我们如今穿的各种颜色的衣服都是机器制作的。但如果古人想要穿色彩鲜艳的衣服，他们会怎么做呢？扎染就是一种实现的方法。
一千多年前，云南的白族人就用扎染的方法给他们的衣服染色。后来这项技艺变得非常流行，人们还把扎染的衣服作为礼物送给皇帝。
要进行扎染，你首先需要用工具把布系住或夹住。然后把折叠好的布放进染料里。白族人通常用一种植物来制作蓝色染料。由于布被折叠了，一些部分会变成深蓝色，而其他部分的颜色则较浅。当你展开布的时候，你会看到美丽的图案。
从20世纪60年代起，扎染在美国成为了一种时尚潮流。人们用富有想象力的方式对T恤和牛仔裤进行扎染。甚至美国的很多孩子都学习扎染。
在最近的一场著名时装秀上，一位意大利设计师用扎染连衣裙给人们带来了惊喜。扎染就像一个实验。在布被展开之前，人们无法想象它的图案。毫无疑问，扎染潮流从未真正消失过。
