西南少数民族服饰纹样文化探析

Cultures of Costume Patterns of Southwest Minority Groups

西南地区是指包括云南、四川、贵州、西藏和广西在内的5个省区,这里幅员辽阔,有着浓郁的民族风情,在这片土地上生活着30多个少数民族,占我国少数民族总数的半数以上。在长期的发展进程中,逐步形成了各式各样的民族服饰和服饰纹样,成为西南地区民族族群的文化标识。从民族服饰纹样上,可以看到各民族的勤劳与智慧,也能反映出西南地区少数民族的文化内涵。文章从民族服饰纹样的仿生设计、审美意识以及图腾崇拜等几个方面进行分析,并以苗族、彝族以及壮族等部分少数民族为例来透视西南地区少数民族服饰纹样文化。

Southwest area refers to Yunnan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Tibet and Guangxi provinces, in which large area with rich ethnic customs, thirty plus minority groups live, occupying more than half of the total number of ethnic minorities in China. In the long developing process, nationality costumes patterns are formed, which become culture marks for southwest minority groups. Costume patterns reveal not only the diligence and wisdom of minority groups, but culture connotations. The paper analyzes cultures of costume patterns of southwest minority groups from designs, aesthetic sense and totem worship, taking Miao, Yi and Zhuang nationalities as examples.
