Click Beijing opera / jingju has a really interesting visual language in which i am mostly illiterate but wish not to be These were referenced off various google images; some of them i know the source and some i do not know the source. I will not be mentioning the sources on this site because most jingju was written about historical figures living in a time where every person you looked at and especially every woman suffered more human rights abuses than there are pearls on a jingju headdress. Most of these are studying one specific character's costume. She was played by Mei Lanfang once, which should not narrow it down whatsoever. Most designs are actually really really intricate! All of those little pieces are actually birds and they're symbolic! The further you look the more there is to learn!
