The Legend of Zhen Huan

Need to be recognized by the Imperial Palace clothing experts.

In the costume modeling of ancient costume drama, Chen Minzheng and Chen Tongxun have been partners.

Zheng Xiaolong's "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and the "m (Moon) biography" being filmed are their cooperation - Chen Tongxun is in charge of costume design, and Chen Minzheng is responsible for make-up.

Like Chen Minzheng, Chen Tongxun has encountered many challenges in making costume designs for the two dramas.

When he received the The Legend of Zhen Huan, Zheng Xiaolong said he wanted to find the movie "the last emperor" (Bernardo Bertolucci's director, John Lone and Joan Chen).

Chen Tongxun thought that the last emperor was a work more than 20 years ago. Although it is very classic, it does not necessarily satisfy the aesthetic and entertainment needs of the present audience.

Zheng Xiaolong also did not refute, let Chen Tongxun design according to his own idea, but also put forward a request: after the draft of fashion design, he will take the experts of the Imperial Palace's clothing together to see that experts can confirm.

"At that time I also smoked, and I could get two bags of anxiety all night."

Although he has studied professional knowledge of ancient costume history at Shanghai Theater Academy, Chen Tongxun still feels great pressure.

From getting the script to the design plan and then revising the plan, and then discussing the budget, designing the map and making the garments, Chen Tongxun spent four and a half months, and only more than 500 drawings were sketching. He picked out 200 sheets for Zheng Xiaolong to see. "It's hard to design the Qing palace drama basically in all stylists. How to make the audience distinguish the authenticity of the character's modeling is pressure."

Biography of Yue

People in the Qin Dynasty liked to wear black clothes. It was too ugly.

There are also difficulties in the fashion design of "Yue Yue Zhuan".

Zheng Xiaolong first praised The Legend of Zhen Huan's "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "Red Sorghum" were very successful, and then put forward the "harsh" request: "Yue biography" this time to do the benchmarking industry.

Chen Tongxun said with a bitter smile, "this is very difficult.

The best thing to do is the Tang Dynasty. Not only is the era open, but also the colors and styles of the clothes are gorgeous.

But Qin is not the same. According to history, clothing belongs to the black grey system. The TV series can't be made into black grey. It's too ugly.

In order to find the right solution, Chen Tongxun searched a lot of Han Dynasty characters who engraved Han Dynasty characters, and found some characters at that time. "For example, the richer the people in Qin Dynasty are, the more clothes they wear, the longer the sleeves and the clothes on the floor will be."

It is because "the more money you wear, the more clothes you wear," the clothes of Sun Li and Liu Tao reach 12 levels, and each layer has different colors. When designing the costumes, Chen Tongxun finds that the color is almost used up. Finally, the clothes can be looked more hierarchical by reducing the saturation of different colors.

Chen Tongxun jokingly told the reporters: "every time I finish the costume modeling of a play, I will immediately empty my head and forget all the design process and details."
