Beijing News On November 21, according to Japanese media reports, the famous film costume designer Emi Wada died at the age of 84. She has worked as a costume designer for many well-known film works such as "Hero" and "Ten Faces Ambush", and won the 58th Academy Award for Best Costume Design for Akira Kurosawa's "Chaos". In addition, she also participated in the costume design work of Xu Anhua's new film "The First Burning Incense" with illness.
Ma Sichun also posted on social platforms to mourn Wada Emi: "The year before filming "The First Burning Incense", she ran all over the set wearing goose-yellow canvas shoes, and would always give me a hug when she walked in. Working with her twice, taking a lot of group photos, all still in her little camera, she said 'wash it out for you next time we meet'. But today I only turned out this one of "The General is On" when I first met her on my phone. Teacher Wada has too many aesthetic works to be cherished, may she continue to decorate heaven with brocade satin, and there is her beauty in heaven and on earth. ”

The wonderful character shapes she created in "Hero", "Ten Faces Ambush" and the opera "Qin Shi Huang" will always live in people's hearts. We will miss you forever. Ms. Wada has gone all the way, may you be as dignified and beautiful as ever in heaven! ”
