The art and culture of the dress also has a social function that cannot be ignored, that is, the cohesion of the people, that is, the role of the "standard". This cohesion enables the Bai people to survive and develop. Mr. Fei Xiaotong said: "In order to strengthen national unity, a nation always tries to consolidate its *** with the same mentality, it is always necessary to emphasize some of the customs and habits of other nationalities, the characteristics of the way of life, and to give strong feelings, sublimation of it on behalf of the nation's logo." It is not difficult to imagine that without this cohesion, the ancestors of the Bai people would not have been able to go through that long course and survive tenaciously to become a modern nation under the conditions of the strong ethnic groups such as the forests. Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture is a multi-ethnic autonomous prefecture with Bai as the main ethnic group. For a long time, it has formed a pattern of "small gathering of nationalities and large mixed living of brotherly nationalities", and its traditional costumes seem to be very much the same, but in fact, no matter how similar they are, the Bai people can still identify their ethnicity from the special mark "clan mark" on the costumes.

Adults ear, hand more ornaments, chest often hanging silver three beard, five beard. The bride dress is more special, wearing a hat made of hundreds of colorful pom-poms, wearing a big red and green as the main color of the clothes, I think people are borrowed from the meaning of good luck. Bai men's clothing: mostly white lapel tops, buttons mostly nine to ten, the outer cover is a black lab coat or sheepskin lab coat, the lower body is also a twisted file of wide tube pants, feet wear shear mouth cowhide shoes; head wear white or light blue round big head. What cannot be ignored is the role of clan markers. Not only in the different traditional dress, but also in the same Bai tribe within its various branches of the dress often show a strong tribal characteristics. Due to the different geographic environments or socio-economic conditions at that time, there were differences in the production and use of costumes, which have been passed down to the present day.

The ancestors of the Bai people will use all kinds of means and opportunities to achieve this purpose, and each member of the Bai people must insist on wearing the traditional costumes handed down from their ancestors, which is precisely one of the effective means of strengthening this national feeling, and this traditional costume handed down is precisely the materialization of the struggle of the Bai people for the survival and development of their own nation over the course of thousands of years of history.
