The Peking Opera is one of the most representative cultural aspects of China. It includes China's traditional specialties, such as stage performance, stage background, and costumes. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characters and the costume characteristics of the Peking Opera to present fashion design. This research is meaningful for spreading the Peking Opera to the world by applying China's traditional costumes to fashion design. Based on the cultural background of the Peking Opera and the analysis of the opera costume, four sets of women's clothes were made by using the traditional Chinese elements. The conclusions are as follows. First, traditional features such as patterns, colors, and styles from Peking Opera costumes were used in fashion design. The colors and patterns use Chinese traditional aesthetics to carry out contemporary fashion design and apply creative materials. Second, the neoprene used to create the items is a material suitable for the modern design of the traditional Peking Opera costumes. Neoprene has good elasticity and can be cut and sewn in a variety of ways. It can also satisfy the three-dimensional atmosphere and rich morphological changes found in Peking Opera costumes. In addition, a combination of thin chiffon and mesh materials is also suitable for the development of modern designs. Finally, in order to show the effects of traditional works, the patterns were finished by hand-painting. The hand-painted works were then scanned and printed on the material by the digital printing techniques. At the conclusion, the traditional features and feelings of the contemporary designs were presented.

The Beijing Opera is one of the leading representatives of Chinese culture, which includes literature, music, dance, martial arts, and a type of performance that stems from the Chinese cultural history that is still relevant today. The purpose of this study is to develop fashion-cultural products from the Lian Pu of the Beijing Opera, a Chinese cultural tradition that receives abundant positive feedback from around the world, showing its value in both academic and practical fields. This study was carried out first as a theoretical study of the literature, definition and types of facial make up used in the Opera, as a way of examining the formative aspect. Secondly, an analysis was conducted on the main characters, 'Guan Yu' and 'Zhang Fei' of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", 'Li Kiu' and 'Lu Zhishen' of "All Men are Brothers" and 'Monkey King' of "Journey to West", employing the collection belonging to 'Yongqi Zhao' who is an expert on the Chinese Beijing Opera. Thirdly, two concepts were categorized, based on the analytic results of the abovementioned characters, each of which were then further categorized into three sub concepts. In regard to cultural development designs, the results of an analysis on the facial make-up color, form, and texture of the four main characters were utilized to construct the themes, "Modern Chic" and "Traditional Splendor". The simplest form that has been represented in the four figures has been applied to "Modern Chic" to show a modern image in which black, white and light blue has been used alongside the vivid red, which is a Chinese favorite, to highlight the characters. In "Traditional Splendor", which is focused on the stage art of the Opera, we see more artistic traditions and colors, to further appeal to our emotions. Traditional motifs have been applied using traditional Chinese arts, in order to develop strong and brilliant colors. The two styles of cultural products were developed in the form of women's scarves and men's ties; a total of 24 designs were expressed, using Illustrator CS6. In the final step, 4 scarves and 6 ties were produced as a sample, using high quality silk. The development of these cultural fashion products will bring an opportunity to show how Chinese traditional culture can be widely utilized in commercial market design.

Main objects to analyze are the characteristics of four main roles in BO and the patterns, symbols, ornaments and traditions of Beijing Opera facial makeup("BOFM"). Four main roles are Sheng, Tan, Ching and Chou, categorized by gender, age, social position and personality. The result to analyze symbolistic meanings and characteristics of makeups for the roles in BO are as follows: the patterns and colors of BOFM function as explanations to help audiences understand each role's personality and dramatic situations as well as provide hints about the development and ending of an opera: that is, BO makeup is a communicative intermediary between audiences and actors in BO. It tends to follow the stereotypes, which conventionally dress and exaggerate the characters of roles, and copy the traditional Chinese perception about colors. Thus, by the metaphysical and typical expression of BOFM, Chinese people have not been pursuing the realism in opera but applying BO makeup to a mutual communication method between audiences and performing artists as to share their collective cultural heritages and spirits. Threfore, BO makeup has been an interacting language between the two entities and grown within the history of BO as a beauty art to highlight a BO by its unique systems, ornaments and beauty.

중국의 티베트 가극은 높은 수준의 종합성을 갖춘 연극 형식으로, 서양 연극의 현실성과 중국 연극의 사의(写意)뜻을 결합한 교육 미학적 특징을 지닌다. 구체적인 표현 형식으로는 가면극, 마당극, 의식극, 종교극의 형식을 겸하고 있다. 티베트 가극은 지방극의 한 종류로 높은 연구 가치를 지니는데, 이는 교육적 미적 특성에 의해 결정되는 것이다. 세계 3대 희곡은 인도의 법극, 고대 그리스의 희곡, 중국의 희곡으로 이들은 각각 다른 표현 형식과 교육 미학적 특징을 갖고 있다. 티베트 전통극은 발원지의 특수성 때문에 이 3대 희곡의 부분 표현 형식을 종합적으로 이어왔다. 고대 그리스 비극은 디오니소스 제사에서 유래한 것으로 초기 의식적 동작의 공연에서 남자들이 탈을 쓰고 연기했으며, 티베트 연극인 아체라모에서도 남자들이 탈을 쓰고 배역을 맡았다. 그 가면은 민간의 짐승 토템 동작과 종교적 무언극이자 액땜의식인 창무(羌姆)에서 유래하였다. 인도의 법극은 그 역사가 길기 때문에 <무론(舞论)>에 기재되어 있는 것을 제외하고 구체적인 공연 형태는 이미 알 수 없지만 <무론(舞论)>에 관한 기록과 관련, 티베트 가극의 시작 부분에서 "온바", "자루", "라무"이 세인물의 활용은 법극의 '개념 인물극'이 지닌 특징을 가지고 있다. 또한 티베트 가극은 민간 설창이야기를 각본으로 한 가무를 공연 형식으로 진행하고, 신에게 제사 지내는 것을 목적으로 하는 것은 중국 희곡의 교육 심미적 특징을 계승하는 것으로 중국 전통 희곡의 중요한 한 부분을 구성하는 것이다. 본 논문은 캉바 가극 공연에서 가면이 지닌 교육적 의미, 캉바 가극 공연의 의식 생성, 캉바 가극 공연의 반주에 맞추어 노래하고 춤추는 것 등 3가지 교육 심미적 특징에 관해 서술한다.
