Besides formal and casual clothes, Miao costumes are different in age and region.

This is also the reason why Miao costumes are encyclopedias worn on the body.

Miao girls like to wear pleated skirts. There are more than 500 pleats on a skirt, with many layers, some as many as thirty or forty layers. These skirts, from weaving, dyeing, sewing to final drawing and embroidery, were all done by the girls themselves. Coupled with embroidered ribbons and flower chest pockets, it is really colorful and beautiful.

When it comes to "clothing", we have to think of "decoration".

The headdress includes a silver horn, a silver fan, a silver hat, a silver handkerchief, a silver floating head row, a silver hairpin, a silver pin, a silver crown flower, a silver net chain, a silver comb, silver earrings and a silver children's hat.

If the well-dressed Miao girls get together, it will definitely become a beautiful silver world. It is the nature of Miao girls to like to wear silver ornaments. They put them in a bun on their heads, about 20 cm high, and made exquisite silver crowns. There are six jagged silver wings inserted in front of the crown, most of which are decorated with Miao silver ornaments, such as playing pearls with dragons, exploring flowers with butterflies, rising sun in Feng Dan, birds flying towards the phoenix and swimming in the water. In some areas, in addition to silver pieces, silver horns with a height of about 1 m are inserted into the silver crown, and the tips of the horns float in color, which makes them more noble and rich. There is a silver ribbon at the lower edge of the silver crown, and a row of small silver pendants hang down. The silver collar worn around the neck has several layers, mostly made of silver pieces and small silver rings. Wearing a silver lock and a silver collar on his chest, wearing a silver cloak on his chest and back, and hanging many small silver bells. Earrings and bracelets are all made of silver. Only the two sleeves are embroidered with lux as the main tone, but the cuffs are also inlaid with a wide circle of silver ornaments. The costumes of Miao girls often weigh several kilograms, and some have been accumulated and passed down by generations. Known as "a fairy dressed in strange clothes and wrapped in white." The craftsmanship of Miao silver ornaments is gorgeous, exquisite and ingenious, which fully shows the wisdom and talent of Miao people.
