For this, observation was performed using domestic and foreign literature records and videos, and characters were comparatively analyzed for makeup, hairstyle and costume. Then, study results found the following: First, the female character Katniss Everdeen revealed an image of fashionable high fashion with makeup and hairstyles which displayed modesty, calmness, activeness, aggressiveness, superiority and robustness through a makeover in the Hunger Games: Panem Rising. Second, Effie Trinket displayed an image of high fashion with artificial makeup and hairstyles in manmade, authoritative, exaggerative and satirical manners. Third, in the Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Katniss Everdeen delivered a leader’s image as a tough woman warrior with an active, aggressive and open-minded personality. Her makeup and hairstyles made the character more fashionable and active with great leadership. Lastly, Effie Trinket was expressed in artificial, ostentatious and exaggerated ways, maximizing the inflexible and fancy image.
