A bucket on the head - an almost archetypical costuming detail! There's no better way to visually express 'a bit confused but got the spirit' when it comes to fighting. Usually these characters are a bit of scaredycats, but judging from this one's face I think we have an exception. That wooden spatula/ladle is a nice extra touch!
Fan Ye is wearing a knitted pellerin or poncho on the drama's promotional pictures. I was wondering a bit about that, but now when I see we're in Qing (or perhaps Qing-ish) dynasty it checks out. Knitting has been a thing for at least one hundred years at this point.
I'm catching up on my youtube subscriptions and OH MY GOD Ash Bentley made a sexy rat.
I'm not even halfway through the video and I am CACKLING.
I love this so much.
Last episode of The Unclouded Soul, and I regret to inform you that Hong Ye has ditched the bathrobes ages ago. Instead he's more conforming to standard demon king wear, with dual purpose shoulders; they can either poke an eye out or serve as hangers for small items. And hey - they glitter!
A look at the current costuming work for a the Scarlet Pimpernel. See this beautiful dress? It’s for one of the key characters . That’s one of 50+ 1790s English and French period costumes that our team are busily making !! All from recycled fabrics and lace.
The show tour launches at Brixham Theatre on June 13th before touring nationwide and then during the autumn appearing on TV globally via the Vomo channel available via both Amazon Fire Tv and Roku

Ooooooh! It glitters!* Dibs on Hong Ye's demon king hanfu + H... Well, a _manequin_ shaped like Hou Minghao. I for sure can't carry that outfit and give it justice. But I am a big sucker for glitter so using it as decoration in my vast and completely fictional living room would do.

Production: You're not allowed more time at the embroidery machine! We're still paying off Bingzhu's uniform.
Clothes Designer: But... this is the protagonist!
P: You should have thought about that before you gave Bingzhu a full body sleeve _and a derpy dragon!_
CD: I told you it was a mistake! And you never allowed...
P *on their way out*: Can't heeear you!
*door slams*
CD: hrmpf! Guess I have to work some magic with what I have
A handy little chart for this drama:
_Good_ demon king - bath robes
_Evil_ demon king - stiff costume shoulders that out-shoulderpads the 80s.

Here you can see the difference between an officer and a regular in the Feiyu guard. The regulars' hats have a 'wreath' of vines, whereas the offers' are printed in full - and have a large, black pearl. Ie; the tiger face I talked about earlier is a mark of rank. When you see the top of the hat the tiger disolves into a mass of vines. I still think the illusion is intentional, mostly because the back flap is double tipped, vaguely resembling ears.
