Really? I think it's a bit strange seeing really youthful looking girls smoking.

 

[ecec]

i guess it's the -it attitude the younger generation of models seems lacking nowadays, because theyre probably all way into themselves or absorbed in their health routine or beauty regimes or whatever, which is a total turn off, then du juan comes along and goes "pffft, who cares, let me show you how to liiiive"

Love the bottom left photo...she's showing more personality in her candids and I like...! She's really beautiful. Oh, to be able to run into her in Shanghai this May...!

 

[Faith Akiyama]

Did you guys know that she's in Vogue Italia March 2006? (Both issue AND supplement I think) I totally missed her the first time I flipped through my issue!

Will scan if anyone wants to see the editorials

 

[ecec]

me wants! me wants!

 

[Faith Akiyama]

I'll scan them when my Spring Break is over and when I go back to my high-speed connection on campus!

 

[sw33tricecakes]

Oh, please do, Faith!

wow, she smokes too. it seems smoking is the most common habit among models!

 

[ShanaLucas]

It's common along models because it helps keep the weight down. Although, I don't see Du Juan having any problems with her weight...

But maybe she is just posing with a friend's cigarette...?

Ecec, I love her smile in the Peter Som photos...

 

[funkalicious]

Well, there's no smoke coming out from her mouth..

 

[trusino]

Exactly what I was thinking. Though she's posed with a cigarette before...

I'm not against smoking or anything, but why do you need to do something like smoking (ruining your health) to be "living the life"? Yes, smoking definitely adds some kind of mysterious, rebellious, deep, even romantic feel to a person but i dont' see what's wrong with caring about your health and beuaty.
With that said, Du juan is definitely one of my fav models and my fav asian model for sure. I find her beauty very relatable and versatile. She looks so adorable sometimes but can also be very sultry, sexy, etc.

 

[ecec]

ha, i'm not going on a campaign against self preservation or self absorption or anything, at least not here of all places. if i didnt care for 'beauty' in the conventional sense i wouldn't have bothered to come on some model board to look at pretty faces in the first place. i was just making a point about being bored of really square & "preppy" models
