The project is done based on the story of Alcyone and Cyex in Zimmerman’s Metamorphoses, with drama being the main genre.

The overall costume is of a more casual finishing, utilizing the silky fabric to cover the figure and with the decoration on the costume, the status of the character is implied. The coloring is largely done using digital collage, the inclusion of which enables the texture of the robe to be better presented. At the same time, soft-blue and white is chosen as the main color to express the identity of the character, as it is a great symbolization of purity and faithfulness. The cold tone of the color blue also emphasises the grievance and loneliness of the character. Additionally, the wings on the back is derived from the blue and black colours of halcyon birds. In essence, the posing, color, texture and accessories of the costume are carefully thought after to present and express the situation and quality of Alcyone.
