Wear clothes that reflect the characteristics of the character and highlight the background of the era.

The play "A Doll's House" is the masterpiece of Norwegian playwright Henrik Johan Ibsen. In 2014, the National Center for the Performing Arts put this work on stage. This was also the first time that the National Center for the Performing Arts' self-produced play was performed in a small theater. Different from the large space structure of the opera house, the small theater has a special viewing relationship. For this reason, the costume design of the play also has design characteristics that are different from those of the large theater performance.

The bank manager Helmer has a successful career, and his wife Nora is kind and beautiful. They are a happy couple in the eyes of the world. As Christmas approaches, the newly widowed Mrs. Lin Dan seeks help from Nora, hoping to get a job in Helmer's bank so that she can earn money to support her children. At this time, Krogstad, who also needs this position, threatens Nora with a secret. It turns out that in order to cure her husband Helmer's illness, Nora had forged signatures to borrow money to raise money. If this news was made public, her husband's social status would not be guaranteed. After learning about his wife's past actions, Helmer became furious and called Nora a "criminal" and a "dirty woman", saying that his future had been ruined.

When Krogstad was persuaded by Mrs. Lin Dan and returned the note, Helmer shouted happily: "Nora, I'm fine, I forgive you." But Nora had already seen her husband clearly. He only has status and reputation in his heart, and he is just a doll, a canary in a cage. So, after she woke up, she ran away decisively.

The costume design of "A Doll's House" strives to show the characters' personalities and situations. In the play, Nora is a beautiful middle-class housewife. The colors of her clothes are bright and the combination of cold and warm is layered. Nora's costume uses a lot of lace decorations, with small laces and small bows from top to bottom, which is warm and cute. This is a portrayal of Nora's leisurely and simple life in the superficial happiness, which also coincides with her family status as a doll and a canary in her husband's heart; Helmer is a relatively hypocritical, smug and socially status person, and his clothes are exquisite. The slight flamboyance is in line with his exposed and exaggerated personality.
