The theme for this shoot was Holy Night Supper, capturing her appearance as the Avenger. For the outfit, I chose this purple velvet maxi dress paired with opera-length gloves and semi-sheer lace-trimmed purple pantyhose. The texture of the stockings produced a distinct sheen under the warm ambient lighting, and together with the black red-bottom high heels, it elongated the leg lines beautifully. The headpiece was custom-made for a snug fit; though it carried some weight, it thankfully didn't hinder my facial expressions.

The location was set around a vintage-style wooden bar counter and poker table. The warm yellow ambient glow complemented the character's icy, alluring aura exceptionally well. To capture a mood that felt both languid and imposing, I spent considerable time coordinating with photographer Shuye Yitong. While raising a leg on the bar stool looked dashing, keeping my balance was actually tricky and took multiple adjustments. Meanwhile, kneeling before the poker table required coordinating a hand gesture across the face with intense eye contact, taking repeated test shots to nail that tipsy yet dangerous vibe.

Since the character is fundamentally an Avenger, her expression needed to convey a complex blend of haughty disdain for her surroundings mixed with fatal temptation. The dress's low-cut neckline and lace detailing accentuated body contours nicely, which, combined with the gloves and stockings, delivered strong visual impact. With the liquor cabinet as a backdrop and a wine glass in hand, the entire atmosphere came together seamlessly. Posing was exhausting, but seeing that cold, desolate beauty in the final frames made every bit of effort worthwhile. This experience was truly unique—like stepping into a meticulously staged dinner play and briefly living the character's life within that space.
