The deep forest moon is on fire, and the smoke and snow are hunting back", in the northern realm of Cangmang, there lives a nomadic ethnic group that has continued from ancient times - the Orunchun people. They believe in a mysterious shamanic culture, take nature as gods, and revere mountains, forests, earth, and wilderness. They live in the vast Xing'an Mountains, with fewer than 10,000 people, and are one of the least populous ethnic minorities in china. From the morning sun illuminating the cold rock walls of Gaxian Cave, the Orunchun people issuing the cry of the beginning of life, to the modern industry entering the snowy land, they put down their shotguns and became the guardian gods of the mountains and forests on horseback. Divinity, wildness and spirituality have always lingered in the national genes, forming a free and strong, magnificent and mysterious aesthetic culture of the Orunchun people.
On September 5th, the People's Government of Olunchun Autonomous Banner and the famous national costume designer Jin Jingyi jointly created a "Shan He Sen Language" Chinese Orunchun Cultural Costume Show and Jin Jingyi Designer Brand Special Conference with traditional costumes as the source. A Jiang Dabing, member of the Standing Committee of the Olunchun Autonomous Banner Committee and executive deputy flag chief of the government, and Bai Pengying, member of the Standing Committee of the Flag Committee and director of the Propaganda Department, attended the press conference, and together with singers Ulantoya & Ulanguiya sisters and Guo Jun, actors Song Yunhao and Bai Yun, famous screenwriters Wu Haiyan, singers Wu Zhina, Shi Guangjun and other stars in the literary and art circles, they jointly witnessed the appearance of a splendid pearl in the treasure house of the Chinese national community at China International Fashion Week, touching the mysterious history and proud soul of the Olunchun people.
National Fashion: Praise the Mountains and Rivers speak the Sen language. With the evolution of the times, many ethnic minorities such as the Orunchun people have ended their safari life and begun to settle and multiply, and traditional culture has gradually declined in the integration of modern civilization. How to inherit the story of "hunter in the snow" with a fierce horse and a gun, how to adhere to the mission of the guardian deity of the mountain forest on horseback, and how to revitalize the rich and splendid multi-ethnic costumes have become the common thoughts of Olunchun and designer Jin Jingyi. They decided to make the nation fashionable and let the story spread, and thus, this Chinese Orunchun cultural costume show was born.

Three intangible cultural inheritors dressed in orunchun roe deer skin costumes unveiled the curtain of the "Shan He Sen Language" Chinese Olunchun cultural costume show with ancient singing, the show is covered with birch forests in golden autumn, and the autumn scenery of the northern country at this moment is infused with the solemn beauty of the place where the Olunchun ethnic group has lived for thousands of years.
The opening costume is derived from the ancient meaning of "Olunchun" "reindeer use", a white deer fairy wears the "Mihata" roe deer hat that blinds the beasts when the Orunchun people hunt, leading the small white deer and the roe deer to come to the snow, depicting the admiration and love of the Olunchun people for deer, containing the story of the Olunchun people, under the leadership of the party, from the cold winter to the spring and warm flowers, out of the mountains and forests to meet the new life. The designer has mixed a variety of Olunchun intangible cultural heritage in the details, absorbed the traditional costumes "bow scissors", "deer horns", "cloud curls" and other patterns, wrote wild poetry with modern fabrics, and praised the nature of mountains and rivers with traditional imagery.
Designer Jin Jingyi traced the historical process of the Orunchun people entering the wilderness mountain forest from Gaxian Cave and then integrating into civilized society, dividing the whole show into three paragraphs. Interweaving the brilliance of traditional costumes and modern fashion, artistically reproducing the intimate whispers of people and gods, people and mountains, and people and civilizations, depicting an aesthetic world derived from ancient legends and myths, mysterious and imaginative, representing oriental civilization and heralding the future, and fully exerting the free and free artistic creativity and the vigorous and courageous wilderness vitality of the Orunchun people.
China has been a unified multi-ethnic country since ancient times, and for thousands of years, all ethnic groups have jointly developed the splendid rivers and mountains of the motherland and the vast territory, jointly created a long history of China and a splendid Chinese civilization, and the traditional culture of all ethnic groups has been continuously enriched and built the spiritual homeland shared by the Chinese nation, and finally converged into the cultural identity and centripetal force of the Chinese nation.
Jin Jingyi, a national costume designer from the Daur ethnic group, deeply feels the same as General Secretary Xi Jinping said: "The pluralism and unity of the Chinese nation is a rich heritage left to us by our ancestors, and it is also a huge advantage in the development of our country." Over the years, she has led the work team to study the clothing culture of ethnic minorities in northern China, hoping to do her best to resist the erosion of time, and use the language of clothing to record the unique aesthetics of various ethnic groups, and her sense of mission and urgency urges her to continue to move forward in the vast land of China.

In particular, the forest queen's Chinese costume that appeared in the finale embodies the designer's integration ingenuity of "inheriting the trend as the weft", the overall heavy industry tailoring, the "butterfly fairy" that accompanies the queen to fly out, taken from the auspicious blessing image of the OrunChun ethnic group, full of designer Jin Jingyi's endless blessings for the endless forest and the endless blessing of the Olunchun national culture, drawing a perfect end to this precious national culture immersive "safari".
