This looks exactly like something Rila Fukushima did some time back (can’t remember for what publication) with her skin also painted brown… I find this revelation slightly disappointing. I do love Liu Wen, however.

I think this is gorgeous, and does anyone know if those red lace up boots are opening ceremony?

The make up looks dirty and the styling make this look more like a costume shoot instead of a fashion one. BUT LIU WEN’S MODELING ELEVATES THE OVERALL QUALITY! LOV HER!

I don’t really like this, it’s shallow and lacks substance. I can appreciate the layering and juxtaposition of the natural and manufactured, and to some extent even the paradox that this lends itself to- that everything is derived from nature. But it’s too gimmicky and Liu Wen looks like she’s taking herself too seriously. Everything contradicts itself.

I don’t like Liu, she needs to work on her mouth, when she opens it, chin looks really weak. Styling and make-up are great, so are non-studio locations, i wish there was a story behind this shoot rather than simple clothes demonstration.

I think this looks a little like too shots mixed together that she has already done!

It could have been great, if the stylist hadn’t tried so hard! And I really don’t get the studio shots mixed with the ones shot outdoors. Hoped they all were out.
