On a rustic runway in Guizhou, the “Flower-Like Ethnic” special showcased traditional dress from five groups—Miao, Yi, Gelao, Zhuang, and Han—turning the stage into a vivid tapestry of regional culture. The show offered an immersive encounter with folk artistry and living traditions.

Zhuang brocades and embroidered panels flowed like rippling fields, evoking agricultural harmony. Yi garments pulsed with red and flame motifs that spoke to fire-worship and a bold, heroic spirit. Gelao pieces favored cool greens and nature-inspired totems, expressing an ethic of forest coexistence. Miao models wore silver crowns and embroidered robes; their tinkling ornaments recalled mountain echoes and gave the costumes an epic, wearable quality.

More than a visual feast, the show served as a cross-regional cultural dialogue and a vivid promotion of minority heritage, presenting the region as a living museum of diverse traditions brought to life on stage.
