Well a lot the Chinese in China don't want their daughters to stop basic education and leave home at 14 to become a model in Milan or Paris. This is just the way of the Chinese culture. What I find with Du Juan and Mo Wandan is that they're the same age as the top early 20s models, but they seem to be smarter, and modeling is modeling, either clothes Made in China or couture in Dior. It's the modeling skills and attitude that makes the clothes look good. Looking at Mo Wandan at Dior you couldn't tell that ravishing creature was modeling the ugliest clothes before, but she has the poise, grace, and the looks.

Also, it's been said before but it's the whole China rising Superpower consciousness that makes the fashion world to use Asian models now.

quite true.

These are the ones I'm talking about.
But now when I look at them a second time, I am not so sure. they looked more like her in the magazine than they do on the computer.



Scanned by me from Nov. and Dec. 06 Allure.

The chinese model in that campaign was Zhou Xun or something

She wasn't in it

 

[dbear1000]

Sorry for the late response. Yes these ARE the f/w 06 ads with some Chinese actresses.

 

[dbear1000]

Ok. Thanks for you help Min-SH and Faith.
I guess it was just wishful thinking on my part, but you can see why I would think it was Du.

 

[ShanaLucas]

She's fine She hasn't quit at all -- she'll be in NYC, Milan, and Paris

Faith, you just rule. Thanks...I won't even question how you get this info...I'm just glad you get it! It's good to hear that we have more to look forward to with Du Juan.
