Let's organize the makeup and styling details of this Yanqing original design. The wig uses a light golden-flax color. To match the character's youthful vibe, the top of the head was specially styled into an updo and fixed with a blue-and-white hair crown. The wispy bangs on the forehead and the long sideburns on both sides were trimmed into high-layer contours. The hair strands weren't deliberately styled stiffly, retaining a wind-blown dynamic feel so that it looks more lively in front of the lens. In terms of makeup, the base makeup pursues clarity and nature, with the focus placed on the eye makeup. The contact lenses were chosen in amber gold-brown, matched with eyeliner slightly elongated at the outer corners of the eyes to make the gaze look more focused. Light pink lipstick was used for the lips to neutralize the sharpness of the overall makeup look.

For the clothing matching, the outer robe of this original design uses a light gray-blue fabric with cloud pattern damask. The fabric has good drape, creating natural folds when walking. The sleeves received a special patchwork treatment, featuring gold embroidered patterns on a large area of black base fabric, forming a strong visual contrast with the light-colored body and adding overall substance and textural layering. Around the waist, a black multi-strap waistband was paired, with hanging black leather straps embellished with gold metal buckles. This design effectively cinches the loose robe, highlights the waistline, and prevents the overall look from appearing bulky.

The inner layer is a white stand-collar shirt, which nicely sets off the thin silver choker on the neck and the large hollow-carved pendant hanging below. For earrings, a pair of long tassel earrings was chosen, swaying slightly when turning the head or walking. On the feet, a pair of white platform short boots was matched, which not only supports the overly long hem but also elongates leg proportions, making it convenient for posing and shooting indoors.

Since it's an original design version based on the original setting, while retaining the character's iconic color scheme, many personal preference modifications were made to the style and materials. The black sleeves, multi-strap waistband, and fabric damask are all highlights of this outfit. Wearing this outfit takes a bit of time, especially adjusting the belt and fixing the hair crown, but seeing the overall effect in the mirror makes it all worth it. Full-length mirror selfies can completely record the pattern of the entire outfit and the matching of the boots, while the first two close-up selfies focus on showing the details of the hair accessories, earrings, neckpieces, and makeup. The drape of the robe and the texture of the fabric presented under indoor lighting are very clear, and the treatment of the bang edges doesn't look abrupt either. The costume-fitting process is also a process of constantly adjusting the position of accessories, and the final state presented matches the expectations for this original design very well.
