The application of digital technology in the field of education is constantly deepening, and vocational colleges are actively exploring the integration path of excellent traditional culture and modern teaching models in aesthetic education. However, there are still many problems in the teaching of traditional clothing colors, which make it difficult for students to intuitively grasp the cultural background and practical application logic of traditional clothing colors. Based on this, the study first provides a brief introduction to the colors of traditional Chinese clothing, followed by an in-depth analysis of the significance of integrating traditional Chinese clothing colors into aesthetic education in vocational colleges under the background of digitization. A series of strategies for integrating traditional Chinese clothing colors into aesthetic education in vocational colleges under the background of digitization are proposed, in order to provide practical path references for vocational colleges to carry out aesthetic education teaching related to traditional clothing colors.
