The drama just started filming and the initial murmurings over female lead Dilraba Dilmurat‘s look for Love Beyond the Grave has now exploded as new filming fan pictures have come out. Dilraba’s fandom are furious over what they perceive as ugly, unflattering, and over-the-top accessorizing of her character along with heavy makeup. The Weibo page for the drama has dropped in subscriber numbers as her fans have been posted on both the drama page as well as the Weibo pages for people involved including investor Huang Xiaoming, Dilraba’s costars in this drama, the director, and the costume designer demanding to change her outfits. Her fandom created a detailed 10 page powerpoint itemizing what is wrong with her looks so far and showing suggested looks instead. The costumer designer is reportedly offended and has doubled down refusing to acknowledge the complaint and going ahead with his vision.

I'm following the whole mess being done by Dilraba's fandom on weibo. They're bullying every single human being they consider powerful enough to make changes including people who have nothing to do with the drama like actors from the same agency as Dilraba. You go to the weibo of anyone who have anything related to Dilraba and you see fans posting things there. The fandom lost their minds.
I'm kind hoping the fandom piss off people enough to cause trouble for Dilraba's career.
Seriously!!! OMG! I never like most of C-dramas more elaborated costume and hairpiece... Some of so laughable that it distract viewers from watching the acting.
I can see the concern of fans.. I have no opinion in this matter as I am not her a fan of her dramas , I do like her in variety shows. I feel I really dont have much right to judge the emotions of the fans. I will just standby and watch how this will erupt or maybe die down.
Just too much negative noise can affect the drama, positively or negatively, time will tell.
I will get my spoon ready for the sweet watermelon.
I've also been following the mess and I tell you it is a HUGE mess, I've seen them even go under Zhu Xu Dan's post about her airing drama to complain which to me is stupid and disgusting, I've also seen them blame so many ppl including actors and actresses that have no connection with the drama
I've seen the Reuters and yest I would say it's not looking good and they have a right to speak up but going rabid and attacking unrelated others is a no for me
Btw it's not only her wardrobe that is bad, fei yu's own is also bad, Wei zhiming's own is wayy worse
I thought this was a high budget drama
Why would you wish for Dilraba's downfall?! It's not her fault her fans are acting unhinged!
Her fans cause a ruckus everytime Dilraba stars in a costume drama. The truth is she looks too eurasian and doesn't fit the traditional Chinese costumes. I dare say Zhao Lusi is probably not prettier than her in normal costumes but even she outshines Dilraba in The Long Ballad. The only styling that fits her is Feng Jiu's so maybe she should just replicate that look.
That's what I have in mind. Reba's visuals are too difficult to style for the right taste of Chinese costume unless she just plays her genetic self from Xingjian. LOL.
Her outfits look horrible. I get why fans are mad. She doesn't need elaborate costumes, she is very pretty, put her in a potato sack, she'll look good....this looks comical.
The costume designs in this drama are really bad, and apparently Chen Feiyu's costume design was taken from an existing drama's design.
If this article is correct, The costume designer sound very arrogant.
Now that they mention it, her outfits make her look like a black Christmas tree or a witch… so I dunno what the designer is aiming for. But who knows it might look good on screen??? Hmmm
In an attempt to create a gothic appearance, the black glittering thingy on her is a bit old, archaic.
I am enjoying the popcorn.
This looks as if they stole from Luo Yunxi's wardrobe!
Anyway, if I were her fan I would worry more about the brain dead look of her co-star.
Lol forever. He looks like that in all his works but daddy paves the way for more and more roles so I suppose he doesn't care.
LOL. And again, LOL.
I don’t think her blood red lips help the overall look. Whatever they thought the darker she looks plus the male lead the more ominous it will feel. I guess they tried making their outfits dreary to fit the tone of the story but it just looks odd.
Are we sure this isn't an Addams Family remake? That look is nice...for Morticia.
Her black outfit reminds me of of Addams' Family Morticia. LOL
I'm kind of interested in this 10 page powerpoint lol
