Abstract

As an essential part of the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation, Miao embroidery boasts a long history and exquisite craftsmanship, carrying profound cultural connotations and spiritual meanings. This study aims to explore the understanding and awareness of Miao embroidery among contemporary youth, as well as the current status of its inheritance and development paths. Through surveys and literature analysis, the study finds that contemporary youth have some understanding of Miao embroidery, but few have in-depth knowledge, and the market for it is somewhat limited. The main inheritors of Miao embroidery include officials, schools, inheritors, and designers, who have played an important role in promoting the inheritance and innovation of Miao embroidery culture. At the same time, the application of Miao embroidery in youth clothing design demonstrates new development directions, incorporating modern elements to present a unique Oriental aesthetic charm. This study provides valuable references for the protection, inheritance, and modernization of Miao embroidery.
