Description
（简）整套服饰分为上衣，围腰，百褶裙。该地区苗族服饰喜用黑、白、红三色，服饰通体黑色为主，织锦及刺绣部分大体采用红色及白色点缀。此服饰运用了彩锦、数纱绣和挑花。服饰的主要图案为八角星图案、万字纹、并列的小人、回纹、曲折纹等古老的几何纹饰。这些图案又都均匀地分布在大的菱形几何纹中，在衣服的后背、前胸、围腰上进行装饰点缀，工整而有序。整套服饰庄重、典雅，图案如天上繁星点缀般灵动。服饰上古老的图案仿佛印证着革东—这一苗族分支久远的历史。
(ENG) Gedong Miao costume: comprises three parts: (i) top coat, (ii) bellyband and (iii) pleated skirt. Black, white and red are commonly used in Gedong Miao costumes. Black often forms the base colour of the costume, with brocades and embroideries in red and white. Coloured brocade, counted thread stitch and crossing stitch are used. It is decorated with ancient geometric ornamentations, including octagram patterns (the octagonal star is an ancient astrological map first discovered at the Gaimiao cultural site with pottery slabs displaying the octagonal star pattern dating back 7,800 years), Gammadia (an ancient fulu often considered as symbols of sun and fire), juxtaposed human figures, circular letter patterns and zigzag patterns. These patterns are evenly distributed within larger rhombus shaped patterns that embellish the back, chest and waist areas of the costume. These neat and orderly decorations add glimmer and shimmer to the costume, echoing the ways in which stars dot and embellish our night sky. The decorations complement the solemn and elegant nature of the costume. The ancient patterns on this costume are testimony to the rich history of the Gedongs, who are a branch of the Miao ethnic group.
