A Brief History of Taiwanese Clothing
Unsurprisingly for a nation that has been influenced by a variety of cultures, Taiwan has seen a range of clothing styles during different periods of its history.
To the untrained eye, the traditional costumes of the island's aborigines may seem of a piece and, in a way, they are. The weaving process was almost identical throughout the tribes. A squared-cloth system of weaving, involving a horizontal loom with a strap, was used to produce individual pieces, which were then sewn together to create beautiful patchworks. However, colors, patterns and decorations (including shells and beads) varied considerably from tribe to tribe. The Atayal, for example, whose women are expert weavers, favored red as it was said to be in tune with nature and ward off evil. The Paiwan, whose clothing is perhaps the most eye-catching, preferred dark blues and black with intricate patterns and ostentatious adornments.��
台灣服飾簡史
對一個受到多種文化影響的國家而言，台灣不意外地在其歷史的不同時期有著各種的服裝風格。
對外行人來說，這座島上原住民的傳統服飾可能看來很相似，在某方面來說也確實是如此。各部落的織造過程幾乎一模一樣。包含水平織布機與皮帶的方型布料織造系統被用來製造個別布疋，然後再縫在一起設計出美麗的拼布。然而，各部落間的用色、花樣和裝飾（包括罩衫與珠子）變化極大。舉例來說，女性皆為專業織造師的泰雅族偏好紅色，因為據說此色與大自然天人合一且能避開惡靈。服裝或許是最搶眼的排灣族則偏愛深藍色與黑色，搭配複雜精細的花樣以及絢麗的飾品。
