In many ancient costume or xianxia (仙侠) dramas nowadays, the same costume stylist is often used, so it's easy to have some "dressing alike" situations. Bai Lu and Li Yitong not only wore the same clothes but also had the same hairstyle. They both had the little fox makeup and styling. Moreover, there is only a four - year age gap between Li Yitong and Bai Lu. Many people even say they look like twins and sometimes can't tell them apart. But with the same Hanfu and hairstyle this time, unexpectedly, Bai Lu looks more like Li Yitong's elder sister.
Analysis of Bai Lu's Hairstyle and Appearance in Xianxia Drama
First, let's look at the hairstyle. There are two frizzy ponytails on the head, highlighting the little fox's liveliness and playfulness. Double ponytails also make one look more innocent.
Xianxia Hanfu usually has a slightly exaggerated beauty, creating an effect of a mountain elf. Bai Lu is just like this. From afar, she looks exactly like a little fox from the forest taking its first step into the world, lively and a bit cute. Bai Lu's face and figure are quite ordinary. With a face shape more like that of a green - clothed actress, playing a xianxia role would create a sense of strangeness, just like if Tang Seng played the Monkey King, lacking the light and dreamy effect of xianxia.
Description of Bai Lu's Costume
The skirt is a long gown with a camisole and tassels. Half of it is tie - dyed and half is pure white. The irregular skirt design also brings her a bit of lively beauty. Some gourd - shaped pendants are added to the waist for decoration, making it not look too monotonous. It emphasizes a kind of messiness, and whether it looks good depends entirely on one's figure and appearance.
This makeup and Hanfu really suit Bai Lu. They make her face look smaller, and her hair looks fluffy, showing the side of a little animal. This is definitely Bai Lu's most beautiful makeup and styling.
Evaluation of Bai Lu in Xianxia Role
The cutest part is the fluffy wristbands, looking like little cat paws. Actually, if you look closely, Bai Lu has a grand and generous appearance. Xianxia roles are more suitable for those with oval faces. Without exception, in this drama, Bai Lu was overshadowed again. The second female lead, Luwa, stole all the limelight. Every time Bai Lu plays a xianxia role, she is outshined by the second female lead, indicating that she is really not outstanding in xianxia dramas.
Analysis of Li Yitong's Makeup and Styling
Li Yitong, who is jokingly called Bai Lu's twin sister by netizens, also has the same makeup and styling. It's obvious to see the difference without me saying much. It can only be said that xianxia roles are more pleasing to the eye when played by people with slender limbs, without any sense of clumsiness. Li Yitong also has the same innocent look and spiritual eyes. Her clothing is more exaggerated and revealing, but because of her pure face, it doesn't seem vulgar.
The spiky hair adds a bit of messy and broken beauty to her. Just sitting there, one can lianxiang (联想) to many scenes, like the first meeting between the heroine and the hero or the scene at the end of the drama when they may never see each other again.
Li Yitong's Desert Exotic Costume
There is also her desert exotic costume. Wearing a red gauze hat, she looks pure and bright. The red Dunhuang - style clothing has the effect of a cinnabar mole, making people unforgettable. One side profile can make people fall in love at first sight. Although many people say Bai Lu and Li Yitong look like twins, I think Li Yitong is more stylish.
This exotic costume is mainly made of thin gauze. It seems to cover her tightly, but it also reveals her fair arms, creating a kind of subtle temptation. It's very suitable for dancing. Li Yitong really looks young. Although she is only four years older than Bai Lu, she looks like she's still in her twenties. Actors don't have to worry about their age. If one has a naturally young - looking face, they can still be accepted in ancient idol dramas!
Li Yitong's Acting Career
Li Yitong has also starred in many dramas. She has good resources and a good appearance, but she has a cold constitution. She shines as a supporting role, but as the leading role, there always seems to be something missing. For example, she also appeared in "The Knockout", but everyone else got recognized except her, and she didn't get any benefits from it.
So, who do you think looks more beautiful in the same clothing?
