What are the characteristics of Zhuang costumes?

Zhuang costumes are characterized by:

Most Zhuang men's wear is a Tang suit with broken chest and double-breasted buttons, which is made of local homespun. They don't wear trousers, and have a short collar and double-breasted shirt with a pair of small pockets on the chest and two large pockets on the abdomen. The hem is folded inward into a wide edge, and the left and right sides of the lower edge are symmetrically slit.

Zhuang women's clothes are dignified and decent, simple and generous. Their general dress is blue and black, with slightly wider trouser legs, colorful printed or jacquard towels on their heads and exquisite aprons around their waists. Dressed in navy blue or dark blue short collar right lapel jacket, it can be divided into double lapel and partial lapel, lapel and lapel.

In Zhuang costume, there is a hidden pocket hidden in front of the abdomen, and several pairs of cloth buttons are sewn along the front edge. In remote mountainous areas, Zhuang women still wear clothes with broken breasts, collarless, embroidered with five-color patterns and withered.

Wear large black trousers with an apron around the waist, and blue, red and green silk and cotton cloth at the knees of the trousers. Wear sandals and shoulder pads at work. Wear embroidered shoes at fairs, concerts or festivals.
