Chinese TV drama Court Lady gives full play to ancient costumes

"For example, the female characters' head wears are inspired by mural paintings of Mogao grotto in Dunhuang, northwest China's Gansu province," Song said. "We tried to reflect the essence of the beauty of the Tang Dynasty through our designs."

"Those intangible cultural heritage items are treasures which bring us back to the prosperous eras. They deserve to be seen and appreciated by today's audiences," Song added.
