This time I tried Judy's styling from Zootopia, with the overall style leaning towards a mashup of vintage western and bar elements. The wig is a silver-gray curly hair design, and that pair of gray-white fluffy bunny ears on top of the head is the soul of the entire styling. To keep this pair of bunny ears secure, I clipped quite a few bobby pins into the hair net, and the stylist also helped sweep up the hair into complex braids; styling this part took quite a bit of time. In terms of makeup, I chose blue-purple contact lenses to echo the character's eye color, slightly upturned eyeliner, combined with pink-toned blush and soft lip makeup, making the overall look more energetic.

In terms of clothing details, I chose a light blue long-sleeve shirt as the inner layer, with white stripes and gold buttons at the cuffs, layered with a dark blue overall skirt. The skirt hem features brown lace and geometric pattern webbing, and some badges and a black tie are hung on the chest as decoration. The brown belt and small black fanny pack at the waist were also specially matched to increase the layering of the outfit. The combination of black glossy chunky-heel short boots and black short socks not only visually lengthens the leg lines, but also fits the character's capable feel.

The shooting scene was chosen in a real-world set decorated as an American country bar. The background is log-color wood-plank walls, decorated with deer head specimens, English posters, and some vintage ornaments. Various wine bottles, wooden barrels, shakers, and champagne are placed on the bar counter, alongside an iron stove and a red plaid suitcase. In the first picture, I chose to place both legs on the high bar stool, resting one hand on the sofa and greeting the lens with the other. The design of this pose is meant to highlight the boots and the overall rebelliousness, while letting the skirt's pleats fall naturally to showcase the tailoring details of the clothing. I was a bit worried about the center of gravity being unstable when first putting the legs up, but after adjusting the sitting posture, I found this angle particularly capable of showcasing the combination of the uniform and boots.

Picture two is standing behind the wooden bar counter. I rested my left hand on the edge of the bar, propped my chin with my right hand, and leaned forward slightly. This posture showcased more of the upper body details, such as the tie, shirt cuffs, and chest badges. The champagne bottles and glasses placed on the bar added a sense of daily life, and the light coming from the side made the skin texture very natural. To shoot these two sets of pictures well, we repeatedly communicated angles with the photographer. The bar environment itself has relatively dark lighting, and warm-toned lighting was added on-site to make the overall atmosphere look both retro and warm. There are many clothing and prop details this time, and I also repeatedly adjusted the skirt pleats and belt tightness during shooting breaks, striving to present the best state in front of the lens. The whole process was very enjoyable and gave me a deeper understanding of this styling.
