Yi ethnic clothing in Weishan.

In the early morning, sunlight shines through the window of Weishan Wenhua Academy, illuminating the Yi ethnic clothing in a beautiful light. Yi ethnic clothing in Weishan is divided into five types according to region, and each type varies slightly in color and decoration according to personal aesthetics. Whether it's the bright colors of the Dongshan Yi ethnic clothing or the simple elegance of the Xishan Yi ethnic clothing, they all reflect the wisdom and aesthetic pursuits of the Yi people. Yi ethnic clothing favors traditional colors such as red, black, white, and yellow. These colors not only have strong ethnic characteristics but also carry profound symbolic meanings. Red represents passion and vitality, black symbolizes strength and solemnity, white symbolizes purity and sanctity, and yellow represents hope and energy. The patterns on Yi ethnic clothing are also rich and colorful. For example, dragon and phoenix patterns symbolize auspiciousness and authority, bird patterns represent freedom and hope, and fish patterns symbolize abundance and prosperity. This clothing is not only for daily wear but also a cultural carrier that holds the historical memory and spiritual sustenance of the Yi people. In Dali, fall in love with life and Yi ethnic clothing.
