Impeccable
August 3rd, 2010 Janelle comments (59)Vogue China celebrates its 5th anniversary with a stellar salute to Asian talent; the magazine’s dual September covers feature the phenomenal cast of Liu Wen, Shu Pei, Ming Xi, Fei Fei Sun and Tao Okamoto in stunning crimson looks from Alexander Wang. The contrasting images by Peter Lindbergh & Daniel Jackson are strong, elegant and reflect the unique beauty of each girl while showing the verstaility of Wang’s designs; it is amazing how these looks go from classic to modern just with a quick change of hair and makeup.

Also, which cover do you guys like better? I’m partial to the first shot with the slicked back hair and beautiful red lipstick, such a classic image.

Love Tao. pretty amazing cover (L)

I torn because the slicked hairstyle is cool but the girls look so beautiful with the natural look.

Liu Wen is such a star, and the positioning of the models shows it! Fei Fei is so stunning, though – def one to watch!

I love these 2 covers!!
I think Tao looks especially beautiful with the natural look.
But I prefer the 1st cover look for the Chinese ladies.

Love the most asian girls, but when I thought that Liu Wen was the most beautiful of all asian, there came Fei Fei Sun
Miss Du Juan and Hye Park

Fei Fei steals the show for me. Especially in the 2nd shot. How gorgeous is she?
August 3rd, 2010

the 2nd natural look cover is just stunningly beautiful
August 3rd, 2010

Can’t make it out whether they are girls or boys..

Who is the girl in the bottom left, in the second cover?? Just incredibly gorgeous..
August 3rd, 2010

Tao should really good down the androgynous chic look. I think this will make her stand out more! She could be the Asian version of Freja Beha who’s clearly the hottest Supermodel right now!

I love the first one, Iam a sucker for classicbeauty, thank god the eyebrows are back in fashion (favourite ever makeup, sans dirt was jeremy scott men at work s/s 2008), but the girls faces look sSO beautiful in the natural one. I would buy both, so much better than other boring covers this month (ahem vogue UK).

i miss Du Juan and Hye Park as well. I also started liking Han Jin a lot more after she kinda fell off the international runway circuit, she has such a wicked face for editorial work! I am ashamed to admit it took me a long time to appreciate her beauty.
Also Fei Fei is gorgeous here!

I just have to say.. they are perfect!!! stunning and flawless beautiful women!!! they should also do mens version too… like Philip Huang, David Chiang, Allen Tsi, Rojam Wang, and one more lol

FEI FEI SUN ! shes looks amazing in the second cover! the wind caught her hair just right its crazy how she looks. I like the 1st cover more its speaks fall and its chic and classic.

sleek hair and red lips with bright lighting definitely pops and works better for oriental girls.
and the other cover would’ve been better with caucasian girls.

I am curious about your taste,The two covers are too ugly,as our Chinese taste.I don’t know why you are think it beautiful
August 4th, 2010

Wow, my eyes went straight to Fei Fei Sun. She is so gorgeous. Ming Xi looks nice too.
I don’t care for the rest.
BTW, Tao isn’t even chinese.

IMPECCABLE INDEED!!! I couldn’t stop staring @ these covers especially the second one
August 4th, 2010

There’s something off-center about both covers that annoys me a little, but they look so good I can overlook it.
August 4th, 2010

Tao is not Chinese…
August 4th, 2010

wish Du Juan was on the cover also
August 4th, 2010

The right cover is stunning . I love it!

Of course Tao isn’t Chinese… I don’t think anyone said that she was.

I also like the first cover more. I am also impressed at how they managed to make Liu Wen look bad, and I usually love her work.

