Rich embroidery, vibrant colors, and exquisite silver jewelry are the defining features of the traditional attire of China's Miao ethnic group. The skill of stitching Miao embroidery, passed down from generation to generation, is a unique and invaluable part of China's cultural heritage.

Miao embroidery primarily serves the purpose of adorning a Miao woman's ceremonial dress, which she proudly wears on her wedding day and other significant occasions. Over the centuries, this intricate art form has been carefully preserved and handed down from mothers to daughters, ensuring its continuity and cultural significance.
