The style of the Sanrio collaboration happens to match her originally lively temperament perfectly. This time in the studio, we specially arranged a dreamy blue and white floral cluster and a soft white plush blanket to complement this red and white dress. The skirt hem features a glossy red material, paired with a large area of white lace and bow decorations on the top. Wearing semi-transparent white tulle gloves on my hands, the overall look presents a sweet doll-like feel. Combined with her signature white twin-tails wig and that very visually prominent large red bow on top of her head, the layering of the overall styling becomes beautifully three-dimensional.

During the on-site shoot, we tried several different poses. The kneeling pose was meant to highlight a playful vibe, while the relaxed side-lying posture aimed to capture a lazy, dreamy instant. To match the Sanrio theme, we specially used light blue and pink hydrangea bouquets, along with a fluffy Cinnamoroll plushie as accents, keeping the color tone of the entire frame soft and cheerful.

The makeup this time mainly emphasized the expression of the eyes, leaning towards a translucent and elegant style so that it wouldn't clash with the red and white attire. The photographer's candid angles were fantastic, especially the translucency of the light and shadow hitting the white tulle, making me look like a glowing elf. In the process of cosplay, expressing both the character's liveliness and introversion simultaneously isn't easy; relying solely on facial expressions isn't enough, it also requires body language to make the frame more immersive. This shoot experimented with some semi-turned and limbs-extended compositions. In post-processing, apart from slightly adjusting the light, the texture of the photography studio backdrop was fully preserved. Sharing this set of photos is also to pass this sweet atmosphere along to everyone.
