Beijing opera costumes have a standard of character identity.

On the stage of Peking Opera, we can not see the python Song River, nor can we see the emperor wearing pleats. Tan Ji ER in Wangjiang Pavilion, although he was taken refuge in Taoist temple after his death, but because of his status as a bachelor, he wore plain flowers. But when she acts as a fisherman to seduce Yang Yat, she has to wear a pleat instead of wearing it. Mu Guiying and Hu San Niang are both female generals, and Mu Guiying wears hard and hard. The improvement comes from hard improvement, light and beautiful style, easy to wear, but the position of clothing is lower than hard. The reason is that Hu San Niang is not a regular army.

Peking opera costumes are not limited by times and seasons.

The traditional opera, no matter which dynasty, is basically universal, such as Wu Wang Fu in Shi Shi, Han Liu Xiu in the upper Tiantai, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin in the king's robe, Ming Dynasty Yongle, in the rouge Bao pleat, though it is a figure of thousands of years. Clothes & Accessories Basically the same thing, but one thing is to wear clothes that fit the emperor's identity.

Peking opera costumes are not single, clip, leather or cotton. In spite of summer or winter, actors wear water suits and protective clothing before wearing costumes. One is to protect costumes, the other is to cover up the skin. This is consistent with the traditional sense of clothing wear.
