Yi dress
The costumes of the Yi people are colorful, unique in style, and have nearly 100 forms. In history, due to the numerous branches of Yi nationality and scattered residence, there are obvious differences in costumes, different styles, strong regional color, and various characteristics. In many areas of Liangshan, it is cold all the year round, and the climate changes little. Therefore, the clothing of Yi people is not seasonal, and chaerwa (Biyi) is worn all the year round. Yi costumes are rich in color, varied in style, and decorated with a large number of silver products and embroidery.
Yi clothing is usually made of pure wool by hand, from collecting wool, spinning into thread, dip dyeing, to weaving, cutting, embroidery, all by Yi People's hand.
On November 11, 2014, Yi costumes were listed in the fourth batch of national intangible cultural heritage list with the approval of the State Council.
In November 2019, the list of national intangible cultural heritage representative project protection units was announced, and Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture Cultural Center and Zhaojue County Cultural Relics Management Institute were qualified as Yi costume project protection units.
