Vogue China

Vogue China editor-in-chief Margaret Zhang debuts her first cover — September 2021 ‘New Beginnings’ — and fashion story starring 19 year-old dancer Fan Jinghan. Led primarily by female creatives, Zhang enlisted young Chinese photographer from Xinjiang Ma Hailun [IG] to shoot Fan Jinghan wearing Johannes Warnke at a particular sunrise moment in a mountain desert of western China.

The cover appears on Vogue China Instagram — stripped of its past — as Zhang now takes the helm of creative leadership, with newly-named fashion director Audrey Hu. / Makeup by Valentina Li; hair by Zhou Xueming
