Leila Tong Prefers Waiter Look to Elegant Lady



[The Sun 16/01/07]

In the mainland production "The Last Princess", Leila will be playing her character from the age of 16 to 30 and so will have many different looks through the series, including an elegant lady, wearing chipaos and being a bride. She says excitedly: "All the feminine images are very beautiful, but the costumes are too intricate and I am very afraid to walk around. The waiter outfit allows me to rush around and makes me feel more free. (Dressing as a man, you have to bind your breasts?) I don't find it hard, this is an advantage of being flat-chested. When I was younger, I had to play a young Leslie Cheung in one film and it was good fun."

As she will be working in Hengdian where it is freezing, she has to prepare plenty of warm packs every morning, but the wide sleeved costumes leave her susceptable to the cold wind: "The top layer is too wide and the skirt is very big, so the cold wind gets into those spaces."
