ABSTRACT

Ethnic costumes are an important part of traditional Chinese culture, and Taiwanese ethnic costumes reflect the traditional culture of Taiwan, carries symbols of Chinese culture and elements of the Chinese ethnic images. By exploring the relationship between the weaving techniques of the Atayal tribe, studying the characteristics and composition principles of fabric patterns, and exploring their module system, we can promote new materials, new technologies, and new styles in fabric design. We can also analyze the logical relationship of the Atayal tribe's fabric pattern shapes, form theoretical guidance and references for ethnic costume art, strengthen the consciousness of the Chinese nation as a community, and establish new concepts for the integration, dissemination, and education of Chinese ethnic costume culture.
