With a female as the main character, Liu Fei's ''Red Shirt Girl'' presents females as a symbol of fashion. The girl is bald, showing her unique personality. The 20th Century young females’ liberal thoughts and revolutionary behavior have relieved them from traditional restraints and participated actively in social activities. Liu Fei has dressed the 20th Century females in school girl uniforms, associating it with the ever-changing millennium. The facial expressions and postures are exaggerated and unbridled, and the females’ posture and preen themselves in a fashion totally opposite of Chinese traditional female gentle and elegant behaviors. The laughing red lips stood out in the black and white human figure subverted the traditional way of not revealing the teeth when smiling. It also expresses a beautiful but fed up feeling.
