Tao Okamoto & Liu Wen in Editorial for (US) W Magazine, July 2010

I rarely write commentaries about fashion editorials but I really have to say something about the recent development at W Magazine.

It is always exciting to see Asian models in editorial stories because they are usually more interesting than ad campaigns. But these photos below are an endemic example of the boring, lackluster stories that (US) W Magazine has been serving up for the last couple of years. I stopped my subscription to the magazine about 3 years ago when the magazine went downhill.

That said, change is in the air. All the senior editorial staff at W Magazine has been replaced (except Alex White) by Stefano Tonchi, formerly of T Magazine (NY Times Style Magazine), who took over the helm about two months ago. The first issue with Mr. Tonchi as editor-in-chief is expected to come out in August 2010. But the new W Magazine will be less fashion focus, more general issue like Vanity Fair and well, T Magazine. I don't know how I feel about it yet. Will leave my judgement until I see the August issue.

Emma Pei in Editorial for L'Officiel China, July 2010

Emma Pei has been keeping a fairly low profile since the beginning of the year. I think she is absolutely gorgeous and am ecstatic to see her back with a great new editorial in the July 2010 issue of L'Officiel China.

Hyun Yi Lee Editorial for Vogue China, July 2010

Again, BRAVO! to Vogue China for using Asian models who are not Chinese nationals in their editorial pages. Hyun Yi Lee and fellow South Koreans, Hye Park and Han Jin; Japanese models, Tao Okamoto and Ai Tominaga; and Russian Eugenia Mandzhieva have all appeared in the pages of Vogue China.

This is amazing and worth noting because Vogue Korea and Vogue Nippon rarely use Asian models outside of their countries. Tsk! Tsk!

BTW, has Lakshmi Menon ever been in Vogue China, Vogue Korea or Vogue Nippon? If not, Ms. Angelica Chang (editor-in-chief of Vogue China), please put an Indian girl in your magazine. If you do that, you will surpass Anna Wintour in my books. :)
