Features: Run your fingers over the collar of Eileen Chang, brush the skirt of Yang Guifei, and when you're bold, even touch the rouge of Empress Dowager Cixi. With wisdom, she threads the needle and weaves the strings; with knowledge, she points east and says west. "Changing Clothes" is actually her rummaging through boxes in the backstage dressing room, while "Recording" is her stage. She appears on stage in either luxurious or simple attire, often speaking her own words rather than the original script.
She is a female columnist who once appeared alongside Louis C.K., Leung Man-tao, and Wang Shouzhi in the same column. She paints a vivid picture of the world of ancient and modern women's clothing, writing about qipaos, red skirts, cloaks, sashes, slippers, hats, oil-paper umbrellas, Xie Gong's clogs, jade hairpins, yellow rouge, gold bracelets, necklaces, tooth combs, and backs. She describes robes as white as snow and moist as jade, eyebrows as deep as ink, sleeves filled with fragrance. She leaves everyone in awe. She rides a "roller coaster" filled with colorful and various clothing, tumbling and weaving between new and old eras, leisurely reciting poetry and novels.
