Liu is definitely one of the most beautiful asian faces beside Lii and Kiki. Really gorgeous girls. I’m liking their facial expressions. And their face shapes.

Beautiful. Makes me think that if Daul Kim was still alive she would have made a perfect addition to this story.

Du Juan is literally the most beautiful Asian woman I’ve ever seen in my life

I agree, Liu is one of the most beautiful faces in the world. Its not even perfectly placed like Tao, but something is just there, the more you see it, it gets more compelling it becomes.

I especially adore Liu Wen and Tao Okamoto. In my opinion, Tao’s facial features are the most symmetrical of all. Talking about modern girls with attitude!

These women are BEAUTIFUL. They are so model in their own way! DU is a legend kind of! She broke many barriers and is was everywhere before. She exploded right away and shes fading a little! She better come back with a bang and change her hair to what is was before!! Lui and Tao So versatile! New girls are also hot! kiki has potential to be iconic!!! Asian with a Cindy Crawford mole = memorable!!!

ASIAN MODELS ARE TOTALLY GOING TO ROCK THE RUNWAYS BY THE NEXT FEW YEARS!!! BTW, Shu Pei was mentioned elsewhere in Vogue China and was on the cover of Vogue China with Mirte Maas!
January 18th, 2010
at 6:42 am
they’re fab but am i the only one who thinks the fashion world only take on one type of Asian looks? these girls are cool but they’re not classified as ‘beautiful’ in Chinese ppl’s eyes. ask any Chinese in street they’ll say this look is ‘ugly’ since chinese don’t like these type of eyes. i think it’s great that the western fashion world recognises the tranditional oriental narrow eyed beauty, but they should also appriciate different type of asian beauties, and respect the ‘asian beauty’ through real Asian’s eyes!!!

these girls are fabulous! WERQ IT!!! ping and liu wen are so classicaly beautiful. they are elegance personified. love the spreaD

@AsianAngel… this is published in Chinese Vogue so obviously chinese people do think they are beautiful
January 20th, 2010

Liu&Du are most beautiful in this field…
but i’m very interest with Danni Li…..
January 20th, 2010

im all for liu wen, she made history for asian in model business coz not only she walk on almost every runway shows but also the first girl to be on victoria secret show !!!

Kiki Kang’s lips–OMG–looks like they’ve been stung by some sort of killer bees.

I’m Japanese and often see this kind in Vogue Nippon.
Tao, Ai Tominaga, Anne Watanabe, and other Tokyo collection models are on the list.
Most Japanese don’t think they are beautiful because their faces are definitely FUNNY.
They are just like…Noh actors.

@AK
Thats how fashion works, Dahling……A celebration of Beauty’s Uniqueness and quirkiness….WEstern World has a different standard, I guess.
Cheeers!

@peterModelObsesse,
can’t agree with u more…honestly,we chinese won’t consider any of these girls(from China)…”beautiful”…I mean seriously, these girls would absolutely share fair or even worse comments on their apperance. guess Western World do have a different standard.
anyway, I still love them, specially DuJuan, and I’m glad that they could attract so many western people ^ ^ they are awesome!
March 13th, 2010

When I first looked at these pictures and the comments, I was like…huh? Viewing the girls in asian people’s perspectives, most would say they are too ordinary, or even bad looking. However, in Western people’s eyes, I guess they are considered exotic and beautiful…I don’t know…but I’m proud of them

Cannot get over how BEAUTIFUL Du Juan is! She has such grace, poise and her loveliness is made all the more striking by the simpleness of the styling. Liu looks gorgeous as always obvs, though this isn’t her at her best. Tao is stunning, and I’m liking the new girls. Though I think they should’ve included Xiaoyi Dai, Hyun Yi Lee and a few others whose names have escaped me.
@ AsianAngel: I don’t agree at all. The fashion world only take one type of Asian girl? Can you honestly say Du, Liu and Kiki all look the same? Also you just contradicted yourself by saying they are cool and then that ‘all chinese people would think they were ugly.’ These girls are great, leave it at that. Let’s not bring race into everything.

Was it only me that clicked to see Daul’s face in this post?
I miss her in fashion shoots.
RIP Daul Kim.
