Liu Yifei appeared in a wedding dress at the annual awards ceremony hosted by W Magazine on November 1, stirring up nostalgic emotions among viewers.
The actress wore a silver-white wedding gown from Tamara Ralph’s Fall/Winter 2026 Haute Couture collection. Featuring an elaborate satin train and a strapless bodice, the dress was paired with a veil, long white gloves, and high-end Bulgari jewelry, creating an elegant and ethereal look.
Her appearance on stage brought back memories of Bai Xiuzhu, the character she portrayed in the drama The Story of a Noble Family 22 years ago. “The girl from back then has finally put on her wedding dress,” one viewer commented. Others wrote, “I miss Bai Xiuzhu,” and “Bai Xiuzhu is still as beautiful as ever.”
According to Sohu, rather than entering through a conventional walkway, Liu Yifei slowly emerged from behind a golden curtain and ascended from a platform at the center of the stage. Fresh flowers, lighting, and music along the staircase were all specially arranged for her, creating a spectacular entrance.
