I GREW TO LOVE FASHION... When I was young, I had short hair and wouldn’t wear dresses – I was a tomboy. My style is still laid-back, but it’s a bit chicer now [she’s not kidding; Xiao Xing arrived at The EDIT’s shoot in Marni and Kenzo].
I CAN BE A REBEL... My mother wouldn’t let me start modeling until I finished college, so my sister helped me to sneak out to enter the Elite Model Look competition. My mom soon found out when I won and was on television, but she was so proud of me.
CHANGE IS GOOD... I recently bleached my hair after a shoot in which I wore a blond wig and loved how it looked on me. I like mixing things up and the industry has responded really well to it – Alexander Wang saw it and wanted me to walk for his FW16 show.
THE BEST THING ABOUT MY JOB IS... You never know where your next stop is. My first campaign job was in Iceland and the experience will stay with me forever; it’s such an unbelievable place.
IT’S FUNNY... My name means ‘morning star’, as I was born at 2am, but I am not a morning person! I find it so hard to wake up. In fact, my friends call me ‘Panda’ because I love to sleep and eat.
