I like clothes - I like to play with clothes. I like DIY; I like to make outfit.
The challenge for me, and for Asian models in general has been convincing editors, stylists and photographers that we can have mass appeal, but Asian, especially Chinese models have become a stronger presence. Just a season or two ago, there weren't many models for me to talk with backstage in my native Mandarin. Now I usually have no trouble finding someone at any show.
People in my hometown seldom called me piao liang, [beautiful] because my smaller eyes were a far cry from the wide irises of the most beloved television actresses.
I never wore high heels in my hometown.
Romantic music really stirs my soul. And, of course, I love Chinese music it makes me feel closer to home.
My favourite city is Miami. It's very fresh and the beach is sunny.
