Horst Diekgerdes for Vogue China For the past two decades, VOGUE China has launched countless new faces onto the international runway, shaping both global fashion and the perception of feminine beauty in China. Today, a new generation of Chinese models is redefining the scene with fresh interpretations of Eastern aesthetics. To celebrate its 20th anniversary, VOGUE China presents seven rising talents, Chen Yang, Kang Sijia, Li Hejia, Ouyang Ying, Wang Canlan, Zhang Jiahui, and Zhang Peng, in a tribute that revisits iconic eras and blends retro and modern style, highlighting the promise of China’s next wave of models. The series was photographed by German artist Horst Diekgerdes, whose imaginative, often surreal imagery has defined major campaigns and filled the pages of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and beyond. His work continues to inspire with its personal vision and timeless modernity.
