With 24 New York shows behind her and walking on almost every coveted London runway so far, Tao is no doubt one of the most sought after asian models in the industry right now. Adding on to the hype is the Vogue Nippon November issue all dedicated to her, with editorials shot by different renown photographers.

As for the cover, I would love it more if she is not wearing shades, but kudos to the Vogue Nippon team for not covering her face with any of the letters.

I’m actually very disappointed with the cover. It looks amateurish and you can hardly recognize Tao in the photo.

I will have to wait till I see the editorials inside to comment more on it. Vogue Nippon has never been a favorite of mine. I find it terribly boring and derivative.
