Yang Liping, The "Peacock Princess", Opened Her Screen To Present The World Of Dancing, And Her Dancing Clothes Were Amazingly Expensive

Since the strong return of this year's CCTV Spring Festival Gala with "Love of the Sparrow", the young "Peacock Princess" Yang Liping has become the focus again. From September 28 to 30, Yang Liping, 54, will complete her 40 years of stage career with the new dance drama Peacock at the Hangzhou Theater. Yang Liping also invited the Oscar "Best Fine Arts" for this magnificent dream of farewell Design ”The award-winning and famous visual artist Ye Jintian acted as the art director and choreography costume modeling. As for Yang Liping's "battle robe", Ye Jintian, who was originally from Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, told the Times reporter in Hong Kong style Mandarin: "We will not use a peacock feather, but pay attention to temperament and spirit!"

Ye Jintian, a famous artist who works in clothing, visual art, film art and contemporary art, is one of the most important Chinese artists who let the world know the beauty of oriental culture and art. His aesthetic concept of "New Orientalism" conveys Chinese traditional culture in a very modern way. Since he participated in the first film "True Hero" in 1986, his attainments in costume art in the film and drama fields have won him numerous praises. Whether it is Guan Jinpeng's Rouge Buckle, Feng Xiaogang's Night Banquet or John Woo's Red Cliff, Ye Jintian gives full play to the aesthetics of "New Orientalism". Especially in 2001, he won the Oscar for "Best Art Design" with the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

As one of the best masters in the industry, many dancers have approached Ye Jintian for cooperation, but in the end, Ye Jintian only chose Yang Liping because in his opinion, Peacock is very important to her. "Yang Liping is a born dancer. She has too much energy to release." Ye Jintian admitted that he had seen too many beautiful women in his life, "But Yang Liping has something different. I think it is a belief! She is very simple and pure, so she can always make great things. I think she and I are the same kind, both perfectionists, and are obsessed with art!"

Although he has rich design experience, Ye Jintian repeatedly sighs that the clothes of Peacock are the most difficult clothes he has ever made in his life! In "Love of the Sparrow", the blue peacock dance dress was sewn with real peacock feathers by Yunnan post-80s local designer Stone. Although the dance dress is quite beautiful, it weighs 8 kg, which adds a lot of difficulties to Yang Liping's stage performance. So this time, Ye Jintian said that he would not use a peacock feather, but should seize the temperament and spirit! "First, it is not environmentally friendly. Second, peacock feathers are not suitable for making dance clothes, which is not easy to collect and maintain. Third, it is too heavy, which not only makes Miss Yang's waist uncomfortable, but also poses a great test to her balance."

The first performance of "Peacock" is coming, but this dress, which is said to cost 70000 yuan, has not appeared yet. "It has been changed hundreds of times, but it has not been finalized," said Ye Jintian. However, Sa Dingding, who sang the finale of the play, told reporters that she had visited Ye Jintian's studio before and had seen semi-finished products. "You know Master Ye is good at diversified expression. Although I only see materials and semi-finished products, I can be sure that this dance dress is very promising."
