In your sixth picture, the one depicting a banquet or restaurant with a pink floor, what are the white hats with flowers coming out of them?

 

They are silver hats as traditionally worn by Dong (and some other ethnic minorities, Miao, Yao) women. Today, most only wear them on festival days, but I do know a few people who wear them every day.

 

They are very heavy!

 

Here is a selfie of one young friend wearing one. (But her clothes are Miao style rather than Dong. Posted with her permission.)