“Vogue China celebrates its 5th anniversary with a stellar salute to Asian talent”
notice the word ASIAN.not CHINESE no one said tao is chinese…
..
j’adore this; the contrast is really bold
i agree with many others that fei fei really looks stellar. i wouldnt be surprised if she gets on the top 50 list some time in the future
August 4th, 2010

they all got a very similar look, Tao stands out more, others just the same. i’m a big fan of orental eye slanted eye look. but i wish the west would appriciate all sorts of chinese beauty. china is actually a very diverse country with many different ethnics. but seems the west only like this one type of look which is a real shame. in fact these girls are classified as ‘ugly’ from chinese perception, i know high fashion is dominated by western designers but since china has becoming the most important luxury fahsion market, it’d be nice if the west can at least use different types of chinese look to embrace the diversity of Asian looks.

wow… an ode to East-Asian girls… that’s pretty amazing…!
i love the fact that Vogue China never gives up on Chinese-descent and East-Asian-descent girls while you see Asian publications such as Vogue Nippon/Korea and Numero Nippon continuously using Caucasian models for their covers and editorials to appear to be “international”…
good luck to all them… i hope they all have a fun-filled and successful career…
while Du Juan, Hye Park, Tao and Liu Wen be the leaders of the pack, new talents like Fei Fei and Ming Xi are certainly proving that they’re forces to be reckoned with…
*also, something to think about… i’d like to see these girls being shot by less commercial photographers such as Mert & Marcus, Terry Richardson and Inez…

Most people of yours like the covers.I’m surprize about this.You don’t know,in our Chinese forums,Almost everyone think they’re too low.Especially Liu Wen,her sights notice us she can’t eat anything several days.Maybe the Western and Eastern are different about beauty
August 4th, 2010

@ Yu Hang: Maybe? it’s just like an american and an english team meeting to play “football”; if they’re smart enough to understand they mean two different things it’s ok… but most of the times (what happens in fashion and the W/E thing at issue) they just play their own game until the end! A MESSY MESS!!!
Honestly I don’t follow China so much, but in Japan that’s exactly what happens… Europeans and Americans who work there in fashion most of the times “just play football on a foreign soccer field”, and it’s such a (messy) shame… *_*’
PS yes, I love stupid metaphors!

i love the second one. it’s more relaxed and fresh. it has a natural flair to it. the first one looks stiff and seems like they ran out of space.

August 5th, 2010

actually, many chinese dont like theses 2 covers. the left one makes the girls much older. the colors of the right one cant be worse.

Is Liu Wen the most beautiful Asian face in the industry?
Definitely the Face of the East!
August 5th, 2010

Fei Fei Sun totally owns the 2nd cover
August 6th, 2010

as much as I love Tao, they should have used Du Juan instead…after all it is a Vogue China cover, but perhaps Du’s days are over (haven’t seen much of her lately)??

The first cover looks like a Pantene ad, the other one is okay.
August 7th, 2010

gggrrrhhh…..!!!!!! can they showcase the other asian look such as thais, filipinas and indonesians. i think they are asian too. darker skin and wide eyes… those were the characteristics of this south east asian girls.
August 7th, 2010
at 11:47 am
Well done ASIAN girls!!!!
but on the right cover Shupei’s a bit weird.her face seems darker.
August 7th, 2010
at 5:05 pm
Never really noticed Shu Pei until now. Loving all the girls but she’s my favorite. She looks amazing in the Gap campaign.
August 7th, 2010
at 9:56 pm
hmmm love them. They are the Asian top models at the moment.I prefer them in natural make-up on the 2nd cover.
August 8th, 2010
at 12:27 am
GOD!What happen with Shu Pei’s face??
August 10th, 2010

Yu Hang: I am a Chinese as well, I love this cover and I dont really understand why you tried to play down this cover.
August 15th, 2010
at 10:03 pm
I’m on the fence about the covers. While it’s great to have a cover of Vogue China representing Asian and specifically for some of the models Chinese beauty, I would have rather them shot 5 different covers with each model as the focus and did something more artistic then the Sears model profile. Other then that the cover on the right is the best and the cover on the left should have had a different colored background to highlight them better because the white makes them look washed out.

I love LiuWen ,I am a Chinese
We’re proud of you
Forgive my English is very poor
