She has starred in campaigns for Calvin Klein, Valentino and Diesel, as well as featuring on the covers of Chinese Vogue and Elle. But now Chinese supermodel Fei Fei Sun can add pioneer to her lengthy CV. The model has become the first Asian to feature on the cover of Vogue Italia – a groundbreaking development for the fashion glossy.
In the UK, Sun has been photographed for the cover of i-D magazine and has featured in fashion editorial in British Vogue.
The model also made her international catwalk debut in Britain when she walked for Mulberry and up-and-coming designer Nathan Jenden in September 2009.
Since then Fei Fei Sun has walked for a veritable who’s who of big names, with appearances on the Vivienne Westwood, Miu Miu, Dries van Noten and 3.1 Phillip Lim catwalks among many others.
The model has also landed starring roles in some of the biggest beauty campaigns on the planet, including becoming the face of DKNY’s Be Delicious fragrance and Calvin Klein’s One.
Although Sun and her compatriot, fellow Chinese supermodel Du Juan, have previously featured in Italian Vogue editorial, this is the first time that an Asian model has made the cover of the Italian glossy.
French Vogue was the first European magazine to include an Asian model on its cover, when Du Juan appeared on an issue in 2011.
